This place is a must-try! The food is amazing...Everything we ate was fire. Service was great, Crystal the waitress was very friendly & attentive. We had the classic margarita at Happy Hour 2-5pm for only $5 . The food portions were huge. I had the sliders, and they were like full sandwiches. My Handsum Hubby had the create-your-own combo with came with 1/2 pound of meat of your choice . Everyone took home boxes of leftovers. And our leftovers were almost a full meal size. We left here feeling happy & so so full. Definitely must stop by here!

Considering it's Boulder City, Nevada and its reputation of NOT being friendly with African Americans or Latinos I had a awesome experience at this restaurant. Staff was friendly, food and drinks came so fast I almost didn't want to leave. Thank God I cut myself off at $100 I could easily spent several hundred here that's how comfortable I felt. Next time I'm going back and I will order more off the menu and give a more thorough review

Stopped in on our way back from hoover dam on a Sunday. Had a 5 minute wait but it went quick. There server was extra knowledgeable about the mine and was able to help us navigate our way to what we were looking for. Food was served quick and we were not rushed to leave.

Lovely spot that was recommended by several who live in town. When we entered, we were kindly greeted by a hostess who seated us promptly in the bar. Very nice vibe in there! Prices are very fair at around $17 for half a pound. 1 pound of meats and 2 slices of very yummy Texas toast was PERFECT for the 2 of us! Very tasty BBQ! Only issue is that it was slightly dry and required BBQ sauce. Luckily, their sauce is REALLY good. Seems like a solid choice in Boulder City!

I’ve been to Fox Smokehouse BBQ in Boulder City once before, and ever since, I’ve been wanting to go back to try something new. This time, I ordered the baby back ribs with a side of coleslaw—and I have to say, the ribs were cooked to absolute perfection. They were incredibly tender—so much so that I didn’t even need a knife to separate them from the bone. Juicy, flavorful, and smothered in just the right amount of BBQ sauce, these ribs were some of the bests I’ve had in a long time. Along with the ribs, I also had their loaded baked potato, and all I can say is—just look at the photo. It was massive (close to a pound), served piping hot, and everything about it hit the mark. The meat, the toppings, and the potato itself were all perfectly balanced and layered for maximum flavor. The coleslaw, while not the best I’ve ever had, was still quite good and worked well alongside the rich BBQ. It added a refreshing contrast to the smoky, savory flavors of the meat and sauce. I also really enjoyed the interior. The wooden tables, tastefully colored walls, and old-fashioned style carpet all gave the place a warm, rustic charm that made it feel like a true BBQ joint. The service was outstanding. Our server was soft-spoken, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. She checked in just the right amount—not too much, but enough to make us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. If you're a fan of BBQ, I highly recommend checking out Fox Smokehouse BBQ. You won’t regret it. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Fast and friendly service Had the brisket sandwich with mac & cheese. The raw red onion and way too much coleslaw drown out the great flavor of the brisket itself. Ease off the toppings and let the meat shine! The mac & cheese...OMG! Easily one of the top 3 I've ever had in my life. The bits of meat in it are nice but the superstar of the dish is the seasonings! They need to offer a giant bowl of this stuff as a main dish
