Amazing food got the bbq combo of two steak tips and chicken with potato salad and collard greens everything was to die for tips were cooked perfectly medium rare and the chicken was so easy to cut with a plastic knife and fork the owner Billy such a fine gentleman asked me where I was from how I heard about him took the time out to chat if I could give more than a 5 star rating and review I would I'm definitely going back soon to try more of the menu. All the staff were super friendly and when asking about recommendations gave superb advice which will always make me want to visit again plenty of seating all booths were open and spotless when arriving after 1pm fast friendly service can't say anything more 5 plus stars thank you Billy for the amazing meal and to your staff for the hospitality.

First of all, simply disregard all the one star ratings. I live a walk away, and kinda sorta know the neighborhood. The poor ratings are generally from non-yelpers, tourists looking for BBQ, or someone who had a beef with the service. pssst: Or a competitor. This establishment is owned and operated by a Greek couple who has been doing this for 30+ years. At one point, apparently during a 1990 TX BBQ fad, the wife sent the husband down to TX for 30 days to learn TX BBQ. They rebranded their sandwich/pizza shop. To my New England palate, the BBQ is okay, but not sensational. That is the downside: "Okay" BBQ. The upside is that this is a couple who has been operating this for 30+ years. It is the "go to" joint for all the employees, lawyers, and judges next door at Dorchester District Court. I'm going with their judgment rather than the fly-by review Yelpers. The sandwiches are good, the pizza (depending upon your sensitivity) is fine, and the value sensational. It is a Dorchester sandwich/pizza joint, don't get me wrong. But it is this couple's dream, and, hey, it's pretty f***ng good!

Food is always hot, fresh and delicious. Always busy with great service. Ambiance is a great and can always anticipate on a few laughs from the locals. I visit Billy's often and have never had a complaint. Chicken fingers are ridiculous must try! Pizza is always fresh and delicious. Billy's Rules!

Hey people if you believe in me and my absolute great taste for comfort foods of all cultires you will take my word and forget about all that slow and low (and tasteless crap) BBQ ribs and come here to Billy's in the heart of Historic Codman Square in Dorchester. They have the tastiest, hugest BBQ Spare Ribs here charred to perfection then slatjered in awesome BBQ Sauce tjhese are not dainty St Louis Style Ribs but some funky ol old style ribs where they leave the fatty knob on St Louis Ribs for a propper Spare Rib Experience. When you order Billy Himself might be there he's been in the Business over 30 years and is a great person Order The Rib Dinner Plate it Brings five huge center cut ribs and two sides from a big variety I usually get Collard Greens and Rice Pilaf. Thank me later and them José sent you (Chris's friend).

My favorite reliable restaurant in the neighborhood. The food is freshly made and you can taste it. The couple behind the counter are friendly and personable whether I call them on the phone or pop by for a pickup. The onion rings are a must. They are the best I have ever tasted with just ketchup. You can actually taste the sweet onions. Check out the wings. Not prepackaged. Taste good plain, BBQ or with buffalo sauce. Fries are crisp and non-greasy on the outside and soft on the inside. Also love the saucy BBQ ribs, sweet potatoes and collard greens. Will try the burgers and fish & chips next. Call in your order, stop by and pick it up or have it delivered. Check out their 10 specials.
