About this business

Mechanic-turned-grillmaster Gene Porter turns out Southern barbecue and down-home ambiance in the land of high technology. Dixie's optional "The Man" sauce is about as hot as sauce comes, so go easy; meals have been ruined here by unwary applications. The already spicy, already delicious barbecue doesn't really need the boost. Order Ribs, Chicken or a Brisket Sandwich with Southern diner sides like beans and rice, potato salad, baked beans and corn bread. And don't forget iced tea to soothe the burn. This place can draw a cr... read more

Decent foot, awful customer service – Dixie's is one of those "word of mouth" places frequented and loved by those who love to be in the know and impress out-of-towners with a hidden local find. The first thing you will notice is that Dixie's does not go out of their way to create a welcoming atmosphere or a sense that they care to have you as a customer. It's supposed to be about the food, man! Unfortunately, the food is only slightly above average. Sauces overwhelm, as opposed to complement, the meat. Sides are pedestrian ... read more

Dixie's BBQ, Bellevue, WA – If you go to Dixie's for North Carolina or Texas barbeque, you are going to the wrong place. If you want to enjoy Dixie's, just take a big appitite, a small amount of money, and no preconceptions of what barbeque means somewhere else and you will enjoy a succulent and tasty meal. This is a wonderful place to just kick back and enjoy a well cooked meal.

Try Anothr Place – OMG, is this really BBQ? I'd heard so much about this place and was expecting really tasty food. The only good thing was there was no line but the food was a completely disaster. The pork BBQ was bad. I'm not a sauce person, as I believe the real flavor is in the meat but sauce was a must for this. Can you believe they boil their mean? The bones just crumbled. If you decided to try this place, good for you but do not stand in line for hours like other people did. If you know BBQ you will be mighty upset. I... read more

It Ain't Stans!!! – Wait in line for a half hour for dried out meat with hot sauce that rips your mouth open?? That ain't BBQ folks. Where's the meat flavor? Waste of money...

A New Low for BBQ! – I am stunned that this place has garnered the glowing reviews it has! There just have to be better BBQ places here in Seattle! You wait in line for 35 - 40 minutes (lunch time), only to be ushered into a kitchen worthy of a Board of Health inspection. The BBQ sauce was pretty good, but the pork ribs underneath it all were almost tasteless. Dixie's is a local institution with a storied past, but sadly the proprietors seem to be coasting on their laurels.

If you love bbq, you've gotta try Dixie's... – This little place really delivers when it comes to barbecue! I think the food is just delicious, from ribs to the pulled pork sandwiches, and everything in between, I've never been dissatisfied with the food here. The employees make it a pleasure to come in and eat! I love this place! Beware of "the Man"!

love the service! – The customer service here is great! The staff interacts with you and helps you with your order, while you can be introduced to "the man" as a staff member circles around the tables with the sauce. What used to be a hidden secret under the freeway on Northrup way is now so well-known that they even made their mark at Husky Football games! We really missed their presence during the last couple of seasons, as a big bbq sandwich was a great way to relax and enjoy the games.

Husband finally took me to meet the man – I guess since we went for a late lunch they were about to close...and had no one in line. I'm always blessed like that I guess. I don't know what these people are complaining about in the review section. I had the brisket because that's the only thing the had left. Although, I really do not care for hot stuff I decided to meet the man...well maybe a toothpick dab on my meat. It was so spicy I could barely contain myself. Okay so I'm a wimp. But I really enjoyed my brisket. Being orig... read more

Real Louisiana barbecue and a mean dose of famously hot sauce are the stars of this Bellevue establishment. – The Scene People are quiet about Dixie's--they think the lines outside this converted auto-repair shop are long enough already. It has achieved legendary status on the Eastside for authentic Southern-style barbecue. The setting is appropriately simple, with long red tables and gregarious service. The Food Dished up in Styrofoam, the smoked meats, including brisket, are succulent. The rice and beans have the right amo... read more
