16 Best Barbeque Restaurants near El Granada

“Amazing BBQ and staff is friendly and do a great job!!“

“The best Palestinian/Jordanian/Lebanese food ever! So happy it’s open again in San Bruno 😍“

“We’ve been here twice, but only downstairs, which can get very noisy. Their yakitori is very good. We also tried the mentaiko udon and grilled corn and both were good, too.

There’s a public parking garage behind the restaurant. Parking is free after 6 pm. You can enter the restaurant through the back door.“

“Absolutely amazing food and service! The hummus was on point, creamy with tender and juicy steak and fries. The kunafa was delicious; not too sweet or overly cheesy with right amount of ice cream. The servers all had smiles in their face and absolutely respected everyone. The environment was clean and the food was piping hot.“

“I honestly don’t understand why the rating is so low—it’s absolutely delicious and tastes just like back home in China. I ordered lamb skewers, grilled squid, cold noodles, and grilled cold noodles. Ever since I tried it once, I’ve been craving it every day.“

“The meat was tender and smokey with rich flavor. The ribs were tasty. My wife liked the brisket, it was moist and had good texture. The beans were ordinary. The slaw was good. Everyone liked the corn bread.“

“My family and I decided to drop by because my mom had come here with a friend before. Upon entrance, I was sort of confused until we were led into an enormous seating area with decorated walls. We were sat down and the server, Natalie, met us with instant kindness. The menu consisted of a lot of cool dishes, but we decided on a simple meat-glass noodle combination thing that was put over one of those black circles that heats it up. After the meat was cooked, I tried some with the rice tthat was given to accompany it and everything tasted soooo good! I would HIGHLY recommend this place.“

“Really good Chinese BBQ place. All of the bread items we tried were flaky and tasty, highly recommend the brown sugar one. The skewers were all solid, and I appreciated that the beef had a more teriyaki-style flavor, because too much cumin starts to get a bit sameish. In that regard, you should consider getting an order of the lettuce leaves to use as a wrap for the skewers, it's a great palette cleanser and adds some nice texture.

Would love to go again, but it's a bit far from my house and Chinese BBQ isn't something you can do too frequently.“

“Easy persuasion to eat here. Good grub and fast.“

“Authentic korean food! Very happy to find this restaurant as I visit SFO for work quite often. Nothing fancy but the food here tastes just like homemade mom's food. The portion was very generous with a variety of side dishes. The staffs were very kind, attentive and courteous. I can't wait for my next visit already.“

“Boneyard catered our wedding and all of the guests were pleased. The chicken, pulled pork, and brisket were true to form -- what you'd expect from a *good* BBQ joint in Texas. The staff (Rich and his family) were friendly, professional, and did an excellent job. Sides were delectable, the iced tea was perfect, and all leftovers were boxed up at the end. Needless to say, we enjoyed the leftovers. Highly recommended.“

“I usually get the kalbi and chicken katsu half and half, and it is consistently solid every time. The portions are filling, the kalbi is flavorful, and the katsu is crispy and reliable. It is one of those comfort meals where I know exactly what to expect.

Parking can be somewhat difficult since the lot is shared with In-N-Out, which gets busy quickly, especially during peak hours. I almost always order ahead, so the wait time is reasonable and pickup is smooth.

The ambiance is just okay. It is casual and functional, nothing special. The cashiers are fine, not overly friendly but not rude, and service is straightforward.

I keep coming back because it is consistent, filling, and a good value for the price. It is not a destination spot, but it is a dependable go-to when I am craving kalbi, katsu, or classic Hawaiian comfort food.“

“I am giving 4 stars because i order rice and i feel like i was over charged. I will likely go there again.

Good
Very little customers
Typical hawaiiian BBQ
Prices seemed typical

Bad
Over priced rice (i am still a bit bitter about being overcharged for that).
Nothing really special just average.“

“The charcoal grills are a new experience for me. It was awesome! Food was delicious! Service was great! My only complaint would be for the ventilation to be better/stronger. I know to expect to smell like KBBQ after, but I think ventilation can be improved.“

“It's very hard finding crunchy chicken skin that is cooked perfectly to bring home and enjoy with rice and papaya salad!

Grill City will load a bag for you, which is only about 1LB for under $15! That's a great deal for cooked chicken skin.

There are many other great food options, but this is my go-to for chicken skin!!“
