Dinosaur Bar-B-Que

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, overlooking the Hudson River, and across the street from the Best Western Plus Albany Franklin Square Inn Troy/Albany hotel, is a great place for travelers and locals. We stopped in for dinner on a Monday night and the restaurant was crowded.

However, even though all the tables were full, our waiter was still very professional, quick, efficient, and helpful.

We ordered wings, with the Wango Tango sauce, which was a great combination of spicy and sweet. The wings are also smoked, then grilled, to give them this beautiful, smokey flavor while keeping a nice crispy crunch on the outside.

We also ordered the Tres Hombres combination plate to split, and believe me, there was plenty of food to go around! The plate included ribs, BBQ pulled pork, and sliced brisket. It also came with two sides and corn bread. Phew!

In addition, we had the Caramel Cheesecake, which was absolutely delectable!

Everything was delicious! The meat on the ribs was fall of the bone good, and the bar-be-que sauce was fantastic, and added flavor without overpowering the taste of the smoked meats.
