    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

    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 kind staff let me in a few mins before opening to enjoy the warmth! What a beautiful view!

    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.

    Brothers Barbecue was a great place! Our food was phenomenal, the food was great, and the service was very quick. If you are interested in their popular items like brisket, I would suggest going earlier in the day.

    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!

    Totally cleared plate.....

    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.

    First time won't be the last. From Melissa greeting me at the door my first time here & by the time I left I felt like a regular.. She helped me through the menu & had me order the smoked sausage little kick but went phenomenal w the potato salad & corn bread! I'll be back for the bbq & home eating feeling.

    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.

    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!

    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!

    Is the smoked turkey still a menu option?

    Yes, every Thursday.

    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!

    FINALLY! got the chance to go try this place out. As we walked through the doors what did I smell??…read moreSmoke, yep the sweet sweet smell of meats smokin' on the pit. I went in big like a starving hostage and ordered a half rack of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, a Habanero Jalapeño Cheddar sausage link and a side of mac and F'n Cheese! My wife, she had the pulled chicken and a salad. First taste was the brisket, gotta go in for the brisket. The bark was so flavorful and there was the distinct smoke flavor. Unlike another place I've been to, this place was smoke forward and that's the vibe I like. Not bitter, but a good smoke. The pulled pork was out of this world and the ribs were just about perfect. Not fall off the bone but a great clean bite through. I know, I know everyone wants fall off the bone but hear me out, THAT'S JUST OVERCOOKED! Now let's talk about this sausage. If you aren't prepared for some serious heat (I should have known by the name) don't be a hero here. That link is damn hot. Like satan's b-hole hot. Flavor is amazing but it's hot as pawnshop wedding ring. I gotta say this place has got my attention. Not that it need my attention particularly, but you have it anyway. When I go to a BBQ restaurant, I want to taste smoke. That's what I'm there for. Butcher's Kitchen did not dissapoint. THEN!! the best part of the night was when they brought me and my wife back and showed us the smokers!! Like wizard of oz, ruby slippers, man behind the curtain sh*t, they showed me the damn smokers! Gave us the full tour of their amazing pits. Top notch man, top notch! You have a forever fan here. I will not rest until I've tasted everything on that menu twice over. Thank you so very much for your food and your hospitality. Continue to do what you do. Oh and the girl loved the chicken and salad, truly. Smoke and Destroy!!

    Another successful visit to Royce Burger!

It was a beautiful evening and we enjoyed the outside patio dining with our dog. They took our order quickly and the burgers came out pretty quick as well, within 30 min or so. Burgers were great as always, and we added the side of fries with fry sauce, a winning combination all the way around! Haven't had a bad experience yet, I love Royce burger!

We ordered the Imperial Japanese Chicken Wings, the Frenchified Burger, and an order of poutine. The star of the meal was the chicken wings with the wasabi ranch dipping sauce. The seasoned shoestring fries served alongside were also excellent. The burger was very good, but it was essentially meat, sauce, and cheese. I like a little freshness on my burgers, so I was missing some lettuce and tomato. Fortunately, I substituted a salad for the fries and ended up piling most of it onto the burger. Next time, I'll just ask for those toppings to be added. The poutine, however, didn't quite live up to the versions I've had elsewhere. I'm not sure if they used white cheddar curds, but they were almost completely melted instead of retaining that signature squeaky texture. The gravy was just okay, and I don't think shoestring fries are the best choice for poutine since they don't hold up as well under the toppings. Overall, I'd definitely come back--especially for the wings and another burger.

The chopped pork and brisket were okay, but we thought a lot of the flavor was carried from the BBQ sauce instead of the meat. The decor inside has that BBQ joint feel with some nice pig paraphernalia and Nevafa stuff. Shayla our server was very nice and courteous and made us feel right at home. My only critique involves another server who seemed very chatty with a couple who sat next to our table. She was talking with them a lot. She also made a comment after she noticed me taking photos of the inside saying "you can easily spot out the first timers." I think that's something a server should keep to themselves instead of mentioning it out loud. But that's me. I would've given this review 3.5 stars if I could just for that.

Yes, the brisket was actually INEDIBLE! It was dry, tough, rubbery, tasteless. The only way I could even power a couple of bites down was soaking it in the BBQ sauce. At least the chicken I had with it was moist and had SOME flavor. I had the grits and cheddar as one side and it's like they put them in a food processor. Grits should be gritty, not smooth like paste ( I promise I don't eat paste). The Costco applesauce was the best thing I had. We literally had to go out to lunch again. Our service was blah but at we were only charged for one meal. Not sure who finds this place acceptable, but I shall never return. Dammit! JimG

These burgers aren't cheap, so definitely savor every bite. The butcher shop is great as well. We are big fans of the bourbon tri-tip. Prices have gone up recently (as with everything else).
