Red Dog Saloon Soho

No complaints — wings are perfect and the burger was decent. All for a reasonable price. Ideal place to start an evening.

The food here is goooood, especially the brisket (my god!) but it is fairly pricey with some burgers at £15 and over. The drinks are good (margariiiiiitas) and price wise are standard for London (£8−10). The service was very friendly and food came within a reasonable time. The vibe inside is nice and chilled. Each table has 3 homemade sauces which are good and needed for some of the meats which are a bit dry (pulled pork). The place is good for what it is — I’ve had nicer but paid more for it, I’ve had worse but paid less. I would recommend if you’re in to your American BBQ!

We waited about 20 minutes for a table on a Friday night. Living in London, we’ve been missing some good ol’ American BBQ. We were blown away by the wings but disappointed with our brisket sandwiches (not enough meat, not hot). We’d give the wings 5 stars but the sandwich only 3.

From my experience at its Shoreditch site, I knew the beef brisket is pretty outstanding so that was exactly what I went for along with the pork ribs. And once again the brisket totally delivered on all fronts, the seasoning was perfect and the meat had a lovely richness to it, it was really moist at the same time, I could not fault it. The Pork ribs were inconsistent on the other hand, some parts were extremely dry and bland while other parts were very tender with a great sweet and savoury marinate dressing. I was a big fan of the burnt ends pie, the combination of the creamy and soft mash worked wonder with the powerful and bold taste of the beef.

We came here for lunch on a Saturday. The sweet & spicy wings are really good, cooked well and spicy without being too hot. The service was also pleadant. Kopparberg cider beer was also really good it comes in a pint bottle.

Get ready for meat sweats! Not a place to take vegeterians. Cosy little joint with good service. We were a group of 7 for Friday lunch and managed to get a table after a short wait. Probably need to run a marathon now after eating so much beige, but worth it.

If you like meat and U.S. BBQ then this is the place for you. Portions are huge, I opted for a combo of brisket & ribs with a side of okra fries and hot links and struggled to consume even a third of the platter. The brisket was tender and ribs flavourful, the okra fries were too dry even dipped in some of the sauces it was challenging to eat more than a few pieces. Table service was attentive however the standard of cleanliness is questionable having heard of unpleasant discoveries in unused napkins that would put anyone off, there was also no toilet tissue in the single WC on the premises at a time when the restaurant was not even busy.

This place is like an alternative to Big Easy, except they do not serve seafood. If you like American BBQ food, and if you like MEAT, this place is for you. Word of woe though, they have replaced my local fish and chippies :(
They are currently doing 50% off the bill until this Weds (18÷11÷15) lunch and dinner. Takeaways are currently unavailable but you can doggy bag food from dining in. And you WILL need it as the portions are huge.
My friends who have visited warned me off the pulled pork and I do not particularly fancy chicken, so I opted for the pork ribs and beef brisket with hot link (sausage) and burnt end pie (think potato mash with meat at the bottom). The pork ribs are sweetened with honey and is oh so delicious. Brisket is very tender (but just not at the melt in your mouth Zelman meats point) and is slightly too salty for my taste. Hot link is amazing tasting but once again, slightly too salty if you do not wash it down with plenty of drinks or fillers like mash. Your plate of food comes with some sort of honey mustard sauce.
The burnt end pie initially came too cold (i.e. the outside metal container was warm but unfortunately the mash inside was not heated up properly). I mentioned this and the manager came over and offered to give me a fresh one. I told them I’m ok with them heating up my existing one but they insisted. Nice service overall.
Yes, wording are a bit strange in the menu. I can only think that these are what our American parts call them, but in the UK, these weird and strange sounding word combinations just confuse me to no end. Also their drinks menu have milkshakes and alcohol but somehow they do not have soft drinks listed. Trial and error means that we have figured out 1) they do not have fanta 2) yes they have lemonade 3) yes they have coke 4) they will just check how much these are — oh yes, £2.95 each.
The sauces on the table were interesting, they all have a slight vingarette twang and most are sweet sauces. Nice but not entirely necessary.
Conclusion: Better than Big Easy. But bring an empty stomach to eat here.
PS: They do super hot chicken wing challenges here, amongst other challenges.
