WSOP Day 19- Crazy fun, early morning PLO antics with random Euros while pretending to be Canadian eh. "Get yo a$$ to the condo now. Wild Fig!" reads the text. BBQ time! Midwest poker bud who hates the heat, braved 100° plus temps to pick it up for us three times since the WSOP began. All the usual BBQ staples and being Summerlin, they have BBQ one offs like brisket melt sandwich, burgers and even a brisket musubi. Carnivores, stay focused: 1. beef dino ribs. Well seasoned with a simple rub. Nice bark and a worthy smoke ring. Juicy, tender, clean smoke flavor. Very close to the famed spots in Austin. 2. Duroc pork belly (IG Sunday special). Dense, meaty, beautifully rendered fat, juicy and tasty AF! Think the Texas BBQ answer to Filipino lechon. 3. Japanese A5 wagyu brisket (IG special). Usually when BBQ places start out they use expensive wagyu loaded with evenly distributed intramuscular fat to keep the finished brisket wiggly, jiggly, and juicy before perfecting their craft and moving to less expensive breeds. Take advantage now. Simply seasoned. Beautiful dark bark. Clean smoke kicks up the sweetness of the wagyu. Fat is well rendered but the brisket is still extremely rich. One pound for four with sides is perfect. Instead of slices of Wonder bread, go all in for the cane butter corn muffins. Grab a couple dozen. They are addictive and taste great reheated the next day. Don't sleep on the tangy, zesty cole slaw, creamy, hearty potato salad kicked up by ranch dressing and very meaty, smoky, baked beans. Sauces? They got them but as a purist, who needs them? Very reasonable pricing for BBQ. Online ordering a plus. Gonna redo the rounds for Vegas BBQ but this is gonna be hard to best. read more

They do a great job there and we love them for the first time but if you don't like spice pork not the way to go

I just had surgery and sent my boyfriend to order us food. He came back with hot chocolate and loads of food. The hot chocolate was different it tasted as if there was star anise in it. Very good change from traditional hot chocolate. We got a bit of everything and im in love. Ive never had turkey that juicy in my life. Every meat item we got was mind blowing. The corn bread was out of this world. Mexican corn was amazing. The bean and Mac n cheese mix was top notch. And the Brussel sprout are a game changer. Literally everything was jaw dropping. We will be back read more

Went there with my family on Thursday. The man who was running the kitchen and running food out was rude to the staff and patrons. At one point I came back in to get to-go containers and was waiting patiently, and he was running food outside so I moved out of his way, held the door open. He didn't even acknowledge me, say thank you and gave me the rudest look. I was not impressed at all. That alone has me uninterested in ever going back. The meat was tender. The pastrami was good. I grew up eating KC BBQ and and lived in TX for several years and had plenty of TX BBQ- this to me is decent BBQ but if you know and like phenomenal BBQ this isn't going to compete with that. Read so many great reviews so I had really high expectations. Again, kudos to the pit master. The tenderness of the brisket, pastrami and beef rib was the saving grace. The woman who worked the counter taking orders was also one of the only reasons this isn't a 1 star review for me. She was a bit of sunshine in that place. read more

As a person that doesn't really like bbq food and has never been to this place in person (boss always orders us food and picks it up lol). This place is absolutely delicious! Everything is get is always on point! My favorite are the pickles! Definitely will come by to try the pork belly! read more

Wild Fig BBQ - Lunch brisket with mac $ cheese/ flaming hot cheeto on top with a honey mussy sauce and their infamous wild fig pickles! - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Wild Fig is a tiny takeout kitchen located off the beaten path in Summerlin, offering an impressive assortment of barbecue and home made sides. Pastrami sandwich - assembled from scratch, tasting near-perfect. Wild Fig doesn't buy pastrami, choosing instead to brine, cure, and smoke their own shanks of beef. Peppery, thick slices on rye with kitchen-made pickles and honey mustard make this a winner. McFig Rib - authentic and tender spare rib pieces, spicy bbq sauce, red onion and pickles on either a sandwich or slider sized. Yes authentic, compared to the gawd-awful McRib sandwich with its 70 ingredients (including heart and tripe). McRib is to ribs as Krab meat is to crab in a sushi roll. And the Golden Arch's nasty version adds the same bleaching agent (azodicarbonamide) in their sandwich as the one used in producing yoga mats...their rubbery sandwich is similar to a chew toy you might buy at Petco. No thanks, try Wild Fig's real version instead. Brisket - it's easy to screw this up, being a tougher cut of meat from the cow's chest (pectoral). But when slow-cooked properly over low heat and wood smoke, the connective tissues break down and tenderize. Wild Fig's version is excellent and the way brisket is supposed to taste. Comes with thick bbq sauce or try their tangy white garlic sauce for a change of pace. Dan Dan burger - two ground brisket patties with cheddar on a buttery brioche, cooked in tallow. (tallow is the beef version of lard from pork). This is a decadent two patty burger made 'Oklahoma style' with onions mixed in...a bit greasy, but very tasty. The spicy Dan Dan sauce makes ketchup needless. Potato salad - one of the best you'll find at a takeout place and also made from scratch. Added bonus: Wild Fig is smart enough to separate your cold potato salad from the hot entree in a metallic to-go tray so that it stays cold when you order the snack plate...otherwise bacteria can quickly form when mayo-based foods warm up. Mac & cheese - home made, thick, creamy, cheesy and topped with crushed red flaming Cheetos. When entering to place an order you're basically in Wild Fig's kitchen, separated from the whirlwind of activity by only a counter while a half dozen people cook and prepare your food in full view. Look online for daily specials and you can also buy their smoked meats by the pound (brisket, ribs, pulled pork, smoked turkey, tri-tip, homemade sausage, and pastrami) as well as hire them for catering needs. Wild Fig is a great stop to make on your way home from work, when you lack the time and energy to cook something even remotely edible for dinner. read more

Just moved over to Summerlin and bumped into this Gem of a barbecue joint! Robert was man in the pits. and was so gracious with his recommendations. Proper eats! I'll be coming back to try all the things. read more

Oh man! This was some good BBQ! It's a very busy spot and the seating is all outside so get there early! Luckily we were able to get an eat and it wasn't too hot today. We walked in and it is a small area to order but they get it done. The gentleman in front was patient and friendly as we decided what to get. We ordered the Dandan burger with onions and jalapeños. Also the two meat combo with two sides. Went with brisket and ribs Mac and cheese and meaty beans. Also got two sauces which were habanero bbq and sweet bbq. The meats did not need any sauces!! Great smoky flavor and so tender. The Mac had hot Cheeto crumbles which made a good mix and beans did not disappoint. That burger was amazing! Soft bun and the meat was juicy and cheesy. They also provided complimentary cantaloupe juice and waters. Where has this place been all my life? read more

A great place with wonderful food This restaurant is truly a hole in the wall located at 9555 Del Webb Blvd in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas, NV. It is definitely a bit off the main Strip (about 20-25 minutes drive depending on traffic from central Vegas hotels). It was little hard to find. We drove by it at first and had to circle back to find it. Parking is limited with tight spaces in the small lot. It's a small place with seating outside only (a few picnic tables or similar), and not a whole lot of room for customers inside the restaurant. There's just enough space at the counter for about 3 people to order at once. You order at the counter, pay there, and they bring it out when it's ready. The people were very nice, from the young lady that took our order to the various folks that walked by our table and asked how our food was. Definitely, friendly service all around. The food was delicious and had large portions. The sandwiches were big enough for 2 meals easily, with tender, flavorful meat with a great flavor. My pulled pork sandwich was excellent. The fries were the way I like them, dry and sort of like steak fries. My partner liked the collard greens a lot. A meal with one meat and one side was around $18. My pulled pork sandwich was $16 and the fries $5. For the amount and quality of food, it was definitely worth it. The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious, perfect for a no-frills BBQ stop away from the Strip crowds. Overall, a great place for authentic, satisfying barbecue.I would recommend it to fellow travelers looking for real-deal food off the beaten path, just plan for the location and limited seating. Enjoy! read more

thank goodness i don't live in Vegas, or else I will get fat here! Covered parking. outside seating only. just enough space inside for a few people to order. everything we ordered was incredibly flavorful. pork ribs falls right off with each bite without disintegrating. juicy brisket, sweet corn bread, even the brussels sprouts were great. per the filipino cowboy chef's suggestion, i ate the leftover corn salad with tortilla chips.. fire! yes, go here!! read more

I've stopped by Wild Fig BBQ a couple times and the reason I stopped by last saturday (outside of the usual awesome meats) is the brisket musubi. Specially the A5 Wagyu brisket musubi. Something that you can currently only order here on Saturday. The way you bite in and the fat just melts coating over the grains of white rice. I was given a sauce for the musubi but I had scarfed it down before I knew it. Sitting right now at a gas station I'm contemplating going back to get another for the rest of today's drive. . . Will i? Maybe. Oh and I didn't know they had dessert. I've been blinded all these years by the pastrami and the orange chipotle sauce. lol. The chess pie was such a wonderful custardy vanillay creamy experience. I actually accidentally punctured the paper container I got because I went in for a second bite too hard. There are a couple barbecue trucks I haven't been to and one that is currently in hiatus but of all the spots in Vegas, Wild Fig at the moment is my most favorite. It's a little further from the strip in Summerlin and the turn into the shopping center makes you think you accidentally put someone's house address in the GPS. lol. At this point I'm used to it. read more

Outstanding barbecue! I've had their catering multiple times and it's always a hit at our office!

This is the monster authentic Texas BBQ we've had in Vegas so far. Wild Fig is tucked away from the main roads. It's a small building big enough to order in, and all seating is outside. Everything was tasty, but also had a simple twist to make it unique. The brisket and turkey were both perfect smoked and juicy. The Mac and cheese was great, and sprinkled with hot Cheeto dust. Different days of the week have special menu items, we went during their brisket burger day. Unfortunately, we wouldn't order it again. It didn't have much flavor and had WAY too many onions, making it difficult to eat. We were also disappointed with the Mexican corn salad, but that's on my own expectations. I thought it was going to be elote, but it's just a Cold corn and bean salad. We would definitely eat here again! read more

Wild Fig Barbecue absolutely blew me away. This was one of those meals where you're halfway through and already planning your next visit. The meat was perfect--so well-cooked and flavorful that it honestly didn't need sauce... but the sauce was so good you had to use it anyway. Every bite was dialed in. The sides were just as impressive--clearly not an afterthought and every one we tried was outstanding. The staff made the experience even better. Super friendly, welcoming, and genuinely proud of what they're doing. The place was spotless and well-run--every box you'd want checked was checked. Brent even took the time to show me their massive Texas smoker, which was awesome to see and just reinforced how serious they are about their craft. Great atmosphere, great people, unreal food. I will absolutely go out of my way to eat here again the next time I'm in Las Vegas. Hands down one of the best barbecue experiences I've had anywhere in the country. Highly recommend. read more

Wild fig has gone downhill when they first opened up for the first year one of the best barbecue spots in town however, the last time I got it, it was cold and dry today seven months later cause I was so angry the last time today the brisket sandwich was chewy and only slightly warm plus too expensive not worth the money! read more

We were craving some BBQ and decided to try Wild Fig BBQ. We called earlier in the day to ensure none of the meats sold out and picked up the food later in the day. I ordered the 1 meat, 1 side plate for $18 with burnt ends and Mac n cheese. The plate also came with cornbread, pickles, and sauce. I initially thought $18 was expensive, but the food was delicious and you get a good amount. The burnt ends were rich and juicy and the Mac and cheese was creamy and topped with hot Cheetos! The cornbread wasn't my favorite, as it was a bit dense. Overall, amazing BBQ in NW Vegas! Will definitely be back read more

The service was nice. It was the actual taste for me, the bbq sauce was not like a conventional sauce. It tasted like hot peppers that fought against traditional seasoning. read more

The food is really great here, definitely top two bbq spots in Vegas. The inside area is just really the counter to order your food and basically the kitchen. They will bring the food out to with seating completely outside. Portions are of good size, we ordered a 3 item combo ( brisket, burnt ends, and pork ribs) we also ordered an extra jalapeño cheddar sausage. The sides were elote salad and green chili.We could not finish all the food and was able to eat off the leftovers twice. EVERYTHING was off good quality and tasted great, even the buttermilk chess pie was good. Definitely will be back again. read more

Barely edible food. Brisket and ribs were flavorless and dry. Ribs were also tough and difficult to eat. Outdoor seating only, which is horrible in the summer. The free cantelope juice was good though. Corn bread too. read more

Wild Fig is awesome. No inside dining. Take out only, but the food is most excellent and plentiful. There is a small table/bench outside if you prefer. We have had sandwiches (pork/roast beef) and a variety of other dishes and they are delicious. read more

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon around 345. We were immediately alerted by staff that they were out of pulled pork and burnt ends which was a let down. But staff was very friendly and helpful, to include offering a small beverage. Pricing for the food was a little high, but feel it was in line with other bbq joints ($160 for 3 lb package with tip). The only thing to do inside was order at the counter and then go outside to wait for it. There are about 4 tables right out the door and then another few around the corner. Food itself was really good, especially the turkey which was tender and delicious. The bbq sauces were a little bit of a let down but we only tried the sweet, habanero sauce, and honey mustard. Bbq places are far and few between in the northwest area, so this is a good option! read more

I have been wanting to visit Wild Fig since I tried their food at a catered party. On this day around midafternoon the business was doing a brisk business. All hands in the kitchen were working at full speed. There were 2 people ahead of me in line. Orders are placed at the counter and only outdoor seating is available. I ordered mine for take home. Mine was the snack plate of brisket with a side of Mexican Corn Salad and BBQ sauce. Service was quick as I waited in the small area in the store. If you ordered to eat there they will deliver to your table. The brisket was very tender. However mine had several pieces of fat and I prefer fully lean meat. The sweet BBQ sauce was had a nice tangy flavor. The salad was an excellent mix of vegetables. I will be back as they have many more BBQ items and sides to enjoy. For a little restaurant they have an enormous menu. read more

This food is delicious!!! The staff are friendly and helpful. Definitely a great place for brisket and turkey!

I am a Vegas native and was kind of jaded about BBQ restaurants in town, all of the chain options let me down too many times. I kept seeing rave reviews for Wild Fig and finally gave in and tried it with the wife yesterday! This is the best BBQ I have had in Vegas by far! Actually it's just amazing BBQ regardless of where it's from! From the meets to the sides everything was incredible! Their Chopped brisket has left me wanting more! I think I'm going back Thursday just to try the burger special for lunch! If you haven't gone yet goooo! It is definitely worth the trip! read more

My husband found this place to try out (he loves BBQ). Actually one of the best places for BBQ in my opinion, others I've been have had dry meat or overcooked. Majority of the pieces I ate were still moist and flavorful. This place is situated around the corner of Adorn Events. You'll see their BBQ area in the covered parking area first and you'll find they have about 6 bench tables scattered outside their store and also next to Adorn around the corner. Decent amount of shade (about 3 tables with full or partial shade around 3:30p). Some additional perks, they offer iced cantaloupe juice which was great because I was so dehydrated from running errands earlier. This place isn't too far from us either! Next time would probably try to dine there, service we witnessed was so nice compared to those waiting on food or taking to go. They have online ordering on their website and seem to have different meats as special over the weekend. This weekend was Japanese wagyu and pork belly. read more

What a hidden little gem!!! I didn't get any pictures because I was too busy shoveling it in my mouth. We got the 2 meat plate with the pork and the brisket, both meats were great! The brisket you could cut with a plastic fork, it melts in your mouth. The Mac n cheese is creamy and delicious. They have picnic tables outside to eat at, so plan on to go if the weather isn't permitting. read more

DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!!! Literally our favorite spot right now for bbq. Wild Fig is tucked away in a parking lot behind Dollar Tree, but it's worth it to find. Their restaurant is super chill and unassuming with outdoor seating only, but I'll say it again, it's worth it! The food is so good that we ordered takeout two days in a row our favorite items have been the pastrami sando (order early because they do sell out quick!!), their turkey sandwich (surprisingly delicious and moist), potato salad (soooo good!!), and the brussel sprouts. Really great value and the quality of food and the portion size is actually perfect. Their mac & cheese was also a hit with my kids! On top of it all, their customer service is amazing. Very hospitable staff and you are offered delicious, sweet cantaloupe juice with the best pebble ice while you wait. 100/10 for everything. A must try!! read more

Wild Fig BBQ is some of the best BBQ I've had in Las Vegas. One of my Yelp friends, Therese A. was scheduling a dinner get-together. We ended up picking out Wild Fig BBQ for dinner Thursday night! It was pretty hot outside in Vegas, around 105, but, luckily, we had a table that was next to a fan! Wild Fig BBQ is located in Summerlin. The streets are W Lake Mead Blvd and Del Webb Blvd. It's in a private plaza area. There are a variety of table seats outside. There is no seating inside Wild Fig BBQ. Wild Fig BBQ has a wide range of meat selection. -Brisket -Smoked Turkey Breast -Pastrami -Pulled Pork -Spare Ribs -Poblano Chili & Cheese Sausage -Smoked BBQ Jackfruit -Tri Tip There are a variety of side options, too! -Coleslaw - Mexican Corn Salad -Potato Salad -Homemade Pickles -BBQ Eggplant -Chili Crisp Rice -Mac N Cheese -Meaty Beans -Chili Mac -Collard Greens -Brussel Sprouts and so much more! We ended up getting [2] different entrees [3] Meat, Two Sides $36.00 + $3.00 for an upcharge on the Smoked Brisket, point brisket cut. Smoked Turkey and Ribs. The two sides were collard greens and half/half beans and mac n cheese. Pitboss: Mounds of pulled pork on top of Mac N Cheese, topped with sweet BBQ and Cojita Cheese sprinkles. I opted not to add the garlic sauce. After about 15 minutes, the owner came out with the food! The pulled pork was delicious! It was so good! The pulled pork was slow-cooked to perfection! The caramelized crust was spiced, and you could taste all of the ingredients. It blended well with the mac n cheese! I ended up taking several bites of the mac n cheese and pulled pork together! I would order this again! I also had a chance to try out all [3] meats, the smoked brisket point cut, turkey, and ribs. The Smoked Turkey was my favorite. Mixed with the Sweet BBQ sauce, it really enhanced the flavor! The Brisket was delicious, so juicy!! It had the right amount of spices layered on the brisket! The ribs were good, too! It was so great to eat out with our friends at the Wild Fig BBQ. I can't wait to go back and try out some of their daily specials like the Friday Only - Fig Rib Sando! read more
