If you are in Birmingham AL make sure you stop in and try Dreamland Bar-B-Que. Their sauce is to die for!! It has a sweet and tangy flavor that you will never forget. Make sure you try the bread too.

Awful!! – We read about Dreamland BBQ in one of the flyers of Mobile attractions. Being in the south, I was expecting awesome BBQ, and was very much in the mood for some. We drove for what seemed like awhile in an area of town that was questionable. As we pulled in, I was alreay starting to have doubts, but tried to be optimistic. I ordered ribs and pulled chicken, my husband ordered a pulled pork sandwich, and I ordered mac and cheese for our 2 year old. They brought out store bought bread, and a small styrofoam container o... read more

Real tough bar-b-que ribs – Today, December 23, 2006, we drove over to Dreamland Bar-B-Que ribs to get a slab of ribs and some potato salad. We got it to take out. We got home and started to eat the ribs and couldn't even get them off of the bones, they were sooooooo tough. They sure were not worth $17.95 + tax. We could not even eat them. However, the potato salad was quite good. I would certainly appreciate the money back for the ribs. Jimmy Estes, 85 Carson Village, Birmingham, Al. 35215. Thank you!!

Pretty good, nothing special – Pretty good BBQ, ribs are a little tough. Nice atmosphere. The location in B-ham is much better. Don't go there alot.

Over Rated Tourist Trap – I have lived here all my life & I always heard about how good the ribs were at original Dreamland in Tuscaloosa Alabama. When they opened one in my area I was so excited. Then I ate there. The food is way overpriced & taste is just okay. The South is known for its delicious BBQ but please don't go to Dreamland & think we southerners consider what they serve to be "good" BBQ. If you want to find good BBQ just ask a local to point out their favorite hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint. That is where we hide th... read more

I won't recommend! – Our office had this take out. They do give you plenty to eat. But the sauce was aweful. I had to put another kind of sauce on my ribs inorder to eat them. The sauce was extremly watery and tasted like vinger. There are six of us in my office and no one liked them. The baked beans weren't seasoned well either. I think they just heated a can of baked beans. If your looking for good Barbeque don't go there.

I go there EVERY TRIP to Birmingham – Been there 4 times & all 4 times it's been good - quite good actually. I've had ribs in 3 or 4 other places in the Birmingham area & Dreamland's the best, TASTE-wise. Prices may be a bit higher than they should be, but so what - if you really like 'em, you won't mind. Don't know quite what those other reviewers experinced, but I sure haven't seen/felt it.

This is good??? – I had heard very good things about Dreamland. However, upon trying thier ribs, I found most of what I'd heard to be wrong. The sauce had a good flavor, though nothing special. The meat itself was tough to chew in the middle surrounded by massive chunks of grissle at the ends. I love ribs, but I won't be eating here again.
