driest pulled pork I've ever seen, and unfortunately tasted.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! All positive reviews are PAID FOR by the owner. No one who's paid for this "food" would mutter anything positive to say about this joint otherwise. The 'meats' are drier than the Mojave desert, absolutely flavorless, under-cooked garbage the what they're calling brisket and pulled pork is literal table shavings of dry dog food. I tossed it all in the trash. Microwaved "baked" potato, microwaved mac&cheese, microwaved meats. I mean seriously? I couldn't give even donate this food to a homeless person because THEY DON'T HAVE THE HEALTH INSURANCE TO DEAL WITH WHATEVER COMES NEXT! Additionally, 2-liter sprite that was ordered was past its sell-by date, very cool! The only smoke these guys are blowing is up their own out-holes.

I'm sorry but this is not it don't do Texas this way this is not Texas bbq at out ribs over cooked taste the dirty smoke on the dried out chicken and the hot links remind me of a slim Jim ...... and I even gave them a try after showing up on Wednesday with a sign on the door saying it was closed till Thursday

3 Meat Combo & 1 Sides

The service was not the best. The guy taking my order couldn't even tell me what was good on the menu, which is a bad sign already. The meat was over cooked, dry and has no seasoning on it. Only 2 stars because it is edible and not burnt, but that's literally the only way this food could be worse. Nothing about this meat tasted like Texas, and they need to take that out of the name. Max n cheese was not good, baked beans were okay. Their bbq sauce was also watery and lacked flavor. I would skip this spot and save your money. I'm mad I spent mine.

4/5 stars potato salad
Cecilia H.

Overall experience with food 2/5 stars and customer service 4/5 stars. Small/cozy restaurant in a shopping center. Lots of parking and seating inside the establishment. The gentleman behind the counter owned the restaurant and he was nice and explain some highlights on the menu such as the ribs and brisket. We went with the #19 which is the 3 meat combo and 1 side. We were a bit disappointed because you couldn't double the meat choice, mac and cheese was not part of the side options, you have to order mac and cheese separate, and for a platter you only get one side. But we ended up getting to additional sides so we could have everything we wanted. 4/5 stars - The brisket was tender good ratio of lean meat and parts of fat. 3/5 stars St. Louis Ribs - they were tender but w/out the bbq sauce they were pretty bland. 3/5 stars rib tips - same as the req ribs tender but w/out the bbq sauce they were bland, and barely any meat on them. 4/5 stars - Regular BBQ sauce - great flavor and seasoning 4/5 stars - Spicy BBQ sauce - great flavor and seasoning and good spice level. 1/5 stars - mac n cheese another bland item and the cheese was clumpy. 1/5 stars - yams there was no texture to it just seemed like mashed potatoes. They was flavor but all you tasted was sweetness from the marshmallow. 4/5 potato salad - had good flavor no major complaints on this one but it was a bit too sweet for potato salad I really wanted to love the place, I didn't want to write this review but again just my opinion.

Cole slaw and beans
Michelle J.

The place doesn't look like much from the outside but don't let fool you. The food was excellent and the gentleman serving us was very friendly. We got the 3 meat Pit Master special that came with beans and we also ordered a side of Cole slaw. The side were much larger than most places as well. They had cute signs everywhere and picnic tables and played fantastic Blues music. We will definitely be back here

Beef Brisket Platter (1lb) - HALF EATEN
Jeannie S.

Wow!!! Who knew this little gem appeared in this small tucked away corner?!?! The decor is ALL AMERICAN The BRISKET melts in your mouth - we had the mild sauce which was DELICIOUS! The POTATO SALAD is just the perfect blend of flavors and creamy goodness The GREEN BEANS are cooked with garlic and broth and an easy way to get in your veggies. The SERVICE was friendly and the owner has a great energy. We CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK! Blessings to this new business

French fries
Krista V.

We came here for lunch after seeing a great review on their brisket on Nextdoor. The restaurant is in a shopping plaza and as soon as we walked in we were greeted with the aroma of BBQ which made our mouths water. The menu is on the wall. We ordered the brisket and the triple meat (brisket, pulled pork, and hot link). These are actually sandwiches. The sides we chose were French fries and greens. The moist brisket was very good, hot link was spicy and pulled pork was chopped. The fries could have been a little crispier for us. The greens were good and garlicky. The spicy BBQ sauce was Amazing! Inside is picnic table seating with two TV's. The restaurant really got busy after we arrived. The staff were nice. I want to come back and try the gumbo and Cajun catfish.

Good local Restaurant decent size menu food is seasoned pretty well I would come here again. A+

Good sized menu. Lots of sides.
Jeremy T.

The price for the amount of food was great. Another highlight was the friendly service. I asked for the spicy sauce for my meat, I wish it was a little more spicy and tangy, but other than that, I was satisfied.

I ordered bbq rib tips to go. I ordered for 2 people so I ordered us each a lb. A lb is a lot so me and my husband could have shared the rib tips and still would have had some left over. The sides were unremarkable--I ordered red beans and rice, baked beans and hush puppies. The two biggest things for me is that bbq should be well seasoned so that you don't have to use bbq sauce on it. The ribs were tender but bland. This goes for the sides as well. The flavor was lacking for me. I would try them again though as maybe u got a batch of rib tips that just weren't well seasoned.

I've been to Vegas countless times and had never even heard of this place. What started as a quick restroom stop at Terrible's turned into an incredible midday meal at Mama Bird. The restaurant was spotless and had such a robust menu that deciding what to order was actually the hardest part. I went with the blackened catfish and watermelon slices, while my girl chose the pulled pork sandwich. We also shared the smoked wings as an appetizer. Our server, Troy, made some excellent recommendations, and everything exceeded our expectations. The portions were generous, and every bite was packed with flavor. We'll definitely be back. Thank you, Mama Bird, and thank you, Troy. We truly enjoyed the food, the service, and the overall experience. Until next time... from Cali with love.

The sides were also better than expected. The potato salad was especially good, and the mashed potatoes had a lot of flavor and paired well with the meats. My only disappointment was the smoke profile. I was hoping for a stronger smoke presence across the meats, and they definitely benefited from the sauces. Thankfully, the sauces were excellent, especially the mustard-based sauce, which added a great tangy kick and complemented the BBQ perfectly. Overall, I enjoyed the meal. The quality was there, the flavors were good, and it's a strong BBQ option in a city where great barbecue can be hard to find.

Our waitress was super friendly and upbeat but she immediately let us know that there was only one order of fried chicken left if we wanted to order it. We were not ordering fried chicken so it wasn't an issue but I thought it was odd that this is an item they would run out of on a Sunday. I ordered the chicken fried steak which came with mashed potatoes and greens. My husband ordered the catfish dinner which came with hush puppies, grits and greens. The food arrived pretty quick and was hot. My chicken fried steak was just ok. The mashed potatoes were good and the greens were the worst I've had. It was like a pound of sugar in them. Caught me off guard. It was so sweet that it was inedible. My husband's fried catfish was prepared perfectly! (We asked for it to be fried hard) It was hot, fresh and well seasoned! The hush puppies were a bit dry and taste like they roll it in the same fish fry as the catfish as it had a slight fishy taste but the grits were amazing! It had a white gravy/sauce on top of it and it was just soo good! I had wished I ordered his plate even tho we swapped a few forkfuls. One thing I noticed was the menu had changed. Based on other yelp posts, there were items that I had in mind I wanted to try when I got there like the egg rolls. The menu is vastly downsized from when they first opened which was a bummer. Usually when a restaurant downsizes their menu by that much, it's usually a sign it won't be open much longer. So go while you can if it's a place you've been wanting to try. We paid almost $80 for 2 dinners (not including tip). We did not get drinks since we had been drinking earlier. The price wasn't too bad for a sit down restaurant inside a Vegas casino.

Service was solid too, everybody attentive without doing too much. Drinks: I got the drink flight and I gotta keep it real... this was my only real complaint. Out of the four drinks, only ONE was good. I don't remember all the names, but the golden one with Jack Honey was cool. The other three? Easy passes. For $42, that ain't it. 3/10 Appetizers: Now let's talk food. The biscuits are CRAZY. Soft, buttery, fresh, and that pepper jam takes it to another level. They even put the jam in the hush puppies which is a power move. 10/10 The crab cakes were fire too. All flavor, real crab meat, no filler nonsense. Definitely something I'd order again. 9/10 Main Plate: I ordered the fried fish with Brussels sprouts and mac & cheese. The fish was top tier. Fried perfect, seasoned right, crispy but not greasy. 8/10 The Brussels were mixed with sweet potatoes, good balance, good flavor, just nothing that made me lose my mind. 7/10 The mac & cheese wasn't for me. Thick cheese sauce but no real flavor behind it. Just kinda there. 4/10 Overall: All in all, it was a good experience. Great service, good food, and a solid atmosphere. Even with a couple misses, I'd still come back and try more off the menu. Nellie's definitely worth checking out.

The service was impeccable!! We came around 1030am, and it wasn't busy, but it was full. We waited a couple mins for a table for 4, which maybe took 10 mins max. We were offered bottled water while we waited, (Vegas was 108 degrees). The waitresses were very sweet. Very knowledgeable as well. Their recommendations were on point cus the food was truly amazing! If you go, it's not called gritz cafe for no reason! Get the grits! I added crushed sausage and cheese to mine and man oh man!! That took it from a 10 to a 20! So good! I ordered the chicken and waffles and it came with a side of gritz. The chicken was perfectly fried. Crispy on the outside. Juicy and flavorful on the inside. Once the hot sauce was added it was even better! The waffle itself was also amazing. Now i love me a Waffle House and i swear by their waffles, but these got them beat by 100000! I ordered a plain waffle, my brother got the yams waffle. (Yams in the batter.) OMG!! That was beyond delicious! My sister got the peach cobbler waffle which might've slightly been a bit better than the sweet potato, and i got the regular waffle which was still a good 10/10! They serve it with hot syrup. (Careful cuz it comes in a metal container that's also hot). They melted butter into the waffle before it comes to your table. It was everything!! I definitely would've came back if i didn't have other reservations. The ambiance was super cute. They don't sell alcohol, so we ordered lemonades and sweet teas. They had a nice pandora playlist playing in the background and by the time we left, there was a line out the door. They close at 2pm so get there early if you can to beat the rush, but this is a highly recommended 10/10!! If and when i come back to Vegas I'm coming back. Maybe 2x lol. See pics below
