Dickey’s Barbecue Pit

I’ll always give this place 5 stars because the BBQ here is just awesome. Good cuts of meat and over a dozen side dishes to choose from. Lots of drink choices too and FREE soft-​serve ice cream! I got the pulled pork and beef brisket combo plate which was damn good.

For bbq this place for me was just ok. They only serve spare ribs which have only been cooked for 4 hours. While the meet came off the bone easily the top part was basically bad jerky and inedible unless you want to sit around for a few hours chewing.
I quite enjoyed the bbq sauce — for me it was better than famous daves but then again I like a sweeter sauce.
Sides I thought were good but for sure not fresh and have been sitting under the heat lamp.
I would not come again only because for the price I should be able to eat every part of the rib and not have to throw out the jerky top.

better than famous dave’s & costs more but totally worth it. free ice cream when dining in

I’ve been to different Dickey’s across the country and this was a little below par compared to other location visits. Environment was friendly, staff was attentive, but the food wasn’t hot or even very warm, definitely not the way you want to enjoy barbecue food. Maybe it was an off night, but I don’t know if I’d eat here again.

Pretty mediocre. Barbecue sauce was fair. It’s better out of a bottle. Meat was fair too. Mac n cheese was nasty. You can easily find better food. And it was free for me too (someone else brought to into office).

This place is not good at all! The staff is irritated they have to work! Ain’t even average BBQ! It’s McDonald’s style BBQ turn and burn, microwaved sides. Want real BBQ go to John Mulls road kill BBQ it will change your life! Dickies go away!

This hole in the wall has really great food its right near the Spring Valley Hospital so great if you’re staying at the hospital.

One of my favorite «fast food BBQ «joints here in the valley. The gf and I usually come on wed/​thur for their daily deals, which is typically a sandwich or meat combo with two sides and the big yellow cup (I have over 10 at home) the combos are priced at 9.50, not bad for the generous portions you receive .
The staff here never forgets to take their happy pill lol please share with me next time :), but seriously all jokes and puns aside they’re so friendly and one gentleman in particular always walks around to see how you’re enjoying your food and if you need anything. Food is always fresh and tasty !
They offer 3 different BBQ sauces — spicy, original and sweet. All different and tasty.
When I pick my sides I always choose the fried okra and BBQ beans, because duh? The okra and the beans though!!! If you’re still hungry after your feasting enjoy their complimentary self serve ice cream station !

I have been to Dickies several times its like the fast food of BBQs. it’s good but it’s a little over priced with the influx of BBQs in Las Vegas they really need to rethink their pricing maybe some employee training on friendliness. if it’s past regular dinner hours and there’s no other choice I will go back its got pros and cons. I saw somebody else say this and I have been in there 30 – 40 minutes before closing and they do give you the death look.

Love this place. My second time here and it is one of the best BBQ for the money. The staff is friendly and the environment is easy, clean and welcoming. The only thing that would make it better is deliver. A must try for lunch… and catering.

If you are looking for good BBQ, look elsewhere. If you are looking for reheated meats and microwaved sides, keep reading. Obviously this place is a chain, but I didn’t know this until I did some further research after eating here. This is a fast casual type of place, where you order and pay at the counter, then self serve drinks and condiments are around the corner. They have daily specials at $ 9.99 each. The special of the day (Friday) was pulled pork, 2 sides and a roll. I went with this deal, and also added a drink so my total was around $ 12. As soon as you tell the guys behind the counter what you want, they start preparing your food. The counter is super duper high, so you can’t see what is going on while the food is being made. This bugs me a little bit, but it’s not a deal breaker.
While my food was being prepared, I made my way around the corner to get my drink. Fountain sodas and sweet/​unsweet tea was on tap. I chose the sweet tea and it tasted pretty un-​sweetened to me. You could tell there was sugar in it, but if I am drinking sweet tea I want it to be SWEET. They give you a large souvenir cup that you can take home with you and reuse which is cool. Next to the drinks they have some vats of house made bbq sauces. Spicy, original and sweet, I got a cup of each.
I got back to work, and when I opened up the box of food excited to dig in, I was underwhelmed. Inside lay a pile of un-​sauced pulled pork, 2 raw white onion slices and a few dill pickle chips. A white roll accompanied my 2 side dishes of jalapeño beans and mac and cheese. Let me just say that the beans tasted like Bush’s from the can, and the mac and cheese tasted like Stouffers. The meat was not seasoned at all, there was no smoky flavor and I had to douse it in bbq sauce. I thought all the sauces tasted very similar. All in all, I can’t see myself coming back here.

First off, the description on their website about the meat platters is not accurate for this particular location. This is not enough to quench a meat eater’s craving as it falls a lot smaller in portion than what I was expecting. I ended up getting two orders of the 2 meat option (brisket & pulled pork) with fried onions and mac & cheese for carry out. What I ordered smelled amazing and the aroma got me so excited to dig into these two plastic wrapped bundles.
However, to my shock, the meats and fried onions were disproportionate in serving. The brisket and pulled pork serving in one to-​go container was smaller than the other, very annoying. Not to mention that their fried onions, the one thing that didn’t seem pre-​packaged, also came out disproportionate.
I have no idea if this is just a «to-​go» thing, but I’m willing to try «dine-​in» options.

Its been over 2 months now since Dickeys Management asked for my contact info.
Guess what? NO contact since then.
2^nd rule of good management: FOLLOW UP… perception is reality, so if the service is poor, then its not going to fix itself…

my first experience with Dickey’s BBQ was in Dallas and was very great so I was much excited to finally try it here in Vegas.
Great little street side restaurant with a walk up order style and food is prepped and sorted on the spot and ready by the time you hit the cash registered.
The service was very quick and all employee’s were very nice and polite.
Overall, the portion sizes seemed to be a little on the smaller side. I ordered the two meat combo, which I choose Pulled Pork and Sliced Brisket with baked beans and iron waffle fries. Nothing special about the baked beans and fries other than they were good.
Pulled pork was definitely moist but lacked any type of smoked or seasoning flavor. Brisket was a little dry and also lacked smoke taste but had appearance of dry rub.
The sauces available were all very good in taste and certainly helped flavor the meet, however, I am always looking for the meat itself to taste flavor before adding sauce.
The soft serve ice cream was a nice little addition available if you choose.
Overall it was okay but definitely not in comparision to my experience at Dickey’s in Dallas. TX.

I absolutely love Dickey’s, and come here at least once every other week for lunch. The daily specials are killer deals, and the sides are fantastic. From green beans with bacon to loaded mash potato casserole to fried okra, it feels just like the southern food I grew up with in Tennessee. The spicy cheddar sausage and chopped beef brisket are both personal favorites! You shouldn’t neglect their spicy barbecue sauce, and don’t forget the free softserve ice cream cones!

I have been here a few times.
My choices have ranged from BBQ Brisket salad to a full on meal.
It is aways good, but not amazing.
Dickey’s is a rock solid 3 stars, perfect for a quick bite served with a smile.

This place isn’t so bad if you arrive with low expectations. I had a coupon so we ended up picking two to go plates to take horn with us.
My fella and I both chose the two meat combo. They have pretty limited selections of meats and from these choices I picked the spicy cheddar sausage and the pulled pork and the potato casserole and mac & cheese.
We were in and out in no time and took our meals home to enjoy. The meat was dry, both moisture-​wise and sauce-​wise. They didn’t put any BBQ sauce on any of the meats and they provided a very tiny portion in the takeout container. Luckily we had some of our own to douse the meat with. The sausage was spicy and tasty but nothing I couldn’t have purchased in a prepackaged container from the grocery store. The pulled pork was decent but definitely needed more sauce.
My two favorite things about Dickey’s were the potato casserole which is essentially loaded mashed potatoes and the crushed ice from the drink machine. I don’t think that’s enough to draw me back without a coupon.

Dude. This place is HEAVENLY.
Been here about four or five times with my girlfriend and we have never walked out disappointed, however we went last night around 8:30 and we were beyond satisfied…
Dickey’s has daily specials — $ 9.99 each. Yesterdays was a pulled pork and spicy cheddar sausage sandwich and it came with two sides. I got the mac and cheese and waffle iron fries, my GF got the fried okra and jalapeño beans. If you’ve read my past reviews you know I’m stupidly lactose intolerant — yeah, no, I regret nothing because this mac and cheese was like a tiny orchestra playing O Fortuna in my mouth (Google it). Also, I tried fried okra for the first time here and let me wish every other establishment that gets blessed with my presence good luck because Dickey’s set the okra bar PRI-​TY high. The beans are always perfect; the fries are always a crispy gold. Ugh, delicious.
Not to be outdone by the food, Dickey’s also offers a variety of self-​serve BBQ sauces for those of you who are like me and like to DRENCH their food in sauce. Go big or go home, right? My favorite is the spicy flavor. In addition to the sauces, they have packaged ketchup which I always appreciate because it minimizes the amount of wasted product (plus I can take my unused ones home and stash in my «unused condiments» drawer for when the struggle is real). And instead of those ugly WHITE plastic utensils, you get pretty silver utensils for when you’re feeling classy but need to be reminded that, hey, you’re eating BBQ and are gonna get messy so don’t take yourself so seriously.
Dickey’s also offers pecan pie for purchase and self-​serve ice cream cones FO FREE! The drinks come in these large plastic yellow souvenir cups that are absolutely perfect for traveling or drinks on the go. I think my GF and I have about six now.
Okay — so I said last night I was beyond satisfied and believe it or not, it wasn’t exactly because of the food. Again, if you’ve read my previous posts you’ll know that I am a firm believer that no matter how good your food is it means nothing if your service sucks and if your service sucks I will not return. The service here is always great but last night the staff went beyond ANY customer service I’ve ever received. Every time we walk in we’re immediately greeted. This time we were greeted by a young man named Dustin. I’m not sure how old Dustin is but obviously at least 16 (Dustin, if you’re reading this and you’re a lot older than 16, I’m sorry. I too get mistaken for a 16 year old and I’m 26. We’ll be thankful for it later). Dustin had the manners that I hope my children have one day. It was «ma’am» this and «sir» that. He thanked us for coming in, he checked on us when we were eating. Rather than go up to ask for boxes, he came and brought some for us. My GF ended up tipping twice LOL.
In addition to Dustin there was also another gentleman whose name I didn’t get. He was working the grill and had the best attitude — very friendly, charismatic, patient. At one point during our meal another customer went to the counter and told them their rolls were hard and their pork was cold, then looked at his «companion» and asked «any other complaints?» Honestly a few other comments they made, made me realize these people were a bit obnoxious. Regardless I watched the staff apologize and remake their meal. After giving the couple their new food I continued watching the staff, waiting to see an eye-​roll or look of frustration. Nope, I was wrong. They all just went back to doing their job and that impressed me. It was near closing time and it would’ve been easy to be a bit annoyed but they weren’t — instead they made the customers happy because regardless of how wrong someone may be, the customer is «always right.» Honestly I was beyond impressed. Thank you all for doing what you do and not only making the most amazing BBQ food but for providing the best customer service my girlfriend and I have ever received. We’ve been to a lot of restaurants, a lot of hotels, many businesses, etc., and this is the first time I was ever excited to write a review on a business based solely on the way they conducted themselves.
Okay, I’m getting all sentimental now.
Fin.

MEATS:
The beef brisket is moist and tender, I just wish it has bit smokier flavor. The ribs are tender, juicy, finger licking good. The spicy cheese sausage has a nice kick (although a bit greasy and not as smoky as I want).
SIDES:
The side are tried are: fried okra — delicious, crispy and not greasy, Mac and cheese (very good according to my daughter. Once more, she did not share), fried onion tanglers — cut small and flavorful, potato salad — has dill flavor which I like.
Ordering is a breeze. Staff are nice and helpful. Place is small but clean. Will be back.
TIPS:
Kids eat FREE Sundays. Yay!
They have a FREE self serve soft serve ice cream. Yay!

There is not a lot of good barbeque in Vegas, so I was pleased to hear about this place a little over a year ago. Its ‘fast-​food’ barbeque that is JUST as good as Lucille’s for a third of the price.
I eat here way to much. Having lived in the south for a number of years I’m always looking for a good pulled pork sand which with pickles and onions. These guys always satisfy the craving without breaking the bank.
