Went there on a Saturday evening with four adults and two kids. We were seated right away as well as the waitress was very attentive to what we may want and kept coming back making sure everything was all set and we didn't need extra drinks or anything. It seemed like everybody at the table ordered something different, so people were tasting each others meal and everybody was happy with the meals. The coleslaw was excellent as well as the mac and cheese as side dishes. My chopped brisket was a little dry but had great flavor

First time in and left very disappointed. All of our meat was dry the ribs, burnt ends I couldn’t even chew was rock solid not soft and melt in your mouth, 3 small pieces of brisket, very dry pulled pork, also very dry chicken and flavorless which we tasted and just let them throw away and cold sausage. The potato salad was like from a grocery store, no flavor whatsoever in the Mac and cheese and was also dry. The fried pickles and the bbq beans were ok. We went in about 6:45 pm so maybe that’s why? The fried zucchini appetizer was good, we got the sampler which was a 1/4 pound of each meat and two chicken quarters. Also 1 piece of fish was also not very good, thin and mostly batter. Upsetting a waste of $98 before tip, wouldn’t mind the price of the food was delicious
Never again
I don’t have photos because I only take photos to show how delicious my food is for others to try but this was not photo worthy
I was also not planning on writing a review or else I would have taken the photo to show the disappointment

This place is amazing… from the staff, to the food, to the atmosphere! All the staff were so welcoming… Adina, the GM found out it was our first time in and came to our table and spoke with us for a while and gave us a few Nexus Smokehouse stickers, she is great. Then the food came… insanely good food, with a great price! Our waiter Cody was great, except that he told us about the Peach Cheesecake with Scotch sauce… I will never forgive him for that… it was SOOOO good and I will probably end here may times eating it… thanks for that!! 😃 This place has definitely hit the top of our list!!!

Very busy
Brisket is super tender, falls apart with a fork!
Everything we ate was well prepared and delicious. BBQ sauce was tasty. Would definitely eat here again!!
Wait staff is very attentive, warm and welcoming. Atmosphere is relaxed and well designed/decorated. Many TVs for those trying to keep up with the scores.
The food was delicious last night at the private Halloween Event. Bartenders where amazing. Had never been there before prior. Will definitely be coming back.
Really good BBQ. Great experience.

A BBQ spot with fried catfish! Being from TX this is not the norm. I love it!
The burnt ends and peach cobbler cheesecake cake took the show!
The subtle nods to Star Trek added to my love of this spot!

Came by on a Sunday afternoon after a hike for first time at this Nexxus location. I really enjoyed my meal. I got a chocolate porter which was very good although not the best dark chocolate beer in ABQ (Boxing Bear).The catfish was delicious as was the pulled pork. For sides I got collard greens and okra, both were great. They have a variety of BBQ sauces and a couple of tasty dipping sauces for your okra. Overall, very happy. Only complaint...they were playing late 70s disco fever music (Bee Gees,Boogie Wonderland) which just didn't jive with a Sunday afternoon. Otherwise ++++!

Truly disappointed on the food portion. For 13 dollars, I expected more than one piece of catfish. The Mac and cheese looked like it had been sitting for awhile and wasn't very tasty.
