Post Oak Barbecue

This was some amazing Texas BBQ. This is definitely competing with some KC BBQ. The service was good , nothing stellar. The food took about 10-15 minutes to come out to our table. The food was very good. I had a pulled pork Texas style sandwich along with their baked beans and French fries. All of the food was fresh and tasted amazing. I am definitely coming back here if I happen to be in area.

This was our second time coming to Post Oak BBQ. The staff is amazing, polite and friendly. The staff goes out of their way to make sure your dining experience is good. The first time we came we got two meat by the pound options with a side which was really good. This time we got the loaded baked potato and the dirty mac which wasn’t my favorite but meat itself is good as always. Would definitely go back and get the meat and side option

Took advantage of a free BBQ pork sandwich offered. Drove 30 min to get there. Great Texas atmosphere. BBQ is the best we've found in Colorado. Never found superb BBQ since we've been here since 1979. So we were HaPpY!! . Best fried okra we've ever had. Very peasant staff Will definitely return.

One of the best BBQ places in the country as far as I’m concerned. Ribs were fall off the bone. Mac&Cheese was creamy and rich. Fried okra was delectable. And all the sauces were fantastic. Get the banana pudding for dessert. Hard to find a criticism here. 9.4/10

This place is so good! Im from Texas and this BBQ reminds me of home. Great customer service, quick, and food was top tier. Decent prices too! Highly recommend.

What an experience it was!!! The manager gave us a tour to see the pits. So cool. Food was amazing! Pork Belly is a must and the best were the beans… Enjoy! Thanks Cole!

Post Oak almost lived up to its hype! The dry rub wings and Texas pork ribs were delicious, and the brisket tacos were finger licking scrumptious. The brisket, which is touted as the star of the show was shockingly disappointing: it appeared to have been left under a heat lamp for several hours. It was extremely dry and unappealing~ we didn't eat it. The pulled pork sandwich was quite dry as well, but a soaking of bbq sauce remedied that quickly. The margaritas were definitely on point: I could have had a couple of more if I didn't have to drive! The waitstaff was super friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming. I would recommend this place as a must stop on a trip to Denver.

Our group came on a Friday night. Getting a table took only a few minutes. The place is very loud. Brisket was pretty good. Sausage had great flavor but the texture was a little grainy. Burnt ends were drowned in sauce which led to a lack of flavor and bark. Pulled pork was good. All our sides were good. I would return for sure but feel there is better BBQ in the metro.

It's kind of wild to me that I've never actually dined inside the restaurant. The Tennyson neighborhood is one I've been frequenting since moving here in 2019. But y'all, this place slaps. Post Oak takes the simple and long standing traditions of Texas BBQ and brought it to Denver. Now BBQ is one of the most subjective foods out there and everyone and their mother has a strong opinion on it. I don't care what region it's from, I care if it tastes good. And I've never had anything that wasn't up to par over the years. We had family in town and it was birthday. It was also 10 days after having my first child, so we weren't really leaving the house too much. BBQ seemed like a crowd pleaser and boy was the crowd pleased! Ordered a little bit of everything. Brisket, pulled pork, pork belly, ribs, mac & cheese, pinto beans, and collard greens. WHAT. A. SPREAD. The tell of a great BBQ joint is if the meat AND sides live up to the hype. At Post Oak, you can expect both to be done correctly. The standouts: brisket (fatty), ribs, and collards. Excellent! The surprise: The pork belly! So we had actually ordered another protein and they were out of it. The staff was insanely on top of it and texted me (they had my number through online ordering) if they could replace it with another. I wouldn't normally consider pork belly to be a BBQ must, but wow this was exceptionally well done! When it was all said and done I think it was $120 with tip. For 5 of us, $24 per person. For the quality and hospitality, it's worth every penny. Love me some Post Oak!

Amazing! Order up front then find a table, wasn't difficult on a weeknight. Food comes out fast and fresh! The corn biscuits were AMAZING, but as well everything else. We loved the pulled pork with the OG BBQ sauce and the spicy BBQ wings. There's also a full bar and plenty of TVs playing sports for a sports bar feel.

Got this place delivered and it was amazing! It came in less than 35 minutes which is always a plus. I got the 3 taco option with 1 pulled pork 1 brisket and 1 pork belly. I genuinely don't know which was the best. They were all sooo flavorful with a crazy good char! The tacos came on a soft delicious tortilla. There was nothing on the tortilla, just the meat, which usually I wouldn't want but when the meat is this good I couldn't complain! They came with a side of pico but I didn't put any on. I did use the spicy bbq sauce that came with it, which was bangin! A nice touch of sweet and spicy! It came with the jalapeño coleslaw which I thought was good but not amazing, it was definitely missing something. Can't wait to try this spot again soon!

You cannot beat this barbecue in Denver! The meat is so tender and seasoned well. The sides we tried were all amazing. I loved the jalapeño mac!! They had a deal on margaritas that were delicious! It was pretty busy when we went, but they weren't sold out of too much stuff. Definitely come here if you're in the area!

I was visiting Denver and wanted to find a special barbecue restaurant. Post Oak Barbecue is very special. Located in a neighborhood with a great vibe and lots of dining options, Post Oak Barbecue was filled with happy people and employees. I had a King Sized Brisket sandwich with a side of Jalapeño Bacon Mac and Cheese. You'll need the fork not just for the incredible Mac and Cheese but for all the goodies that fall off your Brisket Sandwich. You don't want to miss a bite of that incredible meal.

What I ordered: -1/2lb USDA Prime Angus Brisket [5/5] -Dirty Mac with burnt ends [4/5] _ I visited Post Oak because I rarely have the chance to enjoy authentic American BBQ back in my hometown. After hearing so many great recommendations, I knew I had to give it a try! We ordered the 1/2 lb USDA Prime Angus Brisket, and it did not disappoint--juicy, tender, and paired perfectly with their flavorful sauces. We also tried the Dirty Mac with burnt ends, which was equally delicious. The service was fast, and the staff were both friendly and attentive. The ambiance inside is really cool, making it a great spot to hang out. I highly recommend giving it a try!

We love this spot - they run some great specials, but the barbecue is always consistently good - not to mention the sauces. We got the brisket tacos, fries, carolina style pulled pork sandwich, and fried okra. The pork sandwich and okra were the stars! If you are worried about parking we found some pretty easily on the side streets.

The initial experience coming in for the first time is a little confusing, but just keep walking and you'll find the menu up on the wall and you'll probably have plenty of time to read it and decide, since there is almost always a line. Order at the cash register and they will bring your order to your table. Similar situation with the bar, I like to peruse the selection at any bar I go to, but they kept insisting that I order at the register at the end of the bar. Great selection, but I had a little sticker shock at some of their hard to find top shelf hooch. Could be a good spot for someone from out of town. They did a good job making it look like an old west rugged boomtown bar. My only suggestion would be to mix up the music I must have heard John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High" about three or four times

It's been almost a year since my last visit. Everything was the same, especially the prices. No increases!! I had a $5 online coupon from Toast which is their payment processor. I sat at the bar and was served by Cassie. I ordered their house Cadillac Margarita with tequila and Grand Marnier. A nice smooth drink. Since it was Taco Tuesday, I got 3 BBQ tacos for the price of 2. You can select any of their meats. So I got the beef brisket, pulled pork, and smoked turkey breast in separate tacos. Each taco included my protein with slaw, house pico & happy sauce in a flour tortilla. I added a small order of okra but got a large at the same price and cowboy beans (pinto beans with beef). Cassie kept my water glass filled. Everyone at the bar appeared happy and talkative. Maybe it was the discounted Shiner Bock on draft and people trying to get a draft before happy hour ended at 6pm.

I read great reviews on Post Oak and was finally in the Denver area to give them a try. It was dumping in May and what better way to stay warm than bbq and booze?! We were lucky and snagged a seat at their beautifully decorated bar otherwise you'll order at the counter and find a seat at one of their tables. They had Superbad playing so we felt right at home. The service was super quick and the staff looked to be hard at work given it being packed inside due to the snow. The hubby and I tried a bit of everything; brisket sandwich, brisket tacos (my favorite), chicken wings that were unfortunately disappointing, corn muffins because how could you not, and the Mac n cheese also disappointing. Their house bbq sauces were a huge hit and could've been enjoyed with a straw. You can taste the love that went into each. Their beef ribs are on my list for the next visit. And be sure to check out their daily food and drink specials.

This place is great. The price is good considering it matches the portions given. The place is well kept--great vibe with awesome service. It's a place where you order and then sit down afterwards. Some of the food was really salty, other than that I would've given this place a 5 out of 4 stars but other than that nothing else to complain about. Great place. Will come back for a 2nd time.

Real bbq, brisket was cooked to perfection, try it before dumping sauce. Ribs were fall off the bone, finger licking good! No, I didn't lock my fingers but I wanted to, the ribs were awesome. Mac was ok, personally I like my southern Mac more dry. Corn bread was good, would have been great with some actual honey. Place was packed, I appreciated how they don't take your order until seating is available, the really streamline everything for how busy they are. Can't wait to come back!

Food is quite tasty and very well prepared . The price is bit on the high side even for bbq The staff demeanor has room for improvement . The guys at check out always seem to be in a rush even if no is behind me. Not very eager to educate patrons on menu item , which is main reason for lower score. If I'm paying 30-35 per person , I'd like a bit of patience and friendliness. Location is great, ambiance is that of way you can expect to a bbq joint .

While post oak is really good, I can't understand how they made the best bbq in the US and Pit Fein BBQ in Denver did not. Pit fein is basiclly an exact copy of true Texas bbq. Both spots are good, both should be on the list. Just because less people have heard of it shouldn't keep it off this list.

As a Texan, I know a thing or two about Texas BBQ and this spot is pretty damn authentic. We ordered some brisket, hot links, a loaded baked potato with burnt ends. I really enjoyed the variety of bbq sauce styles offered at the table. Seems like these guys really know what they're doing in the BBQ department. Everything was very tasty. We even got some banana pudding, but had to take it to go because we were so full from lunch! Surprise standout-- Brussel sprouts were out of this world delicious. I need that recipe ASAP. I won't share it, promise!

We saw this place while walking around looking for a good spot to eat and this place did not disappoint. We stood in line to look at the menu to choose our food which consisted of pulled pork tacos, fresh cut fries, and potato salad. The place was crowded but we found a table pretty quickly. Great restaurant when you're looking for a casual atmosphere and inexpensive prices.

Good experience at post oak, but they do sell out of their meats. 7pm for dinner and they only had 3 meats left to choose from. But sooo tasty! Three of us got a brisket sandwich. I preferred Texas style over Carolina style for sure. Buns were sturdy!! I hate soggy buns that fall apart. Brisket was sooo delicious. Wings were hella meaty and tasty-- spicy bbq wasn't too spicy but definitely still had a kick. Someone at our table also got sausage and loved it, and the chili with chips. For sides- Mac and cheese was just ok, mashed potatoes were amazing. Beans & collard greens were good too. Overall would recommend for bbq in the area and I will definitely comeback. I want to try the beef ribs on the weekends!

This place has a really really cool atmosphere, friendly staff and tasty barbecue. Definitely enjoyed my visit. I thought it might be a chain because they have gift cards at Costco, but they're actually a family owned spot, per their response to my original review. Anyway, check it out, it's good!

So good as always adding some more photos of this delicious food ! Excellent service again and just a great fun vibe !

Smoked meat fell right off the bone! Got the brisket (4/5), St. Louis ribs (5/5), mac and cheese (3/5), and brussel sprouts (2/5 was fried to a crisp). They had great bbq sauces to go with the meats and were super quick with service. A great casual meal!

I'm hooked. Post Oak Barbecue is officially one of my favorite restaurants in Denver. I strongly recommend coming on a Saturday or Sunday and ordering their beef ribs that are sold by the pound on the weekends only. Yes, these ribs are a bit pricey, but they are WORTH IT. The beef ribs are $35/pound, and for us this meant two of the smaller ribs coming out to 1.3 pounds. They also have larger rib bones, but since I was sharing with my mom we wanted to have our own. I loved the flavor on the beef ribs, and I felt they were good as-is, and didn't need any additional bbq sauce from the containers on the table. For sides, I recommend both the crispy Brussels Sprouts ($6) that are mixed in with a spicy aoili-like sauce, and the Jalapeno Cilantro Coleslaw ($5) unless, of course, you find cilantro tastes like soap. If you're getting the USDA Prime Angus Brisket ($15.50 for half a pound, $31 for one pound) you can choose if you want fatty cuts, lean cuts, or a combo of both. I went with the combination so that I could truly taste the difference, and I got 2 fatty and 2 lean pieces with the half pound order. I personally felt the lean cuts still had a good amount of fat on them, and the fatty cuts were too much for me personally, but the gentleman working there taught me that the fattier pieces are better for if you're planning on reheating it later. The staff is friendly, helpful, and embodied hospitable. I love how, right when you walk in the front door, you get to see them passionately cutting and weighing the meat. If you have questions, they're eager to jump in to assist. As you wait in line to order, you can peer through the glass to see the magic happen. After you're done ordering, the pickles with fresh dill, silverware, and water are all self-serve. It's a very laid back and comfortable space on a charming street in Mountain View. They have Edison bulk string lights hung back and forth across the ceiling, which is made of some form of metal tiles. They have a good amount of seating options, including a bar, regular tables, and two booths in the back. We were able to easily find free street parking, even on a weekend.

Wow! What a pleasant surprise! I found out about the free code for the Texas sized FREE bbq sandwhich you can get on their website but had no idea it would be so fantastic, and huge! From the moment I entered the restaurant, smiles, welcoming, and I decided to sit at the bar- the bartender was so friendly and helpful( Kara?) She was wearing a Metallica shirt. I decided to get a bunch of sides and I read about the brisket and figured I could bring leftovers to the hubby- and boy did I have leftovers! Portions were huge and everything tasted great! I got collards, fired okra, coleslaw, brisket and how could I not get gooey butter cake?! Amazing!!!

There was an instagram promotion for a free pulled pork sandwich. It was so good I would pay full price and you get a ton of meat on your sandwich. On the side we got the jalapeño mac and cheese which wasn't my favorite but still tasty. It was a bit runny for my taste.

Giving 5 Stars here! (Only second time I've given 5 Stars). Kassie was our server, great server! Incredible wings & ribs! This is the spot round' here folks- good drinks & great food Get out of Denver Traffic and get some!

Casual BBQ restaurant on Tennyson St. I got a free pulled pork sandwich for signing up for emails. The sandwich is normally $15. It was sizable and very good. I also got cornbread muffins with honey butter ($2). The muffins were somewhat moist and dense with actual pieces of corn. The honey butter tasted good but was sickenly rich and heavy

The ambiance is "Texas BBQ" - a basic, no-frills joint where you order your food at the BBQ counter, pick up a number, find a table, go to the bar for an adult beverage, and get served quickly. It's not fancy but comfortable. The king-sized pulled pork sandwich and ribs were both excellent - fall-off-the-bone ribs, well low and slow smoked, and perfectly spiced. There are three styles of BBQ sauce at the table and an array of extras like pickled onions to enhance the sandwich. The jalapeno coleslaw was unique, spicy, and delicious. The 3 PM to 6 PM Happy Hour offers $3 craft brew drafts from a good selection of microbreweries--a great bargain! The block sports an array of other restaurants and businesses - we had to park around the corner. Looking for fine dining? This isn't the place. Looking for genuine BBQ for dine-in or takeout by the pound - you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely the best brisket in Colorado during my first visit! Loved their baked potato. Could've used more sauce but was delicious

Texas BBQ! This place has a great variety of meats and their sides are awesome too! From ribs, to burnt ends (served on Fridays only), to pulled pork, you'll find your favorites and order extra to take away. Seating is open, and they have both indoor and outdoor areas. The service is set up where you just walk up to the counter, order, and take a number back to your table, so it's easy to find a table, enjoy your company and wait for your food. Service is fast and you get several choices of bbq sauces to top your meats. Go on a Friday to try their burnt ends and don't forget to order cornbread muffins with honey butter!

Best bbq experience in Denver, Colorado. The service is great and everyone is friendly. The food is on point great pulled pork bbq sandwich!!!

Came here for lunch and was not expecting much. Little did I know it was the best brisket I have had in a really long time. You order at the counter, pick a seat, and they bring your food out to you. Waiting for our food was pretty quick! We ordered: - brisket (amazing) - pork belly - Jalapeno-Bacon Mac & Cheese (didn't really care for this) - 2 Corn Bread Muffins (not good) I would definitely return for the brisket alone. Sadly I wish the corn bread and mac & cheese was good.

Pretty good bbq. We're from Utah and only order bbq from restaurants when in Texas but were starving after hiking and saw that Post Oak had beef ribs which we love so we came by. The beef rib was pretty good. Pork ribs were good. Our brisket was just okay. We enjoyed the mac and cheese and potato salad.

Fantastic bbq spot in the middle of Tennyson street. The guys serving were super helpful in pointing us in the right direction. The tacos were great, we got 2 brisket and 1 pork belly. 3 for price of 2 Tuesday was a fantastic deal. Both were amazing. I saw online if you sign up for their emails you get a free pulled pork sandwich and that was amazing too. The pickles and fries onions were a perfect match to the juicy pulled pork. We came at happy hour and drink prices were crazy good too.

Inconsistent is probably the best way to explain my experience at post oak. On my last visit the brisket was dry (same for burnt ends), cornbread cold, and service unfriendly at the cash register. This isn't always the case but seems more often than not we have a negative visit. The brisket is the real letdown as it's a Texas staple that should always be top notch. Could be the way they hold the briskets for service that draws out all the moisture. On a positive note Mac n cheese was great along with the Brussels sprouts. The location is convenient though with a busy atmosphere so draws a big crowd.

Stopped by on a busy Saturday and there was still plenty of seating, both inside and outside. I had brisket and pulled pork tacos - YUM. My partner had the BBQ sandwich. We both really enjoyed our lunch and will definitely be back. They offer a 30% military discount, which we really appreciated

I love everything about this place. The brisket is the best around, the service is friendly, and it has the feel of a small town, local barbecue spot. They just do everything exceptionally well.

This is not only the best barbecue I've had outside of Kansas City. It's some of the best food I've had since moving to Colorado. So glad I made it in for burnt end Friday, I'll be making the trip up from the Springs on a regular basis!

Food was awesome and staff was excellent! Huge, fall off the bone ribs. Loved the pulled pork sandwich with the crispy onions, delicious Mac and cheese and great bbq sauces. Good booze options- had some Wellers that was bomb! Can't wait to go back!

I had a craving for Mac and cheese and they had EXACTLY that. Service is amazing, they offer the best suggestions! Dirty Mac & Cheese -- Get this with the BRISKET, it pairs just perfectly Beans -- These were a pass, not a fan of the spices used Anyways, I definitely recommend y'all stop by and try out their BBQ while you're in the area!

Amazing place with the best service! We happened to walk by and saw they had my wife's favorite bourbon (Blanton's). When we went in, all of the bartenders were super helpful and friendly. The bar manager, Tim, noticed us checking out their whiskey selection and came over to chat. They had Blanton's AND Blanton's Gold, which is a super rare find. We got one of each. Since we finished the regular Blanton's bottle, Tim let us have the Blanton's keepsake bottle & bottle top. It was a very special moment! Bourbon lovers will understand. Thank you Tim and Post Oak! If we lived in Denver we would without a doubt be regulars, but even as out of towners we will be back!

Smoked turkey anyone? This place recently partnered with this app called GoodieBag where businesses post food at a discounted price. I used the GoodieBag app to make this purchase. They don't say specifically what you will be getting, just that it's meat :) Street parking available so make sure you read the signs. When I walked in I was greeted with a nice warm welcome :) The place smelled so good! I told the cashier I was here for my GoodieBag pick up and the guy turned around and grabbed something from the fridge behind him :) I asked what it was and he said turkey!! It was vacuum sealed so that was nice! I cut it open when I got back to work and OMG did it smell amazing! It was a smoked turkey with some seasoning/spices around the edges. It smelled amazing! I did a quick reheat in the microwave and it was still juicy and tasteful! I want to go back for lunch or dinner and try more of the menu :)

This place is officially my favorite barbecue in Denver! It gets crowded during peak hours, but the line moves fast, because people order at the counter and then wait for food to be taken out. My food was brought out within nearly 5 minutes after I ordered, so I can't get that ass and advantage if you are hungry My favorites of the meal: - Wings: crispy on the outside and tender inside. I love the seasoning on the skin. Wings are not too small either - which is already be beating some wing places in Denver. - Fries: cooked to perfection, and again, yummy seasoning - pickles: these are for free that you can get directly from counter, and I really liked the pickled onions. The vinegar flavor compliments heavy barbecue meat well - Turkey breast: it's very flavorful and relatively lighter - Brisket: loved the strong, smoky flavor! The fat under the skin brings a rich texture with the other parts, and the seasoning is well balanced, and not too salty - Barbecue sauces: I liked all of them. Some of them work better with turkey/chicken and some work better with the red meat like the brisket - Fried okra: perfect side to snack on This place has an authentic Texas barbecue vibe and food are really delivered up to reputation/worthy of long waiting line I will definitely include this place in my Denver local favorites and recommend it to friends and family !!

Nice bar/barbecue in a neighborhood new to me. Good service and above average ribs. I will definitely be back for more.

It's ok this visit. Definitely not as good as the first time. The cream corn, a favorite of mine, was lacking in flavor. The bbq was good but not great. The delivery was left near the sidewalk not at my door as requested or for that matter expected!

Go online to their website for a free pulled pork sandwich coupon! No strings attached - you can just get the sandwich for free if you'd like. I also got the jalapeño Mac too which we both enjoyed. The BBQ had a great smoked flavor & was tender. The macaroni had a slight kick to it and was very tasty overall. They also have great drink specials, I'd love to come back for a froze pitcher !!

Originally wanted to go to elsewhere but it was much further so came here after reading the reviews I'm a huge fan of KC bbq and I haven't found anything close to topping it. Unfortunately came on a day where burnt ends weren't sold because they only sell on a certain day. So ordered the brisket and pulled pork with brisket mac and cold slaw. To me, they weren't seasoned.... It was well done for sure but needed more flavor. Had to drench every bite with sauce. And also it was so fatty.., no fat was trimmed so many of my bites were overwhelming with fat. It's not the worst I've had cause it's moist but no flavor. The mac wasn't great but the cold slaw came in handy to break up the fat. Other than that, the cold slaw was pretty bland but refreshing

We came here with my in-laws when they were visiting over the holiday break and it was a crowd pleaser! My husband and I have been here several times before and have some favorites on the menu, including the dry rub smoked wings and brisket sandwich with Texas Style. With a party of four, we split ten wings, baked potato with brisket, a Texas style brisket sandwich, four cornbread and two sides. We had enough for all and leftovers for one meal the next day! The wings or brisket sandwich are my favorite; I love the toppings station in the back where I can get extra pickles and pickled onions. To drink, I got a whiskey sour which was very solid. I love going here and I especially love that our local Arvada Costco has gift cards to here - $75 for $100 of gift cards! Such a great deal. If I was being nit picky like super nit picky, the ranch and blue cheese containers that come with the wings could be Way smaller and less wasteful!

Omg... top notch BBQ. Reminds me of the top tier bbq joints I've been to in Austin (real Terry Black energy.) Pulled pork and brisket were to die for. Crazy moist in the best way. People here are so attentive and friendly. Drop everything and get this bbq today!

Post Oak is one of my go-to spots in Denver. Everything I've tried has been tasty, with the pulled pork Texas Style sandwich, the tacos, and the jalapeño-bacon Mac and cheese being my favorites. The food is on the pricier end, but quality is great, the food is usually ready fast, and I always leave full. Sign up on their site to get some freebies as well!

Really, good melt in your mouth and fall off the bone bbq. We ordered brisket, a beef rib, Mac and cheese, fried okra, and muffins. It's always very loud and an awkward layout so we prefer to get ours to go. The service is always friendly and helpful but the layout is cramped so order ahead if you can. Shuffling around in front of the soda machine, tables, or the bathroom is my least favorite part and only complaint. So I order ahead, grab my order to go and get to enjoy my tasty barbecue in the comfort of my home; perfect.
