“We haven't been disappointed at Ruby Red. Food and service is the best.“

“I am from out of town i am here visiting my sister in the hospital. I was looking for a good teryaki plate for my wife and I. I read reviews and I decided to try hi bbq. The customer service was great,the price was good and the food was excellent. The ginger dressing was tangy and really good for the salad. The chicken and steak was flavorful and the macaroni salad was really good. Until my sister comes home this will be the place we will go to. If you are looking for really good food at a good price I highly recommend hi bbq. Also the staff was really nice and the place is very comfortable.“

“Delicious bbq Hawaiian style chicken with rice and macaroni salad 😋“

“I don't know if I had high expectations or if the chef didn't show up during lunch time, but I was recommended cold noodles and pork cutlet, but I think they were below average.

The overall atmosphere was good and the side dishes were delicious, but the main dish was lacking. The taste of galbi cold noodles cannot be missed, but the ribs seem to have lost their flavor and the cold noodles leave a lot to be desired.

The soybean paste stew was really bad.
I don’t know how to make this soybean paste stew.
It can't be without taste @.@

The servers are friendly and the service is good.“

“Great lunch special priced at $22.99 (available 7 days a week which is pretty rare) and they have a DIY taco station! The taco station is so unique and definitely worth trying to elevate the meal! Good vibes, decent service, and you can queue via yelp waitlist. There are two locations La Habra + Rowland Heights!“

“Insanely great food, in addition to amazing service. the pork plate is a must try! Their Mongolian BBQ is remarkable as well.“

“Great customer service & delicious food💕“

“Brandon was our server and he was so nice, so funny, and explained everything to us loved it!! The wall decor is awesome, they even had robots serving your side dishes! The Diamond Tier was awesome with grade A5 the dry aged wagyu was melt in your mouth good! Just as good as what we had in Japan. Brandon cooked them up for us and we enjoyed talking with him. Celebrating my husband's birthday they sing and have some ice creamsicles ube or honeydew flavors. They do have drink stations, some extra food stations, a dessert station all of which you can walk around to grab yourself. The Otoro thick cut and black pepper beef cubes were our other favorites. Can't wait to go back!“

“Amazing food and amazing customer service!! I shared it on all my social media’s so all my friends would know about this place and be able to have their own experience at home. My whole family loved it and enjoyed it. Definitely recommend this place!“

“Great service and food . The best ribs in Cerritos“

“Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Friendly staff, quick to go service, and delicious food! The spare ribs were my favorite with the meat falling easily off the bone. In my opinion, 1/2 rack is enough for 3 people. I didn't realize this and ordered 1.5 racks 😅 I loved the onion rings. However, not sure I'd pay $10 for them. If you love ribs, I definitely recommend this place!😋“

“Located in an industrial park. with tight angle parking in a single row. Small-ish restaurant, with indoor dining space plus a covered outdoor space extending off the front toward E. Miraloma Ave. Young lady at the order counter greeted us immediately & was very friendly. Interior spaces looked clean & tables were kept attended as the busy Saturday crowd turned over. My wife & I decided to share a Sandwich Sampler as our first visit meal. I'd read good reviews about their brisket, but I found it to be of average quality & maybe overcooked. The sausage was slightly better in flavor & juiciness, and the turkey was very good. Overall a satisfying meal experience, and I'd recommend Blake's Place if you were craving BBQ.“

“I have also eaten at many barbecue restaurants. The ingredients in this barbecue restaurant are very fresh and taste good. Both meat and vegetables are grilled to perfection. The environment shows that the boss is very attentive and the service is very considerate. The price is reasonable and cost-effective. I recommend it to friends who like barbecue.“

“Very good food 10 out of 10 🤤 bomb“

“I can’t give enough stars. I ordered catering for my son’s 2nd birthday. I live in Las Vegas and I was able to order everything via email with Josh. I explained the sides I was going to have and the number of guests. He predicted my food exact! Everyone enjoyed the food! They have awesome customer service, pick up process was easy, and food was fresh and delicious! I will be back for all my family events. Thank you Steve’s BBQ!!“

“It’s been a while since I last had Mongolian BBQ, probably mostly inside malls. This was a new one for me being in a plaza outside of a mall. This restaurant was set up like a Chipotle style where you choose the ingredients for your meal instead of picking it out with tongs on your own. The food was good and there was some sauce provided that made it even better.“

“We went for the first time today and boy was it delicious! I had the brisket bowl my husband had the 405 sandwich and we shared the brisket loaded fries, it was all delicious there was nothing left! Cudos to the person that is smoking the meats in Artesia location and the staff😊“

“This place puts a fun twist on Korean BBQ, blending in some Mexican and American flavors—such a cool fusion for the neighborhood!
I had a great time here. The food was delicious, and the music really set the vibe haha.
The Kalbi was hands-down my favorite, and the kimchi fried rice was perfectly portioned and packed with flavor.
The service felt super warm and welcoming—like family. And seriously, the food? Yummmm! 😍
I’m definitely coming back!“

“The BBQ is so good for me. Service was friendly and fast, and the overall atmosphere was warm, laid-back, and full of that Chinese BBQ charm. Whether you're a BBQ lover or just hungry for something hearty and satisfying, this place is a must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Food was delish❤️friendly services“

“The meat quality is good, the place is clean and modern. The only downside is that they don’t have steam egg option but not a deal breaker.“

“fantastic food!! awesome cook owner! highly recommend!“

“Absolutely delicious! I decided to try this place today and I'm immediately reviewing to get people to support this local gem. I had the tofu vegetable combo plate and it was tasty as hell. The tofu was soft, the veggies had the perfect bite, and the brown sauce was well seasoned. The entire dish was warm and light enough that I almost cleaned my plate despite it being so satisfying. I'm happy I was able to bring some home for later and will be going back regularly now!“

“Pleasant surprise for a great meal after golfing across the street at Diamond Bar. Meat was fresh. Bangchan was tasty and service was good, granted that it was a quiet night. The decor was kind of odd for a BBQ spot but the price performance is great.“

“Great experience!!! Great food!!!“

“This is my first time going and I was lost I was looking for a standalone restaurant. This is inside a little mini mall atmosphere building I would have never found it if it hadn't been I was meeting a friend. By the way the food the barbecue is awesome it is unbelievably good The meat was just so tender and that barbecue sauce was absolute heaven on earth. I love the atmosphere. It was so nice and cool inside parking was a bit of a nightmare but it was worth it to have lunch at the pit and bull. Bathrooms provided an indoors very clean great atmosphere there's a lot of picnic tables set up where you can pick what restaurant food you want pizza or barbecue or there's a bakery in there that has the most awesome desserts I got a cherry pie and an apple pie They were $9 They were a little mini pies. All I can say is I highly highly did I mention highly recommend this place It is unreal awesome 👍🏽😎“

“Great food friendly people“

“Great ihaw ihaw and crew are very friendly“

“I’ve been going here once a week for a while now. Today I ordered the grill cheese with tri-tip and once again it didn’t disappoint. The sandwich is actually two meals for me. Give this place a try.“

“Evan's is hands down one of the best BBQ joints around. Every visit has been spot-on — not a single miss! The brisket is absolutely killer, and that summer salad hits the spot (gotta balance out the meat and healthy items...right?).

For my birthday, my wife catered from Evan's, and they nailed it. One of the standout items was the smoked chicken, and let me tell you — the tray of chicken thighs they delivered looked like something straight out of a championship turn-in box.

Each thigh had a beautifully rendered, bite-through skin — a true pitmaster's touch — and the meat was perfectly juicy, coming clean off the bone without falling apart. Flavor? On point. Smoke? Clean and balanced. It was BBQ chicken perfection.

I would add a picture but that tray of chicken got hit like a trash can at midnight by a family of raccoons!“

“We visited around 7 PM on Sunday, and although the restaurant was almost full, we were lucky enough to be seated right away without waiting. They don’t take reservations, so depending on the time you may have to wait. For an all-you-can-eat place, the meat was surprisingly delicious. The portions per plate were quite large, but our attentive waiter kindly suggested ordering half portions, which was perfect for us since we don’t eat much. The fresh salad was so tasty that it made us want to eat more. Our waitress was very charming and friendly, which made the experience even better.“

“Great KFC Wings and cold beer!“

“One of my favorite KBBQ spots in the area. The beef quality is legit, and the charcoal grill makes a huge difference — you can really taste it. The staff here are always on top of things and super friendly. It just feels like they actually care. Definitely worth coming back.“

“Came by with my son last minute they were almost sold out (says a lot about how amazing there food is) so we grabbed what they had left bbq beef ribs mac and cheese and smoked beans….you guys the food was beyond AMAZING i love bbq but this particular spot 10/10 my son is a picky eater i got him his own plate he devoured the ribs and mac and cheese. I highly highly recommend do not listen to the few who gave negative reviews because you will definitely miss out. The service was amazing very nice and patient with us. Too bad i cant post a video because the portions are HUGE !“

“Chose this place without expectation after hours of play time at Kid's Empire, an indoor playground nearby. We were tired and hungry and ready to grub. Guess what? THE FOOD WAS BOMB!!!My son and I shared the CHICKEN COMBO -Chicken Katsu and Chicken Teriyaki with rice and macaroni salad. Huge portion. Chicken was cooked perfectly and Mac salad was on point! I'd order it again.My husband enjoyed his SEAFOOD PLATTER -Fried Shrimp, fried fish with rice mac salad. Huge portion too. They also had boba drinks. We tried the mango slush with Boba and was a little sweet for my liking but still good.Customer service was great! The young girl who took out order was nice and helpful and the older lady who maybe the owner was really nice and offered us water and check on us making sure we were okay.Will be back if we are in the area.“

“What a hidden gem! Tony’s Barbecue in Anaheim is a small Filipino restaurant serving up big, authentic flavors. We tried the grilled chicken and pork skewers, pork belly, and grilled seabass—all perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, served with rice on the side.

To top it off, we ended the meal with their Halo Halo and fresh-from-the-oven soft bibingkinitan—such a perfect finish. Service was fast and friendly, and the prices are very reasonable. I’ll definitely be coming back for another delicious, authentic Filipino meal!“

“Excellent/Hospitable Service & Tasty Food Selection“

“I've been coming here for 5 years now. It's always consistent. Their mac salad is unrivaled!!
Angie was nice to see after a long day at work today as her smile was very welcoming. Eddie is always nice to talk to as well. Thank you!!

Try their Moco Loco...
5 Stars!“

“best pulled pork & barbecue chicken! it was just a bummer they ran out of ribs🙄 i will catch on next time.“

“Was pretty good, lots of small bites! I’m used to more kbbq style, but the experience and the aesthetic made the dinner here really fun. You order from and iPad, and the selection options are bit overwhelming as a first timer. Got a variety of meats (beef and pork - both good) the cucumber was fresh and perfect to cut through the heaviness, and the arctic surf clams were my favorite!“

“We were recently passing through Pasadena and boy, did Yelp come through for us when picking a place to eat! Craft by Smoke & Fire in Old Town Pasadena ended up being the perfect choice. It was a beautiful evening and we opted to sit outside. We were lucky enough to have Stephanie as our server…and also lucky to be there during happy hour – you gotta love a 2 for 1 drink special! It was hard to choose between all the craft cocktails, but we ended up ordering Lulu Lemons which were excellent! I play mixologist when entertaining at home, and when I expressed interest in recreating this drink for our friends, Stephanie was kind enough to share the recipe! The menu is full of yummy Texas-style BBQ options made from locally sourced meat, and it was hard to choose. We landed on brisket grilled cheese with a side of mac & cheese (can you have too much cheese?!) and a harvest brisket salad. Both were so delicious. The outside table area was pretty full and although she was covering a lot of tables, Stephanie was knowledgeable when guiding us through the menu, super attentive and personable to boot! We look forward to returning…and to checking out their Anaheim location as well!“

“Had a wonderful time & the food and drinks were great. Really good service as well.“

“straight to the point. this place is outstanding from the food to the service to the ambience 100% satisfied special thank you to our server gracie. she did a excellent job“

“I’m a big fan of skewers, and this place truly stands out among all the skewer spots I’ve visited. One of the unique experiences here is grilling the fresh meat skewers yourself, which allows you to fully appreciate the juiciness and heartiness of each bite. Their dan dan noodles are a must-try and come highly recommended.“

“I had the catfish and it was great . You have to eat it with the special sauce he has . DD was just outside with his meat smokers and jamming some amazing tunes. What a great guy and I will definitely go back for more. 5 big stars“

“This our first time here. We came at almost closing ( 840pm) but the employee was really nice to accomodate and still help us with the food. We ordered a combo 2 for $29 ( only online) n got it to go since they almost close. The food came out hot and portion is generous, they gave a lot of meat and sides r delish. For a bbq chain this is really good quality. Fries r crispy n well seasoned, mac cheese was good, bbq sauce was delishhh. The toast was soft but crunchy at the same time, very buttery. The meat is so juicy and tender and soft fall off the bone type. I couldnt finish my plate in 1 go n i was pretty hungry! Definitely will be back again :) 9/10“

“Flavorful & JuicyStopped over to pick up a little BBQ. Yum, yum.Tri tip, ribs and chicken.Yes, try the chicken it falls off the bone totally juicy and has an excellent flavor (tip: you don't need any sauce) it's great.Tri tip is juicy and you get good chunks.We got 2 sides mac n' cheese (thumb size noodles and plenty of cheese. Also a side of potatoe salad, its chunky with black olive pieces, egg pieces and quite creamy. I don't know the recipe but it's good and home made.Giant barrel smoker. They park at the cross streets of Francisquito blvd. and are off of Puente Ave. (Look past the O'Reilly Auto parts) Follow the smoky smell!“

“Super awesome to see, South El Monte has so much Asian foods and they are all delicious. A lot of people in South El Monte love Chinese, Vietnamese, and Japanese cultures and so the businesses in the area thrive. I also enjoy getting Korean BBQ meats in the South El Monte City or a nice hot meal at the Daikokuya Japanese Ramen place on Garvey. I noticed that a lot of people in Korean Town over in Los Angeles were starting to purchase up commercial real estate and launch businesses in South El Monte. In a recent merger and acquisition of a major grocery store business chain in South El Monte, it had become Korean owned as well and started to add many awesome products such as canned boba drinks. South El Monte is one of the most vibrant, diverse, and sweet pockets of hidden gem Asian foods in California and the San Gabriel Valley. When I go to school on the East Coast, I really miss it.“
