When was the last time you were in your car and the hankering for some good ole BBQ hit you like a stack of hickory wood? If you are in the Eastern area I would highly recommend stopping by Bells. We have been going there for a while and this review is long past due but let me break this down like Wreck It Ralph for you. We found the place after searching a gluten free app for a place my daughter can eat; before you make a comment of, "oohhh your one of those".... My daughter has severe stomach pain when she consumes gluten so this is not simply a TMZ OMG a Jenner was slipped some carbs moment. Anyways, we stopped in and the staff was super helpful and friendly and told us about the process they take when making the gluten free chicken fingers, which I must add when I took my dad tax from my daughters plate they were quite delicious. Our other little humans ordered mac and cheese and the mini corndogs and of course they loved it. The wife and I ordered Brisket and Pork Belly. I feel like the pork belly deserves its own section in this review... We have been to Korean bbq, sushi joints, lots of establishments that serve succulent slabs of swine stomach but this plate comes to our table in the hands of server looking like they are carrying a an emperor of meat on a padded bed while being fanned with palm fronds. Okay, well maybe not palm fronds but it is still awesome. They did not skimp, it was piled high and was for sure a meal in your mouth treat that was smoked to perfection. As for the brisket, it was also cooked by what seemed to be a pit-master runner up... Now, I say runner up because the first place people usually sputter out after the competition and the runner up ends up being insanely succesful. If you are questioning my logic here you need to watch more American Idol. The Brisket was awesome, it was juicy and had a nice bark and great smoke flavor and once again there was no attempt to skimp on the portions. Lastly, sides are not to be forgotten and honestly I want to refrain from telling you my favorite because I have gone to Bells since and had days they are sold out. So me telling you the best side is like a fisherman giving up his honey hole. Okay.... It's the buffalo cauliflower... Lets Review, If you are hungry, and you want to meet an awesome staff that really takes care of the patrons and a kitchen staff that clearly wants to put out a good product then this is a great place to try out if you are in the area. read more

4.5/5! I've been wanting to try this for a while now and decided to enjoy some take out! The staff was super friendly and very helpful. It was pretty busy inside and they had a ton of to-go orders too but the staff was super calm and got to my order right away! I enjoyed the chicken and pulled pork. Both were great options and the Bells BBQ sauce was also sooo good! For sides I received the corn bread, Mac and cheese and friend onions which were all delicious! The only side that I had that was average and will pass up next time is the smashed potatoes, which where actually just mashed potatoes. Overall it was very good and I will be going here again when craving BBQ! read more

Bell's BBQ gives all BBQ places in the valley a run for their money! Everything is fresh, staff is super helpful and friendly, and nothing is lacking flavour. I ended up choosing Cameron's Southern Fried Chicken Breast Strips (about $16 with tax) since I didn't want to get my hands all messy during my lunch break. It comes with 2 sides, a large slice of Texas toast, and 2 pickle slices. Literally 2. The chicken strips were large and had little to no fat on them. Fried to perfection. No hints of old, overused grease whatsoever. I chose mashed potatoes and macaroni for my 2 sides. Again, no complaints this way. The macaroni was creamy and the potatoes were the ideal texture with just a hint of garlic. Not overbearing but just right. According to their website, all sides are homemade and I am not going to disagree with that. Only thing I would change is the serving of 2 quarter sized pickles. The pickles are very good, but I wish they gave you more lol I don't really understand the point of adding pickles if they aren't a regular amount. It's not like I ordered a sandwich. Definitely delicious, and a place I would never say no to! read more

Very good BBQ. Delish chicken dishes too. Cornbread was perfect. Nothing felt mass produced.

Big THANK YOU to Bells BBQ. This is the definition of Henderson family. After spending three days of moving from homes, my father and I forgot it was Father's Day. Heading to Bell's BBQ, not thinking of what time it was, we get stopped at the door and was told that it's 7pm and they were closing, BUT...... they are happy to take our order. What a beautiful thing. The staff was humble and excited to help us out. The only down fall was that my pops didn't get his beef ribs, but we got everything else. I was more than happy to leave them a generous tip but wish I could give them more, to have the opportunity to celebrate Father's Day with my dad. THANK YOU Bell's, you're our favorite. read more

Such a lovely environment! I love the homey feel that this place has and such good service. The mac n cheese is incredible, especially the pepper jack one, the fried pickles with BBQ ranch is always a hit, and the beef ribs are to die for!! On top of that, the dessert jars are always such a refreshing and sweet finish to such a good meal. Portion sizes are reasonable and I always leave happy and ready to come back :) read more

Good barbecue, and a nice offering of side dishes. Easy to walk in an order on the spot

Yummy in my tummy, I liked the meats and cake bread, I mean corn bread. This place has good food read more

Have been coming here for years. Amazing BBQ great customer service. The food is fabulous. You will not regret it.

Bell's BBQ was recommended to me by a friend. I purchased Baby Back Ribs and St. Louis Style Ribs for a birthday party while I was visiting family in Las Vegas. The barbecue was tender, the sauce was delicious and they were a hit with everyone! My only regret is that I didn't take pictures. Bell's will be my go to place for barbecue whenever I'm in Las Vegas! read more

Impeccable customer service. As a first timer that is important. I didn't like the ribs as I like a more smoky flavor. But I loved the collards, red beans and rice. The desserts were so hard to choose since they all looked great. I got red velvet cake in a jar. Super yummy. Best part was Les. He cares so much about his product and customer, he came to our table to see why I didn't like my ribs and what he can do to help. He was so nice. The hot link sent as replacement was good. My sis liked her rib meat sandwich too! Best restaurant muzak I EVER heard. Can't wait to go back. I wish I had asked the name of the hostess/cashier. She was so nice and helpful. read more

I DO NOT CARE about any of these other reviews. I may have to be the number 1 fan of this place. Jesus blessed this place right here! That corn bread got me quake'n. Amen. read more

I cannot say enough about the service and quality of food and service. I ordered sort of last minute during this pandemic for a drive by food setup and Steph helped me walk through the menu, pick the best options for my needs and was super easy to work with. The delivery was flawless and they even made sure we had extra sternos since it was a catered setup. People LOVED the food and said compared to other BBQ In town you could really taste the quality. So happy. Will be using again for other group events!!! read more

Tried this place today based on my coworkers suggestion and also because it was her birthday. We had a party of six and when the waitress came to the table she didn't introduce herself and said they only had three menus ? WTH? Mind you we were the only ones in the restaurant. The food was ok. I had the brisket which was very dry, the cheese corn, crispy Brussels sprouts and Mac and cheese, let's just say the corn and Brussel sprouts were the best out of my entire meal. I really wanted to try the beef ribs but they were out ( which I wasn't informed of by the waitress until I ordered them) the rest of my coworkers said the food was ok as well , they had a variety of the greens, pulled chicken sandwich, pork belly sandwich. Overall I might give them a second chance and try the beef ribs if they have them on the menu read more

WOW - Bells has ruined all other BBQ places for me forever. I travel for a living and always look for the best BBQ. My search has ended. Their food is like a party in your mouth. I had the St Louis ribs, fried pickles, four cheese corn, pork belly and banana pudding. Everything I had was fresh and extremely flavorful. They have a knack for combining flavors that will blow your mind. As if the food was not enough, their staff is amazing. We were served by Ava and could not have been happier. Her vivacious personally is addictive and her knowledge of the menu was outstanding. Be sure to try the four cheese corn on the cob - you will not be disappointed. Trust me - go here. read more

Ok I tried this place again and looks like if you don't enjoy a heavy fatty piece of brisket, just ask for it lean! Service was speedy and the sides tasted great. Really enjoyed the 4 cheese corn niblet. I could have eaten like 10 of those! Plus don't forget about the yelp check in for $5 off purchase of over 25 buck! read more

Really tasty BBQ joint with fast, friendly service and good sized portions. Make sure you try the cornbread.

Holy crap! We just grub hubbed an early dinner from Bell's. We've never eaten here before. We got the pork belly, brisket, chicken, St. Louis ribs, beans, okra, potato salad, slider buns and the house and old fashioned sauce. Pfft; you stuck your foot in that okra...dang. I could eat the entire order but I had to share. The pork belly was amazing and the brisket and chicken were good. We all agreed the house sauce was the perfect amount of tangy and peppery. Loved it. Did I mention I loved the okra?? My gosh! read more

Everything is great here. We do ala carte meat and a couple IPA's. The sauces are great that come with. I love the coleslaw as well. We sit outside in their little patio area every time. read more

Bbq was okay. Wish they gave extra bbq sauce. Came here during lunch hour and there was no wait. I had the. Brisket combo. Brisket was dry. They do not add bbq sauce to it but they do give you a small cup of sauce. The Toast that came with the meal was big and tasty. They do give you two sides as well, corn was okay, no taste. The garlic mash potatoes was flavorful. Staff was nice and friendly. Restaurant is clean and has a decent amount of sitting area. read more

We been going here for years! Just had a large order from their catering menu and everything was perfect and delicious!

Fast food for sure. Won't go back. Terrible service and felt rushed to order and get out , maybe just a bad night for management or this maybe how it is, not sure, won't try again so won't know. Location is great but will drive a bit farther for real bbq So done with this . It sucks and so does this review app read more

A really great BBQ spot on the way home. The food is amazing and all the sides are just as good.

I went here for the first time a few days ago it is close to my house and was recommended by a friend that it is very good here. Parking is plentiful here and as far as upon arrival it looks like a clean place. It is small, cozy & bright. The people that work here are friendly and helpful. They do come by and check up on you and make sure that everything is good. So I ordered a brisket plate with a corn coblet, collard greens and an ice tea. The iced tea taste good and seem to be freshly brewed. Corn cob tasted okay but lacked a little bit of flavor. The collard greens has bacon pieces inside and taste a little bit salty but was okay. They put the brisket on top of a thick cut of toast and topped it with some fried onions. The toast was thick and crusty , the brisket was moist and tasted pretty good, and the fried onions was a nice touch on top. The two barbecue sauce bottles is on the table one is spicy and one is not which tasted yummy when dipped with the brisket. I will most likely come back again and try their other dishes! read more

Bell's BBQ - brisket plate with corn & collard greens - Barbeque Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

Drove by several time going home. Stopped in for lunch. Nice interior, not fancy but comfortable with an extensive look up menu board. The server, Ava was welcoming and helpful. The food was excellent, 5pc St. Louis Ribs, with two sides. I had Mac n Cheese and coleslaw. The Mac was over the top, one of the best I have had. They offer several sauces, the presentation was nice with crispy thin fried onions and pickles. The onions were a great compliment and very tasty. Will definitely visit again, just for the Mac n Cheese. Forgot to mention the ribs were delicious and fell off the bone. read more

Service here is stellar! Everyone is so kind and helpful. Food is very good! I would highly recommend their brisket, it's wonderful.

Holy heck!!!! I just keep walking around my kitchen repeating, 'OMG, IT'S SOOOO GOOD!!' First of all, ordering over the phone was AMAZING! SUPER friendly and helpful. Then we came home and opened up our beautiful smorgasbord. Every bite equaled pure DELIGHT!! We ordered the sliced brisket, cheesy corn, fried pickles, red beans & rice, garlic mash and French fries (for our picky eater). I already can't wait to return and we technically still have leftovers. :D Next time, DESSERT! Thank you for existing Bell's BBQ!! Also, still completely blown away by the friendliness of all three guys. read more

All businesses make mistakes occasionally. How you respond is what matters most. Very disappointing experience. First off, no employee shortage. Kitchen was fully staffed. Only two tables in dining room but there were to-go orders being processed. Ordered two dinners, a combo plate and a sandwich with some sides. Fifteen minutes later, I am making eye contact with the hostess and she gives me a sympathetic shrug when she sees that we are not yet served. -21 minutes later, one plate arrives. -When no additional food arrives after five minutes, I walk to the counter to remind them additional entrée and sides are still due. -8 minutes after the first entrée, we get the second sandwich. The side is not ready and the first plate is cold. I ask the hostess to cancel the side and please credit me the charge. She is not able to issue a credit until after they close. So I review my charges 48 hours later and the credit is not correct. Disappointing service, recovery and follow up. I have eaten there prior and had a good experience. I hope they can pick up their game. read more

Food is amazing. We were traveling from the Grand Canyon back to Vegas. Yelp to the rescue for something different. We came upon this place. Wow the brisket is to die for! You will not be sorry you ordered it! Pulled pork was very good too. Potato salad was a bit spicy but the owner switched it out no problems! They will let you sample the sides and I would do that with it and the slaw. Grits-cheese and mac n cheese was beyond delicious! Corn bread as others mentioned is ..well... it is the best I have had in a very long time! It is sweet and moist! Love the outdoor seating for a mild night like we had. My only regret is we do not have one in Indianapolis! read more

I used Grub Hub to place my order and it was ready when I arrived 25 minutes later. My dad and I planned on sharing a half rack of ribs, two sides and an additional side of Brisket. But once I got there, I realized we needed dessert. So I picked up one banana and one S'more pudding. The Brisket was chopped and served dry - definitely better with sauce. I preferred the Ribs. They weren't quite as fall off the bone tender as I've found other places, but the rub gave it some decent flavor. The sides we chose slaw and friesX5 (mixed selection of regular, curly and crinkle cut). The slaw is mayo based with a little sweetness, which was nice. Between the two puddings I thought the S'mores was better because it was a lot more rich. It was nice to try another BBQ place in Vegas with friendly service. But I can't say that I would seek this place out after having found a few other places in town that I prefer. read more

I've been a loyal customer of this place for the last six months or so. It's so good that I just moved to Summerlin and now drive across town to get my fix every two weeks. When I'm there I dine in and get two orders to go. It's the best bbq I've ever had. Eric the owner has a great rapport with his customers and is very accommodating. The crew he has working there are also great. They're always quick to get me a refill on my soda, etc. I'm sure Eric's tired of me bugging him about opening a Summerlin location but too bad, Eric...I'm gonna keep harassing you (just kidding). No, in all seriousness, this place gets enough steady business that I doubt he even needs a second location. read more

I came here November 12, 2017, but hadn't had a chance to post my review. I had their catfish, fried and salt n pepper crusted, okra fries, and cheese grits. My bf had their BBQ ribs, 3 cheese mac, and red beans and rice. I also had Aunt Linda's Red Velvet sweet jar for dessert. The food was all really good! The red velvet sweet jar was toe curling good! I ordered online and was very happy with the way the food was packaged. They provided silverware, condiments, and plenty of napkins. The food was ready when promised. We were pleased with the food and service and have been talking about going again soon. read more

We had an order of baby back ribs, the pork fell off the bone! The seasoning and taste, delicious. The macaroni and cheese baked very nice! We also had beef ribs, needed to order more! read more

We are always on the search for good bbq. As most of you know it can be a very hard thing to do. And those of you who read my reviews know that I am extremely picky when it comes to meat! We decided to give Bell's BBQ a try after reading the reviews and looking at everyone's yummy photos! We have two BBQ places we frequent regularly and I have to say....Bell's has beaten them all! :) Not only with the food, but the service and the atmosphere and the prices!!!! A huge win win all around!!!! All together we had: brisket, pulled pork, spare ribs, mac-n-cheese, buffalo cauliflower, coleslaw and 4 cheese crusted corn on the cob!!!! Spare ribs were out of this world...didn't even need a drop of sauce.. incredible...flavorful...fell off the bone! I put some of the pulled pork on my mac-n-cheese and omg...mmmmmm! For me my favorite part was the buffalo cauliflower....I would go back for that alone!!!! Incredible! But honestly everything was delicious and we have found out new go to BBQ joint for sure!!!! We were told we should save room for dessert so we did...we had ordered the banana pudding and creme brulee but they were out of banana pudding...so we had 2 creme brulee....so creamy and had a faint taste of vanilla...but the perfect amount of sugar on the top. Definitely hoping they have banana next time so we can try that...but would definitely get the creme brulee again. The atmosphere was great, clean fun staff and great music playing!! The person who took our order asked us if it was our 1st time there and was very helpful with suggestions! Thank you for a great experience all around and we will be seeing you soon!!! read more

Best barbecue on Eastern Avenue. Sides are delicious. Especially like the catfish. Highly recommend.

Loved It! We were greeted immediately and taken care of by the friendly staff. Catfish was hot, moist, and crispy. Mac & Cheese is pretty good. I prefer my brisket to be flavorful so I request it to be on the fatty side. Barbecue sauce was tasty. The Smores Dessert is Delicious! read more

Good food. Good service. Will definitely return. A local restaurant worth supporting.

I went to Bell's today. Walked in and the place smelled great, they also had some dope blues playing in the background. We ordered the pulled smoked brisket and pulled rib meat sandwiches. We got fried okra fries and hot tots with an extra side order of fries 5x. They use thick slices of Texas toast for the bread of the sandwiches sliced in half and then stuffed with the meat. The presentation looked great but the meat was just a lil dry. But once you put some bbq sauce on it, the flavor came out and they turned out to be some good tasting sandwiches. The sides were really good too! I'd definitely come here again. read more

Went back today and was very disappointed. Was not that hunger as it was only 2 pm and I had just come from a business meeting near by. So I decided to go light with a sandwich and a side of my favorite okra that they make in house. Now let me describe the nearly meatless bread sandwich. Most people would call it Texas toast. Each side of this bread sandwich is about the thickness of 2 regular slices of white bread. So think of this as a standing on edge large piece of bread that has been cut in the middle to hold the meat. However the amount of meat that was placed inside was meager to say the least. Maybe I should call this a jam sandwich....2 pieces of bread jammed together. Bottom line...not worth the $9.95. Plus I don't understand why they had so many employees behind the counter as the place was almost empty. One thing is for sure I will not be returning or recommending this place. read more

Tried catering from this place for an office party, but now I definitely want to try in the restaurant! Chicken and turkey that was super tender and delicious. Mac and cheese was pretty good too. read more
