Born from renowned pitmaster Aaron Franklin’s barbecue prowess and Uchi founder Tyson Cole’s knowledge of Asian ingredients, Loro started in Austin in 2018. The Asian smokehouse launched its Dallas outpost last summer in Old East Dallas (and will open in the former Flying Saucer location in Addison sometime this fall). Inside its Haskell Avenue smokehouse, Loro traffics in half-sheet pans filled with such goods as baby back pork ribs that have been slathered with red curry and tamarind then smoked three to four hours. But its signature burger is probably the best entry-level eat.
