45 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Citrus Heights

“Love this place. The steak is yummmy“

“We had such a great experience here and can’t recommend this spot enough. The owner and manager were incredibly accommodating and welcoming, especially in allowing us to host a groomsmen proposal dinner in their private room. From the very beginning, reserving the space was easy and stress-free.

The manager went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and taken care of and even the owner—who I spoke with on the phone—came across as such a genuinely great guy. You can really tell they care about their guests.

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cool and inviting, and the whole night felt effortless thanks to their hospitality. If you’re looking for a spot with great food, great vibes, and even better people behind it, this is it. Thank you Hangry Herd.“

“I have been to this restaurant several times and am never disappointed. The food is fantastic and the service is personable and attentive. The ribs, chicken and tri tip are juicy and I requested the sauce to be all over the place because its so amazing! I have been in Sacramento a short time but when I moved here a couple years ago and found this place, I have brought everyone I know to eat here because its sooooo good! I even recommended this place to Guy Fieri! Thank you for being one of the best!“

“Delicious fast and friendly!!!“

“I am a very satisfied customer. i totally highly recommend there service and selection. I enjoy there food. The trip tip and pull pork is 👌👍 very excellent. Keep up the good work and service I hope to see u guys once again!“

“Amazing food I would always recommend“

“Always been served with a smile, and always been delicious. Unbeatable value, less than 20 dollars for an all you can eat mongolian bbq style noodles. I see some reviews talking about the flavor of the noodles being bland but there is a whole section of sauces and tins of garlic and ginger and chili oil you can add, follow the suggested add-ins. Ask them to cook it an extra time around the griddle, they are afraid of burning food onto the cooking surface but the extra flavor on everything is worth it. If you get it to-go they let you bring your own container and fill up multiple bowls for your one trip through. Worth stopping buy again and again.“

“Absolutely amazing! The poke bowl was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced — every bite felt like a treat. The portion was generous, and the variety of toppings was impressive (so many options to customize!).

The staff were friendly, welcoming, and clearly cared about the customers’ experience. The atmosphere was clean and comfortable, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal.

Definitely one of the best poke places I’ve ever visited — I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“Everything was so good!!! Highly recommend!“

“Great selection. And very, very tasty hot and sour soup.“

“Stopped in on a whim today as we were in the area. Google gave 4.9 stars and we were not disappointed. From the greetings when we entered the door to the delicious BBQ burger and fall off the bone baby back ribs everything was great! We definitely plan to return to try other key items on the menu!“

“The restaurant had a relaxing and upbeat atmosphere. The food was flavorful with good portion sizes. And our waitress - whose name I unfortunately did not catch - was thoughtful, friendly, and hospitable; which is rare these days. The Napoleon with Armenian coffee was the perfect way to end the evening.“

“My wife and I saw this place at Home Depot, and it was way past lunch. So both of us settled for chili dogs. I’ve eaten a lot of chili dogs in my life time, but this one was beyond my expectations. The chili is homemade , and the taste is awesome. There’s two picnic tables for eating, and that’s where we ate. I will definitely go back before lunch to try their other sandwiches.“

“My nephew's fiance, K, had her bridal shower at Back forty Roseville. Galina and her crew were amazing! They were on top of everything, so nice and the food was fantastic. They helped make the event a huge success and K was very happy woth it. We definitely recommend and will be back.“

“I absolutely love this restraint. We come here all the time and the staff is so friendly ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ they always greet us and we have come here so much that they know our names and we have the best time ♥️ they always give us some plum tea which is absolutely amazing and do not have an octopus sports or news blasting on the tv, but rather a calming videos of Korea. 10/10 would recommend coming here, it is amazing ♥️“

“Had the tri-tip sandwiches and they were outstanding. First time at this location during the weekday lunch rush and had our meal in only 10 minutes. Great service !“

“I had been craving barbecue for weeks. I had to go to Roseville for an errand , while driving around hungry I saw a dickies and decided to pull in. I meet the nicest people I had the best brisket sandwich I’ve had in years and the freshest crunchiest coleslaw. I walked out there one happy camper. Can’t wait to return.“

“such a fun and friendly bar. karaoke is so fun on Wednesday night! yummy food too!“

“This place is clean and great food excellent service.we love the delicious food. We recommend friends and family. Today we went to lunch non veg and tandoori chicken is great and went back again for dinner. Delicious“

“Im from SF and can be a bit of a snob about whats good. OZ exceeded my expectations. Korean BBQ for meat lovers is a must try because there's nothing quite like it. Grilling at your own table is a very special touch. The food is FABULOUS. Not cheap, but definitely worth the price.“

“Very good food. Friendly staff“

“Inflation busting Happy Hour!!! Wow! $4 for an extensive list of both food and beverage and HUGE portions?? Yes- they have both! It was very busy, but rightfully so with the deals they have going- plus sports on multiple TV's. Lively, happy & fun crowd. I think it's great to find such a value these days. Feel like I'm late to the party in finding out, but we will be back. Thank you Mandangos for creating an affordable & fun expierience.“

“This place has plenty of parking since the restaurant is located in a strip mall. The selection is what you would expect from the usual Mongolian BBQ restaurant. Price includes all you can trips, a bowl of rice, soup, and wonton crackers. I went for the lunch buffet and if memory serves, it was $16.45. Quality of the food was surprisingly good. Would definitely go back there again.“

“This was my first time visiting this place. The seating area is spacious. I came in in early dinner and luckily it was not busy yet. Best jja jang myun in sacramento. The jja jang myun had that perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet, with chewy noodles and for me the sauce was lighter than other places I’ve been too.

Service was quick and friendly , and everything. Came out hot and fresh. The place is clean casual and definitely worth stopping by if you are craving solid Korean Chinese comfort dishes.“

“We had a 33rd birthday party for our son, his band and groupies, party of 11. The mgt Kien/Kenny was very accommodating with our reservation, running a slide show in our private room and the lobby while our guests arrived. The seafood pancakes, desert, and spinning the prize wheel were unexpected treats. Some may think it's pricey but when I consider that for the price I would pay for a basic Rib Eye dinner elsewhere, I can have as much Rib Eye, as well as a variety of other meats, chicken, shrimp, sides as I can possibly eat, it's very reasonable. Most of our group were 1st timers, so the cultural experience of new foods, cooking at your table the way you like, made for a unique experience. Our group of 20 something yr old punk rockers had a lot of fun, the service and food were excellent. We'll be back...ps. call ahead to gauge the crowd and bring an appetite.“

“What a great casual hangout place!“

“5 stars. They were very kind and patient and made a Smaller version of the combination plates for my daughter! Thank you to the Chef, will come here again! You should too :)“

“Excellent BBQ and service. Can't wait to go back.“

“Great bbq chicken 🍗 and the beans and potato salad was so delicious! The staff was very friendly. 😊“

“Truly enjoyed the food delicious“

“Best Mongolian BBQ in the region. I eat here weekly. Amazing egg flower soup and veggie egg rolls come with your meal. Gets really busy at lunch rush so try to get there early or late (check hours).“

“Hidden little spot, but it is delicious! The lamb is amazing, super tender and seasoned very well (came w a little basket of bread I think). Chicken shawarma is pretty tasty too. And the prices are super fair!!! Baklava hit the spot at the end for a sweet bite! Definitely going back!“

“❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We ordered the Family Meal from O’Connor’s to sample a bit of everything—1/2 lb Tri-Tip and Brisket, two half chickens, garlic mashed potatoes, tri-tip chili, garlic bread, and BBQ sauce—and everything was fantastic! The chicken had a flavorful dry rub, and the skin was perfectly crispy while the meat stayed incredibly juicy. The tri-tip was tender and packed with flavor, and the brisket had a rich, smoky taste that hit all the right notes. But the surprise standout? The tri-tip chili—absolutely outstanding! The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and comforting, and that loaf of garlic bread didn’t stand a chance once we got started. Add in friendly, helpful service, and you've got a 5-star experience. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Long wait but the food was good.“

“As everyone knows, not all L&L Hawaiian BBQ is the same, and neither are the other Hawaiian BBQ places. L&L Hawaiian BBQ is the OG of all Hawaiian BBQs. My wife got the Seafood combo, 2 spam musubi, and the saimin that came with 2 slices of spam. She was definitely happy. I got the loco moco, a Portuguese musubi, and a lau lau. We both got the pineapple cream soda, which really hit the spot as in flavor. I was joking with the cashier Peter, just to liven up the atmosphere. He went with the joking and we laughed. The other workers were polite and smiling. I asked about the Hawaiian shaved ice, I’ll get some next time I visit. I bought enough food to keep me happy for the next couple of days. This L&L serves large portions, not like the rest of the Hawaiian BBQ. Just so everyone knows, I was born and raised in Hawaii. So naturally I know how the food should taste, especially the lau lau. My wife and I both got the Haupia for dessert, it brought back memories that were long forgotten.“

“Low wait time, but did not affect the food quality. Got chicken Katsu plate. Chicken was not dry, was not slimy and was not mostly breading. Spam musubi were thick, without too much sauce or to much rice you cannot bite. Staff was in high spirits and atmosphere is family friendly.“

“Sonora location. Tried when first opened and few weeks ago. It was clean (new) and great service. Re-visited yesterday and totally the opposite! Counter was dirty, all food was low. It was 4 o’clock and not busy. The cook, other gentleman and waitress was very unprofessional and unsanitary! The cook, yes while wearing gloves, continued to touch dirty services and our food. At one point he had his cell phone in his hand looking at it while cooking our food. Phone back in dirty pocket, touching his hair then back to cooking our food! The conversation between the three of them were load and unprofessional. I was so ready to leave! Definitely won’t be returning anytime soon.“

“OMG! 1st time here. had to wait a bit for fresh, delicious food. service was great , food is OMG so good, the Mac salad just yummy. went today around 6pm, staff was friendly and attentive, even when customer/ pick up person was super RUDE because fresh beef had to cook, with his food workers and woman are below be attitude, Sonya I think her name was handled herself well and continued to work along with co workers to get orders out, food fresh. Will be back“

“I've been to every Mongolian place around and I can't believe It took me so long to come here. Best place around. Quality and Quantity in your options. Plus the pastry like bread sticks are a must with your to go order. Highly recommend.“

“Only took a star off cause they didn't give us plasticware. Not a huge deal, but kind of important 😅

Edit: Meant to add on, the food was sooooooooo gooooooood!! Loved the mac salad, and the bbq meat I ordered was delicious, especially the beef!! 🤤🤤🤤 Masubi was good too, though I agree with other reviewers that the spam was pretty thin compared to other hawaiin bbq places. Still, it tasted very good! Will definitely come back.“
