I really love this place! The BBQ meats are good, but so are a lot of BBQ meats in Oklahoma. I ALWAYS order the veggie plate with seared green beans, Dutch oven sweet potatoes, French fries well done and a side salad! It’s so good!! Really, all of their sides are flavorful and cooked to perfection! I just particularly like those four best! Been many times and will continue to eat there. Service is always top notch. The place is really loud when it’s busy, which I don’t like at all. Can’t talk/hear your dinner guests. It’s annoying. I’d go more often if it wasn’t that loud.
We had a really nice meal . The nacho plate was great . I had the chicken and turkey , the chicken might have been the best I’ve had in years ... the turkey was good but a tad dry but I get it it’s so lean . Fancy Mac and Cheese was awesome
We will be back
My husband and I had a reservation here before a concert. We were seated as soon as we arrived and our table was already set with water and sliver. This was a great touch. Our waitress was knowledgeable and the things she recommended were all delicious. Other servers came by and refilled our drinks so we never lacked on our water and fountain drinks. Our food was out to us within 15 minutes! It was so good. I had the chicken and ribs and my husband had the turkey and ribs. We both had macaroni and cheese and the okra fried hard (recommend by our server). They were awesome. The cornbread was good, but they need to add some sugar to the jiffy mix they are using. The only downside was the noise level. It was loud in the restaurant and once it filled up it became difficult to hear table conversation.

The bread pudding's INSANE, and the salads here are really nice. Tasty ribs, too.
Love the collard greens and cornbread here, and am wild about the okra.
I hate the back room policy, though -- it's prohibitively expensive to get a table in the (ample and quieter) back room -- even on a weeknight. (There's a per head minimum for these tables, and the minimum's prohibitively high, IMHO.)
Started with Deviled eggs and bacon wrapped Quail, highly impressed with both. Got St. Louis ribs and pulled pork with Mac and braised collard greens. Never tried collard greens before so not sure how to compare theirs but wow they were great. Upscale BBQ done different but different was definitely good here.
My favorite barbecue restaurant in the area. They have corn everything. I'm not a huge BBQ fan, but I do really like this place. Good atmosphere and service.
What an awesome lunch today. I got the smoked prime rib sandwich and my husband got the smoked club. Both were great and the sides are wonderful too. Got the corn that was so flavorful and the potato salad was amazing and I'm a snob when it comes to that. The okra was great too.
Stopped here for dinner. It was good.
Had the Charred Jalapeño Pimento Cheese appetizer. A good sized scoop of pimento cheese along with bread triangles and a jalapeño pickled assortment of pearl onions, olives, peppers, and gerkins. Pretty good for starters.
Had the Black Pepper Crusted Prime Rib with Barrios Street Corn and Potato Salad. The Prime Rib was done correctly and had a nice hickory smoke flavoring. The Barrios Street Corn was a grilled ear of corn with seasonings and finely grated fresh Mexican cheese. Really nice and sweet tasting. The potato salad was good but needed a pinch of salt, in my opinion, to bring out its great flavors.
All in all a good meal. A bit pricy, but a very good value.

We had our first dinner last night at Iron Star to celebrate our anniversary & catch up with some old friends. We started off with the cornbread muffins, which were exactly how they should be. Slightly sweet with pieces of jalapeño, very tasty. I had the pulled pork with the Dutch oven sweet potatoes & the braised collard greens. Everything was really delicious & the portions were great. A little more than I could eat but enough that you don't feel like you got cheated. We finished our meal with the peach crisp, which was OK but nothing to write home about. The peaches weren't sweet and the crust was all stuck in the dish. Highlights of the night were the greens & my drink, the Crispin Cider. So so good! The food is good, service was ok...I definitely think if you want a good bbq dinner in a little more upscale setting, you should give them a visit!
Can we say YUMBO?! Ribs to the turkey to the Mac and cheese. All so very yummy. I always leave full and happy, just like you should feel after smashing some bbq. My mouth is watering just thinking of this.
Nice restaurant with a laid back feel but top
Notch food, service and atmosphere. The food is delicious with fair portions for the prices. Have the deviled eggs appetizer for sure.
The bar looked to be well stocked and their drink menu had a lot of appealing choices but it was a business lunch so we didn’t get to try any. I’ll get back and give those a spin sometime.
All in all if you’re looking for bbq this is a great spot and it’s a little more upscale so it would be a good date or socializing location.
A local recommended this location for BBQ. Sam our server went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of during our visit. The food was amazing!! Thank you for a great experience!!!!
We got the sampler app, and everything else with potato salad, green beans and Mac & cheese.
Ribs were great, brisket was good... really enjoyed the sausage and BBQ sauce. BBQ sauce was the best we ever had. Hopefully they can bottle it up. Cornbread was delicious but a bit dry for my taste. All the sides were great.

Iron Star BBQ is a haven for barbecue enthusiasts, offering a delectable fusion of Southern flavors and rustic charm. Nestled in a refurbished 1920s-era building, the restaurant effortlessly combines a cozy ambiance with a menu that pays homage to traditional BBQ while adding its own modern twists.
The star of Iron Star BBQ is undoubtedly the meat—smoked to perfection, tender, and bursting with rich flavors. Whether it's the succulent brisket, melt-in-your-mouth ribs, or the mouthwatering pulled pork, each dish showcases the artistry of slow-cooked barbecue. Accompanying sauces and sides complement the meat beautifully, providing a balanced palette of tastes.
The rustic décor, complete with exposed brick walls and wooden accents, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for gatherings with friends and family. The staff's friendly and attentive service adds to the overall positive dining experience.
While the focus is on carnivorous delights, Iron Star BBQ does cater to vegetarian diners with a modest selection of meatless options. The beverage menu, though not extensive, offers a good variety of drinks to pair with the barbecue feast.
In conclusion, Iron Star BBQ stands out as a must-visit for barbecue aficionados. Its harmonious blend of traditional flavors, cozy setting, and attentive service make it a top contender for anyone seeking an authentic and satisfying BBQ experience.
This was my first time eating at this establishment. The food was absolutely fantastic!! The atmosphere was nice. It seems high class. The service was extremely excellent. They constantly come check on you to see if you need more to drink or want to order something else. They very polite and respectful. I plan to eat here again. They were quite busy when we ate there. They also have a banquet room, I would assume you could book for an event.
The beef brisket was wonderful. Corn bread was well made. The ribs were not bad and didn't pull off the bone. They were just ordinary without their BBQ sauce. The Mac and cheese was very good. Service was OK. Our server seemed very distracted and couldn't answer the basic question of what is their specialty. Then when I rephrased and asked what is their best food then he was able to answer. It was a bit loud.
I've been coming to Iron Star for years...and I have NEVER had a bad meal or service there!!! The atmosphere was amazing. Their playlist they had going was stellar...nothing but bangers. Mack, our server, was right on w/ our service. And the food...OMGaga...that food...ribs & brisket was tender, deviled eggs are always a choice, & the sides we delicious. Literally nothing besides bones where left on our plates. Highly recommend.
My favorite smoked chicken and fried okra is still as good as when I first had it about 15 years ago. And because we don't have a chance to go often, it's even better. The BBQ club with fries is also wonderful and plenty filling. I always have leftovers from the 1/2 smoked chicken. The service was great- our server was attentive and polite.
Love Iron Star!
I love the lighting, atmosphere, customer service, menu selections, and portions. The Grilled Salmon, brussel sprouts & carrots, and Mac and Cheese are delish! The salmon is a nice portion seasoned and cooked to perfection. The Brussels sprouts and carrots are grilled just right giving it the right amount of crust. Now, let's talk about Mac and Cheese. it's some of the best I've tasted. The meal with a sweet tea was $30. Perfect for a date night also.

So, let's talk about it! 🤌🏿The salmon salad is delicious! It's a nice portion, full of flavor, and well constructed (not just contents thrown on a plate 🙄). It comes with a piece of salmon; perfect for just the right amount of protein and substance - it doesn't overpower the salad. Yes! Go order this salad!!
The barbecue is very good. I think their steaks are some of the best in Oklahoma City. I had always just ordered barbecue and decided to try the filet. That's what I get almost every time now.
