Asian smokehouse fusing barbecue & Asian flavors; dogs welcome
"Combine Uchi with Franklin Barbecue and you get Loro, an Asian-Texan smokehouse where wedge salads are improved by brisket burnt ends, and pork ribs are bathed in a sweet chili glaze. Brave the wraparound patio with frozen drinks, because sometimes, the only cure to 100-degree heat is a gin-spiked brain freeze." - kevin gray
"This Austin export has quickly become a staple of East Dallas. It fuses Asian cooking and barbecued meats — think oak grilled snap peas in a kimchi infusion and crispy potatoes with miso mustard. One can also get a nice plate of baby back durac pork ribs or hot honey fried chicken." - Courtney E. Smith
"Drop in on Dallas’s outpost of the Asian smokehouse, born as the brainchild of chefs Tyson Cole and Aaron Franklin, even on a Monday. No reservations needed, dogs welcome on the outdoor porch, and it’s all made to share." - Courtney E. Smith
"In 2018, two Austin restaurant giants, Aaron Franklin of Franklin Barbecue and Uchi’s Tyson Cole, created an Asian smokehouse and bar called Loro in Austin. Since then, they have added two additional branches in East Dallas and Houston, and they are set to open two more restaurants (one each in Dallas and Houston) in 2022 and 2023. The fast-casual counter-service concept combines that award-winning Franklin barbecue with Asian flavors in dishes such as Curried Brisket Rice and Candied Kettle Corn (made with brisket burnt ends, togarashi, and sea salt)." - Cynthia Drake
