23 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Imperial Beach

“Service was good. Prices were reasonable. Decor was fun. My teriyaki chicken with rice was good. My daughter ate all of her chicken teriyaki bowl. My wife’s teriyaki steak was burnt, though. We sent it back (they actually just left the first one at our table). The second one was almost as bad. The server noticed and took that dish off of our bill without us asking (which was nice). Stay away from the steak and you’ll be fine. We would go back, so please don’t take this as a negative review.“

“Nice smoky and spicy flavors; as Marc Murphy says, "seasoned with authority." Very nice staff. The cucumber pickles took me right back to my childhood, to family dinners on the High Plains, prepared by my bachelor farmer great-uncles and an unmarried aunt or two, who had their Southern roots in their memories. Yummmm!“

“My parents use to work here way, way ,WAY back in the day when it was owned by the Jensen's. This is one of the few things I do miss about California. Whenever I'm back in Southern California, I always make sure to stop in. Great food, great atmosphere. All around, a definite must.“

“Delicious! This place has been on my list for a while and it did not disappoint. The tri tip sandwich and brisket sandwich were delicious! The meat was so tender. Potato salad was a winner. Green beans were too salty. Plain fries were another hit! The loaded fries were too much for me... plus they have a great drink menu. Sauces were underwhelming - they had a strong vinegar taste. However, the sandwich didn't need any more sauce! Beyond delicious as is. Also, I haven't found a restaurant to serve Not Your Fathers Root Beer until now! Service was polite, friendly, and prompt. This restaurant is family friendly. It's a great, casual, atmosphere that offers both indoor and outdoor seating. There are heaters, fun old school music playing in the faint background, and fun Disney references sprinkled in the decor! I'll be back :)“

“We love Korean Bbq!. Love this location. It's so much more open than their other location in Chula Vista. The vents are amazing that you barely smell any smoke. You never leave smelling like Korean bbq. The service was excellent. The kids loved the robots. We will definitely be back“

“My first time eating here and I got the sample bbq plate and it was delicious. The Tri-tip was juicy and tender. The ribs and pulled pork have good flavor. The Mac n cheese is yummy. I got the chipotle raspberry sauce and it’s super good. I will be back to try the other things on the menu.“

“Love love this place! Catfish is fire!!!“

“It's a hidden gem. It's a mom and pop shop, it's absolutely delicious! My friend was telling me about this location and I decided to go before they close. I got some of the noodles, sausages, bread and beef as well as two canned sodas (I don't know the exact name of some of the dishes because I kind of just took whatever they had left) such great portions and I will 100% be back so I can see what else they have. I spent less than $40“

“I ordered from Cali BBQ on DoorDash as a result of a promotion they were having on there. I'm sure glad I did! The food was soooo tasty!!! I ordered the County Fair Sandwich which consisted of pulled pork and Mac n cheese in between sourdough bread. It was so yummy! My wife ordered the rib tips which were very flavorful. The sides- potato salad and country beans were also very good. To top it off, The portion sizes are huge ! They don't short change you. I would definitely recommend Cali BBQ!“

I had the catfish, greens & beans, unfortunately they were out of Mac n cheese, but judging by the catfish & greens I already know the Mac b cheese will not disappoint. I’ll be back every weekend for sure.“
