21 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Carlsbad

“I was surprised and disappointed to find out The Felix's closest to my house permanently closed. So, I tried your delivery. The whole process from order time to delivery at my house took 1.5 hours. The food arrived warm. I would probably order delivery again.“

“This was our first time eating at Surf Brothers since we are visiting from the Dallas, TX area. We wanted something that wouldn’t be too heavy and greasy because we’re doing a lot of driving around today. The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Might be the best sticky rice we’ve ever eaten. The older gentleman who brought our food (maybe the owner) was incredibly kind and welcoming. I highly recommend Surf Brothers if you want something delicious, light, and fresh. We will be returning the next time we are in town. -Urgent Eyecare“

“The food is scrumptious ok it's the real deal hahahah Texas style! Yee haa“

“Great, casual place to visit in Carlsbad! Outdoor patio -Pet/kid friendly setting downstairs, and an adult upper deck bar with ocean view and fire pits. Good food and craft beer, extensive drink menu! Walk up counter ordering, and fast service!“

“Excellent cuisine with 'Soul' indeed. Very superb dining experience! Made my vacation!“

“This spot is fantastic, with such a lovely restaurant that really captures the island spirit and feels like a warm welcome. The service is amazing, and everyone is incredibly kind. The food is absolutely delicious. I even got to meet the owners, and they were so easygoing and friendly. I would definitely recommend it!“

“Cracked tri-tip is a must.“

“This place is great. Food was awesome, kid/dog friendly and nice staff. Yes, when your food is made fresh it will take a bit longer than something with less quality, but thats fine! Colors are different, but I'm not one to judge decor. Owner grew up in 80s, so a fan of neon colors, not a crime:) overall definitely great place to grab great food and fabulous margaritas!“

“After reading reviews we had to try and we were not disappointed. We initially had the brisket and tri tip and sides of mac and cheese , BBQ beans and potato salad. First off the BBQ sauce was exactly as it should taste sweet smoky with a little something left on tounge Perfect profile!. Meats were smoked to perfection and moist as it should be not dry. I would not hesitate to go back and plan on returning soon to try remainder of menu I actually ordered a sausage sandwich to go. Encourage you to try instead of some of the big box BBQ restaurants out there that struggle to make food to scale and lack consistency.“

“highly recommend. amazing BBQ salad and pizza“

“7/8/2022 I’m from Texas and no doubt I always come back when I’m in Town DELOCIOSO“

“Decent BBQ. Certainly nothing as the Texas likes of Terry Black’s or Franklin’s of the Austin area.

We decided to stop here because we were in the area and have frequented Enzo’s of Oceanside. What the heck…BBQ it is.

Andy, our server was very polite, informative and thorough. A good server. He was on it. Good job.

An appropriate location and good food for us today. Decent classic rock playing and cool decore.

“Decent meat, but not all was good. I'd say it was ranging from okay to good. Good pricing though and delicious appetizers, would go again. The waitlist seemed odd, as we put our names in the system in person but people kept being added ahead of us. Weird with the yelp waitlists, I don't think they should do that.“

“Everything, banchan, pork cheek, and samgyupsal we're my favorites.“

“Best food since we’ve been in Oceanside. Great prices and friendly staff! 10000/10 recommend“

“My boyfriend and I stopped in here on Saturday. Was not expecting the portions to be so generous! I got the chicken salad and my BF got a mixed chicken /beef plate. The food was super yummy and the staff is so friendly and welcoming!
Definitely recommend this place!“

“This is some of the best Hawaiian bbq I’ve ever had! Crystal and her team are incredible family-oriented people who always make us feel at home. The food is always delicious and we love it as a great family take out option. Highly recommend checking out L&L!“

“Finally, a spot in Oceanside that uses real charcoal!（They still offer traditional gas grills） The smoky flavor it adds to the meat is a total game-changer compared to gas grills.
The self-serve setup is super convenient—you can just grab what you want and start grilling immediately. The Bulgogi and Spicy Pork are perfectly marinated, and the quality of the meat is top-notch for the price.
If you’re looking for an authentic, no-frills Korean BBQ experience with amazing food and a laid-back vibe, this is it. Best hidden gem in the area!“

“I felt the LOVE. Thank you for the delicious food. Someone in the kitchen loves me. I went there every day for my OMAD and Ital diets while on vacation in Oceanside. Husband joined me a few days later. We ate and had a great time. Thanks again. All you vegans out there and germ phobes, there is a place for us at One Love. Try it for yourself and see.“

“This is the place!!! We eat here couple times a week. Love the bbq and katsu chicken, it’s always perfect!! Try the gravy on the katsu, life changer. Garlic shrimp is life, Teri beef and musubi make my family happy. The Mac salad is 10/10 and the staff cares about your experience! So lucky to have this in our neighborhood!! Malasadas, Lumpia, fried chicken skin!! Let’s go to L and L 🤩🌟 eat the Kalua with cabbage, yum!!! I’ve cheesecake and Hawaiian juice all the flavors❤️“

“First time in this place. I was craving steam rice and I decided to give this place a visit, and I wasn't disappointed at all. I had to go back and try another food dish, and now im challenging myself to try every single dish, that comes with steam rice“
