What to Eat at The BBQ Company - Indian Barbeque Restaurant How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For The BBQ Company - Indian Barbeque Restaurant, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Availability. Ask about bus-group bookings before arriving; one weekend visitor could not access the buffet or BBQ because two tourist buses had reserved it.
Plan Parking. Allow for only one free parking hour, then budget 10 AED for each additional hour or look for public parking outside.
Ask Spice Level. Request less-spicy versions if needed; one diner said the staff accommodated that request.
Budget Drinks. Check the drinks charge separately, since beverages were not included in one reviewer’s buffet experience.
Use Promotions. Check the current booking and payment promotion before dining, as reviewers reported discounts ranging from 25% to 35%.
Ask Birthday Offer. If you are celebrating, confirm the birthday terms when booking; reviews mention complimentary cake and, in some offers, a free buffet.

The Bottom Line
The BBQ Company is an Indian barbecue buffet in Al Hudaiba, with the main attraction being live grilling at the table rather than a conventional à la carte meal. Starters arrive at the table, followed by a buffet covering chaats, salads, main courses and desserts. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian diners are both catered for, and children can have fries, pizza, pasta and grill selections.
The strongest repeat favourites are Papri Chaat, table-side barbecue and the live chaat stations. Reviews also call out chicken wings, crispy corn, prawns, grilled vegetarian items and white sauce pasta. Families and groups use it for birthdays and office gatherings; several diners mention a complimentary birthday cake, so confirm the current terms when booking.
Value is a recurring theme, with reported buffet prices around AED99 and occasional discounts. Still, this is not the most consistent buffet in the neighbourhood. Some diners found the dessert range narrow, main-course dishes bland or too spicy, and buffet items depleted late in the meal.
The washroom is outside and shared, and parking is reportedly free for only one hour before extra charges apply. Check availability ahead of busy group bookings and ask for milder spice if needed.
