GQue BBQ Lone Tree

Had some great food during my business trip to Denver this week but specifically wanted to call out my experience at GQue…the food, amazing…arguably some of the best wings I’ve ever had and those that know me know how many wings I’ve had in my life time…the sausage and onion rings were delicious and the lemonade machines were refreshing and a bit of a throwback…the vibe of the place is fun but there was an employee, Tommy, seemed to be doing a bit of everything, including running our food to us and engaging with us…he seems to genuinely love his job…if he lived in Huntsville I’d wish he worked at my restaurant! Kudos, Tommy!

7/12/25- To start 2 sandwiches with water to drink and no sides were $28. The meat was bland and you had to drown it in sauce to give it any flavor. The bread was too soft to hold up to any weight and then the side facing the meat was over toasted to the point it wouldn't soak up any sauce. The bbq sauce was way to watery to really stick like bbq should. Overall way over priced for less than average bbq. I recommend skipping. You can get better food in the food court.

Okay, full disclosure: I'm a barbecue snob. The best barbecue on the planet is in Memphis, TN. And I'm eminently qualified to make that statement. That being said, I have to be as honest as I know how to be about this barbecue: it needs some smoke and char. It's dense and moist with an excellent texture, but it has no personality. My dining partner, my connoisseurial equal, spied a cook in the prep area taking some charred bits from a cut of meat and (horrified gasp) throwing it away. I couldn't bear to turn around and actually witness this myself. This just left our barbecue generic in flavor. The sauces to add were greatly needed. I liked the Hottish sauce, a perfect balance of sweetness and heat. The onion rings were decent, with a tempura like coating that is not my personal favorite (I prefer a dredge through cornmeal batter), but were a serviceable large portion. They have Pepsi products to wash it down with, and apparently a bar, but it was unclear to me how to get to it. Through the filter of a busy Saturday lunch crowd I was treated to a soundtrack that included The Offspring, Jane's Addiction, and The Violent Femmes, to name a few songs. This made for an upbeat experience. You'll have to park at the mall, so good luck with that. I want to go back and get a wider sampling, but as far as the fundamentals go, GQue has just that--basic barbecue.

If there were more comfortable seating options and it was a true table service restaurant this would be 5 stars. Those Cajun citrus wings, fall off the bone. They have a rich smoky, sweet yet spicy flavor that dances around your pallet. The pulled prom sandwich is a monster. I notice that earlier in the day it is less dry but still amazing. The only complaints I have are no table service ( for the price point I shouldn't feel like I'm walking into a freaking Chipotle) and no fresh onions!! That is sacrilegious when it comes to BBQ. TRY the mustard sauce, it's amazing.

Very impressed by this restaurant. They have a BBQ place here as well as delicious ice cream. They had a good selection of gluten free options, I didn't react to any of their ingredients and the staff was very knowledgeable. (Plus this is right by the Park Meadows Mall, which is pretty awesome)

What an incredible experience! 😍🔥 I had the pleasure of enjoying GQue BBQ at Mile High Stadium during a Broncos game, and let me tell you—it was next-level delicious! 🏈🐷 I went all in with their barbecue pork nachos and bacon-wrapped chicken skewers with chips, and every bite was a flavor explosion. 💥 The nachos were loaded with smoky, tender pork, gooey cheese, and the perfect toppings—pure BBQ bliss! 🧀🍖 The bacon-wrapped chicken skewers? OMG, unreal. Juicy, savory, and wrapped in crispy bacon goodness—absolutely mouthwatering! 🥓🍗 Even though this review is for their Lone Tree location (since I can’t find the one at Empower Field), I know GQue BBQ brings their A-game no matter where they are! 💯 Pairing this incredible food with the excitement of a Broncos game? 🐴🙌 That’s the kind of combo that makes your day unforgettable. If you haven’t tried GQue yet, you’re seriously missing out! ⭐ Highly recommend grabbing some BBQ and treating yourself—you won’t regret it! 🔥🎉

REVISION: Even though I told the manager it was unnecessary, after visiting he wanted to offer me a full refund for the brisket. It wasn't requested, yet freely offered. I will use these funds to try them again. Clearly, these folks have a strong desire to make great food. He researched the time of my order so he could consult with the exact pit boss to improve quality control. First class management. The brisket was waaaay overdone and dry. For $33/lb you should not need a sip of water to get each bite down. The ribs were good, but not superb. The wings were excellent.

Food was good, however, it is so expensive and you don’t get very much. I paid $17 (without tip) for this. The side used to be a bit bigger. I was ok paying a bit more for good food and good portions, but when this made me a sad. I feel like I got ripped off pretty hard, especially because you can go to higher end restaurants, get better food and bigger portions for similar money.

This order was a delivery. Food was very tasty, some of the best BBQ we have had in the area. Will be heading to the restaurant in the near future to experience the restaurant.

For all you mall walkers and undecided people look no further! Check out GQue BBQ! I have been here on numerous occasions and it's constantly packed. The staff is super upbeat, welcoming and on point! Even their drink machine rivals that of a certain fast food place with golden arches. I ordered a brisket sandwich on a snowy Sunday. Remember to ask for your toast, onions and pickle if you so desire. Its a freebie and mighty delicious! No wonder they are also located at Mile High, Lakewood and Westminster. This place simply rocks. Been to the other locations and Lone Tree really holds it down. I enjoy the welcoming vibes, attentive of everyone and ice cream! Yes, you should check out that section before you leave. During the summer they will hand out samples. After you're done with your meal, if ice cream doesn't suit your fancy head next door to LaTea for boba! Back to GQue though, great experience all around!

As always the best BBQ! Amazing ribs, juicy brisket, and the smoked wings are to die for! Great to take and go or to have at the restaurant. Great staff always friendly, and helpful.

So today I had the Chicken Wings for lunch and man were they ever good. I ordered and received my membership credit. I had the 5 Wings and a side of Apple Coleslaw. Within a few minutes my order was served and it was a delicious as it looked. While eating the manager of the ice cream store came by with samples to try. I selected the Salted Caramel Oreo Perfectly balanced & utterly divine, the Salted Caramel Oreo ice cream combines house-made caramel with Oreos & sea salt. I then went over to the Ice Cream Farm and ordered a double scoop to go. Simply outta this world and a great finish to another amazing meal at GQue BBQ.

Absolutely amazing ribs, wings, beer and whiskey. Always a Fathers Day and birthday choice. Great service always.

Quick service and good prices! We came here for wings and beers and got the mango habanero as well as their buffalo wings! Honestly, we are not fans of buffalo sauce but it was a recommendation and so we tried it and loved it! It's not your typical tangy sauce you get at BWW. Really enjoyed it! Mango habanero was their sauce of the week and my husband is not a fan but he really enjoyed these! We got the Mexican lager and magnolia! Located just outside park meadows mall!

We were in the mood for BBQ and were walking around the mall area and stumbled across this hidden gem! We noticed the reviews and wanted to try it out. The location is right outside the main mall entrance area, and is pretty easy to find. Parking will be a little difficult since it located in the corner. Once we arrived we could smell the BBQ and also sweetness in the air from the ice cream shop that shares the area with the business. We were quickly greeted and the service was great! I ended up ordering everything. Pound of Brisket, Pork, 1/2 Rack Pork Ribs, and 2 Sausage Links. For sides 1 Qt of Mashed Potatoes, double of Mac, and a side of Fries. Everything was reasonably priced and they even had military discount. We even got a free Pork Sandwich with our meal for signing up with the business. Everything was amazing and we highly recommend this BBQ spot!!!

Having just returned from my favorite BBQ spot back in Texas, I'm about ready to say that GQue's ribs are better than what I get in my former home state. The half rack is a lot of meat, and it's juicy, succulent, and delicious. You don't even need extra sauce with it. My daughter got 1/4 lb. each of the chopped brisket and turkey this time, and she liked them both. I couldn't get her to commit to which she liked better, but she said they were both good. The onion rings and fries are the best two sides in our opinion. It's a good amount of food, at a reasonable price, with friendly service.

My wife and I decided to pick up some ribs. Seasoned fries, and beans. The ribs were very meaty, tender, and flavorful. We hadn't tried the seasoned fries before, I thought that they were tasty, but my wife thought that they were a little too salty. The beans were very good. G-que has always done a great job whenever we would eat there. We ordered online and the food was hot and ready on time. We have always enjoyed ourselves when eating at the Park Meadows location and the take out today was very pleasant as well. I was greeted at the door by name, assuming that the order was for me. I highly recommend G-que for a great BBQ experience. Scott

The restaurant is located outside of the Park Meadows Mall. Parking is dependent on how busy the mall is. You can call and order by phone, pay and pull up to pick up your order. The atmosphere is fun for a BBQ place. There are tables and booths. There's an ice cream shop inside the BBQ place, I also recommend trying. The brisket is yummy, the wings are great too. They offer sandwiches and lots of side dishes like beans, and Mac n cheese. The iced tea is good too. The staff is usually friendly. It's usually a good experience.

Ok guys let's start off with how much I love this place, every item is amazing and delicious, also the food is a little pricey but worth every penny. Also has my favorite macaroni and cheese in the world. Also service is really quick and great. Amazing ambiance with TV's. Highly recommend for anyone in the area

I've been here a few times and the meats and sauces are pretty good. It gets a five star for BBQ in Colorado. I'd like to see a few more options on the sauces but otherwise if you go here you should be pretty satisfied.

I would give a zero for this review if I could. This is the third time that I went there and every time they fail to give me a brisket that I requested. it's dry or super fatty. I wonder how they get to open a few locations with this quality.

Love me some Gque Texas style bbq. This location is in a strip mall so you do have to find parking and walk to the outdoor shops to find it. They have a smaller shop so when it's busy you may have to wait for seating. They have an extensive menu. It's priced a little high but avg for the area the shop is located in. Their meat is always tender and flavorful. I love their Sasquatch sandwich and could bathe in their cheese sauce. Their Mac n cheese is also to die for. They also have regular weekly special summer menu items like burnt ends that are always great if you can catch them when they have the specials. If your looking for good bbq in the area this will hit the spot!

This place is fast casual bbq. The flavor is amazing, but it is a tad overpriced. The parking is also weird for this location since it's in villas of Park Meadows, you'll have to park in the main parking then walk up. The staff is super friendly. Coming from Texas, this is some of the best BBQ I've had here. Worth a try!

Great American bbq place with good prices and location. I got the beef brisket and was not disappointed at all! The beef was soft and the sauce was perfect with it. The French Fries were fire as well and I would recommend anyone to try this restaurant.

Welp the food isn't bad it isn't wow either Gque is a nice looking bbq restaurant in the mall here. Place was busy and line moved okay. Order at front and they'll bring your order. The food tastes somewhat fabricated and chain like (Dickeys or Brothers). Brisket was chopped and texturally blah. The ribs had a nice flavor and good caramelization (def dinky ribs). Onion rings were weird and had a curly fry texture Great Pepsi custom drinks If you're shopping around here lunch is fine but I wouldn't drive far to try

Always great service and great food! We have a Traeger at home so we don't go out for BBQ as often as we used to, but we love GQue. The monthly wing club is a great deal whether for a snack or a meal on a weekly basis. We've fully enjoyed all the food we've tried here the last several months.

Food, staff and service are always spot on! They have great BBQ and specials and it has always been hot and quick. Highly recommend!!

fabulous BBQ and ribs were as tender as can be-love it! The onion rings are the best too! The rewards make it more affordable...

After years of struggling with subpar BBQ in the Denver Metro area, we have been delightfully surprised with GQue BBQ! These guys know BBQ! The first step is quality meats that have also been Butchered and portioned Properly! Ribs done right should leave nothing in your plate but a clean bone! No grissle no cartilage, no sinew, etc...The second step is proper smoking with the tight wood and temperature and Duration of cook. The third step is balanced BBQ Sauces!! Finally someone fugured out how to make all affordable fir both the customers and the Owners! Reducing the overhead of the business in a cafetteria style is Genious! Restaurant Sit down style was TOO expensive for everyone. The staff is Great too! A little southern charm goes a long way! And the awesome rewards for members is also Genius! It is so smart to it this way because it gets the customers a lot of incentive ti return and this way, we get out needed dose of BBQ while the business can thrive on repeat customers! Thank You Thank You Thank You! PS The best darn onion rings we have ever had too!!

First time here and was impressed with the friendly service and tasty food. Brisket sandwich was overflowing with meat. Mac and cheese side was yummy. Three different sauces for your taste - I really liked their Gold (zesty mustard sauce). Reasonably priced and open until their meat is gone.

So I tried this place lastnight from a suggestion from my coworker and it did not disappoint! The food was fresh flavorful and made with care! So glad I gave GqBBQ a try and I will be spreading the word and definitely making this a repeat dinner spot, thank you so much to the kind hardworking staff , from one foodie to another

These guys deliver, great bbq all day, weekly specials, everything is delicious I love coming here, super chill and the staff is on point.

The bbq family feast was delicious! The brisket literally melts in your mouth and the ribs are so tender that the meat falls off the bone! The shredded pork is very flavorful and tender! Overall, I highly recommend!

Delicious fast-casual. Good value. Ice cream made on sote for dessert. Staff was friendly, restaurant was clean would return and recommend

Great tasting bbq, first time my family had it. Tenderfoot brisket and great tasting ribs. Fast and friendly service.

Great local Colorado Award winning Barbecue! Totally deserves championship for best local Barbecue! Had pulled pork sandwich, apple coleslaw and baked beans! Yummy!

4-stars (on a Colorado BBQ scale...this ain't Texas) Located just outside the south side of he Park Meadows mall, park at Macy's and walk over (tip: stay away from the parking near Cheesecake Factory as it is more challenging). Like most BBQ joints, you order at the counter and then grab a table. I have eaten here at least a dozen times and find their version of BBQ to be consistent and slightly unique. With all of those visits, however, I keep coming back to the pulled pork sandwich with slaw on top. It's never dry and has been properly rested to absorb the layered flavors into the meat. Ribs are another fav. The sauce is not too candy like and ribs regularly receive the right heat to give a few end bits that burnt ends quality. Dry-rub Wings are yummy but I can think of at least four other places near by to get better wings. I have to admit, a BBQ joint at the mall seems like a recipe for a going-out-of-business sign in the window. However, GQue has proven they have staying power, and I think that is a credit to the ownership, consistency out of the kitchen and reasonable prices.

Food and atmosphere are quite lovely. Swanky little location in the heart of Park Meadows. You can sit by the window and watch all the Lone Tree socialites try to parallel park their G-Wagons. Good times. I ordered the brisket sandwich with the side of fries. The flavor of the meat was delish - although ice cold. Don't know if that's what they were going for, but it would have been nice to have some warm meat. That's what she said. Fries crispy - nothing special. My only other pet peeve- the BBQ sauce bottles are on the table and you have to imagine how many 100s of people have squeezed them and then grabbed their sandwich and fries. Kind of an OCD germaphobe nightmare happening for me. Lots of finger licking going on around me - and then grabbing those bottles to add some extra drizzle. Yuck.

I have been eating here for a few years now. It used to be my hidden gem. But it isn't so hidden anymore. Glad to see them doing so well because it really is great food!!! Even busy, the customer service, food flavor and speedy service haven't changed. I will keep going back because of this....line or no line. And as always, couldn't skip the incredible ice cream!!! Thanks!!

This is fantastic BBQ and always on point. The wings are out of this world and the ribs melt in your mouth. BBQ sauce is perfect and the sides are all good. Ordered my Thanksgiving Turkey and sides the other day, we can't wait!

Decided to stop by to try their award-winning BBQ...and it did not disappoint. We had the pulled pork sandwich and onion rings while we were there, and got some jalapeno cheddar sausage to go. The sandwich was really good! The pork was fall apart tender and the green apple slaw is a perfect addition (you have the option to say no slaw when ordering...but DON'T). On the table are squeeze bottles of both regular and spicy BBQ sauce along with ketchup. We ended up making a mix of the sauces and actually added the onion rings to the sandwich thanks to my son's brilliant idea...genius move for sure! TIP-When you sign up for their emails you get a qr code for a free pork sandwich. After using the code we then received another code...this time for a free 5-piece order of wings. Can't wait to try em!!

Tasty bbq! I've had their Sasquatch sandwich as well as their pulled pork sandwich. Both very good and would get again. The meat is tender and flavorful. The prices are reasonable and the portions are perfect. They have different bbq sauce options to choose from, depending on how sweet, savory, or spicy you prefer your meat. The last time I went there my sandwich was a little cold, however they were extremely busy. They are always friendly and the service is good. However when I have gone it has been busy, so expect a line and limited tables. Excited to try their loaded potato, as several tables had it and it looked amazing.

GQue BBQ is the best and is our favorite BBQ in Colorado. if you have not tried it, this is a must visit as you will not be disappointed. Everything we have had has just been delicious! The staff is always so polite and helpful and the variety is great.

Online orders are consistently always messed up. One item missing when order was delivered. I called store and she was short with me and said just come get it. I did not have a car at the time so had it delivered, but Door Dash driver could not speak English, needed phone app for translation. I don't get money back, only Door Dash credits that haven't shown up in my app. Go somewhere else for bbque.

You can never go wrong when you come to GQue! The ambiance is hopping and the staff is always friendly. It was a treat to see my dear friend Jason who happens to be the owner and one of the nicest people you could ever meet. He treated me to a pint of their homemade ice cream while I was picking up some takeout for Mr. H. I snagged a Sasquatch for him and an order of the Dry Rub Wings for later. (They are my favorite and I couldn't resist.) Definitely one of my favorite spots in town!

the bbq was good, however the customer service was not. The employees just talked... talked.. and talked... but never actually do anything and are not helpful. I'd love to go back but the staff working there make me say no thanks...

This is a favorite spot for our family, with good bbq, amazing sides and a locally made ice cream shop in store to finish the night off. Staff is always friendly and helpful, food comes out fast, fresh and flavorful. Dining spots inside and out. Now bbq is always a bit more expensive than standard fare, but this place makes it worth it. Great Mac and cheese, cheese fries and onion rings to top it off. Definitely join the rewards club, as they treated me to an amazing meal for my birthday! The ice cream next door is worth visiting whether you eat the bbq or not! Local, fresh, amazing flavors and worth the calories.

I ordered several sandwiches and sausage jalapeño links and ribs and Mac and cheese for my son's bday dinner at his request. Everything was fabulous! When I picked it up, I asked if there was extra bbq sauce and they promptly happily added some. We all loved it!

Busy with limited seating but worth it. The brisket sandwiches are superb. The free bread is bland but it's free. Cole slaw isn't like most places has a bit more of a vinegar taste so if you like that you are good but it will be a love/hate thing for most. For your kids get a double sized mac and cheese they loved it and two kids can split the double size. They devoured it and my kids are picky. Star of the show for me were the dry rub wings. I am VERY picky about dry rub wings and these were fantastic. Got extra blue cheese for free and that was another plus. Overall just great.

Great food and service! The staff was so kind and walking around to see if anyone needed anything. Prices were on par to what I would normally pay. I will be eating there again soon.

Bought two of the fan feast specials for the Broncos/ Raider game. Eight adults and a bunch of grandkids (7). Probably could have gotten by with just one order, but everyone took some home. Wings, pulled pork, and sausage were all spectacular! Perfectly cooked, moist, meaty, and tasty. Not a fan of the apple coleslaw. I ate it and I saved the leftover slaw for later so let's just say it was okay. I placed my order the night before via the app with a scheduled p/u time of noon. They timed the preparation perfectly and I was taken care of at exactly noon. Yes, I would order again!

I love GQ bbq, the food is always fantastic. Service is super nice. I bought the rub and sauce to have at home.

We had a fantastic meal at GQue. The Sasquatch was excellent we did one with brisket and substituted pulled pork for the brisket in the other. Both were excellent!

GREAT COLESLAW!! Went right up to the counter to order. I ordered 1/4 pounds of brisket and chicken, green beans and coleslaw. Being barbecue, food came out fast as expected. Both meats were good but the brisket was definitely better. The special sauce was the better one. The green beans were seasoned nicely. The best part of this meal to me was the coleslaw. Many places choose a mayo based slaw so I appreciated seeing a vinegar based slaw. The level acidity was pleasant but could have used for apple. Overall, the place was good.

First time here at GQue BBQ. I have tasted small bites at various venues. Easy to order. They provide a table sign to bring ou your food. I got one of their Signature sandwiches, the Carolina made with pulled pork with apple coleslaw on top served in a brioche bun.They include a pickle spear. I got a side of pit smoked beans. I paired it all with a 16oz draft of Lone Tree Brewing Company Peach Pale Ale. A nice brew. The Pulled Pork was excellent and the coleslaw was crisp and not oversauced. I added their "Hottish" sauce and more as I ate. Their location just south of Park Meadows Mall is ideal for a quick bite while shopping. It was relatively quiet with light music being played. Besides fountain drinks & beer, they offer wine. Mostly Cavit, but also Woodbridge Cabernet Sauvignon. I also noticed they offer 2 oz pours of Bourbon and Whiskey. Their weekly special is a Brisket Philly cheesesteak. I will be back to try other sandwiches.

Food is fantastic and the service is top notch. Casual atmosphere. The loyalty club is bomb and inspires you to visit often. :-) You won't find better happy hour prices!

The BEST BBQ I have had since moving to CO 7 years ago! Highly recommend! Not a fancy place; and a bit noisy. But the beef brisket was worth it!
