Red Dog Saloon is an Austin, TX Barbecue restaurant, serving 18-hour roast ribs, brisket, aged chuck steak burgers and much more, all best enjoyed with tasty cocktails or milkshakes.
Barbecue grew up in the South of the USA where cooks learned to slow roast cuts of meat over fire pits to make them tender. Exposure to the smoke of the smoldering wood added a distinctive smoky and juicy taste to the meat. Our award-winning smokers have been imported from the USA and are built to recreate the cooking process of those original fire pits. We use the traditional American woods of hickory and mesquite to give a full smoke flavor, and the meat stays in the smoker for up to 18 hours.

    Finally a decent place in Southampton serving good quality American style BBQ / Burgers. Is it pricey? Not really as to get anything near this quality you will have to travel. Southampton is in dire need of more restaurants of this calibre. Definitely go again.

    Kids meals were fab and great value. Macaroni was incredible. We had the oregan platter was very nice meat but potatoes lumpy and beans inedible. Don't think it was worth £69 we paid. No way near enough sauce. Had to share the sausage. Chicken wings were the best! Staff were friendly and helpful but we had to call them over to us each time for ice cream, drinks, bill. And they only serve 1 type of pudding!

    Great experience for our first visit. The food was so tasty couldn't fault it. They even made a special effort for my husbands birthday, a tasty dessert with a candle :)

    Fantastic mouth-watering food as ever - everything from burgers to ribs to the chicken is superb. Great range of spirits as well, though it would be nice to see their cocktail range expanded. Highly recommend.

    Been here lots and usually love everything! Cronus burger-changed recipe (swapped hot links sausage for chorizo which is less tasty and tougher to chew through). Pickles were forgotten and there was no red dog sauce any longer. Tried the new roast-very small portion considering the price, arrived basically cold and the roast wasn't actually available until 1pm (even though we arrived at 12pm and were only informed of this after we'd ordered). Meat was beautifully cooked though. They were obviously short staffed and were doing their best, staff were very attentive despite being busy. In general the service was great besides a forgotten item (which was quickly corrected), drinks slow to arrive and denied request to cut the burger in half but instead gave us a knife to do it ourselves, fine but a bit odd! I hope this is constructive feedback as we really do love it here but it was nowhere near as good as usual.

    Food here is always amazing can't fault that. On the downside having booked a table and having to wait 20 mins to be seated, only to be told the last of the platters and most of the menu had just been sold to a big walk in table. Staff were friendly and apologised but led to a slightly disappointing visit. Maybe focusing on the diners in the restaurant paying a service charge rather then the continuous delivery orders things would be better.

    Food was good as always, only knocking a star off as they’d actually ran out of BBQ food due to a large table ordering a load of platters, they probably assumed they wouldn’t be as busy as they were. Had a burger instead which was great as always, the pulled pork croquettes were nice and a clever way to ensure any leftover pork from previous service aren’t wasted

    Lovely burgers and sides. Good service but very loud . Only non alcoholic beer available to a non drinker, should consider stocking non alcoholic cider and nosecco and Could not provide a jug or even a glass of water! Claimed they’d run out of jugs… very poor.

    My son was really looking forward to going to the red dog. He was very happy with his chicken burger and fries.The staff were very polite and helpful..The atmosphere was good. My daughter had pork ribs which were more fat than meat , which was a real shame. I found the coke to be very watery, and the coleslaw tasted of vinegar, this was not pleasant. I think this is overpriced for what you get. I think chips should come with the burgers for the price you are paying. I would not go here again. But i had a great time with my family.
