    Famous Dave's brisket
    Yvonne R.

    Don't order brisket by the pound. Paid $23 for 1 pound of fat. We expect some fat but not half the weight.

    The food and service was soooo much better than the last time we were here! I'm glad we gave Famous Dave's another shot. The food was great! The beef tips were tender and just fell apart. and the potato salad was out of this world! Wow! The side salad was fresh, and not bad at all. The server was very nice as well. She was attentive and kept checking on us. Recommended! 5/5

    We had put in an order for an All-American BBQ Feast for our family dinner so nobody felt pressured to cook. Our order confirmation told us to pick up our order at 5:37pm. We first went to pick up our order around ~5:45pm. Upon arrival, the staff informed us it wasn't ready, that it would take 15 more minutes. We went to another store in the meantime. We came back and they said it was still it ready. It was already ~6:00pm. Eventually when we returned, it still wasn't ready. At this time, it was 6:15pm. I asked to speak to a manager since it seemed ridiculous that our order was 40 minutes late. Their staff apologized stating that they were "very busy". Their manager, Matthew, quickly came out with our order "magically" completed. He apologized for the wait, but that's it. It was pretty disappointing they expected their customers to just deal with how busy they were. It would have just been better to put a realistic pick-up time instead of expecting us to wait 40 minutes after the pickup time they stated.

    worse raw chicken i ever had never going back to that place !!!!! also ribs were pretty dry seems like they have them ready from days

    What do you do when you're only minutes from the airport and discover your flight has been delayed? Well, you pull into Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que and have a delicious meal of course! The brisket was tender, juicy, and wonderful! The burnt ends were scrumptious, and the ribs were so tender and juicy they practically fell off the bone! Their beans, coleslaw, and cornbread were all great, and the Mac-n-cheese, just wow! The only drawback was their "sweet" tea - which didn't live up to my Southern sweet tea standards (but by no means will it keep me from coming back). I'm so happy we stopped as I had heard good things about them and had been wanting to try them. Everyone was polite, courteous and friendly. If you haven't tried them yet, I highly recommend you do. It's mighty excellent bar-b-que!

    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.

I called to cancel the order and offered to pay for the materials and labor, but the team here gracefully refused. They insisted I didn't owe a dime and focused instead on my son's wellbeing. In an industry where a $400 loss is significant, their compassion was truly overwhelming. It's rare to find a business that puts people above profits so selflessly. I cannot recommend them enough--not just for their food, but for the incredible character of the people who run it. I'll be a customer for life every time I'm in El Paso.

He was a super good doggie though. The service was great, fast, and food was fabulous. I had the $19 Poke Bowl. I ordered before I noticed the price. Yikes!

As a regular meat eater, it's not necessarily the type of restaurant I would be attracted to but the service & meal was very pleasant. Jake was on point with his service & recommended the daily specials - which included the "meat"ball sub sandwich with salad. I also opted in for the Mac & Cheese appetizer because it sounded great. Ordered a manzanita drink (drink selection is a little different than many other restaurants). The Mac & Cheese appetizer was delicious! Actually, my favorite part of the meal! The sub sandwich came with a simple green salad that was a nice combo. The sandwich bread was soft & warm and included meatballs covered in sauce & melted cheese. Not bad at all but due to my own personal preference the meatballs weren't my personal favorite. In the future, I think I'll lean toward options that don't feature "meat" because of my preference but for those who look for or prefer vegan options, go visit Jake & check out this new downtown El Paso eatery!

The dishes were very well made, as if the owners were preparing them for themselves. We could tell a lot of care went into preparing them. I ordered Gom Bibim.
