I ordered the **BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger**, and while the presentation wasn't the most impressive, it does come with an onion ring, which is a nice touch. It's not my favorite burger on the menu, but it's still very good. I'd give it an **8/10**. The **Monster Burger** is where it's at, though! This is easily a **9/10** and one of those burgers you really can't go wrong with. The portion size, quality, and price are all excellent, and I especially love that it comes with two different types of cheese. Definitely one of the best options here. We also ordered the **Southwestern Salad**, which was really good. I would recommend asking for extra dressing because it could definitely use a little more. Overall, I'd give the salad an **8/10**. The **fries are always a 10/10**. The side portion is huge and easily enough to share, which makes it an even better value. The drinks are good as well. The **service is always top-notch**. They treat you like family, and the food comes out quickly. I also like that the restaurant has both a traditional service side, where tipping is optional, and a self-service side where you find your own table and pick up your food, so tipping isn't necessary. The **ambiance is one of the best things about this place**. If you're a sports fan, you'll love it. There's tons of sports memorabilia throughout the restaurant and plenty of TVs showing different games. It's a great place to hang out, grab some food, and watch sports. Being right across the street from Fresno State is also a huge plus. The only real downside is the **parking**. They definitely need to find a way to increase the amount of parking because it can be difficult to find a spot. Overall, this is a great place with **good food, generous portions, reasonable prices, excellent service, and an unbeatable sports atmosphere**. Definitely worth checking out!

Stayed in Fresno for a couple of days for work. After an hour of cooling of in the hotel (it was…read more103 degrees) my coworker and I met up with a team mate who suggested Dog House Grill. He lives in Fresno and knows where all the good spot to eat were. DHG is my kind of bar & grill. It's lively, with good food, lots of beer options, big screen TVs playing sport and filled with locals. I went with the ABC burger, which was fantastic. My team mate mentioned that was his go-to burger. As a matter of fact all three of us ordered the same burger. We also ordered french fries, onion rings and yeah, multiple pints of beer. Everything was great and I see why it is so popular. We all agreed this would be the location for our next team meeting. And now for the pics.

It felt like you were at a family member's house. Yet, the food wasn't good to us. The Mac and Cheese and greens were horrible. The place needs updating. The Red Velvet Cheesecake was ok.

Came in yesterday. They made us wait out in the cold for them to open 45 minutes late. The staff…read moreseemed irritated to be there. After waiting to get in it took 40 minutes to get our food if not longer. We got a few things 1. Fried chicken - it was good, crispy and juicy 2. Ribs - we hated these they were drenched in sauce. I would prefer sauces on the side. It ruined them and they were on the tough side. 3. Rice and gravy - enjoyed this 4. Spaghetti - it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. Had a strange aftertaste 5. Spicy cabbage - it was not spicy it was sweet and gooey and it was not good 6. Cornbread - a bit burnt for our liking 7. Lemon pudding cake - this was decent but also overly sweet. By the time we left the staff warmed up to having people there. They also charged 2 dollars for water which I thought was not okay. Water should be free at any restaurant. We paid 6 dollars for koolaid as well which is very high but it was good. Our entire bill was 46 and I feel like for what we got it wasn't a good deal. The restrooms were disgusting. I am not sure if I would be back. I was really looking forward to this place but I'll stick with chef Paul's.

I decided to try this place out in the way to Disneyland and boy am I happy that I did. Hands down…read moresome great BBQ. Staff is so friendly, owners are present and greeting customers as they walk up. It shows how much they truly love and appreciate their customers. We came out on a very hot day but still decided to eat in the patio, I love that they think of the heat and have umbrellas for the tables. You enter the dining area and get in line on the left hand side and grab a menu. Review while you stand in line so you can order at register.. they take your name and call you once your order is ready. It took about a 7 min wait with all the food I ordered. Order: 2 meat plate - 10/10 tri-tip & brisket 10/10 great Smokey flavor. Juicy with a perfect crust. Sides- green chili Mac and cheese 10/10 Potato salad - 9/10 great flavor and a nice cold side for the warm BBQ Rice Pilaf - 8/10 good flavor, not dry Brisket Chili beans 10/10 good flavor with the perfect amount of meat and beans Chicken lollipop- 10/10 moist chicken drumstick wrapped in bacon and bbq sauce. Texas Twinkie- 10/10 jalapeño stuffed with cream cheese and brisket wrapped in bacon. A must try... big enough to have as part of a meal My sister ordered the chopped chicken sandwich, I only rate this as a 6/10 because I was not a fan of the sweet bbq sauce and that is what is the chicken is drenched in.. spicy bbq sauce was not spicy at all in my opinion but I like spicy food. The sweet bbq sauce was too tangy for me. If we knew and change the sauce the sandwich would of been a 10/10 Banana pudding 10/10 so yummy, the perfect sweetness Last but not least, the chile verde ribs were fire 10/10 such a great combination. The ribs were tender and full of flavor I need to make this a regular stop for now on.

Really enjoyed my visit to Mega Texas BBQ. The Texas Twinkies were some of the best I've ever had…read more Seriously. Better than Texas. They were that good. The BBQ was great, but what really stood out to me was the owner. He took a good 20 minutes to explain his methods, what goes into the process, and the passion he has for his craft. You can tell this isn't just a business to him; he genuinely cares about what he's putting out and the people who come to enjoy it. Great food, great conversation, and you can tell there's a lot of pride behind the BBQ. Plenty of places to eat outside and decent amount of seating inside. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Fresno. Check the days and times as they're not open 7-days a week. Don't want you to be disappointed.

OK, Westwoods- not too shabby! Came here on a weekday night with some girls for a lite meal. We…read moremade reservations, and were seated right away. As a vegetarian, coming to a BBQ place is always an adventure, but this place did not disappoint! I enjoyed a Wedge Salad minus the bacon, with dressings on the side. It was crisp, fresh, and quite ample in size. A wedge is typically cut in fourth or thirds, but this was like the entire bottom half of a head of lettuce. Good times, with leftovers to take home. The croutons were scrumptious, and I loved the slivered radishes too. So, follow me here- ya gotta have bread, right? I took down an entire order of Texas Toast, all by my lonesome! It was that good! Did I want to offer it to others, sure...but did I, nope! I highly recommend it! Such great textures overall! To top it all off, we shared a strawberry pizza. It was absolutely delicious- size was superb- definitely shareable. My takeaway, the usual BBQ Meals are of course faves for many- but for me, my choices were perfect, there is surely something for everyone. Well done.

Absolutely everything on the plate was cold. The ribs were bone dry, literally snapped apart. The brisket was 50% dry meat and 50% fat. The sausage was cold and mealy. The chicken was limp and cold. Everything was so disappointing. The beans were tomato based and extremely sweet, the Mac and cheese was mush, the green beans and Texas toast were the best parts of the meal. My husband got the tri-tip dip, which was good. That was the only food we enjoyed in the evening. Someone else in our group got the burnt ends, which were not very crisp and were extremely fatty. We guess that eating around 8:15pm meant we got all the leftover, dried out meat from the day. So disappointing for the price point. We got whiskey sours which were good! Overall, would not recommend and will not be back. There are so many other places in Fresno to have a much better meal for the price point. A bit of a harsh review, but we were so disappointed.

During our visit they were out of a lot of items and only had tri-tip, boneless ribs, and pulled pork. I was bummed because I love burnt ends. I went with the boneless ribs, baked beans, and coleslaw. The boneless ribs were delicious! Super tender, juicy, and slathered in a tangy BBQ sauce. My son loved the ribs as well. I tried my wife's tri-tip and it was just ok. The sides were also really good, with my favorites being the coleslaw, beans, and mac n cheese. For me, coleslaw is a staple for any good BBQ spot and Chuck's is spot on. Plus their mac n cheese is super creamy and fave for the whole table. I'd suggest calling in your order, in the morning to make sure that you'll get access to their full meaty menu.

It was a quick interaction but I appreciate any great customer service. I got a 12 piece that came with veggies, ranch and 2 sauce options. I chose to go with lemon pepper and atomic. Lemon pepper is one of my go to for wing sauces/seasoning and you could really taste the lemon pepper, some places are shy on the seasoning. The atomic had great flavor but was lacking in the spiciness, I think it could use a little more heat. The wings were cooked perfectly and very flavorful. I would like to come back to try their other sauces. Looking forward to try their garlic Parmesan. I'd like to also mention that I love the fact that they take tap pay, usually small mom and pop shops don't take tap to pay, so that is a plus.
