50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near La Verne

“I recently visited The Corner Butcher Shop in La Verne for the first time, and I was thoroughly impressed! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and first-time buyer friendly. The staff was knowledgeable, helpful, and happy to answer any questions about their selection.

Speaking of selection—the quality of their meats is top-notch. They offer a fantastic variety of premium cuts, all fresh and expertly prepared. I was also impressed by their wide range of seasonings and specialty items, making it easy to grab everything I need for a great meal in one stop.

Overall, this place exceeded my expectations, and I’ll definitely be making it my go-to butcher shop from now on. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality meats and excellent service!“

“great food and wonderful service. very dog friendly and a really nice experience overall“

“It's not about the atmosphere, it's just really good food at reasonable prices.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's a strip mall type of situation, so it's just a curb at street level. There's a ramp nearby. No steps or anything.“

“Continuing to be the classic go-to spot for Hawaiian-style food, not only has a long-standing history, but its consistency is comforting. After all, they have some of the best Hawaiian macaroni salad around.

Whether you choose the Galbi, BBQ Chicken, or Kalua Pork the portions are big and offer a sharable value. The Katsu is also another good choice if something fried is what you prefer.

The bowls are a lighter affair, and I often have to pair it with an order of Musubi.

Pricing is under $20 thus not your typical fast food establishment.“

“The food was amazing. Such a good treat. Melo was our server and he was very nice and respectful. I do think we were under the impression that they cook for us the entire time, since he cooked for us in the beginning. But still, he checked up on us and provided us great service.“

“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.“

“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 service, and very good BBQ. Didn't get to try the beef ribs (only available day &sun), but the brisket and riblets are tender and juicy so so good 😁“

“Brisket is wonderful with the tri-tip a close second“

“The food is very good only thing I didn't care for was the fried mac n cheese balls everything else was fantastic I recommend the brisket. Their was only two workers and they still gave great service. Our server Imani and the chef Daniel were awesome. Will be coming back“

“We often buy their raw skewers and grill them at home. The beef and mutton are very fresh and the flavor is just right. It’s suitable for all ages! My daughter likes Orleans chicken crispy bones, chicken wings, and toasted bread the most. It’s the best skewers I’ve ever eaten. I recommend this restaurant to everyone, it’s delicious?“

“They used a heart-shaped rainbow sticker to attach a receipt to some old man's bag and he had an absolute epic meltdown on facebook. 5 out of 5 stars. Keep up the good work.“

“The food was good not great, but the service was excellent. Ribs, and chicken tasty, just not really authentic BBQ. But for the price and ambience it was worth the drive. Really our waitress made the difference, she was thoughtful and pleasant.“

“On our way from LAX to Palm Springs after 10:00 pm we were looking for a quick bite to eat. Drove by this restaurant and figured we would try it.The experience was one we will absolutely recommend, regarding both food and true Chinese culture. No where near what I was expecting.We had the lamb and also beef skewers and fried rice. An appetizer was brought out that we did not order, as it was included, which was right away different and tasted unlike any other soybean and peanut I’ve experienced. It was delicious!The lamb and beef was cooked to exact request and was also delicious!While we have dined at many Chinese restaurants throughout the United States, as we travel extensively and dine out regularly this surf past any, and all other restaurants, we’ve dined in for this type of food. Here’s the difference this was not Chinese food that has been Americanized in most Chinese restaurants. This was true Chinese prepared food.I truly believe you would have to travel to China to get this quality of food and culture.I will also say that we spent 3/4 of our time speaking to Cindy, whose father owns the restaurant which caters to home cooked events at homes, so this is not their primary source of how they deliver the product to the public. The hour and 15 minutes we spent there was made so much more enjoyable as Cindy walked us through the culture the food and Wyatt tasted different because it was truly cooked to Chinese standard. So I have to say, was it the food that was the greatest experience, or Cindy‘s presence and her willingness to have an open conversation about why they do it the way they do, and enlightened us about the culture of the food,I strongly recommend anyone that wants to find out what real Chinese cuisine is and how it is cooked and prepared in China. You realize very quick that this is not your drive-through, Chinese pick up takeout, that we are accustomed to here in the United States. This is a must try for the food if nothing else and when you’re there I recommend you ask for Cindy.After visiting with Cindy, she made it a total experience for an awesome evening of culture that was absolutely excellent.It is always nice to be able to understand and realize the actual culture of cuisine you are eating. Cindy, she made an experience of great food, a completely enjoyable experience. That was absolutely excellent off the charts. Cindy made it a 2 for 1 bonus to the evening.We will absolutely be driving from Palm Springs back to the restaurant. It was absolutely enjoyable. Not to mention the cost was nowhere near what we expected. It was almost like we ordered off a lunch menu for cost and the food that was delivered, and was ample to feed 4 instead of just the two of us.Thank you Cindy for an enjoyable evening and thank your father for being an unbelievable chef. The experience was one we will fondly look back on and make sure we repeat again.“

“A place where I could soothe my stomach with Korean food when I felt tired of American food.
There is a 90 minute time limit
You can freely order from the menu during any given time. However, the menu may be limited depending on the type of set requested.
While we were eating, we had birthday parties at 4 tables (including ours haha).
You can hear Kpop and taste a variety of meats in a lively atmosphere.
The waiting line may be long during meal times, so be sure to make a reservation before visiting.“

“Tucked away in quiet street in busy Diamond Bar, behind the throngs of strip mall shops is a little Thai restaurant. The decor is calming and everything looked new.

Instead of a lunch special, I opted for a full meal and had plenty of leftovers. The Pad See You was excellent with chunks of chicken and flavorful. I also opted for the Beef Satay appetizer. However the portion was huge and dinner size at $15. I spent more than I wanted for lunch but had a second meal. Now that I’m closer to Mt Sac during lunch, I’m exploring all the options that busy Diamond Bar has to offer.

Skip the ice water and get the green iced tea. Yum.“

“Gui BBQ Restaurant & Bar offers an amazing BBQ experience with fresh, high-quality meats and delicious sides. The atmosphere is lively, and the staff are attentive and friendly, making the meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and a fun dining experience!“

“Picked up a truck load frozen chicken from here.park on street and check in at office. Have to back in from street unto the docks nice and slowly. It's a quite street so shouldn't b a problem. Newbies might struggle a little bit. Best bet is to wait untill both the docks are empty since they load fast. All the best drivers 👍👍“

“Great drinking food. Got the lamb, beef, squid and pork belly skewers. The pork was my fav out of those 4. The fried milk was surprisingly good. We also enjoyed the enoki mushroom, grilled scallop, and cheesy corn. Love the atmosphere and decor.“

“Dropped in on a Sunday night for the first time and had a really great meal. Ribs weren't an option as they had just run out - which we all know is a sign of good BBQ. My wife and I went with pulled pork and brisket with sides of Mac n cheese and corn muffins (with blueberries)
The meat was tasty - just a splash of sauce with a nice smoke to it. (Generous servings, too) The Mac was the real kind with a bit of oil left in the bottom of the bowl - definitely not Kraft!
A really honest/nice BBQ experience with really good service - we'll be back!!“

“10/10 hands down the best BBQ!“

“A legit Hawaiian food spot, I haven't had a good garlic shrimp plate in CA until now (it reminds me of Giovanni's shrimps). Also, I tried their crunchy Gojujang fried chicken and beef ribs and they were delicious. I would definitely recommend these dishes as a first timer here and wash it down with Dole pineapple slushy.“

“Excellent service ! We ordered the large beef combo for 2 and it was more than enough. Very good quality.“

“On weekdays, it's still full after 8pm, but the similar store downstairs is not crowded. The skewers are delicious and delicious. We recommend the lamb loin, wagyu skewers, beef heart tubes and sausages. The lamb and scorpion pot meat is a bit lacking but the taste is good. Buying two beers and getting one free is a highlight. I will visit again.“

“Great selection! Very clean, tasted really good. So happy they are close by!“

“We had a wedding rehearsal dinner on Saturday July 2nd. Included Ribs, Chicken and Tri-Tip! Wow, did that go fast and I asked how was the food..... 5 stars especially the thin sliced Tri-Tip (made great sandwiches). Thank you Diane and crew. We will be back.“

“This place is absolutely amazing!! The food is so good and the people working there are the most friendliest I've ever met!!! I'm definitely coming back here for more food!!! 5 stars!!!“

“Came here to try your their Hainan chicken rice to compare with other restaurants. We ordered the combo for 4, came with 2 plates of already deboned chicken, 4 bowls of rice and soup stock, 1 plate of stirred fry Shanghai choi and 1 playe of smashed cucumber pickle and small tub of pried peanuts. The chicken was mediocre , the soup stock tastes like warm water which is really puzzling with all the chicken that they served. The 2 dipping sauce were not enough for the entire chciken plates. They charge extra if i you ask for more. Order through the QR code. Doesn’t work when we were there.“

“Excellent food and friendly staff!!“

“Saw an ad for Joey's in a travel magazine, and decided to try them. Ordered bbq beef ribs and chicken with sides on line. Got there at the pickup time and had to wait, as they were really busy. Did feel a little impatient having to wait, but when I came home with the food, it is simply some of the best bbq that I have had in some while. The food is delicious. No more going to any of those chain bbq places for me.“

“This is a soondubu (spicy silky soft tofu soup) restaurant like BCD chain. You can order combo menu with a meat or fish entree with a version of soondubu soup. You can select the spicy level and toppings for the soup. I thought the soup is really good but the meat dishes except for the LA rib were too sweet. Ban Chan (side dishes) were just average. For Diamond Bar I think this outlet is fine. There is plenty of parking in the shopping mall lot.

Parking: Plenty

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s on the ground floor with wheelchair ramp.“

“it's a friendly place with alot of happy smiles, it's food is great! best Hawaiian food I've tasted in a while... u can usually catch the owner at the shop and is always willing to talk to u as if u are part of the family.“

“Hey guys just wanted to show my appreciation for this place. Has great food and service. The only time I had a minor inconvenience was when this idiot in front of me was trying to get a free upgrade for his food. I think he left a review below me. Doesn’t understand that you have to pay for more food haha“

“Shhh…hidden gem! This ayce kbbq restaurant is outstanding! I’ve been to many kbbq places over the years and Seoul BBQ is top notch. Everything came out quickly, including the fried potstickers, water refills, meat refills, and grill changes. It was a laid back atmosphere, not a bunch of announcements or loud music. It had a good vibe for talking and hanging out with friends. We enjoyed several rounds of meats from the A and B menus, multiple grill changes, some peach flavored rice wine, and a fun time with friends and family. The beef bulgogi and beef brisket were excellent; everyone else in the group also enjoyed several other cuts of meat including garlic pork belly, flying tiger beef, short rib, beef belly, and others. The parking lot was a bit rough so beware. Everyone that went into the restaurant seemed well dressed and happy to be there.

Parking: There is currently some barricaded construction which has blocked some of the parking spots (Dec 2024), making it difficult to find parking. There was also broken glass in one of the stalls which raised concern about cars being broken into recently. Turn on your car’s camera if you’ve got one.“

“The spicy shrimp dish from Lobster Now is absolutely delicious! Each shrimp is perfectly fried, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich, flavorful taste. The accompanying vegetables, such as celery, dried chili peppers, potatoes, and sesame seeds, not only add a variety of textures but also enhance the overall aroma and flavor. The potatoes absorb the rich seasonings, making every bite a delightful surprise. The seasonings are evenly distributed, permeating every ingredient, and each bite leaves you wanting more. I highly recommend this restaurant to all food lovers; it’s an unparalleled dining experience!“

“What an incredible evening. I highly recommend Frank's BBQ & Catering. I hosted a small dinner party at my home and Frank & his team served on sight grilling our steaks to perfection. Frank communicated with me to help with the details, was accommodating to my guests food preferences, and had a smile on his face all night. I will book my next event with him without hesitation. Thank you to Frank & his team for making my event so memorable.“

“Gotta love this place! 💙😎💙“

“The waiter recommended the Caldo de Gallina and Wow great recommendation…it was super tasty and just the right amount of serving and the price was fair. The service was wonderful I would recommend this place if your looking for fresh clean meal.“

“Nice neighborhood sushi place where the chef greeted most customers by name when they came in, except me the first timer. Sushi was fresh and fresh wasabi was a good touch. It's funny that the chef was chatting in Korean with his friend.“

“Great service, accommodating servers even with a packed place of people“

“Out of all the Korean BBQ restaurants I have been to all over LA this one definitely knows how to run a high paced business and does not disappoint. You have a variety of meats on the side bar as well banchan. No more waiting for waiting for your order to be taken, once you are seated you can go get your meat and get cooking. A tablet is now given to you where you can order other sliced meats and hot plates. Hands down one of the best restaurants I have been to and continue to come to. Waiting time is long however Yelp makes things easier by allowing you to make get into the waitlist while driving to the location/killing time doing something else.“

“The food is fantastic, the staff is friendly, welcoming and efficient. What's not to love?“

“Came to Dun Huang for our birthday dinner as per my sister's recommendations. Their menu is quite extensive and we opted to order several dishes to eat family style; love the convenience of ordering through the app; which allows all members of your party to add their desired dishes. All the dishes were well seasoned and very delicious. My favorite dishes were the whole fish and the cucumber appetizer. Will definitely be coming back to try their other dishes.“

“I’d say the food was tasty and fresh and the place is spacious. I would suggest the servers put a smile on their face and let us know when the seafood is ready to eat once they are so we don’t keep wondering/asking and keep looking at the food on the grill. The seafood got burnt a couple of times because they didn’t come back for it but that was ok because it was just rare occasion. However, they were still attentive to our needs, thanks to them.“

“delicious food. good selection of meats. short wait for a table. our server Ethan was great as well as all the other staff.“

“mad bun is so bomb! they been there since it opened and when the other spots have come and gone they still remain!“

“Food always great service is ok too! This is like our extended kitchen.“
