'''Blue Dot Barbecue''' is a restaurant located at 310 North [[De Villiers Street]], in the heart of the [[Belmont-DeVilliers]] neighborhood, known for its hamburgers and rib sandwiches. It is owned and operated by [[Thomas Long, Jr.]] and his son, [[Byron Long]].
Blue Dot is named for its original owners, [[Blue Robinson]] and his wife Dorothy ("Dot"). The restaurant opened in 1947<ref>[[Pensapedia:Uncertain dates|Date uncertain]]. Please see [[Talk:Blue Dot Barbecue|the discussion page]].</ref> and was originally located in the [[Eastside]] neighborhood, near the [[H&O Restaurant]]. It later relocated to the intersection of [[De Villiers Street|De Villiers]] and [[Wright Street]]s, moving again to its current location circa 1995. The Robinsons' nephew, Thomas, was an early worker at the restaurant and took over operations circa 1987.<ref>"Black History Month: Business sees success by just staying small."
