    Another 5 star meal and service. Seated quickly, drinks always filled promptly and food arrives hot, fresh and quickly. The best thing is is that they bring out your special changes / orders made exactly as requested. A great place for people watching, along with a killer view of the kitchen and prep areas! Don't forget to join the club! It's a great way to save money or get "free food"!

    Great Service, food, and atmosphere! Stopped by for some breakfast this go round and they did not disappoint. Well worth it so make sure to get out and support the local eateries that help make Northern Nevada the special place it is. Hey but don't take my word for it check it out for yourself.

    We had lunch there today to get our fave calamaris. But the funny thing (and frustrating) , was they failed to deliver it as our appetizer because they had problems in the kitchen. Someone must have not put the tab or maybe it was forgotten. Appetizers are suppose to be served before your entree. Anyway, things happen and we've been there several times and it does not stop us from going there. I ordered Shrimp Scampi. It was pretty good, though i'm not a fan of angel hair. But having that aside, it was decent taste but i wished they'd marinated the shrimp or else it would not have so much taste when mixed with noodles. I say 7/10.

    This breakfast is delicious! I was blown away with the options. Everything I read made my mouth water. They also have great deals on mimosas! Which I am a huge fan of. The service is impeccable! Everyone kind and attentive! Felt like I was back in the south! The restaurant its self was rustic and felt homie. I truly enjoyed my time there.

    What a wonderful evening at BJ's barbecue in Sparks Nevada, they were nine of us in our waitress was beyond great. She made sure we had all our orders and in all our drinks and kept calming around to make sure everything was all right with us all the food that we had we all stated it was delicious the ribs, the salad that pulled pork sandwiches they had a potato with pulled pork, sour cream and the kids all ate it so we definitely book could be going back because the place was crowded but our service was still outstanding. Thank you BJ's for a wonderful evening.

    Friendly staff and great service. Ordered a barbecue sampler plate with pulled pork, chicken, and their award winning ribs. All 3 meats were moist, very tender and tasty. Will be back!

    Corned Beef with Coleslaw
    Rob Y.

    My friend and I were wanting Corned beef being as though it was St. Patrick's Day . BJ's is a well known local favorite and I hadn't been here for a very long time. My friend practically lives on sandwiches so I trusted her judgement here. I have to admit I hadn't had a Corned Beef sandwich in a very long time. BJ's hadn't changed inside since I was there ions ago., which is fine. That down home Western theme works well with BBQ. We both ordered the Corned Beef on Rye which included a side, mine I ordered coleslaw and hers with fries. The waitress was very pleasant and provided us with extra napkins which we definitely needed. Our eyes popped out of our heads when the sandwiches arrived, they were generously piled with the beef on a nice marbled rye. It took a minute to cut it in half. And as I bit into it was tender and delicious. I spread on this great ground spicy mustard which made it even better. The coleslaw was really good with just the right balance of tart and sweet. Both of us could only finish half and Togo boxes were in order. I will make a comment about the price, over $20 dollars for that sandwich, but It definitely was enough for two meals and we both left extremely satisfied.

    Beef Brisket and ribs
    Brandon F.

    Craving bbq? This place has you covered. Great food at decent prices. It was a little crowded when we went so I'd recommend calling beforehand. We ordered a little bit of everything. The ribs were great as well as the brisket. The corn bread stood out as well. We'll be going back for sure soon.

    Great choice for your next BBQ meal. Ample parking is available. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. There are lots of options on the menu. The prices were fair for the amount of food we got. My husband and I went for lunch. We sat at the bar and had prompt friendly service. We placed our order and the server said the the food would be right out. She wasn't kidding!! We got our hot, delicious food within what seemed just a few minutes after we ordered. My husband ordered the Crazy Ass platter and I ordered a Pulled Pork sandwich with a side of mashed potatoes. We both opted for the mild sauce which didn't disappoint. We were both full fairly quickly and brought leftovers home. We will be sure to come back soon to try other items on the menu.

    The catfish Omg…read more Granted, catfish is not for everyone. But this, this was great! Perfect batter, perfect seasoning, crispy outer, fluffy, tender moist meat on the inside. Not a bone in one of them. Paired with the dirty rice side and a corn bread muffin, this was a meal I haven't had since I left Arkansa over 20 years ago. The catfish was great! The rest of our party was generally pleased. The fried potato wedges were really done nicely, and cold mashed potatoes were excellent. Oddly, must have been an off night, the brisket was chewy than gas station jerky. That's anomalous for this restaurant though, this was the second time I've been here, and it wasn't like that last time. I like the simple clean decor. Not gaudy, not overly done, clean and neat. The service is generally good! Oddly, each time we had a male server, there is a curt attitude to them. The female staff were great though. Polite, attentive and willing to help. One server assisted excellently with a language barrier and the menu. Thank you miss. All in all. Turning into a favorite BBQ place. Well try here one more time to see about consistency. Well worth the visit though Try the catfish

    I'm sorry to say this is not my favorite BBQ spot in town. My husband and I came in for lunch, and,…read morelike most Famous Dave's locations, it has a cute Western feel. We sat in a booth in the bar area. Our first mistake may have been skipping the $35 Feast for 2-sday special and ordering from the lunch menu instead. My husband chose the Texas beef brisket sandwich with BBQ chips, and I ordered the two meat combo with pulled pork, burnt ends, and coleslaw. There was only one server in the bar area, so it took a while for our food to arrive, but it did come out hot. As for the food, the pulled pork was tasty but didn't really have that smoked flavor. It reminded me more of something I could make in a slow cooker. The burnt ends were disappointing. I'm used to them being caramelized with a bit of a crust, but these were soft and even a little mushy. The coleslaw was good. My husband felt the same about his brisket. It lacked smokiness and was a bit too soft. The chips were tasty, but didn't have much BBQ seasoning. Although Famous Dave's is close to our house, we're willing to drive a little farther for better BBQ.

    SIU Korean barbecue is solid Korean barbecue restaurant. I've come here many times over the years…read moreand appreciate the authenticity of the menu and experience. The menu is full of cups of meat and not found at the other KBBQ restaurant and generally speaking quality is there on all of it. We enjoyed the birthday celebration here the other night, and discovered a few new favorites, including the pork GALBI, which is delicious, sweet, tender cuts of lean pork marinated in the sweet sowing which grows up wonderfully and delivers a nice char. I also am a huge fan of the Sydney slice of beef tongue that cooks chicken. Did that in a little bit of sesame oil salt or add a bit of the seasoning spice from your condiment tray and throw that in lettuce or radish wrap, and you are set. They also offer a couple of specialty cuts at dinner only like the thousand stripe and premium GALBI, which is a crosscut beef short rib. I personally think their short rib is the best in town as it comes out nicely marinated and extremely tender with just the right amount of fat versus some of the others that I've tried which have a substantial amount of fat versus meat. There was also a specialty cut of fatty pork that I cannot remember the Korean Nemo, but that took a long time to cook, even though it was in sliced, but then result was this delightfully crispy piece of meat that could be eaten on its own or added to another wrap that you were creating and was quite enjoyable. The reason for decreasing into four stars is just service. That's where the other KBBQ has this place beat. Part of a we were seated at two tables right next to each other and for some reason, it seemed one table received more attention than the other and after a point it seemed that the server just stopped coming back altogether, and they also forgot items multiple times throughout the meal left water glasses on filled and didn't clear place on the act. Normally not a big deal but you're consuming so much as a larger party and you're dealing with brought meat. You are putting your diners at risk for not helping to make sure that we maintain a clean and sanitary dining experience. Even to the end of the meal, the server did not come back to see if we wanted to order more food or bring us a check and I had to get up and go to the front to ask for it. Lastly, I was shocked that they did not have any hot sake in the restaurant to order nor did they offer any type of dessert either included or for purchase. We came to celebrate a birthday and can't be the only people that stop here for special occasions, so I would assume that there are people that want that when they're dying here and it was just surprising to hear that. Again, this is a great Korean barbecue spot and then I will certainly return to you and hope that the service experience improved so that the dining experience overall is that much better.

    I love KBBQ! This is a fun experience for sure. The food was good albeit a bit pricy for how much…read more(little) my partner and I can eat, but worth it as a treat for the experience. Yelp Elites Michael T and Kathy B are right about the meat sweats!! It's been a few weeks since we went so I can't recall all of the meats we tried, but the spicy pork belly is one I remember as it was delightful. The kimchi stew is INCREDIBLE, and I enjoyed the banchan a lot. Depending on where you sit, either a server or robot cart with a cute face will deliver your food and drink. I'm generally anti-robot, but these are adorable! The ambiance is nice, but prepare to get pretty smoky. They do a great job of swapping grills often to prevent some of this, but smoke happens. Definitely will be back in the future!
