Upon entering, we were greeted by a lady with black frame glasses and dark long hair (I wish I got her name but I was to excited to order since it was my 1st time there and it's been on my list of places to go to!) at the register. She was awesome in guiding me on ordering and even checking on how I was doing throughout my entire time there! GREAT customer service that had me feeling like I was at home! The BARBECUE PLATE -1/2 RACK OF PORK RIBS (6 BONES) comes with one side and a chunk of cornbread. The ribs were cooked perfectly and they were good sized too! I LOVED the HOWLIN' BOLD & SPICY sauce! FIRE! The side I chose was the KICKED-UP SLAW which was crisp and fresh. I topped the cornbread with a little butter and honey and it was eaten all up. The POTATO SALAD was another on point side. BEST. BBQ PLATE. EVER for me in RENO! *I split this with a person and it was a good portion where you won't be put in a food coma hahaha Will be back again and get a full rack of pork ribs! Hahaha *The place is small with limited seats but it's worth it! The staff clears and cleans the tables once people are done eating to have it set for the next customer.
The food is delicious, the service good, and the ambiance is perfect with the decor and country atmosphere. In a house in midtown Reno, its a neat experience. Check it out.
Not getting the hype of this place. The Texas Tater was sorta okay. The baked potato was cooked nicely but had a strange chemical flavor to it. Almost a soapy taste. The pulled pork on top was dry. Decent flavor but I had to soak it in BBQ sauce. The BBQ sauces were very good at least. The sliced brisket sandwich was good. I ordered a small size and it was a decent amount of brisket on there. Good flavor and tender. It just wasn't that warm. It was cold. The Mac n cheese lacked flavor and the pasta was overcooked. Just mush and zero texture. Food came out instantly and the workers were all very friendly. Looked like a nice place. I really wanted to leave a better review.
Driving through and stopped by for lunch. Restaurant is in a converted house with a small parking area. Staff was friendly, took orders at the counter and brought everything out very quickly. Brisket was top notch! Tender with a great fat cap. Ribs and pulled pork were not as moist or tender as I prefer but had a good flavor. Mac and cheese and beans had a good flavor.
So, being the only meat eater amongst my friend group, going to a BBQ joint is a rare treat . I also wanted to come during non busy times because that way they can wow me. I ordered pulled pork and 2 sides ( the Mac and cheese was fabulous and the pork was good too) I was disappointed in the "kicking slaw" nothing kicking about it . The BBQ sauces were ok ( the howlin is the best one) service was top notch because I was the only one here on a Wednesday at 3pm I gave 5 stars because the service was fabulous the food was about 4 great spot tho, and the chairs ... meh
Good food, but a bit pricey. Ambiance is lovely and the workers are sweet. I would recommend the brisket and pulled pork. The beans are unfortunately not my fave, but still good for people that don't like the typical BBQ baked beans style.
Brisket is always my favorite here, the meat is so tender and juicy! Getting the combo plate is a great deal getting a good variety of food. The service is great and staff are very nice! Great location if you are midtown.
Ordered sliced and chopped brisket on line to go for dinner and they were good! The meat was soft and tender and the smokey taste made it a lot better. The service was exceptional! I scheduled to pick up at a certain time but running late and I got a call from them about my order. Will definitely go back and Can't wait to try their other barbecue.
Very good food. But, you have to get there early in the day to get the good stuff, like beef ribs. Service was great. People were very nice.
I was searching for the best bbq in Reno and this was recommended. I ordered this on DoorDash and it came super quick it was a little under $50 for 1/2 rack of lamb, coleslaw, beans, corn and Mac&cheese. Coleslaw: super tasty, you can't really mess this up. Mac and cheese: very underseasoned, came cold. Beans: lacked seasoning as well. Corn: was just okay Rack of lamb: it was really tough. It wasn't tender to chew. I didn't really enjoy this experience.
Delicious, authentic barbecue spot in Reno! I was looking for a lunch spot while in town, and some friends recommended Brothers. We tried the plate with brisket, sausage , cold slaw, and corn bread, as well as the mac n cheese bowl with brisket. Both were amazing!!! The house made bbq sauce on the tables paired perfectly. We left incredibly full. Service was fine and inside had a good amount of seating. Will be back next time I'm in town!
The business does not stand out on Center St. but worth finding the restaurant is worth it. Just the aroma when I walked in!
We had been meaning to come here for some time. Used my daughter's coming graduation as a reason for a meal out. We managed to catch a lull in their busy time, because right after we left we saw the groups coming in. We had help choosing what to order, because it all smelt and looked amazing. We each chose to order something slightly different from each other, but ate some off of each others plate. It all was super tasty. We chose to eat inside because of the heat and windy day, but could have easily seen eating outside otherwise. I would recommend if your looking for some tasty BBQ, come check them out.
What a tasty place! We had heard about this place from many people and finally made it. You can smell that they are legit just from the smell when you walk in! (And the constant line out the door!) We got the family pack and man, it was amazing. The cornbread was sweet and perfectly moist and served with butter and honey. We got the chopped brisket, ribs, pulled pork, Mac n cheese and beans. What an absolute feast! The sauce was the perfect complement to the entrees without overpowering anything. We loved mixing and matching all the goodies for a new perfect bite every time. We ordered to go and got food quickly considering it was a packed Saturday. We ended up sampling everything before leaving the restaurant because a table opened up. Can't wait to head back and try more of the menu. If you are looking for legitimate BBQ in Reno, this is the spot. read more
Back again on Hot August Nights for some barbecue. This time the family pack is $65. They were also out of sliced beef brisket. I don't know why they chop it! Leave them in slices even for sandwiches!! I love Brothers but they need to smoke and/or barbecue their pork ribs longer so that they fall off the bone! It was tough to eat even using a knife. The corn bread was yummy and I love the new howling barbecue sauce! Other than that we shall see you next year. read more

We were in the area and decided to eat here again. I ordered the shredded brisket sandwich with corn off the cob and my husband ordered the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw and a side of cornbread. The service was amazing! Everyone was very friendly and our food came out quickly . My Brisket sandwich melted in my mouth. The brisket was so tender and full of flavor on a soft bun. The corn was delicious too. It tasted so fresh with a hint of butter! My husband loved his pulled pork sandwich and coleslaw. The meal was delicious, friendly staff, and a comfortable ambiance that made you feel like you're in Nevada! read more
Brothers BBQ is absolutely fantastic! The service was excellent super friendly and fast. The BBQ was out of this world we had the pulled pork, chicken, sausage, and ribs, and everything was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The sides were just as impressive: creamy mac & cheese, delicious cornbread, hearty baked beans, and fresh coleslaw. You can tell they put care into every part of the meal. The atmosphere is great too there's a nice patio for outdoor seating and a cute western-style indoor area that adds charm. The parking lot is small, but there's usually street parking nearby. Definitely a must-try if you're a BBQ lover! read more
Today my husband and I went to Brother's Barbecue for the first time and it was excellent! First, the appearance of the restaurant is colorful and cute. It is in a little Victorian home with indoor and patio dining. I loved the stone cactus on each table. I would like to actually make my own now! The employees were friendly and helpful. The food was amazing! We both had tri tip sandwiches with one side. I chose the picnic macaroni salad. My husband chose the barbecue beans. The meat was lean but moist and full of smoky flavor. The buns were not soggy. A real plus! The sauce was great so we bought the BBQ rub spice and a bootle of their sauce to take home. We will definitely be back and recommend it to others!! read more

Amazing lunch. Pulled Pork was melt-in-your-mouth fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful. They checked on us even though we ordered at the counter. Atmosphere was pretty southern. The only difficulty was the parking. Not many spots and I didn't see any handicapped parking. Not saying it wasn't there but there were only a handful of spots to park and they were all full so we had to walk a block. I will definitely visit again though. By Uber or something. read more
Don't blink or you will go right past Brothers BBQ. You order and pay at the counter and they will bring your food to your table I ordered a plate with 3 ribs, hot sausage, mac n cheese, and a glass of sweet tea. The side portions are huge, enough for 2 persons. The spicy sausage was the equivalent of 2 link sausages. The ribs were cooked to perfection with the meat falling off the bone. The spicy sausage was as advertised: spicy hot and delicious. I have never been a big fan of mac n cheese, but this one won me over. I loved Brothers mac n cheese. My other side was their standard cole slaw and it was an excellent choice as it cooled the spicy hot and balanced the fat from the pork ribs. The flavors and textures complemented each other so well it was such a pleasureable dining experience. My glass of sweet ice tea was Just the way I remember it from a few decades ago - it was strong and not overly sweet. The only thing missing was the absence of dessert. My dining experience reminded me of a cookout at an expert grilling friend's home on a holiday. Brothers BBQ has a homey touch, nothing fancy, Just a great technique that will make me go again for more. Service was very good, as were the staff in answering questions. read more

casual happy place. what an adorable building. it's a house! converted into a business! charming. the lunch plate was fantastic. i was so excited for the meat and the slaw sides. always a good pairing. meat is flavorful and i love that there are more sauce bottles (a good variety too!) right on the table for you to add more. the burger doesn't come with sauce so you have to add your own, which you can control to your liking, based on how much you want. table and high chair seatings inside and more picnic tables inside read more

My review is strictly based on the taste of the food. I was very disappointed. Food lacked seasoning. They said they were known for their Mack and cheese. It was very boring tasting. Corn bread was not good. Beans weren't good either. The beans were called BBQ beans but taste like chilly beans which they let me know. That did confused me though. The BBQ sauce tastes too much like ketchup. On a positive note the lady at the cash register was nice. The vibe was cool. But I would never go back. read more

OMG! Best BBQ I've had in Reno. The portions, tenderness, and flavor of their meats and side dishes were to die for. The business is an old house converted to a local BBQ joint. What a quaint idea! Make sure you get there before they sell out and enjoy for those of you who decide to give it a try. Service is amazing to top it all off! read more

This place was busy when I went and I can see why! The workers were friendly and very attentive. I ordered their special of the day which was tri-tip. The food came out fast and was delicious! Generous portions. I would definitely recommend going here to get some barbecue. read more

Where do you get your beef from?
We get our Briskets and Tritip from a family operated regional distributor.
Does anyone have any experience with them catering a wedding, for example? Looking for feedback on pricing, quality, etc. Thank you!
In early July, Brothers catered our daughter's wedding for 100 people. I think everyone was happy with the food. Great taste and good value!
