It was all excellent!! The staff was super amazing!! Very attentive and friendly I had pulled pork on top of mac and cheese! I love that they didn't smother everything with a sauce and i was able to try all of the sauces that were on the table. The atmosphere is super chill and relaxing read more

Local barbecue spot located in Henderson near the historic Water Street District. We came here because our British friend had been here on his last holiday and would not stop raving about it. Even though we are locals, we have never been. We came here on a Monday evening. It was decently crowded. Just a note, the restaurant does close pretty early at 7 PM on weekdays. You can't miss the location because it's located in the old Pizza Hut building by the Albertsons grocery store. When you walk in, you go to the front counter to order. They will bring your food to your table. There is a selection of sodas as well as beers. The two meats and a side is plenty enough for an average adult. I got the brisket and the pulled pork with the side of macaroni and cheese. Everything was so delicious. I could not finish. There's also a selection of homemade sauces on the table. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. read more

Best BBQ spot in Vegas. The food is absolutely incredible, perfectly smoked meats, packed with flavor, and cooked to perfection. The brisket is tender and juicy, the ribs fall right off the bone, and the sides are just as good (which can be rare for BBQ spots). You can taste the quality in every bite. It's a smaller, not somewhere you'd expect to find some of the best BBQ in Vegas but don't judge it by the location. It's 100% worth it and part of what makes it feel like a true hidden gem. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel like a regular even if it's your first time. Laid back vibe and authentic, exactly what you want from a great BBQ place! On separate occasions our cashiers were Kara & Jessica both super sweet, attentive, and friendly. read more

Don't let the outside fool you nor the lack of ambience inside. The food is OMG fantastic. We got the High Roller: bone in ribs, slices of the most tender beef strips, real homemade Mac n cheese, bbq beans. Gotta get my veggie in coleslaw. Very Fast service. If they ever decide to add dessert hope it's bread pudding or peach cobbler. The food will knock your socks off. read more

Food was tasty and the staff were extremely friendly! The chicken & brisket was insanely juicy, and the side dishes were well above regular standards. The place was small but very homey. Gave off the perfect BBQ vibes! Everything was exceptional and will definitely be coming back again soon. Review from August 2025 read more

Extremely cute place with very friendly staff. We both had the pulled pork and he got the spare ribs and I got the fatty brisket. The pulled pork was definitely the best thing on the table. Juicy, smoky and literally falls apart. The rib meat fell off the bone and my husband really enjoyed it. The fatty brisket is definitely fatty but it's rendered perfectly, so it's not chewy at all. The God Sauce is great on everything! I also really liked their vinegar Carolina sauce. I got the vinegar based slaw (I love that vinegar base with my pulled pork) and my husband got the waffle fries, which were super crispy and seasoned. It's a bit of a drive for us but definitely going in our BBQ rotation! read more

Honestly one of the best bbq spots around. The meat is perfectly cooked, nice and juicy with loads of flavor. Of the sauces, The God Sauce is so good. Overall, very impressed. It gets packed fast and this option does sell out quick. But the service and ambiance was great. Will definitely come back. read more

I discovered this restaurant on Yelp and couldn't wait to try it. It's very informal inside. You walk in and go to the counter and order. Next you find a seat. Seating is limited. We stopped by in the afternoon and it was fairly busy. I'm guessing that it's always busy. A lovely lady brought us our food and checked on us several times. Everyone was friendly. The food was delicious. The meat was very tender and tasty. The prices were fair. I recommend going here if you want some great BBQ. read more

This place is decent. I definitely wouldn't go out of the way for it. The brisket (fatty) was literally fatty. $14 bucks for a 1/2 lb of fat with scraps of meat. The ribs were just ribs...lacking flavor and that weird texture when you can bite a clean bite. No pull and not falling off the bone. The bbq sauce is boring...well the spicy was more flavorful but not spicy hot. Will I go back? Maybe. Will I tell everyone? No! If you do go, take some flavor with you! read more

Our first time a year ago was really good. Tried numerous items. Today we ordered a full rack of pork ribs to go. Was home and eating in 10 minutes. The meat had an odd slightly mushy texture and tasted a little bland. My friend, who loves the ribs, wouldn't eat them (can you say super picky)! And I can't eat the rest on my own which is disappointing because a paid $35.75 with tax. The lady at the register was super sweet. read more

After getting into the parking lot, which I found confusing due to construction, I realized the U-turn was worth it. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by staff. When I ask her for recommendations, she provided most popular suggestions and her favorites. Some things that make this place unique are their sandwich varieties, loaded items and their sides. I went with the 2 meats with one side, which included the chopped fatty brisket, smoked chicken and mac & cheese. The chopped fatty brisket was pulled apart and beautifully seasoned to the point. It did not need barbecue sauce. The smoked chicken was moist and well cooked and also well seasoned the mac & cheese was well seasoned, but I found the texture to be way too soft for my taste as for beverages. They offer some local beers and then they have a soda fountain, which is self serve once you get your cup. I also appreciated is that they have all the sauces at the table and paper towels and then on a table to the side that they have lids for the cups silverware and to go boxes so you do not have to to ask for them. The cashier was super friendly and greeted every person who came into the place with the same warmth. I look forward to returning and trying other items. The place is a low key barbecue place that isn't too fussy but the taste elevates it. read more

The food at Jessie Rae's was amazingly tender. We had a sampler plate which allowed for us to taste a little bit of everything. The service was friendly and welcoming.

Jessie Rae's is my go to for BBQ in Henderson! The restaurant itself is nothing special, it looks like it may have been a Pizza Hut in a past but that's ok! I don't need a fancy place just good bbq and they definitely have it! They always greet you with a smile and leave your stomach full. I'm a creature of habit and usually get the large brisket sandwich with slaw but if I'm extra hungry I'll throw in some beef ribs. (If they have them because they sell out fast!) read more

We found this place on request from my cousin who lives in Hawaii to try their food. We decided to order the High Roller combo which includes 2 meats and 2 sides. We chose the brisket and pulled pork with corn and waffle fries for our sides. Didn't have to wait long for our order to be ready. Not many places in Vegas serve brisket. Both the brisket and pulled pork were juicy, flavorful and not too fatty. We opted to get the leaner cut of brisket. The corn was just as tasty and the waffle fries are huge! Ordered 12 piece of ribs to go. The meat was cooked to perfection and fell off the bone. The lady who came around asking us if everything was ok was friendly. She told us that this is a family owned business and how many hours each meat was smoked for. We live in Pahrump but this place is definitely a come back to place. read more

There's a reason I keep coming back, the food, the service and the overall amazing sized portions! I came by a few days ago and it was after 7, my bad timing. So when I went to go see my friend today, I told him we have to go have BBQ. I got the house of meat sandwich with slaw and it was so big, I had to eat it with a fork! It has hot links, pork and brisket. Truly, I should have saved half but oops, I ate it all! We did show up around 640 and they were nice enough to let us stay till 710, while they cleaned up. read more

They came out still hot & very tender & really juicy. I tried all of the sauces on the table & all were good. I came home full & still smelling like BBQ.

Been here many times I've been to Mission & Fox Bbq and hands down Jessie's is the spot for a few reasons that is why I gave them 5 stars. 1 Value & quantity/quality for the price 2 this requires paying attention to consistency I have been here during different times and different days of the week and the bbq is always the same tender not dry like some of the others brisket always juicy and you have a choice lean or fatty. The spareribs I have never experienced any dry day old spareribs and the chicken always tender and thankfully not shredded. 3 Now the sauces multiple flavors for your liking they are all good my favorite is the spicy not overly hot just the right amount of heat and sweet and the Mac & cheese is great 4 always friendly staff highly recommended hats of to the pit master you know your bbq read more

This is real pork joint. If you aren't a meat eater you will feel let out. The food was great service was good. This is a no frills restaurant but the BBQ sauce is to die for. I could have just had that on my tray. I went with someone who doesn't eat meat and only eats white meat so they didn't really enjoy a full meat but I did. My suggestion is to serve wings or breast portions. read more

Food was delicious and plentiful. Everyone so friendly. And so close to our Cadence home; we will go out there often.

The BBQ had really solid smoky flavor and tender meat, just wished the sides were a bit more flavorful overall.

The BBQ and pulled pork are fantastic. I order from here once a week. It's my favorite spot.

Jessie Rae's BBQ on Boulder Highway is hands-down one of the most welcoming spots in Henderson. The staff here treat you like family -- friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making sure you enjoy your meal. It's the kind of service that makes you want to come back before you've even left. The food matches the hospitality: the fatty cut brisket is perfectly tender, juicy, and bursting with smoky flavor, and the spare ribs are cooked to perfection -- flavorful, meaty, and fall-off-the-bone good. The mac and cheese and BBQ beans round out the plate beautifully, rich and hearty without being overdone. If you're looking for incredible BBQ paired with truly top-notch service, Jessie Rae's BBQ in Henderson is the place to go. Every bite -- and every interaction -- feels made with care. read more

Generous portions, reasonable prices and friendly efficient service made this our favorite dining experience in the Vegas area. Thanks to Brandon on IG this was a great find amongst all the many food and on the strip choices. We had enough leftover for dinner and I can recommend everything we tried. My favorite sauce was the Carolina vinegar sauce- there's no ketchup for your delicious tots but the fry sauce was also quite tasty. My guy liked the original sauce best. The chicken was so moist and just awesomely flavorful. The ribs were a perfect tender but not falling apart cook. Highly recommended read more

Feel like I shouldn't recommend this bbq place because it's THAT good. Best bbq in Vegas. We went in around 5:30 and the pork ribs were gone. So sad. But we love their seasonings and sauces so we opted for chicken instead. Also hot links and brisket. I'm in love with the chicken now. Their mashed potatoes are yummmm, everything is well worth the trip if you don't live in Henderson. read more

Came out all the way from the strip for the reviews on this place. Looking for a local place with good food and simple setup, NO GLAM... This place fits the bill. Very simple. Bathrooms are a bit challenged. Food was solid, good flavorful BBQ. Nothing was unusual and all was good. portion sizes were above average. We had lots of leftovers. Staff was nice. Sauces were pretty good. Ribs were tender but could have been a bit more moist. We did enjoy the visit. Handicap access was a bit challenged but we made it work. read more

On 1/06/26, we visited this BBQ spot with our little family, and it was such a great experience. We were greeted and assisted by Honey, who provided excellent customer service from start to finish. She recommended a few menu items for us to try, and they were absolutely delicious. Honey was very attentive and helpful throughout our entire dining experience. It was refreshing because we've been to many restaurants and drive-thrus here in Henderson and Las Vegas--where employees seem unhappy or uninterested. It's nice to see that great customer service still exists. We will definitely be back--not only for the amazing food, but also for the outstanding service. Thank you, Honey! You were awesome! read more

Delicious bbq. Possibly the best traditional bbq I've had in Vegas and a hidden gem with it being a favorite of locals. 3 meats and 1 side. Hot links, brisket, spare ribs, and waffle fries. We added beef ribs to the order because they have them on Thursday and Sunday. All tender, juicy, and cooked just enough to achieve that tenderness. Meats had plenty of flavor and the waffle fries were super crispy. Their classic bbq and their spicy were both great complements to the bbq. Not overpowering and meshed well! The staff was also super accommodating and knowledgeable. Only knock I would say is the seasoning from the fries got onto the beef ribs and made it overly salty. We brushed that off and it was great. read more
