    The hamburgers here are amazing. Our server was very nice and attentive. Seating is comfortable with tables and chairs. There is some outside seating and they have an improvised drive up, pick up system.

    Talk About Small Town Foodie Stop.. I used to live here back in the 90's and the food was great then.. Still is.. I was in town to put flowers down for family and drive around revisiting places and had to stop in.. Place was busy inside, but the staff still welcomed me when I walked in and took my order.. I ordered fried mushrooms with fry sauce.. Yum Yum!! This place is worth the stop..

    Food was very good and reasonably priced; had the fish and chips combo and hubs had the pit stop burger and fries....love their fries. They give you fry sauce, ranch dip, tartar sauce and cocktail sauce. Ambiance was nice down home. Server Sydney was very attentive and courteous. Am planning on coming back here!

    Decent sized food at a decent price. It's super casual and not touristy at all. Waitresses seemed to know many of the patrons. You can order online and pick up as a drive thru. Small place. TVs had sports and Fox News. It's a mix of tables and booths. Got seated quickly, got our food fast, and the food was decent. A side of fries is huge and can easily be shared amongst 2 or 3 people.

    Stopped by to have lunch before going to see my dad at the Veterans Cemetery. We had a really good, fresh meal. This place is so cute and the staff is very attentive. See my pics

    Honestly, I was quite shocked that everything went so smooth & the fact they had anything on the menu that I could eat. Love the old 1950's diner feel. Veggie burger exceeded my expectations! I can't tell if they make it or it's frozen & it doesn't matter because it was delicious. I added mushrooms, jalapeños, fresh avocado, & of course mustard & ketchup. French Fries were also incredible! They were thin & tasty! & the Soda Fountain had a great amount of carbonation! & lastly, the service was fantastic. So friendly, polite, & kind. It was a beautiful last minute lunch my partner & I were able to enjoy. Appreciate you all!

    Everything about this spot, reminded me of home. This diner brought warmth to my heart. The food was amazing, the service was top notch (Rylyn), and the ambiance is welcoming. Everyone was very friendly. The burgers are big and will definitely fill you up! Get the fried mushrooms!! Chefs kiss

    Dam Burger with bacon and American cheese. I had to take a couple bites before taking pictures.

Food They offer a few different types of smash burgers as well as hot dogs, grilled cheese, fries, and tots. I went with the O.G. Smash and added two patty's for four total. The burgers are awesomeo. They have nice crispy edges and pack loads of flavor. 5/5 Service Crispy Boi is essentially a food truck, so you just order at the window. It's pretty popular, so food can take a longer amount of time depending on orders. Staff are always friendly though. 5/5 Ambiance The ambiance is based on the ambiance of Beer Zombies, which has a nice outdoor area and little pond. There are multiple tables, which are regularly full. 5/5 Crispy Boi is a hidden gem of southern Nevada. The burgers are reasonably priced and pair well with the beers.

This place has a legit small-town feel and serves some excellent barbecue. We ordered the Burger special, sliders (one pork and one brisket), and The Brisket sandwich. The sliders were huge for sliders and served on big toasted buns and piled high with coleslaw, onions, pickles, and pepperoncinis. Both meats were flavorful and tender. The brisket sandwich was outstanding: certified Angus beef cooked low and slow, seasoned with their Texas-style rub, sliced thick, and stacked high on grilled Texas toast. Very satisfying. For drinks, we had a couple Hazy Fox IPAs and two Huckleberry Lemonades that were on special for $5, which were a fun and refreshing choice. The sides were just as impressive. My family ordered the 50/50 bowl with half mac & cheese and half cowboy beans which was outstanding. The cowboy beans were especially packed with flavor. We also tried the fried okra and potato salad. The okra was amazing; crispy and delicious. The potato salad was just okay for me and a little bland, but I'm from the north, so I know everyone makes potato salad differently depending on the region. Overall, Fox Smokehouse BBQ was a great stop with delicious food, generous portions, and a welcoming hometown vibe. Definitely worth visiting if you're near Boulder City.

Wait Time: Between all three visits, there was an average wait time of 20-30 minutes. When we arrived to the window to pay on our first visit, we were told to take a lap around the drive-thru and that our order would be ready upon our return. It turned out we arrived to the window and waited about 20 minutes before we received our order. Order: With the wait time in mind, please remember that Rome wasn't built in a day--so don't expect a quality meal to be ready within five minutes. With that being said, we ordered the 1). double cheeseburger with fries, 2). crispy chicken sandwich with fries, 3). fish and chips, 4). chicken tenders, 5). a strawberry shake, and 6). a chocolate shake between our three visits. The quality across all three visits was consistent and detailed here: 1). The Double Cheeseburger was cooked to our doneness preference. The bun was toasted with light butter and a slight crunch to the bite. The patties were juicy and well-seasoned. The cheese was evenly melted on the patties. The condiments did not overpower the patties' flavor. The toppings were the standard lettuce, tomato, and onions--which worked harmoniously with the rest of the burger, making for one of the best burgers I have ever had. Upon first glance, it meets my expectations of what a burger should be. 2). Much like the Double Cheeseburger, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich was of excellent quality. All of its components worked collectively to deliver in flavor and texture, including the toasted bun with the slight crunch. It was a perfect Crispy Chicken Sandwich. 3). The Fries were flavorful (fry seasoning, salt), crinkle cut, and evenly fried throughout (i.e. you did not have some hard pieces and some soggy pieces). We recommend a side of ranch for dipping. 4). The Fish and Chips were your standard Fish and Chips--and I mean that in the best way. They were fried until the classic golden and served with tartar sauce. Again, everything you would expect out of Fish and Chips. 5). While the Chicken Tenders were good, they were not outstanding. We would not order them again due to the other superior items on the menu. 6). The Strawberry Shake was flavored with fresh strawberries and like the Chicken Tenders, it was not outstanding. The Chocolate Shake was a classic Chocolate Shake. If you are craving a shake, then go for it. Otherwise, there isn't anything that would separate these shakes from another good quality shake. Both shakes leaned toward a thicker consistency. Note: The medium sized shakes are huge. If we ever get one again in the future, we will order a small instead. Service: We felt welcomed during each visit and did not feel rushed at the intercom (all three of our visits were through the drive-thru). Prior to visiting, we were unsure of what to expect with the mixed reviews and ultimately decided that we would just find out for ourselves. We are so grateful that we made the choice to try Chilly Jilly'z, because it is now one of our favorite spots in Southern Nevada. We definitely recommend that you give it a try!

The server said they could do drinks to go if we liked. They were out of diet soda so I ordered an unsweetened tea. It was not the best but it was drinkable though bitter.

    The Chicken Shack (Don't harass people please)…read more Ambiance/Atmosphere: 4/5 - So, one of my family was feeling a little bit hungry and wanted to try this place in Boulder City for some food. I wasn't feeling too hungry after Last Stop Travel Center, but I ordered something anyway. - The inside was, to be honest, pretty calm. It was a bit dirty, but not to the point of it being really bad. - Not many people, a little empty but not bad. - It also has weird answers from famous figures on the immortal question of why did the chicken cross the road. Some of them like Lennon and Nixon are not good people. Service: 5/5 - Service was pretty good. They were nice and answered my question when I asked if free refills were a thing allowed (they were). Prices: 4/5 - I forgot to get a picture of the prices, but it is indeed a bit expensive, but they are much more fairly balanced than Last Stop (and don't charge $8 for a Hotdog). Food: 5/5 - You know what, after eating at Last Stop, this was a pretty good meal. Even by itself, the chicken and fries are solid. - Fry sauce reminds me of Cane's sauce, but it's pretty good as is. - Also, I tried to get Chili Cheese Fries just to compare to Last Stop, but they unfortunately were out of chili. Overall: 5/5 Stars Final Thoughts: For my first time eating at a Chicken Shack, I was pleasantly surprised when I ordered some food. This honestly feels like a completely different experience from Last Stop, and I wish this was the stop where we went to eat originally. Although I will admit there is no gas station (at least that I could see), if your passing through Boulder City, you should make this your last stop instead.

As much as I wanted to grab a fried chicken sandwich I went with a Papa burger. I found it to taste very salty but I'm also one who doesn't add salt to my food. The french fries were good but I didn't like the ketchup, it definitely wasn't Heinz....lol I did get some honey mustard to dip my fries in & they had Heinze packets & that didn't taste good either, it had a strong vinegar taste to it. Of course I had to get a Rootbeer float but watch out guys because there must be some secret to drinking it without it foaming up & the rootbeer spilling all out the glass & onto the counter/table. This happened to me as soon as I put my straw in the cool, glass A&W mug. I started chugging it down as if I was in a drinking contest trying to get it to stop from overflowing. I made a mess on the counter in the process. My friend had the same problem & while we were sitting in the dining room area this elderly couple had it happen to both of them & then this guy who was by himself. I then saw a young boy with a float & thought OMG its going to happen to him too!! It was actually entertaining to watch people drink their floats but this boy must of been a professional....lol I watched him & he first slowly pushed the scoop of ice cream down into the glass & started to eat that with a spoon, it wasn't really touching the soda and then he slowly put his straw in & started to drink away with no over flowing......I can't tell you the last time I had a soda (I don't drink soda anymore) but coming here I just had to have an A&W float.....This drink should come with instructions.....lol The decor inside is super cute & I even got some random lady to take a picture of me with the A&W bear. Someone was cleaning the restrooms when we got there so they were clean. Even saw some guy come to empty the change out of the PacMan machine. The guy taking our order @ the counter seemed a little slow & confused. My friend had placed her order & told him that she would be paying for our other friend when he asked "is this all together?" I told him I was separate. After my friend put his order in the kid was asking me what I wanted, I had to remind him I was separate. Once you have paid for your meal you get a pole with a # on it that you bring back to your table. Our meals came out quick. It's a pick up after yourself dining area. I'd definitely come back for the Rootbeer float challenge & see if I can drink it without it spilling....I'd like to try out their fried chicken sandwich or tenders (I'll have to bring my own dipping sauce) & an ice cream cone. I did find their prices to be expensive but I liked how you could get a rootbeer float as your drink in the meal combo. My burger was big & my whole meal had me feeling full and I was having trouble finishing the burger. I'll be back!
