Absolutely loved the customer service that I received. The woman who took my order was just awesome. Also loved the typical barbecue joint theme decorations throughout the restaurant. And lastly I loved all of the food, truly :)

2 spare ribs, 3 baby back ribs, and a pound of brisket (half lean, half fatty).

Picked up some smoked meats to go since my dad and I were missing a protein with our dinner. $40 for the haul wasn't bad! Taste and texture of the meats were on point. Solid neighborhood spot, surprised at how empty it was on a Saturday night but it was an hour before closing. Our only critique was that the house bbq and spicy bbq sauce were not a hit. I've never had a bbq sauce like that so we'll pass on that next time.

Brisket sandwich mac n cheese. Baby back ribs.

As the kids would say the place is mid. Not bad but not good either. Walking up a nice bbq smell wafted in the air and got me excited. Unfortunately the excitement was short lived. I got the brisket sandwich with mac n cheese and two baby back rib bones. Service was quick and easy. If you have to put shredded cheese on top of your mac you've already failed. It was gross and almost inedible. The ribs were dry and flavorless. The meat did not fall off the bone. The brisket was bland and dry. The the og bbq sauce and spicy sauce were both very good and saved the brisket. On a side note the strip mall has the ugliest buildings.

I've been meaning to try Bell's for quite awhile, this morning I was craving bbq so we decided to come here, the smells as you walk up are salavating. As soon as you walk in there is a counter where you place your order, the cashier was very welcoming and answered all of the questions I had to help me decide. I ended up getting a plate of Brisket which comes with Texas Toast, and your choice of two sides, I ordered their crispy Brussels sprouts- these are a premium side, so they were a .75 up charge, I also had their red beans and rice and since I really wanted cornbread I ordered a side of that too (totally unnecessary on my part since they serve the brisket over Texas Toast) They have a great variety of sides, which actually made my decision on what to order hard because I love sides. The brisket was tender smoky and delicious, and they had 4 different bbq sauces to top your meats off with. Overall I left here extremely full and satisfied. Glad I finally made my way in here, I plan on coming back soon to try all the different sides and meats.

Pulled pork sandwich, mac n' cheese, and wonderful fried onions.

This would have been a 4-star review, but my brisket was the fattest I can recall ever getting at a restaurant. The first time we ate at Bell's a couple of years ago, I also had fatty brisket. I told my wife I would never order it at Bell's again. However, while placing an order online, I saw where you could request lean brisket. Great, I'll give them another chance! I requested, "The leanest brisket you have, please." They even print that on your receipt. Lean, it was not, I ate just about half of the meat. My wife's pulled pork sandwich was quite good. Bell's sides are quite good. As we usually do, we got a side of Brussels sprouts, mac n' cheese, and the deviled egg potato salad. We tried the Buffalo Cauliflower, and I really loved it! Nice and crispy with a kick that is not overwhelming. We also like the braised greens and mashed yams. Also, their house BBQ sauce is quite good. The girl who checked out our carryout order was very friendly, even funny. As BBQ fanatics, we'd be back more often if the brisket wasn't so fatty.

It's one year later than our first review. Could they possibly perform as well as last year. YUP!!! We ordered our Thanksgiving turkey from Bells. the only differnce is that this year we asked them to carve the turkey for us. The turkey was delivered exactly when we asked for it. And it was carved perfectly. Delish! they did it again. Great service . Excellent food. Reasonable prices.

I asked for the sweet BBQ sauce. I don't know why I was also given a mustard sauce. Neither of us will touch that.

Oh, the smell! We had to park in the next lot over because someone in that strip center was having a party; their guests had taken every single parking spot! From the second we exited our car, we could smell the fabulous smell of barbecue. We entered Bell's with great anticipation. We had eaten here once, several years ago. I thought I'd written a review but can't find it. I remember there was something strange about a big hunk of bread ... Today, clean slate. Hubby and I wanted to take food home with us. Nathifa was polite and pleasant but I had to ask her to repeat what she said, louder. So soft-spoken, I couldn't hear her initially. Hubby ordered 1/2 pound of pulled pork to go. We ordered 1/2 pound of brisket for me. I've just eaten much of the brisket and it was definitely the best part of my meal. I did add sauce to it. My one complaint with the brisket: I ordered shredded (not chopped). It was shredded but not well. There were a couple of pieces that were the size of my three center fingers! Hubby had the exact same complaint about his pulled pork. For sides, we chose the braised greens and BBQ beans. I was so looking forward to the greens which are shown on the menu board as "Collard Greens." They seriously needed some heat; a good dose of Tabasco would have helped by providing both heat and acid. Additionally, the bites of bacon were under-cooked. They should have been cooked fully so that they'd add a crunch factor. Hours later, I reheated the Collard Greens and leftover shredded brisket. I added Tabasco and lemon juice. The leftovers were much better than what I'd eaten earlier. The BBQ beans initially had a good flavor (sweet) but I found the combination of beans to be weird. There are three beans, one of which is the black bean. The black beans just didn't belong. Also, there are bits of something red; red bell pepper, maybe? It adds nothing good to the dish; it just adds to the weirdness of the beans. We ordered two slices of Texas Toast which were, of course, cold when we got home. Both slices looked good on one side but were somewhat burnt on the reverse side. This lunch was $43. This was a disappointing meal. The last two times we got food from Big B's Texas BBQ, the food was horrible. We were hoping to get a good meal from Bell's. We didn't. So the search for good barbecue continues.

nt to Bell's BBQ with my mom. The food was amazing. I got the ribs with Mac and cheese and potato salad. I personally felt like I didn't even need to put bbq sauce on the ribs because the dry rub was that good. The people working at the restaurant were also very nice. The restaurant itself was decorated pretty simply too. I would definitely go back here.

Delicious food. Great service. Feels like a down home environment. I got the brisket cheesesteak sandwich. It was awesome .

The potential is there for Bell's to be great, but the lack of attention with their food is disappointing. Our most recent experience is such a let down, and a health hazard. My chicken strips were placed into the to go container while they were so hot that plastic melted onto my food. They were overly salty, but the quality of chicken was decent. Our hush puppies were undercooked and had a raw flour taste. They were gooey. The Mac and cheese lacks any real flavor at all. I shoved some fried onions on top to try to save it. It's creamy, at least, but everything just falls short. Why put two cracker pieces on top but no seasoning? No paprika, pepper, or garlic? The cornbread tastes like a rich cake. Southern cornbread has a hint of sweetness - it's not dessert. The brisket was overly salty and heavy. There sadly wasn't one thing we liked. The desserts looked so good on the counter, but I felt hesitant to try them and I'm glad I didn't. They're a whopping $6.99 for a tiny jar of cake or pudding. I was excited to try Bell's again, because the first time I gave benefit of the doubt that I hadn't tried enough of the menu, and I was mostly just excited to have a BBQ spot in town. I saw they had boiled peanuts so we tried again and completely wasted our money. Call us picky, but we really feel Bell's can do better quality wise for the price. The one upside is that the customer service is fairly good.

Bell's BBQ for the 1st time and man was I happy I did! Over on the end of eastern. I ordered the recommended chopped brisket sandwich. Huge sandwich and delicious. Didn't realize it came topped with onion rings, so others might get a better value than me(I also didn't get the free pickles that come with it). I did however very much enjoy everything else. The 4 cheese Mac with the ritz crumbles is on point. The sandwich hearty & tasty. All that meat wedges in between 2 big pieces of garlic toast. Another great option besides Sin City Smokers closer to home. read more

I have been to a Mullins, rolling-smoke- and Jesse rays. Thought I would try Bells BBQ as it's local to me and although the service was inviting and friendly, the food was mediocre at best. My wife got the brisket plate and I got the baby back plate with the bbq beans and potato salad. Both my wife's brisket and my ribs were luke warm and the fried tater tots were burnt. The variety of bbq sauce they have is good but I won't be going back. For the money they charge there are many better BBQ options out there, a few of which are mentioned above. read more

We are locals here (part of the year here, part elsewhere). We eat out every single day. We recognize that the restaurant business is a difficult and tricky business to achieve success in. We eat in divey out of the way places and in high end restaurants (think Hank's in GVR). It is with this in mind we write reviews. Bells is hidden away in a small business center. It is worth discovering! We gave it a try for the first time and were dazzled by the quality, quantity, value and deliciousness of their BBQ. I personally LOVE good BBQ and am usually disappointed with most BBQ joints. Bell's is the exception! A small family run business with an excellent menu that will satisfy even those who are not BBQ aficionados. Wonderful starters, plates that are full and tasty that you can add additional items to. I've always thought it a flaw in the BBQ arena of offering plates of one thing, but not having some add-ons so patrons can try other stuff. As an example, I love ordering the pork plate, but I'd also like some ribs or chicken. Bell's has solved that problem with their wonderful menu. The meats were smoked and delicious. The plates were full and the sides (I'm partial to the mac and the beans) are big. The seating is comfortable casual and the chatter, service and attention is excellent. The pricing is really good for what you get - knowing that good BBQ is not a "cheap eats" but when one receives quality and quantity for the money they pay, they walk away happy. We commend Bell's to you and urge you to satisfy the BBQ craving in their small restaurant. You won't be disappointed! read more

I have been here three times. The first time around the ribs and brisket were just okay to me. The only reason I kept coming here is for their Pork belly. Not allot of places sell it, when ever I see it anywhere i go I always order it and here it did not disappoint! It's cooked perfectly. I never eat in I always take it to go and it never makes it home. Haha Another thing that they never advertise but they really should is their Chicken wings. They have some of the best wings I've ever had. Better than Buffalo Wild wings or where ever! I've only had a few of their sauces but the ones I've had so far have been great! Mustard BBQ, Traditional Buffalo, this sweet and spicy sauce. That pretty much somes up this review Their Pork Belly and Wings are why I come here. read more

well the interior was clean and neat, not really a true bbq ambiance but this place claims to be chef inspired, and its close to Anthem so that may account for the fancy decore. I ordered a variety of meats and sides. the meats mostly tasted okay but were obviously reheated. I could not see a smoker but could smell the smoke. When I asked what type they used, the gal replied hesitantly, Apple I think. Smelled stronger than apple. The pork Belly was fresh and crispy, the sides were just okay although the fried cauliflower was good.The sauces were good. The Smores jarred dessert was cold - I guess I expected it to be hot but was tasty. The place was not busy at all- Two Tables in the middle of lunch hour..so? but in a great location. read more

I don't judge a BBQ place for its meats, anyone can smoke meat. I judge a BBQ joint for its sauces and sides. There are some other nearby places but this one is by far the best I've had in Vegas. It reminded me a lot of classic Western NC BBQ. I ordered a pork a la carte, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and mac and cheese. Having had those ill probably be back for the okra, baked beans, corn coblet, and coleslaw. Maybe even a pickle stick. Possibly one of those sweet jars. So yeah this was all delicious. I picked it up and brought it home, roughly a 10 minute drive. Everything was still warm but I'm sure the drive made the cauliflower and Brussels sprouts a little less crispy. It was still delicious and I ate them all! This left much less room for the pork and mac & cheese, but I still had to try them. The pork was a bit dry but I got a nice serving of House BBQ sauce. It's a standard sauce, a bit on the sweet side. My dog definitely enjoyed the scraps I gave her. The mac & cheese is definitely homemade and worth getting. I'll be back. It's a small space but there was an outdoor table or three if you wanted to do that. read more

I wouldn't even call this place BBQ. I doubt they even own a smoker. Maybe a couple of big crockpots. Sides tasted like lunchroom food. Ribs were very dry. If I was them I would stop selling what they call brisket immediately. This "brisket", I hate even calling it that because it was more like roast beef. It had zero smoke flavor. Very dry. It tasted like grandmas roast beef and not grandma in her prime; more like grandma is forgetful and leaves the roast beef in the crockpot for about a week. Disgraceful to BBQ. read more

I have barbecue not too long ago. It was very good my total was about $70. I drove a little ways to taste your barbecue the only complaint I have is why I did not give them five stars is that toast bread is way too salty, with the season is out they put on. And the potato salad is not good. It doesn't have any seasoning on it they need to put some relish in it and a little bit salt and Pepper. And maybe a dash of mustard in it would be good.

First let me say I tried this place for the first time on Fathers Day. I placed a large order from grubhub. Everything was really good but I ordered a lb of sliced brisket and they brought me chopped, but other than that fantastic. Best cornbread I have ever had. On July 4th I placed another large order. The brisket was sliced this time and was delicious. However the brussel sprouts were burned so badly they got tossed out, the cornbread was burned and unpleasant and the pulled chicken was not pulled. I called grubhub and said I understand they are probably busy and everything was great except these 3 items that made up only about 20% of my order. There was no need to send new ones but a refund of these items seemed appropriate. So grubhub called the restaurant and called me back. They told me the restaurant owner was not going to issue a refund because he wanted to personally call me and offer compensation but they were busy so he would contact me later or the following day. It has been 3 days and I have heard nothing. I really wanted to love this new place close to my house because I love bbq and the first order was great. I was even willing to give them another chance after the bad order because I understand they must have been very busy. But failing to correct this issue left a worse taste in my mouth than their burnt nasty food that they allowed to leave their kitchen. And if I can't rely on a bbq place to give me hood bbq on the number one grilling holiday of the year then they are useless to me. Could you imagine a pizza joint that can't deliver good pizza on Super Bowl? ***update*** The day I wrote this review I received this message from the owner: "Yes, before I issue a refund I want to speak to the person and hear about the issue so not only I can try and fix it, but stop it from happening again. I asked the GrubHub rep for your info, wouldn't give it to me for some weird reason, so I said to please have the customer call me directly. Seems like there was some miscommunication, and instead of our 3rd 1-star review ever, I wish you would have called the restaurant you ordered from so we could have hopefully earned a higher review. Sorry about your food, and my philosophy would be to order from a mom and pop bbq restaurant on another day besides the 3 busiest days of the year And not from a third party delivery partner. Maybe then you could get an accurate pulse on what the food SHOULD be like. Again, so sorry, and hope to serve you again in the future." I am not sure how to feel about this message.

I was in desperate need to find a spot that makes black eyed peas like what I just experienced while down south. I'm also a fan of potato salad and love me some deviled eggs, so I thought this was the spot for me. I ordered the fried catfish dinner with the potato salad and b.e.p's... Well, I'm sorry to say the sides were disappointing. The black eyed peas were on the hard side, like they weren't allowed to soak long enough. No amount of hot sauce can fix hard beans. The potato salad had very large chunks of potatoes that were also too hard, I couldn't believe it... The catfish w/bbq tarter sauce on the other hand was outstanding!... I still can't help but feel sad that I literally paid $20 and only ate the catfish because the sides weren't cooked thoroughly, I had to toss them out unfortunately. On a positive note, the restaurant is clean and has good vibes and the gentleman at the register was pleasant. read more

Wow! Moved to Henderson from the deep South just a few weeks ago, I've been looking for a BBQ place and tried Bells today. Hands down the BEST meal I've had since moving here. Tried the brisket with house sauce-holy yum! Red beans and rice were top notch, super flavorful. And those fried onions? Perfect in every way. It's a wee bit of a drive from our place and I'll happily do it at least once a week now. Staff was friendly as can be too. I really wanted to snap a pic but are everything before I could. If you love BBQ or want some serious southern eats- this is the best place! read more

Beef ribs: 1 star. Like a couple of other reviews, I ordered 3 beef ribs a la carte. They were dry, hard and little to no meat on them. And when I say hard, I mean chewing on your shoe hard. This is coming from a guy who will eat the hardest and driest beef jerky around. It felt like taking $15 and throwing that $15 in the garbage. It was like paying to eat old gum off the bottom of my shoe. Avoid at all costs. Brisket: 3 stars. This was a lot better but just about anything would be better than the beef ribs. It was average at best. Somewhat soft, decent amount of fat, but basically no taste. My family took one bite and we all started dumping their sauce on it. GREAT brisket doesn't need sauce and is so soft and juicy, it's like a softer filet mignon. This was like fatty tri tip. 3 cheese mac: 3 stars. It was cheesy but could've used some seasoning. But a decent amount of it. So average. Caesar salad: 4 stars. Tasty. The guy behind the desk assured me this was great BBQ. I've had far superior BBQ than my initial trial run. I'll give this place another shot and try their pork ribs before completely writing it off. But half of our dinner on this first pass went straight to the trash. read more

I loved this place until today, we ordered a baby back dinner and a brisket dinner to go. The baby backs were very good, but the brisket went straight to the garbage, unfortunately it was 90 percent fat! I did call and they offered to replace it but we opted to not return and to just share the ribs because of the hassle. Very disappointed as this has been a go to place for bbq. Follow up, Stephanie one of the owners reached out to me immediately to make it right, the restaurant is truly a great place for bbq, so I am crazy happy that she is going to take action so that we can continue to enjoy their bbq as we have in the past. I really think after talking to her it's more of an issue with new employees than food product. read more

I love their beef ribs which is only offered on Thurs and Sundays and they always sell out. The staff is always so friendly and patient with you when ordering. The sides are abundant with the Mac and cheese a favorite. The brisket is tender and the pulled pork is tasty. The sides are good, tater tots instead of fries, cole slaw that's fresh, and basic beans are also offered. We go there specifically for the beef ribs which are meaty and hearty. Adding the variety of sauces they offer elevates the ribs to another level. The one thing I personally didn't care for is the bread. It's kinda dense and a filler. I wish cornbread was offered instead. This isn't a fancy place, it's a little hard to get too, and street construction makes it worse. However, for BBQ lovers this is a must on your bucket list if place to dine when in Henderson or visiting The Las Vegas area.

So instead I got the smoked chicken, pulled pork, and hot link + a side of mac and cheese. Everything was delicious and I was so full after. I'd say it's pretty worth the price too. Definitely need to come back again and try the brisket. Also, a must try for all their sauces, I forgot which one but the vinegar one was my favorite, and pairs well with everything.

The Dam....Hot at first didn't taste hot but the burn snuck up on me within a few minutes my lips and tongue was on Fire!! After that I tried the Spicy it was sweet and tasty about the same hotness. Can't wait to come back. Sorry no pics as my hands and fingers were a BBQ Sauce mess. The fried Okra was pretty good and tasty Rolling Smoke gave me big portion.

It's located off the Strip in a somewhat hidden, out-of-the-way plaza, which gives it more of a local, low-key feel. One thing I noticed right away was that the menu posted in the lobby didn't have prices, but the menu behind the register did. They have a huge selection of food, so there are plenty of options to choose from. We ordered the burnt ends, brisket, mac and cheese, chicken sliders, meatloaf, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and cornbread. The brisket was unfortunately overcooked, although the burnt ends were good. The meatloaf was okay but definitely not the best I've had. The mac and cheese was good, and the mashed potatoes were actually really good. The chicken sliders were just okay, and the cornbread didn't really stand out. Overall, I was a little disappointed because the reviews had me expecting something exceptional. Everything was decent, but honestly, the meal was pretty mediocre for me. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really blew me away either. I'd still give it four stars because there were several good items, the menu has a lot of variety, and our overall experience was fine. However, based on the ratings, I definitely expected more.

Definitely warm and inviting, lots of tables to sit at. I was greeted warmly when I came in. Told her it was my first time and she was very excited.

The hash browns were cooked to perfection, and whatever Hollandaise sauce they put on that thing is wonderful. I definitely should have asked for extra. The meat was Smoky and perfectly cooked, and made for a very delightful meal. Added bonus, they have a fully stocked bourbon bar that looked very appetizing. It was only 8:30 in the morning so I really didn't feel right about doing an old fashioned, but I will definitely be coming back here on a Friday night for their rib special and I'll have an old fashioned bin and report back. Bottom line? Everything here is wonderful. I have no complaints and it was a absolutely perfect for star meal. If you are anywhere in the area I say go check it out.

I love Texas barbecue Chicago BBQ, Carolina BBQ. There is so many good places that do meats. I usually don't go to chains because it just tends to be repetitious. But I do make an exception for Lucille's. I have been to this particular restaurant numerous times, and it never disappoints. Most of the time I go there for lunch, because they have such good lunch specials. One of the things I like is the diversity of meats that they have. You can get ribs, brisket, pulled pork, all kinds of goodness on a plate that will not break the bank. My usual go-to is the three meats, and I often pair it with a side salad to start.. just to pretend like I'm being healthy. I do have to brag on their sauces, they're spicy. Barbecue sauce is really really good and doesn't blow off the top of your head. It adds a nice spicy profile to the meat which is already smoked and charred to perfection. And can we talk for a moment about the banana pudding? It is the perfect capper for a meal and makes you feel like you are smack dab in the middle of the South.

Usually it's just to fly out of Las Vegas for a work trip. This time though, I was in area for the US Post office. Looking for nearby places to eat, I saw that Smoke & Fire was only 10 minutes away! My husband and I stopped by for dinner around 3:30 P.M on a Friday at Smoke & Fire. The restaurant is located near South Pecos Road and East Russell Road. There was plenty of parking spots available. As I walked inside the restaurant, a team member had greeted us and let us know that it was open seating. There were only a few other customers inside the restaurant at the time we had dinner. There was plenty of tables inside and outside the restaurant though! TVs were situated throughout the restaurant. There was a variety of sports games playing. When we sat at our table, the team member brought over menus and asked if we'd like anything to drink while we looked through the menu. She also went through any dietary restrictions and some of their highlights at the restaurant, specifically, Smoke & Fire is known for their blueberry chicken sandwich. There are other options on their menu though, like BBQ items! Meat platters: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, Brisket, Smoked Ribs, Hot Links, smoked Chicken Quarters. Sandwiches: Chicken Sandwiches, Brisket Sandwich, Donut Smashed Burger (Seasonal), Sliders Chicken and Waffles, Street Style Tacos, Chicken Tenders and more! After looking through the menu, we ultimately decided on the following 3 Meat Platter: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, and Brisket with Mac N Cheese/Sweet Potato Tots The World Famous Blueberry Chicken Sandwich: Pepper Jack Cheese, Housemade Blueberry Jam, blueberry aioli, and Jalapeno. The service was super quick. I don't think we waited longer than 10 minutes for our meal. It was nice that our meal was served in to go containers as well! The highlight of the meal was the blueberry chicken sandwich. The chicken was juicy and tender. The blueberry aioli and the jam was scrumptious. This was a first time having a sandwich like this before! I would come back to Smoke & Fire just to get the sandwich. The BBQ pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket was good. I enjoyed the mac n cheese and the sweet potato tots though! I don't normally see sweet potato tots so I just had to try it out! They were super crispy and packed with flavor. The food was yummy here and the service was fantastic! If I'm in the area again, I would stop by Smoke & Fire to have another meal. I think next time though, I am going to have to try out their pulled pork burger!

The skinny on this place is that Henderson actually has been getting some interesting food…read more Hog & Tradition launched last year in a repurposed SkinnyFATS space (also negating the Blaze of Thunder drive-thru cooncept), proudly proclaiming the arrival of Dominican-influenced BBQ. It appears that they've streamlined the concept a little, paring the sandwich menu from 9 down to 4 and the sides from 10 to just 6. Fortunately, there are still 5 proteins, and my friend and I tried all of them when we each ordered a Combo Plate 3 ($28.00), which comes with 3 meats and 2 sides. Smoked Brisket (+$2.00 for selecting this protein): seemingly cut from the flat end of the brisket, but with a healthy layer of fat on one side. Fell apart a little too easily, thus not meeting the technical requirements of brisket. Tasted pretty good overall aside from the smoke being mild, and went well with all the sauces and the chimichurri too. Pork Belly Chicharron: perhaps the actual intended recipient of the chimichurri. Crispy on the outside, melty on the inside. Goes well with any of the sauces. My 2nd favorite of the proteins. Pulled Pork: a serviceable, tender pulled pork. Just not that exciting. 3 St. Louis Ribs: perhaps actually my favorite since it was very tender and the most obviously smoked of any of the meats. Chicken Quarter: thigh and drum. Lots of Montreal steak seasoning, per my friend, which reminded me of lemon pepper. Juicy and tender. Not as inherently flavorful as my preferred pork proteins. Sides: pretty solid overall. Mac and cheese was solid, creamy coleslaw was refreshing but not strictly needed, collard greens were fine but not very intense, baked beans were sweet and tender. Ube Cornbread comes with the combo and is great. The ube flavor is prominent, and I enjoyed it both with and without butter. The pickles included in the combo were fine but not amazing. Sauces: they aren't amazing, but they do the job. The sweet mustard could have been developed more, and the hot BBQ wasn't that hot, but they all added enough flavor. The chimichurri in my combo didn't hit as intensely as I usually find it; maybe a different vinegar was subbed in? I got a cup for soda ($3.00) and tried to do an Arnold Palmer, but the unsweetened iced tea must have had peach flavor since the only other components were ice and lemonade. Not unwelcome, just different than I expected. The ceiling fans probably helped keep us cool enough, but they were also running a bit too strongly considering their thin paper towels. None of the TVs were tuned to the Stanley Cup Finals for some reason, just some old or offseason NFL coverage. Hog & Tradition is a fun spot that brings a few twists to a solid take on BBQ. It doesn't strike me as a Dominican-leading spot in its current form, and a lot of the smoke is subtle at best, but nothing which I tried today was unlikeable. This is a must-try for pork belly fans all over the valley or carnivores in general in Henderson.

Took my family here, had heard about it, I live a block away, and I walked past it once and it was really charming inside with the decor and lighting. Wife and I both ordered the brisket, got the pulled pork for my little boy. The brisket tasted great but could have been hotter. I loved the bread it was served on. The battered fried onions were a great touch as well. Downsides? Why 3 stars? Well, all of our sides were warm. Warm is kind of an understatement actually. They were almost warm. I had grits for the first time in my life. I ordered the cheese and grits. It was a cup of grits with shredded cheddar on top. The chedder looked like it had just been grabbed out of a fridge or bowl. I was expecting it to be melted a little. It wasn't. The grits probably tasted good, but the almost warmness of them made me dislike them. My wife and my son got the mac n cheese. Wasn't impressed, it was bland and tasteless. It was also barely warm. The fries were great. Came in a neat little brown bag-basket with an assortment of potatoes and cuts (criss-cut, ridged, traditional, sweet potato, curly). Wife's mashed potatoes tasted good, but once again, the almost warmness of them was off-putting. We shared a red velvet jar. It made up for the warm sides. My wife loved my son's pulled port sandwich. Ultimately, I'll most likely go back at some point to try more things from the menu. The restaurant is charming and I enjoyed being there. I enjoyed most of my food as well. The bits I did enjoy, I really enjoyed. read more

My husband and I went out to eat here tonight. We were driving around aimlessly not knowing what we really wanted. We spotted this place and figured we would give it a shot since we hadn't had BBQ in quite a while. Family owned & operated which is something my husband and I love & do in our personal business as well. Reasonably priced. Food came out quick, presentation was nice, the food was BEYOND my expectations (BBQ is a hard food to master for some places) so delicious!! Staff is kind and personable. Very welcoming, helpful, with a comfortable and casual vibe. Even with the new COVID-19 things in place, it they did great. (Distanced seating, staff is wearing masks, the typical guidelines) Food and drinks delivered to your table. They check on you just enough to where you get what you need (refills, to-go containers, etc.) But you don't feel like your being "bugged". Perfect balance of customer service! Highly recommend. We will be repeat customers! #VegasStrong read more

We visited this spot hoping to try the beef rib, but unfortunately, it wasn't available that day. Instead, we went for the brisket, which turned out to be a bit dry and needed some sauce to enhance the flavor. The mashed potatoes were decent, but the "mac" n cheese, made with penne, didn't quite hit the mark for us. As for the sides, we skipped the baked beans and collard greens since they're made with pork. However, the fries were a delightful mix of straight-cut, criss-cut, curly, crinkle, and sweet potato, adding a fun variety to the meal. Despite some of the misses, we're still intrigued by a few other menu items. We definitely want to return to try the beef rib and pulled chicken. It's also worth noting they offer a beef hot link, though we didn't see any regular beef links. While we'd consider going back for takeout, we'd probably cook our own veggies at home to avoid the pork. Overall, there are enough promising options to warrant another visit. read more

I visited Bell's BBQ expecting a great dining experience. Unfortunately, the service was horrible. The food has no flavor. And it took a long time to get our orders, my dish was overcooked and lacking flavor. The portion size was also smaller than expected. . I hope the takes these suggestions seriously and makes the necessary improvements to provide a better dining experience. The owner seemed more interested in defending the business than listening to our concerns, shame on her. 0/0 star Trashy food read more

Threw us out because we have a certified service dog. Really really sad!! Will never come back or recommend. Staff was terribly rude and owner yelled at us and made a scene. Bad business for small business!! This is the FIRST time we have ever had this experience. How awful and really unprofessional this owner was towards us. She said she was having a bad day. She didn't make ours any better. Always have to be cautious of folks that don't love animals!! read more

I'm usually not a big fan of BBQ, but this place was honestly the best I've ever been. Not only was the food amazing, but the staff was great as well! I enjoyed a pulled pork sandwich with their special Mac n cheese and greens that was all cooked perfectly! I'm not sure his name, but I believe it was Belile, very charming young man that took my order and served my group. Ill definitely be back here soon! read more

Phenomenal sustenance. Can make substantial requests to go on speedy notice. Well disposed administration. Delightful sweets. The reason I gave 4 stars is on the grounds that the St. Lois ribs we had appeared half-cooked and greasy. read more

There was only 1 person working, he was the server , cashier and cook. We placed our food in advance through mobile and when we got there , he had barely seen our ticket. Also didn't bother me since he was cooking and serving a party. The ribs were just okay. The burnt ends and brisket were fairly dry. The SIDES!!!!! Are beyond tiny!! For 50+ plate before tip, the sides that came with it , you can eat in two bites ! That is what highly upset me and no drink included. Their toast was just wonder bread with butter. The wings however , were just okay.

I was staying at a nearby hotel, watching a Youtuber do a vid on this Wildfire Sunset place. It's super close to my hotel so what the heck, I gotta check this out for the super deal he showed on the vid. They have these food specials right on their website: $7 Food Specials Your Choice Of get this! 8 Wings, Side of Fries, & 16oz. Domestic Beer Or Double Cheeseburger & Fries ... all that for just $7.00 bucks! Wildfire was close enough to walk, but I drove anyways, cause nobody WALKS in Vegas! Lots of parking! It's nice enough inside, the usual smaller gambling place. I decide to go for the $7.00 8 piece wing deal with fries and a beer! Maybe I'll get the double cheeseburger next time. The food arrives in a timely manner and wow, that's a ton of food for $7.00 bucks. The wings were both drumettes and paddles with a nice sauce. Fries were a smaller portion, but there just wasn't any more room on the plate to fit more! The beer was fine, just standard domestic tap. That was a decent filling meal, if I lived around here, I'd be here 2 or 3 times a week! Service was fine.

I usually stay at sunset station. For some reason, the brass fork was closed for the night. So we…read moredrove up on this place about 1am. Not a single car in the parking lot. Is it NOT 24 hrs?? I didn't want to go and find out. Ended up getting Wendy's. Boo.

Unfortunately she had an emergency and wasn't there which created a backlog for the only employee left who was trying to take care of the bar and tables. Despite it all she did a fair job of getting everyone taken care of. We did have to wait a while to order but the food came out quickly. The chicken wings were great and a good deal. 10 for $12.00. My first smash burger and not impressed but the fries were the best I ever had! The place was clean and had a big bar area. They have a semi separate area that must be for dinner. We would go back again for the wings and fries!
