Oh. My. Goodness. Just go. And try it all. ALL. Trust me. So much flavor in everything. I've never had so much flavor in a hot link. Or a chicken breast (that I thought for sure was going to be dry. NOPE.) Just go. Stop reading this and go. Then come back and tell me how right I was. ;) read more

The online menu is false advertisement because it's lower prices online but higher prices in person. I would have saved myself a trip if I seen the updated prices online. It was way too expensive and I don't understand why. I only ordered a hamburger with no cheese, tomato,pickles, and mustard and a side of fries. He automatically turned it into a combo which I never asked for because I don't like soft drinks. My simple meal cost me over 17$ and the quality was disappointing. I usually go to triangle burger which only costs me 12$ and the quality is amazing everytime. I just decided to try something new today and I instantly regret it. I also asked for napkins with my meal and the lady only gave me 2 napkins and made me feel rushed already helping another customer. the ketchup tasted sour and old and I only tried them because I seen they were good from the online reviews but now I see they are overpricing the menu which is unfortunate. Sadly won't be back and will not recommend. read more

The restaurant itself could use some TLC, but we ordered the Mini Matty Ultra-Meat Burger and my husband's exact words were "BEST Burger I have ever had!". 4 star rating - 5 stars for the Burger. Took a star away for the atmosphere (the sports memorabilia was very cool). The clutter next to the front door and around the front area inside was distracting. With a little TLC they could have it all! read more

Terrible service, phone orders don't get made untill you arrive. 8 people all waiting for food on a Fri night and no sense of urgency by girl at register who was more concerned with greeting friends and chatting, food prices almost double from what is shown on website. Portion of chicken in salad about half of what it was last time about a 6 months ago. Place is dirty looking with a big greasy power washing machine right in front where food being served. read more

Did a sampler platter and the food was incredible. Tri-tip was the best, pulled pork was fatty and crunchy with lots of flavor. Service was nice and friendly. Came in when it wasn't busy and had a nice time! read more

I don't understand how this business won best bbq. Service was decent, they do have signs saying it's not fast food and everything is made to order. The place has lots of raiders memorabilia. Looking past that it's a bit dingy which is odd, since the outside looks so new. Food was not it. We ordered pull pork sandwich with fries & a brisket sandwich. Pulled pork was flavorless and really wet. Bun was soggy, the texture was very soft but too many bites of fats. Brisket was thinly sliced kinda tough, salty but not other flavor. No smokey flavor just nothing. The bbq sauce had a sweetness to it was it was also plain. Fries were ok but I didn't come for fries. I hate to be so harsh in a review but I was so disappointed, how did this place beat Mega Texas? read more

Grill Masters BBQ - Pulled pork sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Clovis, California

Went on Wednesday around 2 pm not too busy had a table of 5 and we had a party 5. I had the Mini Matty Ulta meat burger combo which was outstanding. I was not able to finish could not imagine ordering the full Matty burger. The restroom was clean but not a big a big place but we were able to put two tables together to sit comfortably. Service was fine and took about 10 minutes to get food which was not a problem. Ambiance was fine not a fancy place but a nice place. Look forward to trying to the bbq plates next time, Someone in our party order macaroni salad and said it was really good and our French fries were crispy and good. Would recommend and make sure you come hungry. read more

Stopped by (9/13/25) on a whim after leaving Costco next door and boy are we glad ! We ordered a bbq plate with brisket , bbq chili beans and Mac salad ($19) and added pork spare ribs for just $4 more. That plate would have been enough for 2 people but no , we also ordered the special which was half a smoked chicken and 2 more sides (12.99) and both were soooo good. You can really taste the smoke and the seasoning was perfect. Pork spare ribs are fall off the bone and the brisket was juicy! The smoked chicken was very well seasoned and not dry at all! Food was fire! Tip * if you want a KICK in your mouth , try the ghost pepper bbq sauce. Service was amazing, we met the owner Jesse who talked to my husband about the raiders ( my husband is a die hard) the place is decorated with Las Vegas Raiders memorabilia and they have sports playing on all 3 tvs there . We were told that during Raider games, if you show up in Raider gear there are deals on the beers ! This place is worth trying, good food, service and beer ! read more

When you first walk in the smells, take you over the chicken is tasty and their sauce is great. I just can't get over how fast prices have tripled and double in the last three years only in the United States. We will pay this much for food, but the service was decent in the restaurant looks busy. read more

Grill Masters BBQ - Tri tip rice pilaf beans - Barbeque Near Me - Clovis, California

Friendly service in a homestyle ambience. Seating inside and outside. Order at the counter. I tried the brisket sandwich. Meat was fairly tender and juicy. Needed the bbq sauce that came on the side, as it needed a flavor boost. My husband had a burger and fries. He said the burger was good, good sized. Fries were typical crinkle cut. They have breakfast burritos on their menu that might be worth a try. They also are a few doors down from Summer Fox brewery, so I could see grabbing a burger and then going over and getting a pint at some point! I honestly probably wouldn't get the brisket again, but there are many other items on the menu I would go back and try. read more

Big portions and plenty of meat lovers' happiness here! The brisket was nice and tender, the pork ribs literally fell off the bone, and the tri-tip sandwich was loaded. Oh, and the burger? HUGE. Beans were the star side--super flavorful. Rice pilaf and the BBQ sauce were just okay (kinda tasted like it came from a bottle), but honestly, the meats and portion sizes made up for it. Definitely a solid BBQ spot when you're hungry and ready to feast! read more

I had heard of Grill Masters BBQ in Clovis, but due to the 3 1/2 star Yelp rating, I didn't feel compelled to try it out until I received my copy of "Best of Central California Peoples Choice" book in my mailbox. I noticed that under the heading of BBQ restaurants, Grill Masters got the second place Silver award. So, my wife and I, nearby on some business today, decided to try it out. We met and spoke with some of the family owners: Jesse and Maribel. We also met and talked with Jeremy, one of the cookers who gave has a tour of the pits in action (see pictures). Each was friendly and helpful, giving us the feeling of caring for their customers. Jesse and I discussed barbecue in general, his 25 years of cooking 'cue, and a few others related subjects. I felt I made a new friend. We selected a 1 meat plate, added a second meat, with two sides: 3 large ribs, about a half pound of brisket, which Jesse told me they did "differently" (than Texas style) and added they did "Clovis style barbecue." The sides were Cowboy beans and macaroni salad. Both sides were good. The beans were very good. The meats were different-especially the brisket which was very thinly sliced flat; no fatty point served with it. Although it was good meat, it did not meet my expectations or any previous experience eating brisket. It was more like roast beef well done. I'll pass on that next time. The ribs were delicious, even though falling off the bone is not my choice. I prefer more resistance - it being necessary to bite a clean bite off the bone. They were tender and juicy. I will order them again. The price of the plate came to $23.75, which for today's standards is very good. My wife and I each ate our fill and took home about half of what we were served. All in all, Grill Master's was a nice, enjoyable experience. Don't listen to the naysayers- make your own mind up. Visit Grill Master's read more

My family has lived next to this place since it's been open. Never buy a hamburger here. 20min wait for a crap frozen patty from the grocery store. Every couple years I try to give them another try and they always fail to deliver on quality food. read more

BEST BBQ IN TOWN !!!! They're so delicious, the only thing better than their food is their customer service they allllllwaysss remember me and my order. There's never been a time I've walked in and not been greeted by ATLEAST 1 of the employees. They have great seating inside and cute patio tables for days with nice weather. If you're looking for a new bbq spot absolutely give them a try. read more

If you're looking for great BBQ in Clovis, Grill Master BBQ is worth the visit. I had the pork ribs, which were fall-off-the-bone tender, juicy, and served in generous portions. The seasoning leaned slightly on the salty side but didn't take away from the flavor. Out front, they showcase two wood fire smokers, a testament to their authentic BBQ skills. Mastering fire and hand-stoking coals is an art, and it's clear they've nailed it--everything else in the technique follows. For sides, I went with chili beans and potato salad. While I'm usually not a fan of potato salad, theirs was surprisingly tasty. The chili was a standout--perfect color, texture, and thickness with a light spice that finishes with a kick of cayenne. Delicious. Service was exceptional. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and greeted us with smiles that never wavered. The ambience adds a unique touch, with a die-hard Raiders fan vibe and a man-cave look that gives the place a lot of character. Overall, well done to the team at Grill Master BBQ. Wishing you continued success! read more

No pictures of the food to show bec we ate it all! We were here last night when we went line dancing at Summer Fox Brewery next door. Because we're on a meat diet, my husband and I each ordered a pound of sliced brisket. They were very tender, thinly sliced, easy to eat and paired well with their barbecue sauce. We will be back for sure to try their other offerings :) Tip: just note that bec they grill add day long you will leave home smelling like smoked bbq after visiting the store, we didn't mind as we were headed back home after picking up food read more

The full rack of ribs is not what it used to be. I ordered a full rack of ribs and received a small spare ribs. So disappointed

If you rated this place high you do not know BBQ. Brisket was tough and not edible. Tri tip was gray and tough and I'm not sure how pulled pork can be tough but it was. Mac and cheese pretty good. Potato salad pretty good. Beans decent. Beer was cold. At least they have that. read more

No pictures because we were so hungry. I just have to say this place has the best baked bean hands down. I'm not usually a fan of baked beans but their beans were so flavorful, I really like that it has a little bit of spice for that kick. I got the brisket plate with the baked beans and potato salad with tri-tip added on. The tri-tip was a little dry but I have to admit based on my experience with other BBQ that their tri-tip was more juicer than other places. Both the meat were well seasoned, the portion is good for the price. However, I preferred my brisket to be thick sliced and the brisket was too thinly slice, for my preference. read more

Grill Masters BBQ - Double cheese burger. Combo - Barbeque Near Me - Clovis, California

This is the second time trying this place. I figured with bbq anyone can have a bad cut of meat etc., so I gave it second chance. But today wasn't any better. Brisket was super tough and chewy, and the ribs were undercooked and hard to even pull off the bone with your teeth. Won't be going back for a third time. read more

This was my first time trying Grill Masters BBQ and I already know, I'll be back for sure! The food and service were both great, friendly staff and receiving my order was a lot quicker than expected. The food came out steaming hot and stayed pretty warm until I was finished eating. The taste of the meat itself was so good and adding the BBQ sauce definitely enhanced it. I'll be sure to try more things on their menu when I come back! read more

Fabulous barbecue me and my friend eat there on Fridays for lunch about every other month. I highly recommend it.

Tri-tip sandwich was very good. I got the hamburger which was OK needed seasoning. Pricing was OK.

The food a the atmosphere is always amazing. We definitely will be back. Fast service with a reasonable price.

Like I stated earlier this evening on my facebook page! I rate this place 13 out of 10 in my book! Illl recommend this place to anyone who's looking for some great bbq! Great food and great service! read more

Impecable service!!!! Need to thank the staff forgoing out their way for my birthday truly hooking up my plate

One of the worst burgers I've had. it' just wasn't satisfying. I should have eaten the food at home.

I really enjoy the food at this place! As a smoker, I am very judgmental of other people's smoked meats. I am confident to say that their food is top notch! Keep it up! read more

$20 for a brisket sandwich that had no smoke flavor, no smoke ring and tasted like it was boiled. I'll stick to driving to Madera for my BBQ. Or make it myself. read more

I haven't been here for a while. When I came here with a friend, I wondered why I hadn't been here in so long. I had the Brisket sandwich with fries, which was full of meat and nothing else. My friend had the $33, three meat sampler, which, by the way, has four meats! You get a free hot link. He had the chicken, ribs, and pulled pork. He said the highlight was the ribs. It also comes with two sides and can really feed three or four people. You just order at the register, and then they bring the food to your table. They ran out of sweet tea when I was there, and they immediately refilled it, so I really enjoyed the service. Inside is pretty basic but feels right for a good BBQ place, very casual and fun. They have six or seven tables inside and a couple outside. If you like meat, you will love this place! read more

Food is amazing!! We got brisket, tri tip, chicken and fries. Plates are PACKED with meat, don't let the basket size fool you. Service was friendly, place was clean. Definitely going back-- to support local business.... not to be a chowing down pig.... lol. Maybe both. read more

FOOD: I think it is good although the brisket was more like it was sliced from a deli slicer than being the thick, melt in your mouth kind. Fries were good, beans were good. Food was a 7 out of 10. SERVICE: pay at the counter and they bring you your food. They asked if I needed anything, ketchup for the fries, and she was on it. Service was 8 out of 10. AMBIANCE: This needs to be addressed. I hope the owners read this.... The Raiders stuff is cool although I'm not a Raider fan... keep this stuff. A couple things... ditch false ceiling (rat crawl zone) and ditch the ceiling fans (dirt and grime). Ditch the fake plants. These are dust collectors. Enclose kitchen and run the air conditioning - ditch the fans. Manage the flys. Fixing these things would improve your restaurant tremendously. Most newer restaurants have open ceilings showing the vents and ducts... this is fine. The nasty false ceiling has got to go, the ceiling fans, the flys.... all got to go! Ambiance was 2 out of 10. read more

Grill Masters BBQ - General ambiance of restaurant. - Barbeque Near Me - Clovis, California

If I could give a 0 I would 0/10! For a place called grill masters I expected so much more.... The cook on the fry was the only enjoyable part of this entire experience but I knew walking in and seeing a sign that detailed the ways in which you wouldn't be given a refund was THE SIGN TO WALK AWAY! The BBQ sauce is DISGUSTING taste more like a chamoy than a bbq sauce it probably would make a great candy topping. The tri tip was smothered in peppercorn and still had no flavor by the time I picked it up it was so wet it also crumbled in your hands. It was my first and last time here by far! read more

Grill Masters BBQ - Tri-Tip Sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Clovis, California

It has been a while since I've been here because I forgot about this location because it's kind of hidden. I drove by and spotted it and said that a breakfast burrito sounded good. I ordered the breakfast burrito with tri tip, eggs, and potatoes in it. It was load with tri tip and the meat was so smoky and tender just like I remembered. I also ordered the BBQ salad with tri tip and I was treated to a lot of tri tip with my salad. The salad had romaine lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Let me tell you, it was worth the money that I paid because it came with a lot of meat. Total cost for those 2 things was just over $20 totally worth it. I promise, I will not go this long again before visiting them. If you haven't tried out this place, it's definitely a hidden gem. read more

Absolutely the best barbecue in Clovis. The way they smoke their meats and season them are outstanding. I would recommend them for catering too. read more

First off, this is a restaurant, they could slap me (they don't) and tell me to say thank you and I would because the food is amazing. I've never had a bad dish here. My go to is the Tri-tip breakfast burrito. Second, the staff is extremely friendly and the service is fast. When you walk in, the smoky smell just adds to it all - I couldn't work here, I'd be hungry all the time and eating in to my paycheck lol All in all, this place is a must visit, don't let yelp review stars deter you, support your local business, their bbq is top notch! read more
