50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Millbrae

“Really good Chinese BBQ place. All of the bread items we tried were flaky and tasty, highly recommend the brown sugar one. The skewers were all solid, and I appreciated that the beef had a more teriyaki-style flavor, because too much cumin starts to get a bit sameish. In that regard, you should consider getting an order of the lettuce leaves to use as a wrap for the skewers, it's a great palette cleanser and adds some nice texture.

Would love to go again, but it's a bit far from my house and Chinese BBQ isn't something you can do too frequently.“

“Korean place with good vegan options. Items are labelled vegetarian on the menu, some items need to be modified to be made vegan. Clarify that the banchans are vegan (they have fish cake sometimes). Like greens, bean sprouts, and fried tofu banchan they have. Bathroom was nice and clean.

Love the mushroom tofu soup, really flavorful and they are generous with the mushrooms. Also got the hot stone tofu bibimbap, make sure to ask for no egg to make it vegan. Good option to go to if going with a group of omnis, can also accomodate larger groups as well but would consider making a reservation if the party is 6+.“

“I usually get the kalbi and chicken katsu half and half, and it is consistently solid every time. The portions are filling, the kalbi is flavorful, and the katsu is crispy and reliable. It is one of those comfort meals where I know exactly what to expect.

Parking can be somewhat difficult since the lot is shared with In-N-Out, which gets busy quickly, especially during peak hours. I almost always order ahead, so the wait time is reasonable and pickup is smooth.

The ambiance is just okay. It is casual and functional, nothing special. The cashiers are fine, not overly friendly but not rude, and service is straightforward.

I keep coming back because it is consistent, filling, and a good value for the price. It is not a destination spot, but it is a dependable go-to when I am craving kalbi, katsu, or classic Hawaiian comfort food.“

“Amazing BBQ and staff is friendly and do a great job!!“

“Managed to get a last-minute reservation and felt quite lucky! The restaurant even followed up to confirm our arrival. The service was excellent—they even poured the sake for us. I loved the heated tray on the table that kept our skewers warm; it’s such a thoughtful touch. The menu has plenty of options, and though the place is small, it feels very cozy and atmospheric. The upside-down umbrellas hanging from the ceiling are a unique touch. One thing to note: it’s quite dim inside, so it’s a bit hard to take photos. If you're taking a group shot, watch out for blurriness!“

“All their yakitoris were seasoned well and I loved both the salted and soy options. You order through a QR code using your phone so you won't have any issues with flagging down a waitress whether you're seated on the first or second floors.“

“★★ An Unforgettable Culinary Adventure!

I'm not exaggerating when I say my taste buds are still celebrating! I finally got to try Brew's Barbecue, and it was an absolutely insane, mind-blowingly delicious experience.

From the first bite, I knew this

wasn't just ordinary BBQ. The meat was phenomenally tender, practically melting in my mouth, and packed with an incredible, smoky flavor that had been perfected over hours. The sauc were the perfect complement each one unique and bursting with flavor, from the tangy and sweet to the rich and spicy.

The atmosphere was fantastic, and the smell alone is enough to make your mouth water from a block away. But the real star is, without a doubt, the food. It's clear that a ton of passion and skill goes into every single plate.

This isn't just a meal; it's an event. I am already planning my next visit and will be dragging all my friends with me. You owe it to yourself to try Brew's Barbecue at least once -but consider yourself warned, you'll be dreaming about it and planning your return before you've even finished your plate!

Do yourself a favor and GO.You can thank me later!

“The meat was tender and smokey with rich flavor. The ribs were tasty. My wife liked the brisket, it was moist and had good texture. The beans were ordinary. The slaw was good. Everyone liked the corn bread.“

“It’s like I’m back at the Mediterraneans.“

“I honestly don’t understand why the rating is so low—it’s absolutely delicious and tastes just like back home in China. I ordered lamb skewers, grilled squid, cold noodles, and grilled cold noodles. Ever since I tried it once, I’ve been craving it every day.“

“Came and found parking around the block. Put our names on the Yelp waitlist and seated in about 15 minutes. Despite how busy it was, the tables did not feel crowded. After scanning the QR code and placing the order, food came out pretty quickly and stayed warm ish on the metal plate in the center of the table powered by 5 tea lights. The stinky tofu came out first and luckily the smell did not linger. We were surprised at how affordable it was. The food did end up over lapping but the flavor profile is more or less the same.“

“The food was really good, flavorful, tender meat, and had a nice smoky flavor.“

“Excellent food 10/10, everything very delicious

Dietary restrictions: Everything is cooked with smokers 0% vegetable fat

“The food was very delicious! I loved everything I ordered! Ribs, beef brisket, chicken, potato salad, Mac-N-Cheese, and sausage! I highly recommend eating here.“

“Ok, this is great food! Awesome Barbecue and Fried Chicken. Menu is on the website. Don’t forget to tip!“

“Best BBQ I've ever eaten! Moist, great smoke AND nice people!“

“The tater tots were so good! They were very crispy and not oily. I loved dipping it in their original sauce. I had their baby back ribs too and it was okay. It was pretty dry and didn't fall off the bone and I dipped it in the sauce for flavor.

There were plenty of tables to choose from, you order at the register, grab a seat, and wait for your name to be called for your order. It's pretty loud in there so you have to stand near the window to listen for your name.

Overall I'd come back for the tots and try something else.“

“THIS IS INSANE! I cant believe i have found this amazing place! Guys i have tried all Mediterranean restaurants all over the Bay Area and trust me there is nothing close to this! You will be impressed by the food portion, quality, and price! I was never being able to finish my order! Long menu full of attractions and satisfying prices! The staff are so friendly and nice, very talented and always smiling, you will also find the owner himself serving and welcoming you with a lot of generosity and hospitality! Not only the food is amazing and quick but the vibes are so charming we always feel ourselves at home! Sorry to make it long but believe me every item on the menu deserves a story! Last but not least the phenomenal signature dessert: Kunafa! OMG! The fastest way to get dopamine and being happy! Really a perfection! 5 stars not enough trust me! Thanks for being here ❤️“

“One of the best Filipino food to go to if you need a quick fix! Also very friendly staffs. School street in Daly City, CA.“

“This is a really fantastic new Korean BBQ restaurant. The service was both warm and incredibly prompt, which really made for a pleasant experience. While the short ribs were a little bit on the sweeter side for my liking, the pork belly and chicken thighs were absolutely perfect. I especially loved the really crispy chicken skin!“

“Really solidly good Hawaiian food. I had family visiting from France who wanted to try Hawaiian food and they loved it! Especially high praise coming from Parisians used to amazing restaurants. It's a small place and nothing fancy but the food is really, really good. If you haven't been, you should definitely try it!“

“My family comes here or does take out once every month or so. Favorites are the char siu and duck which just hits the spot. Service is truly exceptional from being greeted at the door to attentive table service throughout. They are so welcoming to my child and that level of attention and care (consistently) is just so rare these days. Just a wonderful place all around.“

“Walked in not expecting much but was greeted lovingly by a sweet family running shop by themselves. They seemed delighted that we were eating In and the small homey setting really felt like they inviting us to sit at their table. The spam masubi was incredible, served fresh, with a sweet sauce, and a little touch of pork sung in there made all the difference. I got the wagyu beef with egg meal. It also came with that signature sauce and the meat was perfectly seasoned and tender. As we left, packing up the leftovers off the heaping plates of food, the father ran out to give us some extra sauce and make sure we didn’t leave without knowing how much we were appreciated. The incredible food and the family’s hospitality truly made it feel like I was eating a home cooked meal with my grandparents and I would love to come back and support them more!“

“great korean bbq plates. I usually get the beef bulgogi or the spicy pork.“

“Ordered the mini bbq chicken plate. Everything is to-go, since there's no indoor seating. The staff does a good job of helping you quickly and remembering who ordered what. Food was simple, but very tasty. If I lived closer by, I'm sure it would be in my rotation of comfort food.“

“Best roast duck & rice plate in SF for $11. I've patronize Top's Cafe since forever! Before covid this was full service restaurant. Still serving the community as a deli like service. Come and enjoy the flavors! You won't be disappointed.“

“Our band, Drini & the Bad Kats Band, played at the venue for the first time last night. The entire staff, patrons and owner were great. Our friends loved the venue as well. I’ve been for Karaoke Nights several times and have always had a blast as well. The drinks are strong and delicious, just like I like em. Lots of space to move around too. 🤗🎤🎉“

“OLHSO Truck isn’t just a food truck—it’s a fully automated robotic kitchen on wheels. Fresh ingredients are prepped daily by human chefs, but the actual cooking is done by a high-tech robot loaded with Chef Han’s perfected recipes. Once an order is placed, the truck’s system stir-fries everything while en route, so the food is piping hot and fresh just minutes before arrival.

For something made entirely by a machine, the food is impressively flavorful and well-executed.

Wagyu – Boneless wagyu short ribs marinated in a rich house sauce, stir-fried with fresh veggies. The meat is tender, packed with umami, and perfectly caramelized.

Dak Galbi – Chicken stir-fried in a gochujang-based spicy sauce with plenty of chewy rice cakes. The heat is customizable, but the deep, smoky flavor always shines.

SEOUL Food – A bold combination of kimchi, pork belly, soybean paste, and shrimp, all stir-fried together for layers of intense, savory flavor.

Japchae – Glass noodles tossed with mushrooms, fresh vegetables, and a sweet-savory soy sauce. Light yet satisfying.

Orders are placed through their app, and the robotic kitchen times the cooking process to ensure food arrives fresh—not sitting in a takeout container for half an hour. The whole concept is futuristic and efficient, and for a meal made entirely by a robot, the taste is surprisingly impressive.“

“taste good, better than the rest! okidoki!“

“Easy persuasion to eat here. Good grub and fast.“

“Great ramen!!! Fast and friendly service!“

“The Hongkong style B.B.Q is so delicious“

“So I stopped in to pick up a catering order from a different restaurant and it was to my surprise when I seen this place in serramonte. I had no idea. I was stoked! I love it because you could choose whatever your palette desired down to the flavoring. The secret to this madness is to try and stack as much as possible in your bowl (smash down your protein). It was lunch and dinner for me!! It's a must try on the to do list!!!!“

“Street parking can be hard but we were lucky to find one not too far away.

It was busy on a Saturday evening with what seems like a lot of regulars. We were a party of 5 and they sat us at a table for 4 and added a chair on the end. Once we ordered, they moved us to a big table. We ordered way too much for 5 people. Ending up taking a lot home.

Everything was very good. Except the veggie was a little too tough/mature. And the mixed mushroom with egg tofu was not mixed mushroom but only one type of mushroom. The egg tofu was very good with the broccoli.

The bbq pork with chicken appetizer was good too. The bbq pork was so juicy and flavorful.

Portions here are very big and prices are reasonable.“

“Good Service and the quality of food prepared cater for picky person like me. Absolutely 💯 recommended“

“Boneyard catered our wedding and all of the guests were pleased. The chicken, pulled pork, and brisket were true to form -- what you'd expect from a *good* BBQ joint in Texas. The staff (Rich and his family) were friendly, professional, and did an excellent job. Sides were delectable, the iced tea was perfect, and all leftovers were boxed up at the end. Needless to say, we enjoyed the leftovers. Highly recommended.“

“My first time stopping by 02/27/25 to order take out and the beautiful lady who took my order was very friendly & polite. She gave me accurate timing of wait which was 15-20mins. The chicken chowmein and salt& pepper fried chicken wings did not disappoint my son’s tastebuds lol. Glad I checked this place out, I will be back 😊“

“Our regular L&L. When we are too lazy to cook, we would ordered the following: mini Bbq chicken or a mini chicken Katsu or mini garlic Basa( yummy) or Spam musubi. These are our favorite. You can’t go wrong with these items. I also order party trays for potluck Christmas luncheon.“

“This Ohana Hawaiian BBQ location felt dirty and dilapidated. There's a weird outdoors picnic table inside the restaurant. Food crumbs and trash are on the tables. The girl taking orders spoke with barely audible words. Probably not the best person for that job. My meals were fried fish $11.25 and bbq katsu mix $12.25. Both tasted OK.“

“This is the first review of 2025. I accidently ordered off the uber app from a whim. Until I read the reviews meanwhile my meal was in route. I think they changed the cook yall. Chicken was cooked well rice as well. Mac needs its home recipe for sure. Was the chicken hot? No it was warm. But I am very impressed by the improvement. I won't be ordering again though. 😂😂😂😂“

“Don’t come for the ambience but do come for Canto comfort Chinese food. This is as local as it can be. The whole ambience is a reminder to those greasy, savory, comforting food I grew up enjoying. The best items are the bbq items in combo with a wonton noodle soup, finished with a plate of stir fried vegetables or the “ho fun” or broad rice noodles with shrimp and egg sauce. I enjoy browsing the menu but most of the time I end ordering the same dishes.
If I were to have a last meal, my usual from Mr Fong would be it.
As I tell my family: “Mr. Fong can’t go wrong.”“

“Comida de chef , muy deliciosa Aúntentica peruana“

“Satisfies Korean food craving.“

“I like this place. Basic, no frills, Hawaiian BBQ. My favorite is the Shrimp Noodle soup. Large bowl of veggies' shrimp and super hot broth. Noodles on the side in the to go orders. Such nice noodles. Cooked perfectly so they finish cooking when you add them to the hot broth. Highly recommended. All of the other Hawaiian BBQ dishes also on the menu. Not much on atmosphere though.“

“The best pinakbit, even Isla can’t compare“

“We’ve been heading over to The Night Market for the past few years! The classics are all good, Hainan Chicken, Beef Chow Fun, minced Beef over rice. But if you want to try something unique to The Night Market try the Longan Crispy Pork over rice. I can’t imagine a dish that so uniquely represents the Asian American experience. Finish it off with a mango Sago!“

“The charcoal grills are a new experience for me. It was awesome! Food was delicious! Service was great! My only complaint would be for the ventilation to be better/stronger. I know to expect to smell like KBBQ after, but I think ventilation can be improved.“

“Yummylicous barnone! Totally recommended 😋👍“

“Amazing fresh food! Huge portions! Chicken katsu & misubi are my go-2 😋 support our local businesses!“
