The view from outside
Aaron Z.

I wasn't expecting much, but this is really pretty good. It's in a strip mall just a couple of blocks from the real Strip. It has a fun, friendly vibe (I started chatting up other people in line) and a no-frills interior with picnic benches and loud colors. They were tragically out of spare ribs that night, but luckily the menu is pretty large. I cannot pass up beef ribs. These were big, meaty, and tender with a nice smoke. The Half is a large portion for one person, but yes, I ate the whole thing. It comes with pickles. I added a side of mac and cheese which was cheesy and creamy, though I'm not a fan when people garnish with shredded, unmelted cheese; it was good anyway. I also got the cole slaw which was decent. It's fun to try the different sauces, though they weren't really needed (a compliment). I thought I'd prefer the spicier ones, but the original was nicely balanced. The portions are big and prices good for barbecue, so honestly I'm not sure how to handle the All You Can Eat, but I'd like to try one day.

Decent bbq here in Vegas, but nothing that blew me away. My favorites that I'd be willing to come back for are the ribs and cornbread. Ribs were very tender and paired nicely with the sauces. My favorite sauce was the sweet bbq. The cornbread was warm and had a cake like consistency which I loved. There were a few things we ordered that had potential like the brisket, baked beans, and koolaid. We asked for a leaner cut of brisket and while it was lean, it was not tender at all. If it were, I'd be willing to order again. The baked beans were a little too spicy for my preference and the koolaid barely had any sugar. I was not a fan of the greens, yams, loaded or mashed potatoes. The greens had an interesting flavor that none of us cared for, the yams still had skin pieces and outside of sugar didn't hold any flavor, and the mashed potatoes were bland. The restaurant itself is spacious. And the lady who rang up our order was really sweet and helpful. I also noticed they had an AYCE deal that sounded like a good price if all guests in your group are willing to commit.

This is my favorite Rollin Smoke in town! A great vibe in this spot right off the Vegas strip! They make it so easy to call in and place your order! There was no wait and everyone was nice! The beef ribs, coleslaw, waffle fries, chopped brisket, and banana pudding are staples in my orders from here! I work on the strip and drove this back home to my bf in Lake Las Vegas. I joked around and told him I forgot the sauce and he looked devastated! Luckily I just bought a bottle of sauce to bring home. The beef ribs are HUGE! Excellent serving size! Be prepared to eat when you get there!

Ambiance: it's an old fashioned barbecue place located near the north of the strip, very convenient to freeway, they have a small lot for parking and shared with other merchant, it's quite spacious inside, two main dining room with bench chairs and long tables setup, meant to share with other customers during peak hours Service: friendly and fast, patient with questions and provided useful advice Food & Drink: classic menu items, and they have valuable combinations and offer ayce option, don't forget to try their Arkansauces Sliced Brisket - ***** tender and tasty, highly recommend Pulled Pork - ***** soft soft and juicy, highly recommend Spare Ribs - **** chewy and tasty, recommend Hot Link - **** flavorful, recommend Burnt Ends - ***** sweet and juicy, highly recommend Cheesy Mac N Cheese - *** average Fried Onion Strings - **** crispy, recommend Sweet Corn Bread - **** soft and sweet, recommend Lemonade - *** light Price: premium quality and reasonable prices, expect $30+ per person for a very satisfying meal, it's probably one of the best bbq places I've been to, totally worth it, I would give a ten star

The Pit Special - 5 Meats + 3 Sides
Louie D.

Checked out Rolling Smoke Barbecue today, and for Las Vegas BBQ, it was a pretty solid experience. The brisket was tender and cooked well, the burnt ends had good flavor, and the Hot Link was solid with a nice balance of seasoning and texture. The sides were also better than expected. The potato salad was especially good, and the mashed potatoes had a lot of flavor and paired well with the meats. My only disappointment was the smoke profile. I was hoping for a stronger smoke presence across the meats, and they definitely benefited from the sauces. Thankfully, the sauces were excellent, especially the mustard-based sauce, which added a great tangy kick and complemented the BBQ perfectly. Overall, I enjoyed the meal. The quality was there, the flavors were good, and it's a strong BBQ option in a city where great barbecue can be hard to find.

Everything we tried was amazing!!! From the fried catfish to the brisket to the beef rib. The only notes I have are that the ends of the beef ribs were a little tough but I understand they need to cook it all the way through all the ribs. The fried catfish was fried to perfection and was the perfect crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. And the sauce that with it was also really good. The brisket was nice and tender and the different sauces offered were really good!!! The service was amazing! The owner's son called out our name to bring us our food and it was good to see him doing his job so diligently! Vibe is typical Texas bbq place with picnic tables inside and out. Loved that they blast the AC especially since it was so hot outside.

Three meat combo...Brisket, pork and turkey
Lisa G.

I have been to MANY bbq places all over the US...this one is probably the best I have had. Hub and I get the three meat combo with smoked turkey, chopped brisket and chopped pork. We chose baked beans for a side, and added the collard greens. The meat here is cooked to perfection! They also have several sauces that are amazing! These are located by the soft drink section and you can help yourself to as many variety sauces that you want. Inside is cozy with picnic style tables...very clean. They have outdoor seating as well. We got there at 11am and by the time we left, not many tables were left...so the word is out on this place. The person taking our order was friendly and efficient.

The amount of food you get for the price is fantastic. Service is even better! Something about good service. It just makes the food better IMO. Ambiance of the place is great. Nice family feel to the place. Bench style seating. Please see pictures, we ordered a lot of food. Fed roughly 14 people and still had food left.

Meat meat and more meat!! Best AYCE BBQ ever! Definitely worth stopping by if you're looking for tasty bbq and a lot of it! Was so excited to eat I didn't take any pics. Will definitely share the joy next time!

Tried the 2 meat plate with brisket and chicken. My brisket came out a little cold, but my partner said theirs was good. The chicken was decent and the collard greens were actually really good. The mac and cheese wasn't really my favorite, but the Kool-Aid was good. The banana pudding was very sweet but still tasty. Peach cobbler was okay. I personally didn't like the soft pie pieces mixed inside. Overall the food was decent and I'd probably come back to try other items. The jalapeño poppers were probably my favorite thing we tried. They were huge and packed with flavor. Overall the food was decent and I'd probably come back to try other items.

I visited Rollin Smoke Barbeque located close to industrial area of Las Vegas for my birthday on last Thursday. Overall it was just an okay experience. Upon entering, I right away noticed just how roomy this restaurant is. It has two large dining areas with lots of seating available. Never did the restaurant seem crowded or too full for the number of people there. The decorations at Rollin Smoke Barbeque had a very relaxed, casual atmosphere. Very much what you would want in a barbeque location in Las Vegas! The décor included many elements of rustic and modern design that added an inviting element! One thing I noticed immediately was how quickly the food came out to us. As soon as we placed an order, we were basically in a matter of seconds waiting on our food at most five minutes. The speed of getting this amount of food in such a short period of time is just incredible, especially since they get so many people coming through all day. This really made the whole experience of eating here smooth and simple! Unfortunately, while the atmosphere was great, the food was not good. I ordered a two meat plate with mac & cheese. however, both meats were not very enjoyable. The pork was extremely cold. In addition to the pork, I received an end cut of the baby back ribs as part of my meat portion. The end cut of the baby back ribs was almost inedible due to how tough they were. Even though there is a big problem with the food, I can still say that we really enjoyed the ambiance and service. This is one of those places where I would definitely give them another chance to see if they have improved on their food in the future. However, given this was for my birthday, I felt disappointed because our main course did not live up to the rest of what we experienced.

Menu full of delicious BBQ.

If you're craving Southern BBQ, Rollin Smoke is a good choice. There are a few locations, but this review is focused on the location closest to the Strip Its location is several minutes from the center of the Strip. Don't be put off by the looks of the location. The site is in a kind of rundown strip mall-ish center with plenty of parking. Inside you order at the counter and food is brought to your table. Even with a line, service is friendly and wait times are pretty minimal. Their menu has a little of everything from beef ribs, brisket and sausage links to okra, corn nuggets and slaw. Seating is first come first serve and they have e quite a large dining area with plenty of tables with bench seats. Next to the soda machine are an abundance of different sauces that will appeal to even the pickiest of bbq eaters. For lunch we chose the 3 meat trio. We chose sliced brisket (it comes chopped if you don't specify) 1/4 dark meat chicken and hot links. For the included side, we chose the dirty rice. We added an extra 1/4 dark meat chicken and a side of cheesy mac and cheese. Wife and I split the brisket and hot links and we will usually have leftovers as they are generous with their portions. All the barbecue has rich and Smokey flavor. The brisket was tender and had a hive visible smoke ring around the edge. The links have nice heat that is not overpowering. The dark meat chicken is also tender and juicy. When you peel the skin back the meat underneath is glistening. Both the rice and macaroni complimented our protein selections. If I have one knock, the sides were merely warm and not hot. I think this as due to the volume of people there for lunch today. For sauce I chose their original and sweet mama varieties. They are very tasty and full of southern bbq influence. All-in-all, this is a great BBQ spot and centrally located for visitors to the Strip.

Ask the Community - Rollin Smoke Barbeque

Are kids still eat for free on Sundays?

Hi Is this the location with the AYCE BBQ that includes drinks in the price? How much per adult? Do they offer the popular Beef dinosaur ribs w/ the AYCE or separately?

AFAIK, the AYCE cost is ~$60 or more person. Not sure if you get more than one drink per person. https://www.rollinsmokebarbeque.com/highland-drive-menu/

What is the weight of the brisket of the 3-way order?

Each Brisket selection provides a quarter pound of meat, totaling just under one pound of meat collectively and weighing in at approximately 0.75 pounds when plated

Do they charge kids 3 and under for ayce?

They don't have ayce.

Can the shrimp be steamed?

No. No steaming

Is there an all you can eat option?

Yes, $50 for all you can eat including drink, anything on the menu, but no sharing. The only restriction listed is you only get to have 2 beef ribs.

Is this restaurant pet friendly? We are passing through Vegas and would like to try the BBQ. Thank you.?

They have a patio area in front with benches and I saw own one with a pet and some others with bikes.

Is this a reservation spot or walk in okay?

Walk in

Do we need reservations for 4 people?

No reservations required.

How many ribs in a full rack beef ribs? Just ordered. Actually 4 ribs for full order. 2 for 1/2…

Yes, 4 for a full rack 2 for a half rack. How in the world does one become elite by giving people bad answers? SMH, I'm glad you checked too!

What's the difference between rollin smoke and ricks rollin smoke. Same family to competitor?

Same place. The original is on Highland Ave.

Is the outside seating dog friendly?

I didn't see any sign about pets in the outdoors eating area. I think if your dog is on a leash and well behaved, the management would allow it.

Does anyone know if they use peanut oil? Have a peanut allergy and was wondering if this could be a safe place to go?

Not sure. Good question though. We have a peanut allergy in the family. They are heavy supporters of AZ Razorbacks and children's charities.

Do they serve beer?

As of right now the answer is No. I heard they are trying to get something in the beer realm soon . We just have to wait an see. They have sodas , water , ice tea now. I'm from Orange County California and I visit this establishment when in Las… 

Are they open on 4th of July and until what time?

Call restaurant for holiday hours.

Is it byob?

Yes it is

Is the $34.99 option truly all you can eat?

Yes it is.

For catering, do you have a bbq bar and/or taco bar for 30 people?

They have a new area to the left of the main entrance outside and it's air conditioned and very nice. It could definitely hold 30 or more. I wouldn't call it a bar but it looks like it could be used for a private party.

Let me be honest--go ahead and skip Lolo's altogether and come here instead! There was no wait,…read moreand both the food and service were amazing. Moomoo and Krystal provided outstanding service and made the experience even better. Every single side we tried was flavorful and delicious, and the fried chicken was really good too! Great food, great service, and no long wait. Definitely worth checking out!

The only issue I had is the chairs and tiny seating area…read more Everything else was delicious and beautifully served. Al a carte entree options are available so we got the liver and onions. This tasted just like my Cousin Idas recipe and the reason why I like liver and onions to this day. You even get Three choices of gravy Y'all...beef, chicken, or turkey Great staff and ultra receptive to needs...damn near psychic. It was too hot and I'm too old to get any of the drinks but they looked good and the water and lemon were great. Alcohol needs to be consumed on the low/DL so it's kinda bring ya know but take ya cup to the car for the cut. I will definitely be taking Moms here very soon. Cabbage was Bomb! BEP were too salty (we couldn't eat them) and the Mac n cheese was dry but seasoned well. Need tips: Get the turkey wangs, oxtails, liver n onions, yams, dressing with gravy, cornbread, cabbage, potato salad, chicken n waffles
