Barbeque Restaurants near Castro Valley

“Real, honest BBQ. I had the 2 meat combo with brisket, ribs, mac & cheese and potato salad. Best BBQ I have had since I was in Austin Texas! The owner was working hard with the rest of his employees and was the one to take my order. He seemed very nice and was helpful. I work within walking distance so I can see myself becoming a regular here. Canyons is an excellent addition to Castro Valley's food scene.“

“I enjoyed my Hawaiian BBQ. Customer was Great! The Restaurant very clean including the Restroom! I've been here at least 4 to 3 times a month! Enjoyed it!!!!“

“I visited this restaurant twice. It was so good I went back for seconds, lol. However, the second time I ordered a meat meal. The bbq Hawaiin chicken was so good both times, but the chicken Katsu lacked seasoning but was crunchy and hot. I loved the macaroni salad! I will still eat here, but I will order the bbq chicken

Parking: Small parking lot but never had a problem parking“

“I’m picky when it comes to food, especially bbq. The experience at Roderick’s doesn’t disappoint. They also have a really tasty, and affordable lunch menu. The service is very friendly, which is harder to come by now a days. I strongly recommend you give Roderick’s a try.“

“NO LONGER A MALATANG SPOT

food was good, ordered the mapo tofu(it was spicy but not numbing spicy), beef and broccoli, and pork and seaweed soup. we enjoyed the soup the most.

overall had a good experience.“

“Had the brisket sandwhich based on a recommendation. Not bad. Fries and slaw good too. Glass of soda was huge. we'll eat it again, maybe try dinner.“

“Our family has known Peni, Sherry,there kids and grandkids for over 12 yrs now. Once I saw and smelled the bbq over 12 yrs ago I gravitated towards it and have been a huge fan since. Their island q is the best on the mainland and I recommend trying it all since I don’t have a favorite. You can see the passion and love that this family puts towards sharing a little bit of their heritage through their food with all of us. I highly recommend giving it a try and definitely passing the word to others. Spend some time and say hi and you might also have friends for life. Mahalo 🤙“

“Recommend! That said, it is FOOTBALL SUNDAY 🏈 and your taps are DRY for HenHouse, Altamount Maui, and SpaceDust? Come on boys!!! Pass for today but will be back!!“

“There general cook of the meat was solid. Smokiness and tenderness was spot on. Depending on your preferences the execution on the protein was top notch. However I felt the bbq sauce (medium spice) was very average. If this was better I would have given it five stars.“

“It’s that time of the year that you count on seeing us. We pick up our sides and gravy every year. Some how a pie always seems to make it in the bag to go Happy Holidays from the Guzman’s“

“I ran across this place by accident. It is on 98th Ave., East Oakland.Some might not think the neighborhood is very nice, but there is parking and the barbecue was good for the most part. I did ask for my barbecue to be on my meat because it was very good dark, But they put it on the side instead. You have the choice of getting lunch or dinner. The dinner is gonna cost you a little bit more but it’s a lot of meat.The sauce was rich and seasoned just right I got the beans and the mac & cheese. I was told that the potato salad is actually very good. Traffic is swift , on the outside, looking in, you would never know that they have really good barbecue inside but the most part I’m pleased“

“Best place to kau kau Hawaiian 🌺 Food“

“Chris and his team put out some of the best barbecue I’ve ever tasted follow their page to get updated on where they will be usually at Bay hill Foods in Hayward.👍❤️“

“Food here is so good and a decent price for plates (I think it was $15 for a 1 meat plate and $20 for 2 meats ). Parked right outside Planet Fitness so a perfect post gym meal. The ribs are very juicy and the BBQ sauce he makes is delicious! The baked beans always hit along with the potato salad. Only complaint is that the bread sometimes gets soggy from the items in the box but that can easily be fixed. Definitely one of my favorite quick BBQ spots and I highly recommend giving him a try!“

“This place is a jewel on E14 at San Leandro Blvd. Food is good and affordable.2 choice with side is $10 with tax. 3 courses family dinner with choices is $39.99.
Credit card accepted with minimum of $15.00
Dinning room sit in available. Chinese BBQ.Roast pork,duck and steam chicken Chinese style are available. Good quality and quantity food at an affordable price.👍❤️“

“I’m a vegetarian, so I can’t speak about the Q (the men in my house cried when the last wing was grabbed), but this banana pudding is so off the hook I want to cry!! So rich and creamy! I’ve eaten 1/2 of the very generous serving and I’m stuffed. I’m gunna power through it though, because I know if I save it, one of these boys will eat it!“

“Affordable, authentic Pinoy BBQ that truly hits the spot! The food tastes just like home! From the smoky skewers to the savory rice dishes, everything’s cooked with love. The Friday night live entertainment adds such a fun, festive vibe! You’ll feel like you’re back at a Filipino family gathering with music, laughter, and good food all around. A perfect spot to unwind, eat well, and feel the warmth of home away from home. Highly recommend! 🇵🇭🔥🎶“

“It is so great to find that hayward finally has some good Chinese bbq! I no longer have to drive far when I crave for some roasted duck! And that was exactly what I ordered today. It is fresh with good flavor. You know it’s a legit Chinese roasted duck when you can taste the star anise! I will definitely return to try the other items! Pro tip - parking can be terrible, so just go further down the lot towards auto zone. There’s always plenty of parking there.“

“Love their Kalua Pork & Cabbage“

“Good food nice service nothing but the best“

“Michelle was great, she let us try the peach cobbler and a few sides. Everything was delicious! The food reminds me of home back in Texas!“

“Ribs are the best, falling off the bones and the fresh hot bread“

“A small hole in the wall right behind the main Safeway in downtown, but, it’s so good! The burgers are generously portioned and there is enough variety for anyone who finds themselves craving a burger but wants it to have unique ingredients. They have enough outdoor seating for larger groups. They offer a half/half of fried and onion rings, which we recommend, too!“

“Excellent concept well executed; super fresh juices and smoothies . Love the idea of happy hour for alcoholic drinks. A couple of suggestions-1. Music (vibe) with a speaker outside? 2. Loyalty/frequency program. Today was my first time; will definitely be back.“

“This place hands down is the best Hawaiian plates in the 510. The chicken is fat. The beef is fat. The Mac is hella good. And the plates are priced very well. This place is a solid go too. And the lady that works the counter is always nice.“

“‘Ono grinds at a great price 🍹“

“All right, I had some fresh brewed Italian coffee, which was crazy good and then ordered a bagel breakfast sandwich with bacon and avocado and it was amazing. The one thing that’s notable is everybody that I saw on their way out said see you later Pearl, and she replied to each one by name. That’s OG right there.
Would highly recommend‼️

Great little vibe there.
Thanks Pearl, see you next time.“

“The mac and cheese is the best, hands down! The brisket sammy is really good too.“

“When we go usually its fantastic especially with the affordable prices and deliciousfood/options. But today the cooks in the back was not the regulars nd the chicken wasnt crispy like they wasnt coated properly and they are small the bread was hard. The prawns also disappointing The REDSNAPPER SANDWICH HAD BONES INIT. The Yams and Mac was the only good part <28 dollers. > we was order 75“

“We ended up here tonight after a bad experience at Chuck E Cheese in the center next door. The service was quick and the food very tasty. We decided to order more for the folks at home.“

“The Korean fried chicken was delicious. The staff was a big help. They helped me pick out a good bottle of cold sake.“

“Yummy food and great service!“

“Still the best Filipino food in the bay area. I still love the grill pork tocino and the pinakbet can go wrong with the Java rice. There a lot more to choose from the menu like the combo meals. The place is small you might have to wait to be seated but worth the wait . It's definitely a must try.“

“Delicious food, generous portions, and great service. The chicken combo and aloha bbq mix are a must-try—so flavorful and perfectly cooked. iLava is consistently good every time!“

“Came here with some friends for a pre Halloween night out.

First-time and I am very impressed. Bandhan was great with some that you don't normally get at other places.

Ordered the Kimchi pancake, kimchi fried rice, tteokpokki, bulgogi and spicy pork. All great and very filling.

Staff was very attentive and warm. They had the World Series game on. Overall great experience.

Will come back to try the kimchi jiggae.“

“I’ll keep coming back for those chicken katsu 💯“

“Loved all the protein available- chicken, beef, and lamb. I had mahi fish cassava fries, lamb curry 🤤, and cassava cake! Wife had Rourou w/ tortillas for the vegans. Wait was fair 10-20mins considering it was a busy day. Definitely recommend 🤙“

“I recommend: The Great uplifting environment very peaceful and Friendly.“

“This is a nice Thai BBQ place. We got Phad See-Ew with chicken, Chef's Special Seafood Combo Plate which came with Shrimps, scallops, mussels, squid. Fried shrimp & fried calamari, with a chicken fried rice. Everything was good except I felt the fried calamari and fried shrimp had to much breading on them we ended taking some of the breading off. Overall everything had good flavor, also the prices listed online are not the correct prices in store.“

“We had Chef Aaron cater a birthday party at our house with about 50 guests and it was an incredible experience. From the start, he was professional, friendly and easy to communicate with. Prices were very reasonable, and the food is unbelievably delicious. He was punctual, set up a buffet for the party and cleaned up after. Our guests were obsessed with the bbq tacos, and many got like 4 plates bc they loved it so much. Veg options were available for my vegetarian friends too. MexiQ will be my go-to for any future parties. Thank you Chef!!!“
