OMG! Where do I start? I was pretty skeptical but decided to give it a try. I was a Naked BBQ person in a pinch but this place knocked them out! The ribs were a bit dry but still good. Beans were a little sweet but had plenty of meat mixed in. I loved all of the different sauces because I prefer my sauce on the spicy vinegary side. Greens with brisket bits were and had to get an extra to go. Kids had waffle fries and burgers and couldn't finish them. Going back to try that catfish and okra with a side of banana pudding! read more

This place is PHENOMINAL!!! I've tried a couple popular BBQ places and they never live up to close friends who make this at home. Finally I found a place that is even better! I ordered the rib platter special and then Pit special of 5 meats where I picked pulled pork, 2 chopped briskets, burnt ends and some sort of rib. For sides we had baked beans, Mac n cheese, mashed potatoes and Corn nuggets. I had no idea what the nuggets were but basically breading fried with cheese and corn. So good! I wish I had time to take pictures but my family of 5 demolished this. Some of my kids are picky but everyone just loved this food. So flavorful, so tender and just soooo good! We still have some meat left over for their lunches. This will definitely be going on my repeat list. This food would be great to order for a party! I also want to give a shout out to the young man who helped with my order tonight. I wasn't sure on portion sizes and told him I wanted to feed my family of 5. I told him what I was thinking of ordering and he rang it up and then figured out it was a better deal to upgrade to the platter of 5 meats. He was very helpful in answering my questions. read more

Order the beef ribs AHEAD of time. They will reserve them for you. That is my highly recommended advice. They are worth every bit of effort you put into getting them. If you casually stroll in at dinner time, they will be sold out. We went once and they were sold out, went again at lunch and we secured them. The beef's ribs are a 5. I only took a star away because I wish the sides were better, but still good. read more

I would recommend the rolling smoke in Las Vegas on highland they make the food the right way. You have a franchise here in Arizona that needs lots of work. They run out of food before closing they give you ribs that have no meat they give you okra with no roulade. They are lacking in lots of areas. Now I will say the Vegas franchises are kind of lacking this year I have been going to Rollin smoke for 10 plus years now and the food is lacking just a tad fatty beef ribs no monster burger most times missing food items on the menu and just poor quality. read more

I came for the brisket burnt ends, and Rollin Smoke delivered. Good burnt ends are hard to find outside Texas. Burnt ends made right are even harder to find. These had the bark, smoke, tenderness and rich flavor you hope for. Someone in our group ordered the Dino Rib. It was massive, tender, well-seasoned and coated with just the right amount of sauce. Don't overlook the pickles. They may look like a small addition, but they bring a crisp, tangy bite that earns their place on the plate. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They definitely know their BBQ. read more

Let's start with the parking lot, a complete disaster to even find parking. Once inside, the prices are completely insane, but since it took so long to park, I decided to stay. The food was mediocre, $33 for lunch is out of bounds! I'll go down the road to Rudy's and enjoy every bite without having to apply for government assistance. Best of luck, read more

I was buying some cookies next door and wanted to get some dinner nearby and Rolling Smoke BBQ looked appealing. When I entered, the place was pretty empty and the woman behind the counter told me they were out of a lot of things - they start smoking in the morning and when they run out they are out. But she did have pork ribs and burnt ends left, which were the things I was most interested in. She said she'd make me a big platter with ribs and burnt ends and I ordered a side of bacon potato salad. I saw her put everything into the computer a couple times as she was working to get me a good price. The side was 8oz potato salad. Unfortunately when I got home with my order, it wasn't my order. She'd given me someone else's order entirely. Instead of several pork ribs and lots of burnt ends I had a chicken leg, some brisket, a couple pork ribs and some catfish. No potato salad, unless the tiny container was a taster, but maybe that was tartar sauce. I was happy to try so many things, but felt bad for whoever didn't get this order. By the time I realized it I was already home and wasn't going to return cold food. :( The catfish was the strange one - I wasn't sure what it was when I touched it (since it wasn't what I ordered) and upon touching it, it felt strangely wiggly. As if it was a piece of deep fried silicone or something. But we cut into it and I tried it and it was honestly my favorite thing in the whole meal! Super tasty!! When I was at the restaurant the woman told me the meats didn't have BBQ sauce on them, but when I opened up the containers, the burnt ends and the ribs did have a little sauce on them. So it was overall a super confusing situation. Bread rolls were boring, but the rest of the food was good. I'd like to actually try the bacon potato salad next time I visit. Restaurant is large and was clean and had a comfortable atmosphere. Food was fresh and tasty. read more

Restaurant Review The atmosphere was very welcoming. The service and staff were all kind and professional. 3 Star - Spare ribs were a little overdone and parts were difficult to chew. I did enjoy the flavor of bark on the ribs though. 3 Star - The brisket I am struggling with. The sauce on the brisket was sweet and with the burnt ends, just is sweet, followed by more sweet. There wasn't much of a smoke ring. The bark was almost non-existent, looking and eating more like skin than a bark. The meat almost looked boiled. But it wasn't dry really and wasn't chewy either. It had a pretty decent flavor despite these things but nothing to make sure I come back for. 3 Star - the burnt ends, texture wise, were okay, but I don't know if I'd categorize them as burnt ends. For my liking, the sauce on the burnt ends was way too sweet. I attempted adding other sauces to break through but it didn't help. 4 Star- the Mac and cheese was really wonderful. Nice amount of pepper. It wasn't too goopy but was just goopy enough. I really enjoyed the Mac. I tried each of their sauces, and I really wasn't a huge fan of any of them. A little disappointing that the plates don't come with drinks. I do have to say the amount of food I got for the price was pretty good. 3*** = Good but no separation from similar restaurants 4**** = Set themselves a part with unique food and I want to go back. 5*****= You have to go out of your way and make a special trip to try the deliciousness that is there! read more

I had them cater a family function. And even though there seemed to be some confusion with the order, they came through and on time. The food was delicious as always. The greens and brisket were a family favorite! read more

Food was great. I'll still give it. Five stars great flavor. Only thing I was not happy about was the bark on the beef ribs and that's actually my fault because I have braces and it just was hard to chew but everything else I had for both times that I've been there was absolutely great both times DoorDash read more

The food was delicious and the service was awesome. I got the Brisket Mac Wrap. It had a little sweetness, tangy, and spicy taste to it. I could only eat half of it. Ate the rest later. read more

I came here with my family to get some lunch the other day. The faculty doesn't look like much on the outside, but the inside is pretty cute. We were greeted right away by staff. I never got names of who was working but the two girls that helped us were so amazing, helpful, and sweet. When you get your drinks there is an area for different bbq sauces. They have a few choices. The one I enjoyed most was a sweet one. I think it was called, "mamas sweet" or something similar. I personally ordered the trio meat plate. It consisted of turkey, 2 spare ribs, pulled chicken, and Mac and cheese. I had wanted loaded mashed potatoes but they said they were out. The turkey was my favorite, especially with the bbq sauce. The ribs were okay, it was more of a dry rub style and you add on which bbq you like. But I like my ribs more tender and the sauce baked on. The pulled chicken was also good, it tasted how it should. Nothing too special about that part. My boyfriend got the brisket Mac and cheese wrap. He said it was very good and ate it very quickly. I didn't personally try it. My daughter's kids meal was pretty big in size! The burger was also really good, I would order a burger myself next time because I enjoyed it so much. Just good flavor on the meat. In the drink area they have some kool aid options that are pretty good. I did have to water it down for my daughter, as well as myself. Overall, I would definitely return here! It was a great experience and the food was all good and filling. The bathrooms were clean and have some funny photos on the wall. All the staff were amazing and that really sets the vibe. Loved it here! read more

Great food! A must try! Service was great! Good size portions! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

This is a super busy place so be prepared to wait on the phone and wait in line but it is totally worth it! I contacted them about having a birthday party there. I was able to get tables reserved but a bunch of us which was great. We pulled off the surprise. Unfortunately we got there at a time when they were running out of everything. We just got a couple of the dino ribs and a bunch of the beer was out of stock but we were able to try the chicken, the okra, the hush puppies, brisket, and pulled pork. I wish I would have had more background on what I was ordering or perhaps recommendations from the staff but everyone was so busy. They did have a bunch of sauces, and I tried a couple but the place was loud and full so it was a bit hard to move around. We took tons of food back home with us as well which was wonderful to eat again the next day. The wait staff Heather and Vanessa were the best ever. Some of the younger staff seemed annoyed by our questions. I for sure want to go back when they are not as busy. I appreciate them helping us with the party! read more

Spud, didn't know what that was till yesterday morning. Was doing some surfing and found this place. Happen to be in the neighborhood and stopped in. Extensive menu. Staff is welcoming and got offered the daily special. For the 2nd time in a day I saw the word spud. They explained what it was and I went with it. Got the burnt ends on it. Sweet tea was on point. Place is cozy and modern. A must if you're in the area. read more

First time eating here. We ordered through Uber Eats. The service was nice. They called me because they ran out of ribs. I've never experienced this from an Uber order, which makes me want to visit the restaurant in person. The food was good. I'm not a pickle fan on BBQ. I think that's an Midwest thing. If you're into it, give them a try. read more

Rollin Smoke BBQ - Still yummy - Barbeque Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

I not gonna food is better than ok. Could work on the watered down Mac and cheese and the candied yams were old looked more brown than orange. But it's Saturday night at 8:03pm and I've been calling for almost 20 minutes and no answer to see if they were out of ribs before I drive all the way from Glendale and guess what's when I got there at 8:25pm they were out of all ribs. Now I've been in the food service industry for 15 years and restaurants that always run out of food everyday and they don't have a line coming out the door to run out of food like that generally doesn't last in the food industry. The number may look good to the owner but how long do you think it will take that customer to return to your restaurant. You just lost a customer for weeks or months cause you restaurant can't keep food on the menu. This is bad for business but the owner of it thinks differently. You could improve on the output of your food inventory. I just understand you have a menu with food on it that you can't serve doesn't make any sense at all. Makes you wonder how Bobby Q does the numbers they do. read more

Koolaid was great! My husband likes the spare ribs, which was the only hot food we got. The bread on my brisket sandwich was falling apart and the brisket was cold. The side portions were a good size and they had many options. Good variety of bbq sauces. I liked the sweet and original. All the staff were friendly. I like that they bus the tables. I spent $42 for a brisket sandwich and the recommended Duo meat combo. read more

The best BBQ that I've had in years. The staff was friendly and made suggestions since we were first timers. We will definitely return.

New southern style BBQ open 3 days ago. I walked in and still had the new car smell. Customer service is eager to help with suggestions and friendly smiles. Plenty of seating. With one TV for your favorite game. I spoke with Amairany (hope I spelled that correctly) and along with being helpful with menu suggestions and describing all the menu to me she mentioned the original location is out of Vegas. Very popular from what I understand. I had the pulled chicken, brisket and sausage and tried 3 out of 6 BBQ sauces available. From original to spicy to mustard based. Try them all I'm sure you'll have a favorite real quick. The meats were all delicious tasted fresh. You will not be disappointed. You can wash it all down with a fountain drink or even kool-Aid. The bathrooms are you clean and made me happy. They do have shirts and caps so you can take a souvenir because I'm sure you'll eat all your food. Can't wait to go back and explore the rest of the menu. read more

Let me start by saying, we've had take-out from here for a while and the first few times we loved it. I would've given it 5 stars, if it was the first time we had it. The Burnt Ends were amazing and the Spare Ribs were tender...we liked the house and sweet sauces. However, the last few times have been disappointing. The ends weren't as "burnt" as they should've been and their sides have been lackluster. Anyway, we decided to go and dine inside the other day. We were hoping for a better meal, trying to rekindle the first few times we had it. It was okay... First off, the staff are really friendly, the dining room is roomy and inviting. But, when we started our order, we were told they didn't have the turkey, chicken or burnt ends and no mac & cheese were ready. We arrived about 11:30ish, they open at 11, so there's no way they could already be out of that many things. Hubby really wanted the chicken (he'd had it previously and really liked it), so he wasn't happy to start with. We both decided to get 2 Meat Plates with Brisket and Spare Ribs. I got the Candied Yams as my side...Hubby got the Corn Bread. Honestly, the best thing on my plate were the yams, they were wonderful!!! My brisket was so fatty and the ribs were okay, but not great. Hubby's brisket was definitely leaner than mine. We did order some mac & cheese once it was ready (we were finished with our food), and it was alright. Considering it was freshly made, I was expecting it to be a little better, though. And, we placed an order for burnt ends to take home. We did have to wait a bit for them and when we got home...they were so fatty and hard to eat. My rating is based on all our orders, so decided to give it an average. I'm sure we'll try it again, because when they're good, they're really good! Hoping for some BBQ magic to come back again. read more

Excellent BBQ. We tried pulled pork, brisket, pork & Beef ribs. All 10/10. Not often you find a place with great sides too. Fried okra, greens, Mac n cheese were all top notch. Forgot peach cobbler to go, gotta go back soon. read more

I'm assuming this is the same rolling smoke from Vegas since the logo the same but not sure what they did here nothing like Vegas number one they were out of almost everything luckily they have brisket which was almost inedible very dry almost no fat no smoke no bark I'll just say this place was late at the counter I was super nice very loud though love her hope they never get rid of her this place is gone wish I could remember her name but maybe they'll get their stuff together soon hopefully cuz I love going this place every time I was in Vegas read more

Was helping my son move and he suggested Rollin Smoke for lunch. Best BBQ ever! Walked in and was greeted right away. The menu was expansive and explained very well. We tried the beef ribs, pork ribs, brisket and pulled pork. All were tasty and tastefully done. The greens were OMG good! Baked beans were amazing and the Mac n cheese was off the chain! All sauces are homemade and delicious. We will be back in town later this summer and we will stop in again! Highly recommend! read more

The BBQ is amazing. The Dino bone bark is delicious and the meat tender and juicy. The Brisket three ways is soooo good with the burnt ends. The beans are amazing as well. The cornbread needs jalepeno in it. Love the Kool Aid also. read more

Great bbq spot! We had the 5 meat, 3 side meal for our family. Awesome quality meat, sauce, and sides. Coming from Alabama, my standards are high for bbq. I loved the ribs- not fatty great texture, pulled pork was great portion, brisket and turkey good too! Thankful to have a resturant that has fried okra and collard greens (cooked with pepper sauce as it should be), and Mac and cheese was very flavorful! Glad they had sweet tea and peach cobbler to complete the meal! Fantastic customer service as well. Thanks for lunch guys! read more

You know when you start out getting lean brisket when you ordered moist your in trouble. Sent it back and ended up getting moist that was not trim the fat the way I asked. Overall I would rate the brisket a 4 out of 10. At $18 a half lb come on rollin boys you can do better than that. The potato salad I could not eat. This coming from a potato salad lover. It was dry, no taste except for a pint of bacon bits, so gross, not real bacon. How can you wreck a potato salad. It's almost impossible. Table and chairs very uncomfortable aka fast food. Uuuuuuugh!! read more

I've came here a couple of times now and before I was extremely impressed food was amazing, mouth watering and couldn't wait to get more. And the service was amazing last time. This time I wasn't impressed. The food was OK the service wasn't the best. The young lady that first helped us (which I knew her name she was a very beautiful African American lady) was smiling and very friendly but other than that service wasn't good. The young boys kept coming out with their hats on sideways, touching the lady ladies stomach. Whether you could see her belly or not isn't ok to be doing at your job where others could see. read more

I have mixed feelings. I went for takeout. The good: the catfish was cooked perfectly. The brisket was good. The collard greens were spicy. I loved the bbq sauce. Not pictured was the mac n cheese. It was made with cavatapi pasta and was served Al dente. The sauce it was served in was yummy...I thought maybe it had a hint of truffle? The bad: I hate terms of endearment. I was called "honey" "sweetie" and "babe" about 5 times in my short stay to grab my takeout order by the server. It's condescending and unnecessary. This plate cost me $25. I thought there would be more food for $25. This plate was not worth $25. It was worth about $15 ($18 top end). I was up charged $4 for the catfish, otherwise the plate was $21. I added on the Mac n cheese because I really wanted to try it and my bill came to $32. The collard greens, while spicy, didn't really have much flavor other than that. I don't think I'll return. The prices are inflated. read more
