I ordered the **BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger**, and while the presentation wasn't the most impressive, it does come with an onion ring, which is a nice touch. It's not my favorite burger on the menu, but it's still very good. I'd give it an **8/10**. The **Monster Burger** is where it's at, though! This is easily a **9/10** and one of those burgers you really can't go wrong with. The portion size, quality, and price are all excellent, and I especially love that it comes with two different types of cheese. Definitely one of the best options here. We also ordered the **Southwestern Salad**, which was really good. I would recommend asking for extra dressing because it could definitely use a little more. Overall, I'd give the salad an **8/10**. The **fries are always a 10/10**. The side portion is huge and easily enough to share, which makes it an even better value. The drinks are good as well. The **service is always top-notch**. They treat you like family, and the food comes out quickly. I also like that the restaurant has both a traditional service side, where tipping is optional, and a self-service side where you find your own table and pick up your food, so tipping isn't necessary. The **ambiance is one of the best things about this place**. If you're a sports fan, you'll love it. There's tons of sports memorabilia throughout the restaurant and plenty of TVs showing different games. It's a great place to hang out, grab some food, and watch sports. Being right across the street from Fresno State is also a huge plus. The only real downside is the **parking**. They definitely need to find a way to increase the amount of parking because it can be difficult to find a spot. Overall, this is a great place with **good food, generous portions, reasonable prices, excellent service, and an unbeatable sports atmosphere**. Definitely worth checking out!

Stayed in Fresno for a couple of days for work. After an hour of cooling of in the hotel (it was…read more103 degrees) my coworker and I met up with a team mate who suggested Dog House Grill. He lives in Fresno and knows where all the good spot to eat were. DHG is my kind of bar & grill. It's lively, with good food, lots of beer options, big screen TVs playing sport and filled with locals. I went with the ABC burger, which was fantastic. My team mate mentioned that was his go-to burger. As a matter of fact all three of us ordered the same burger. We also ordered french fries, onion rings and yeah, multiple pints of beer. Everything was great and I see why it is so popular. We all agreed this would be the location for our next team meeting. And now for the pics.

After waiting to get in it took 40 minutes to get our food if not longer. We got a few things 1. Fried chicken - it was good, crispy and juicy 2. Ribs - we hated these they were drenched in sauce. I would prefer sauces on the side. It ruined them and they were on the tough side. 3. Rice and gravy - enjoyed this 4. Spaghetti - it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. Had a strange aftertaste 5. Spicy cabbage - it was not spicy it was sweet and gooey and it was not good 6. Cornbread - a bit burnt for our liking 7. Lemon pudding cake - this was decent but also overly sweet. By the time we left the staff warmed up to having people there. They also charged 2 dollars for water which I thought was not okay. Water should be free at any restaurant. We paid 6 dollars for koolaid as well which is very high but it was good. Our entire bill was 46 and I feel like for what we got it wasn't a good deal. The restrooms were disgusting. I am not sure if I would be back. I was really looking forward to this place but I'll stick with chef Paul's.

I am embarrassed that it has taken me so long to make it down to this spot. What in the heck was I…read morethinking? I missed out on all this amazing food! Before I say anything about the food, the atmosphere was amazing. We were greeted even before hitting the door by the owner and the team at the smoker. This is a family business, and we definitely got the feeling that we were welcome. The food blew me away. I've been lucky enough to taste brisket at some of the best BBQ joints in Texas, and Mega is on par with any of them. The trip tip was tender and full of flavor, and the hot links nice and smoky. We were also able to try a house made jalapeno and Jack sausage that will blow your mind. Did I mention the sides? Brisket chili beans, Mac and cheese, and potato salad. Every single side dish was on point. I don't like my potato salad with a bunch of other stuff mixed in, and this one didn't miss. Hold up. Ever hear about Alabama sauce? Why hasn't anyone ever told me about. Alabama sauce? This concoction was delicious. A bbq sauce that's mayo based? Sign me up! You need to try it. Only thing better would've been a cold beer to wash it all down, bu then again, I probably wouldn't have left. Thanks again for the hospitality. We will definitely be back for the other half of the menu!

Visiting from out of town…read more I rarely buy bbq because as a Pitmaster the best bbq for me comes from my backyard. Well, you made me feel like I was in my backyard today. This is real deal bbq. Brisket was fantastic and the flat was almost as soft as the point (google brisket flat and point if you don't know). Ribs were a perfect bite off. Tri tip was cooked was cooked to my satisfaction and the flavor was great. I ate all my Cole slaw (trust me that means something) and the beans were fire!! Everything was pleasantly smoky. I looked for something to complain about, but I got nothin. I'll be back next trip Smoke on!

As a vegetarian, coming to a BBQ place is always an adventure, but this place did not disappoint! I enjoyed a Wedge Salad minus the bacon, with dressings on the side. It was crisp, fresh, and quite ample in size. A wedge is typically cut in fourth or thirds, but this was like the entire bottom half of a head of lettuce. Good times, with leftovers to take home. The croutons were scrumptious, and I loved the slivered radishes too. So, follow me here- ya gotta have bread, right? I took down an entire order of Texas Toast, all by my lonesome! It was that good! Did I want to offer it to others, sure...but did I, nope! I highly recommend it! Such great textures overall! To top it all off, we shared a strawberry pizza. It was absolutely delicious- size was superb- definitely shareable. My takeaway, the usual BBQ Meals are of course faves for many- but for me, my choices were perfect, there is surely something for everyone. Well done.

My wife and I were served like we were royalty by a very nice young man who runs the barbecue area. Sorry I can't remember his name. I didn't write it down. He's not a master pit master yet, but he's trying hard. He has a full line of smoked meat - brisket, tri-tip, pork, ribs, chicken and hot links. All meats are smoked on site except for the hot links, which are a standard grocery store item. If you need a barbecue joint in this area of town, try them out. Look hard. The address is correct but hard to find tucked into a gas station.

During our visit they were out of a lot of items and only had tri-tip, boneless ribs, and pulled pork. I was bummed because I love burnt ends. I went with the boneless ribs, baked beans, and coleslaw. The boneless ribs were delicious! Super tender, juicy, and slathered in a tangy BBQ sauce. My son loved the ribs as well. I tried my wife's tri-tip and it was just ok. The sides were also really good, with my favorites being the coleslaw, beans, and mac n cheese. For me, coleslaw is a staple for any good BBQ spot and Chuck's is spot on. Plus their mac n cheese is super creamy and fave for the whole table. I'd suggest calling in your order, in the morning to make sure that you'll get access to their full meaty menu.

I had the pulled pork sandwich with a side of yummy coleslaw. The sandwich came with several single serving size containers of bbq sauce. The pulled pork was very tender, moist and smoked deliciously. Soft hoagie roll. The bbq sauce was very flavorful and not spicy which is how I like it. I loved the coleslaw because it wasn't too mayonnaisey, more of a subtle vinegar flavor. My son ordered the brisket with collard greens which he says, you can't truly be a bbq restaurant without collard greens. He loved them and the brisket was tender and lean. His husband ordered a tri tip sandwich with the Mac n cheese along with a made to order Blackberry Lemonade. They both loved their meals. We all agreed we'd return for another meal. Tge desserts looks delicious! Bread pudding, peach cobbler and a couple other choices. Like I said, another day to indulge in dessert. It is outdoor seating only on picnic tables. You could see the owner and his assistant working hard to prepare the meals. They had a steady stream of guests. Good location with parking very close by.

Lemon pepper is one of my go to for wing sauces/seasoning and you could really taste the lemon pepper, some places are shy on the seasoning. The atomic had great flavor but was lacking in the spiciness, I think it could use a little more heat. The wings were cooked perfectly and very flavorful. I would like to come back to try their other sauces. Looking forward to try their garlic Parmesan. I'd like to also mention that I love the fact that they take tap pay, usually small mom and pop shops don't take tap to pay, so that is a plus.

Wings come in bone-in or boneless options, along with tenders and nuggets. The other dinner option is their burger and a vast array of finger foods; potato skins, breaded zucchini, mushrooms, onion rings, egg rolls (spring rolls) pork or veggie, fries and steamed rice. It's family owned which is a big plus because service is always friendly and consistent. It's a mostly small place with a few tables for dine in but it seems to mostly get take out orders.
