The Proud Bird | Los Angeles

Bludso's BBQ is in The Proud Bird, an aviation-themed food hall. The ambiance and environment is amazing with planes all over the place.

But the food doesn't match the ambiance. The brisket had amazing flavor but was mostly fatty chunks. Cornbread was dry and didn't have much flavor, definitely not a fan.

Overall, if you have kids, they'll love this place. But if you're coming for the food, you will likely not be a fan.

Had such high hopes for this place! Beer, food and a playground for my toddler to run wild?! Unfortunately, our burgers were maybe worse than fast food quality. The patties were grey. The loaded tots were even bad. It really turned us off. I wouldn't eat here again but it's a good place if you want a drink and to let your kid be loud and play.

This is not just a place to sit and have a quiet dinner. This place is suitable for large functions. Work related functions. Company’s Christmas party kind of spot.. Went for my company’s Christmas gathering. It’s a nice place, with cool airplane decor outside... Service is extremely slow when there are a lot of people. As far as food is concerned. The bar is fully loaded, and pretty much that’s where the party ends up being, by the bar. Lol.

Locals love it. Kids including adult kids find everything they can imagine both food and fun. Burgers, Real smoked BBQ. Salads, greens, potatoes, waffles, Cuban sandwiches. Really happy employees. Lots of room, perfect climate control, no ice cold AC blowing right on you. Loved it, and you will too.

I was extremely impressed with the banquet service and the etiquette knowledge of the waiters and waitress assisting us with our selected menu. The presentation was excellent. A great place to have a party , weddings , meetings and spiritual gatherings. Everything was amazing and the parking was accessible. We paid 70 .00 but a portion of what we paid was going towards community and church expenses.

This is a great place to gather with friends & family, watch a game on their big screens and planes landing at LAX. There are a variety of food vendors and a bar! See our video review @TripoutwithSadieandRandThom

Great place for all ages! Lots of variety for food and drinks (alcoholic and Starbucks menus)! They even have ice cream bars for hot days :) My child had fun watching the airplanes land and take off and I enjoyed looking at the historical displays. I would come as often as I could if I lived nearby and had a younger child :)

This place is food for the history majors soul! So much to look at and experience. Life size planes with their history. Exhibit on the Tuskegee Airmen. You get to hear and feel planes taking off and landing at LAX .

We went mid-day and it was empty. Burgers were good but took forever. Workers were meh.

Give this place a try for the experience alone.

Loved the casual vibes of this place. Amazing spot for a kids playdate cute playground and few but decent food options. Only really issue was that it took long to get food but it looked like they may have been understaffed. Will definitely frequent this place more.
