    Inside the Dickies off College St.
    Paul P.

    Love Dickies and this was located in Carson City. Great tasting and value BBQ. I enjoy fried okra so I ordered a double serving. We got the yellow cups. Wish we lived closer as I would be back often for this BBQ. Service was fast and helpful. It's not fast food but we received our order in a timely and expected fashion. The restaurant was clean inside and even had a TV. We enjoyed it!

    What color is this cup?

    Well, it's definitely an improvement over my last visit and I do have to say the employees we're friendly and welcoming. However, I didn't see a curb inside that restaurant yet. I had a curbside order. I also don't have a big yellow cup in my hand. I have a big clear cup in my hand, but still paid for a big yellow cup. I haven't eaten the food yet but so far I'm not holding out any high hopes. How do you screw up every single time? Is it me? It seems like anywhere I go anymore the best I can hope for is that I don't die. I don't get poisoned, or sick because that's about it. Is it too much to ask for somebody to do their job and I don't mean the bare minimum to keep them employed I mean your

    Texas Brisket Sandwich Combo & fried okra
    Don

    Average food. Basic BBQ done to appeal to most palates. The place was very clean, the employees appeared to have and practice good sanitation. All in all, an enjoyable mediocre American BBQ chain restaurant experience. If you expected to be wowed, you won't. If you expect basic Americana fair, you will be placated. BJs in Carson may be a better option, but this place was fast, easy and decent.

    Brisket, sausage, Mack and cheese, Texas toast, fries, regular bbq and spicy bbq sauce.

    Food is awesome. Love that they put the sauce on the side and don't drench it in bbq sauce. Service was 10/10 and they were very nice and accommodating. Ambiance is western style but they also had a tv playing Ready Player One and i love to watch shows or a movie while eating! Over all will come back again! Brisket is moist and falls apart easily, pull pork was a little dry but add a little of that spicy bbq sauce and it's great! Potato salad and beans were really good too. Mac and cheese tasted regular and the fries taste freshly made, comes out fresh and crispy! Do call before you go just in case they don't have the ribs ready! Will come back to try more of the meats!

    Obviously ate the food that I paid for. But overall not recommended, food was below average. Fries were soggy and basically cut baked potatoes, I ordered cut brisket and was served "brisket" cut along with the grain, basically pulled pork but beef edition. Will never go back, and rather cook my own brisket. So sad, especially when they are claiming new ownership. Service was great but food wasn't.

The restaurant is packed with…read moreold-time Americana and vintage artifacts, giving you something interesting to look at everywhere you turn. They also have an incredible beer selection with well over 100 beers on the menu, so there's something for everyone. A word of advice make reservations if you can. The wait was nearly an hour and it's easy to see why. We started with the fry bread and the jalapeño bombs. The fry bread was delicious, but those jalapeño bombs were an absolute 10/10 and a must-order. We originally came for the prime rib, but unfortunately they had already sold out around 6 p.m., which was definitely disappointing. Thankfully, the food that did make it to our table erased that disappointment pretty quickly. We ordered the two-meat BBQ plate with ribs and brisket, and both were cooked to perfection. The meat was tender, smoky, and paired perfectly with their delicious BBQ sauce. We also tried the spicy pot pie, which was unlike any pot pie I've had before, in a good way. It reminded me of an enchilada baked inside a buttery, flaky crust, and it was fantastic. The service was equally impressive. I feel terrible that I can't remember our server's name because he absolutely deserves the recognition. He was friendly, attentive, and made our entire experience even better. Between the amazing food, outstanding service, and unique atmosphere, this ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. In fact, it's probably the biggest reason I'd make the drive back to Carson City.

    Food Unfortunately,…read morethe food was very disappointing. The ribs tasted stale and almost jerky-like, as if they had been sitting out too long or reheated multiple times. The basket of wings was cold in the middle and tasted as though they had simply been microwaved. They also tasted old and lacked freshness. The Jump Up and Kiss Me Chicken was overcooked and extremely dry. The flavor was just okay, but there was nothing particularly special about the dish. Service The service was very poor. Our waitress repeatedly rolled her eyes and barely checked on us to see if everything was okay. I had to repeatedly get up myself to ask for condiments, refreshments, and napkins. Management I was also disappointed with how the manager handled my concerns. After I explained our experience, her response was essentially, "Okay, I'll pass along your comments." She did not seem concerned or interested in making the situation better. Unfortunately, I understood why the service was so poor after speaking with the manager. A manager should set the standard for customer service, and in this case, I did not feel that there was much care or concern for the customers. I used to love going to Reds when they had the previous manager. He was always kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about the customers. The food was also delicious and tasted fresh. It's disappointing to see how much the experience has changed. I really hope management takes this feedback seriously because Reds used to be a place I genuinely enjoyed visiting.

I went in big like a starving hostage and ordered a half rack of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, a Habanero Jalapeño Cheddar sausage link and a side of mac and F'n Cheese! My wife, she had the pulled chicken and a salad. First taste was the brisket, gotta go in for the brisket. The bark was so flavorful and there was the distinct smoke flavor. Unlike another place I've been to, this place was smoke forward and that's the vibe I like. Not bitter, but a good smoke. The pulled pork was out of this world and the ribs were just about perfect. Not fall off the bone but a great clean bite through. I know, I know everyone wants fall off the bone but hear me out, THAT'S JUST OVERCOOKED! Now let's talk about this sausage. If you aren't prepared for some serious heat (I should have known by the name) don't be a hero here. That link is damn hot. Like satan's b-hole hot. Flavor is amazing but it's hot as pawnshop wedding ring. I gotta say this place has got my attention. Not that it need my attention particularly, but you have it anyway. When I go to a BBQ restaurant, I want to taste smoke. That's what I'm there for. Butcher's Kitchen did not dissapoint. THEN!! the best part of the night was when they brought me and my wife back and showed us the smokers!! Like wizard of oz, ruby slippers, man behind the curtain sh*t, they showed me the damn smokers!

Our server, sorry forgot your name, was helpful and able to answer our questions, we decided on a few items and our party of six shared them. We ordered two pizzas (pepperoni and a capitol combo), we got the pretzel, caesar salad, BBQ brewmaster plate and a few beers. First off the pizzas are delicious and easy choice for anyone who comes here, it will not miss. The bbq platter was also very good, the portions are not huge but each sausage was tasty. The pig wings were tender and flavorful with the hot honey sauce. The pretzel was also great and paired with the stone ground mustard from the bbq plate was excellent. The only item that I think I would change would be the Memphis wings, they were on the salty side for all of us, the flavor is there but a lil too salty, I think the hot honey sauce would have been a hit on those wings. We tried a few beers the lager, Juicy IPA and an amber ale. I skipped the lager, my dad enjoyed his brew. As for the other two, I found them to be refreshing with a nice balance of hops for each of them and a great companion to the dishes we ordered. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely stop by.
