    Ribs, baked beans, fries
    Mark M.

    Was looking for a quick bite after walking down freemont and came across Project BBQ. Seating is outside along with ordering. Friendly service who gives you a number to put by your table after you order. Ended up trying the ribs with fries and baked beans. You can def feel the vibes of freemont street while you have a drink and wait. The ribs were very tender and full of flavor. The bbq sauce was nice and tangy along with the baked beans. The fries were crispy too.

    I tried this place because I can use my Dining credits from Circa. I've tried it twice so far and it's OK. It's a lot better than the food inside Circa IMO (aside from the pool menu) . The beans and potato salad needed more flavor and the steak was too chewy . The girls who took my Order were really sweet and had a lot of patience. I wish they actually had a place to sit down versus just standing the whole time .

    This place is part of the Circa hotel but it's outside on Fremont street right next to a stage, come here to eat and not talk bc you won't be able to hear your conversation. Since it is outside seating you are still able to smell cigarette smoke if you love smoke. The cucumber refresher drink was good, not too sweet. The service is like any fast food restaurant service. We ordered the sampler platter which came with a little of everything, I liked the coleslaw and the pickled onions and since I'm not a fan of Smokey bbq I didn't like any of the meats, but my husband did, I'm a picky eater.

    I ordered ribs. Was pleasantly surprised! The fries were delicious. Not a fan of the beans but the rest of my party liked theirs. Service was friendly and fast. Standing to eat at tables or long table looking out onto Fremont street. Busy location.

    As you walk about Fremont Street, there are a lot of food options. "Project BBQ" is one of them. At the risk of sounding like a food snob, the food isn't bad; it's just not the greatest BBQ. Understand that most of the cooking and food prep takes place somewhere else. These elements are brought to this faux food truck to assemble orders. It's not inexpensive either. On this occasion, I ordered the "pulled pork tacos" ($18.00) and a bottle of Coca-Cola ($5.00). With tax ($1.93), my ticket was $24.93 for three tacos. The taste of the tacos was "okay". There was a generous serving of pork in each taco, and they were assembled well. One in my party ordered the pulled pork sandwich. It came with chips. They were fine with their order. Interestingly, another in our group has issues with gluten and this eatery had something that was gluten free. In short summation, you're paying for convenience.

    They serve up a good brisket sandwich here. The fries were also good. The macaroni and cheese was extremely weird. It was so saucy. It was more like macaroni and cheese soup. I wish the baked beans were a little bit more flavorful. I do think this is a decent place to go for lunch on Fremont Street. We got our meal fairly quickly and it wasn't very expensive, but it was kind of a higher price point than what I would expect for the quality.

    Came here during busy peak hours on a Saturday night and the manager Daniel was incredibly fast , attentive, and friendly. Now the food....sooo freaking bomb. Meat was tender & delicious. The veggies were really good especially the tomatoes. The place is right at the start of Fremont on the west side and feet away from the stage so the vibes were super good. Eat & get a show at the same time. Would def come back and recommend

    Surprising even myself, I ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. It was different, but delicious. Huge chicken breast, but rather than a spicy dry rub, it was smothered in a hot BBQ sauce. And I mean smothered! Along with the slaw and pickles, it was great. Service took a bit longer than I expected, but they must make everything to order. No harm, no foul. May come back to try the brisket and pulled pork.

    While wandering around the Fremont Street Experience, we came upon the Project BBQ, and it looked like they would have good tasting food there.The outside looked very bright and colorful and welcoming. It's a food truck! We had to stop and order! After looking at the menu, we decided to order the Pulled Pork sandwich with Elote. We split the sandwich to save on calories and money. Vegas is expensive, as others told us before we arrived here. Our sandwich was good - loved the BBQ flavor! Service was fast, and the cashier was friendly. The reason that I didn't give 5 stars is because they have stand-up tables, meaning you have to stand while you eat. My knees were not happy about that. Otherwise, everything else was fine.

    We always enjoy the bbq here. We had the steak sandwich and brisket sandwich. Both were tasty and not too fatty. The service was a little hum drum as the staff mostly frowned and was short when ordering. Maybe they were just tired. Still looking forward to our next visit.

    The Mac n' Cheese is rich & delicious
    Mike M.

    A great food truck experience at the top of the Fremont Street Experience right across the street from the Union Plaza..in front of the Circa Hotel . I enjoyed the TRUFFLE AND CRISPY BACON MAC N' CHEESE. Delicious and lightly creamy with crispy panko.. Yum! The service is quick, despite the long line. We ate an early meal around 4pm. You order up the meal and drink in a line of hungry patrons, and then enjoy your delicious grub outdoors in a patio setting right on the Fremont Street . A DJ was spinning upbeat dance/mash music which encouraged lots of dancing and grooving to the beats. I saw lots of people really enjoying their delicious bbq and sandwiches. Try the food.. I will return to this food truck!

    Can a person do takeout?

    Yes its a perm. Location food truck nice little court yard, but its all takeout

    Can I charge this to our room at Circa?

    I don't believe so, they're not affiliated with the hotel. Privately owned business. Their food is the BOMB though!!

    Where would I park?

    You can park at Garage Mahal (my favorite) at Circa for the easiest access. However, this permanently built food truck sits on the Fremont Street Experience so any parking at the Fremont Street casinos would work.

    Hands down the best BBQ in Vegas. I crave this place often!!!…read more I esp love the burnt ends. The pork ribs and sausage are my next favorite. Brisket is delicious too. You seriously cannot go wrong. I've yet to try the shrimp or turkey or chicken. The sides are all delicious too. My favs are the coleslaw. It has a mild honey mustard flavor which I love. The eggplant is insane. It has an Asian flavor which is my favorite. Corn muffins are fire and the pickles are delicious and available to buy by the jar which I have multiple times. They have some daily specious too like the burger which is fire. The musabi is soooo good. I wish they had it everyday. The pastrami sandwich is so good too. Is thick cut like brisket and doesn't taste like regular pastrami but still so good. I love this place

    I keep coming back, which says something in itself…read more Every Thursday they feature burgers, and they always have their signature Dandan: two 100% brisket patties quick-fried in tallow, topped with cheddar cheese and Dandan sauce on a butter-griddled brioche bun. This week they also offered two specials -- the Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions) and the Jalapeño Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions and jalapeños). The Dandan has been on my list for a while, so I finally pulled the trigger. I called around 11:30 a.m. and was promptly helped by a friendly employee. After a quick chat about which of the three was best, I went with the Jalapeño Oklahoma and a side of Brussels sprouts. I've had the sprouts before and really liked them -- they felt like a slightly healthier alternative to the usual fried sides. (Though when I arrived to pick up my order, it seemed like everyone else was happily devouring onion rings, which made me second-guess that choice.) As expected, there was a line stretching out the door. I quickly realized I was the only one actually waiting outside. Several people walked straight in, bypassed the line, and got helped right away. Turns out a group of 3-4 people had already ordered and were just hanging out inside in the AC while they waited. Lesson learned: if you've already placed your order, just walk in next time. While I waited, the staff brought out an ice-cold cup of their fresh cantaloupe juice. It's very sweet and genuinely delicious -- highly recommend. I took everything to go and ate at home, so I can't speak to temperature. The burger was big and loaded with meat and cheese -- you couldn't really see the jalapeños or onions at first, but they announced themselves with the first bite. The brisket patties cooked in tallow deliver a deep, rich beef flavor. They're a little firmer than a standard burger (as expected with brisket), so if you're someone who likes a lot of vegetables and toppings, this might not be your ideal burger. But if you're after a straight-up, beef-forward, no-frills experience, you won't be disappointed. The Brussels sprouts were excellent as always -- perfectly balanced with a sweet-tangy balsamic glaze. Let's be honest... I'll definitely be back. Next time I'm trying the classic Dandan -- and those onion rings.

The pork ribs are wonderfully juicy and packed with deep flavor, pairing nicely with the complimentary sweet BBQ sauce even though they do not strictly need it. Unlike most places where the pulled pork dries out, this one stays remarkably moist and savory throughout. Chili (4/5): A very unique side that is much thinner and more watery than a traditional chili, holding a texture closer to a thin spaghetti sauce. Despite the looser consistency, it is absolutely packed with a variety of delicious smoked meats in every single bite. Mac and Cheese (5/5): An exceptional side dish and a clear favorite of the meal. It's incredibly rich, creamy, and distinctively flavored with sharp cheddar, which gives it a much bolder and more satisfying punch than standard restaurant mac and cheese. Corn Bread (5/5): This side functions almost like a dessert, boasting an incredibly sweet, vanilla cake like taste. The high level of sweetness provides a nice contrast to the intense salt, smoke, and savory flavors of the massive meat plate. Logistics Tip: Parking is limited but manageable between the two adjacent lots, and there is a clean restroom on site. To help beat the intense heat, they generously provide complimentary bottles of ice cold water. Keep in mind that they hosted live music on the late Saturday morning that we went. While it adds a fun, energetic backyard vibe, it can get incredibly loud and makes chatting with friends difficult, so you may want to bring ear protection or plan your arrival time accordingly.

The sausage was a jalapeño cheddar sausage. For my side, I had mac & cheese and coleslaw. To start off, this is a great place. If I could give it 4 1/2 stars I would but I like to round up. Brisket is really good but a little dry in the mouth. Great Smoky flavor. The mouth-feel was just a little off. It was a little dry, but not bad. The pulled pork was wonderful. Nice Smoky flavor. Nice and tender and juicy. Felt great to chew in my mouth and did not feel dry. A+ for the Pork. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was amazing. Really well done. Flavor was great texture was great. Just a little kick, which was great. I always wish there was more kick, but I understand you got a cater to your customers. One thing I was kind of concerned about was the temperature of the coleslaw. It should be really cold, but it was just kind of a little bit of above lukewarm, but not really cold. Coleslaw should be cold. The mac & cheese was pretty good. Needs a little bit more liquid in it but the flavor was awesome. And it looks like they prepackage the Mac 'n cheese in containers and then sprinkle some cheese on top. That's a nice touch, but it makes the whole container of mac & cheese dry out. They only have one barbecue sauce. It was pretty good. But to me the best way to judge barbecue is if it doesn't eat barbecue sauce. And this did not need barbecue sauce. It was just a nice addition. Great ambience. Great music playing. Very clean and well kept area. I would definitely come back when I'm on this side of town.
