20 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Long Beach

“The BBQ baked beans are legit!! Big chunks of meat in it and veggies!! Yum!!“

“I found this new BBQ pop-up in Lakewood at the YMCA and I can’t say enough good things about it. From the kindness of the family that runs it, to the delicious food. Last week I had the 3 meat plate (I chose brisket, pork belly and chicken) which came with 2 sides and it was only $28! The brisket and pork belly were SO tender and juicy and had an amazing flavor! Earlier today I had the one meat plate with chicken, this coleslaw that is probably the best I’ve ever tasted, and their brisket chow mein. So good! Everything is homemade down to the sauces and they have things like burritos and Texas toast brisket grilled cheese. It’s called Axiom Kitchen. Husband, wife and kids and so kind…they made us feel so special. We haven’t had service like that in a long time. I know they are at the Lakewood YMCA on Sundays and I think Fridays and they are at another location on Thursday but I’m not sure where.“

This was my first time at Broken Spirits distillery. Came oodles of times at Portuguese Bend distillery so it the restaurant is similar yet different at the same time. Major differences for me: I feel like this is more of a BBQ based restaurant/distillery with all the meat on the menu. (Don't get me wrong, I love the meat!). We ordered and shared the 16 oz prime New York steak ($44.99) which also comes with two sides! This is a killer deal that I would def come back for. For sides we got broccolini and fried Brussels. ( Alone they're $7 side). TBH, I kind of enjoyed the sides a bit more than the entree itself, but both were great.

Cocktails were yummy too as they were about avg price for LA county at $14 each. Came fast and tasted great!

There is plenty of seating inside and service was great. Parking is close in the garage across the street if there is no street parking.

If you're on the area, I would def stop by here!“

“Best BBQ Pork Sandwich ever!!“

“The food was amazing and the staff is first class. The restaurant was beautiful and the live piano player was unexpected and set the mood for a fabulous experience.“

“The meat was good and tender. Service was exceptional. However, they could use some coaching on preparing the sides. They were a bit lackluster in taste.“

“This spot is within a food hall and I love these setups because of the amount of food options available.

I ordered their bulgogi burrito with no rice along with their Korean spicy popcorn chicken. The burrito was phenomenal and one of the best burritos I’ve ever had. A bulgogi bowl but put into a wrap and the popcorn chicken was solid. Overall both items were delicious.

I’d definitely come back to try their other menu items and overall it was an excellent lunch!

***update***
I also tried their make your own salad bowl with salmon, chicken and bulgogi. It was excellent and overall delicious bowl with a great sauce.“

“The food is an upgrade from Ono Hawaiian BBQ. Treat yourself American! Shootz!“

“Absolutely fantastic BBQ. If you're looking for a good hole-in-the-wall type food, this is the place.
Pro tip: Make sure to ask if their menu out front is still the right pricing. They sometimes run specials, and I got the "All Meats" (like 5 different kinds of meat) plate with 2 sides for 35$ (Listed for 50$ on the menu). Menu contains no bad choices, everything is great!“

“Ribs, Beer, and setting at the bar. Great food.“

“The food is just absolutely amazing. You feel like you’re eating at family’s house because you can taste the time, effort, and love that goes into cooking every single thing. But I’ll tell you, it’s Robert Earl’s wife that’s the featured item here. She is genuinely sweet and caring and truly wants you to love their food. We enjoyed talking to her during our visit. The portions here are massive. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth, believe that. Overall, great place, and I wish I lived closer. I wonder if they could deliver to the east coast? Haha!“

“This is an underrated gem near the Rose Park neighborhood on 7th Street. The young lady and man working the counter are friendly and seem genuinely interested in serving customers. There's a cozy ambience to the place that is so inviting, and the food is great quality for the reasonable prices. Coming back all the time!!“

“Tasty French dip. Lots of meat and a really tasty roll. Will definitely be back. Thanks for a great experience!“

“I had the catfish and fries with cornbread it was simply amazing it was so good nice and hot fresh I'll definitely be back again and I will recommend this restaurant to all of my family and friends“

“I've tried just about everything on the menu at Shady Grove Foods and nothing disappoints. I can close my eyes and put my finger on the menu and I would be happy wherever it landed. I had Sticky Bones again tonight and I'm as thrilled as the first time I tried them and all the other times I've had them and in fact I feel like tonight's were the best ever. I seriously enjoy their food and hospitality. The hardest part is driving back to Cal Heights without opening the box and start eating. Compliments to the whole staff and guys cooking it up in the back. It's about to get even better real soon. I can't wait. Stay tuned. . . .“

“Food was great. Server was friendly. Food came out fast. Check was big but hey what do you expect with bbq. I would go back.“
