2 meat platter
Ceivy M.

This BBQ place is a must go. When I got to El Paso last year, I was told I had leave the state and to go to Cloudcroft for good BBQ. Tony's is leagues above Cloudcroft. As soon as you walk in, the people inside welcome you in with a cheery and familiar disposition. I think it's the first time since I moved here that I felt like a local walking into a small family owned place, it felt great! The ribs are juicy on the inside yet crunchy on the outside, meat falling off the bone when you take a bite. The chili tasted and looked like bean soup, certainly not a Texas chili, but it was amazing nonetheless. I'll definitely be back for more.

Brisket sandwich

Hacía mucho tiempo que no veníamos, y sigue estando muy rico el sabor es diferente a las cadenas de BBQ que he probado este brisket y la salsa es casera. Todo sabe muy rico. Un servicio al cliente cálido. Los mejores sándwiches de BBQ del Paso.

2 meat combo- beef and chicken breast.
Jill W.

I am from California and was only in El Paso for a day. The BBQ need was hitting me, and we found Tony's. Thank goodness we did! For starters, their hospitality, service and unpretentious welcoming attitude was refreshing! Many restaurants should train with their staff on hospitality. Next, the BBQ was classic! I ordered the 2 meat combo that comes with 2 sides. I got beef and chicken breast- both were cooked perfectly. The beef was thinly sliced and tender, the chicken breast was great and not dry. It was what I think of when I think of wanting chicken. Great sides- tasty macaroni salad and savory, good chili beans. Their BBQ sauce was slather worthy. Plenty of food at a great price. Please go there. You'll leave with a smile on your face.

My friends and I had dinner at Neighbor Good Kitchen & Bar on Friday, May 1 during BTS weekend in…read moreEl Paso, and it was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely amazing -- everything we ordered was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully prepared. You could tell a lot of care went into both the menu and presentation. What really stood out, though, was how attentive and genuinely kind our server was throughout the evening. Even with how busy El Paso was that weekend, we never felt rushed or overlooked. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and it ended up being one of our favorite dining experiences of the trip. If I return to El Paso in the future, Neighbor Good Kitchen & Bar will definitely be on my list of places to visit again.

For starters I would say this spot was simply okay. I would bring some friends here for drinks and…read morevibes but I wouldn't come back on my own accord. For starters the atmosphere was so cute. Absolutely loved the bar and hanging pots everywhere. Such a clean restaurant and cute vibe. Our waitress was very nice and friendly to us. So no issues there! For drinks I got their berry lemonade which tasted just like lemon juice. I had to request for sugar to be added since it was so sour so beware. My food had came out and to be honest I'm just a little bit disappointed. The rigatoni was cooked but the sauce for it was really not tasty? Like there was almost not a flavor I can taste. Of course there was something but it was very plain and barely even there. It also was not spicy whatsoever. I added grilled chicken too and oh boy was that dry dry DRY. The burrata personally I'm not a fan in general so of course I wouldn't be a fan this time either but they gave a nice little plate full of it. They added some oiled toasted bread and it was way too crispy in my opinion. My partner got the chicken Parmesan and his dish tasted great! Very juicy chicken and cooked all the way. The sauce was perfect too nice and flavorful and great pairing with the chicken. His butter noodles were just like regular butter noodles so not bad. Finally the crème brûlée. Probably the most disappointing dish we ordered. It took repeated stabs to break the sugar glaze on top. Me and my partner were honestly thinking that they added the cream on top to hide how burnt it was actually. Unfortunately because the glaze was so thick and burnt it made the rest of the cream taste have the burnt flavor. It was sad because my partner was looking forward to this desert. Also took wayyy longer to arrive than our entrées. I will say that the waitress was very helpful and she actually covered the crème Brulé. I didn't even ask she just offered, I think she could tell that we didn't enjoy it and I had nicely told her it wasn't what we were expecting so thank you sincerely. Overall I think this is a perfect spot to maybe try drinks and hang with friends. Food was okay, wouldn't try it again in that regard but overall a decent spot here in El Paso if you're looking for something new. Maybe best to ask what's their best dish to serve. Overall thank you.

Oh man I'll admit that this place took me by surprise in the best way possible! My friends and I…read morewere in town and were looking for a solid place to eat when we came across this spot through Yelp. I ordered the skirt steak that was drizzled with chimichurri sauce. The steak was well seared and at the temperature I requested, medium, which is sometimes hard to do with this cut of steak. It was well-seasoned and juicy! The potatoes and green beans were cooked perfectly as well. Our server was really kind and efficient when it came to servicing the size of our party. This is definitely a place worth checking out when you're in town!

Easy to find location in downtown El Paso. Lots of seating inside with some patio seating as well…read more I got here for lunch, and the server was very nice. I ordered the calamari and the skirt steak. The calamari was very crispy, and came out super fast (like, within minutes). Plate wise, it looks massive, but I could have definitely finished it off by myself. The skirt steak was a different story. It took forever to come out. I was texting a friend from when I ordered to when I received it, and it took 30 minutes. I don't totally understand how since the restaurant barely had any tables... but it was good? In that time though, I didn't know where my server was, and no one has checked in on me so I didn't even know how to ask about my food. Under normal conditions, I think I would be happy with this meal, and would order it again. Would I come back? I think so. The salmon sounded very yummy. I don't think I'd order the calamari again though.

Hallelujah BBQ is the kind of place that reminds you why Texas barbecue has the reputation it does…read more The brisket was the clear standout. Thick slices with a beautiful smoke ring, deep flavor, and that perfect balance of tenderness and structure. It was juicy without being greasy, and the bark had just the right bite. The brisket sandwich was equally satisfying. Simple, honest, and generous, with crisp onions and a soft bun that let the meat shine. The ribs had great flavor, but were a bit on the dry side during this visit. Still enjoyable, but the brisket definitely stole the show. Sides were a mix. The green beans were outstanding. Easily some of the best I've had at a barbecue spot. Full of flavor and clearly cooked with care. The beans and cornbread were solid and comforting. The coleslaw, though, didn't quite stand out and was the only item I'd probably skip next time. The space itself adds to the experience. Open, casual, and unpretentious. It feels like a place focused on doing barbecue right rather than trying to be trendy. FYI: You order first & they bring out the food to you. Overall, Hallelujah BBQ is absolutely worth visiting, especially for the brisket and those green beans. I'll definitely be back.
