50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near North Hills

“lo mejor asado criollo de la argentina esta en manos de martin fierro asados“

“Very good Filipino food feels like home! Grill City is very affordable compared to other Asian and Filipino restaurants that I tried. The supermarket attached has a great selection of Asian products and I found some of my favorites from back home.

The staff at Grill City in North Hills particularly is very friendly and respectful; they’re always smiling and happy to assist when I need it, and they provided great service. I definitely recommend this place!“

“It's down and dirty, proletariat BBQ at its finest. THAT's the secret weapon. Simplicity of design and meats that are properly seasoned, then smoked to perfection, with sauce that's on-point. I grew up eating BBQ. This place rocks.“

“First restaurant I ate in 1982 and the bbq is still great.“

“Had my motorcycle serviced in the area and decided to walk here for a quick meal while i wait. Yo the food is bomb. I got the pork belly and it was 10/10. The sauce the restaurant had on it was perfrctly sweet and savory. It really hit the spot. I wasnt expecting such a good meal and ill definitely be back here with or without my motorcycle being serviced.“

“Iit was a very good dinner experience with my kids!“

“Friendly staff and servers. Good selection. Good meat . They seated us right away . Good parking. First time and if I am in the area again, will definitely eat here again.“

“In San Fernando on business. Decided to have dinner while waiting for traffic to die down a bit. Doing a search Carbon Grill sounded good. When we got there we were the only customers. Nice little place but other reviews suggested something else and parking for some reason was non existent. Had to park two blocks away! Good menu and prices were fair for these times. Food took a bit long even though it was only us. That is a good thing since it means freshly cooked. Ordered a burger, salads and fried Yucca. Good meal overall. Clean place with outdoor patio along with inside tables. Only complaint was too much plastic used for this level of dining.“

“Love it mane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’“

“picked up some kebab, lula kebab, and potatoes from them about ten minutes ago. Everything was fresh, delicious, and cooked perfectly. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.
Definitely 5 out of 5. I'll definitely be coming back for more. Great job, guys—keep up the excellent work!“

“Pulled chicken and baby back ribs potato salad are the best , friendly staff too“

“Great service n food. Try it out.“

“Such a great kebab and in convient place to“

“If I could give more than five stars, I would! This was hands down the best Korean BBQ I’ve ever had. The quality of the food was incredible, but what truly made the experience unforgettable was the amazing staff.

Our server, Andrew, was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely excited to share the experience with us. He taught us some of his favorite grilling and eating techniques, along with little tips that made us feel so much more connected to the culture rather than just dining at a restaurant. The rest of the staff was just as warm, welcoming, and helpful, creating such a fun and comfortable atmosphere.

From the delicious food to the exceptional hospitality, every part of our visit exceeded our expectations. We’ll absolutely be coming back and recommending this place to everyone we know!“

“Had Nia and Jags Barbecue at the Studio city farmers market! Their bbq is just as good as the bbq joints in TEXAS! I am so glad they are around! If you want real Tx bbq definitely eat here“

“The food was delicious, the restaurant was very clean and beautiful, and the owner was incredibly kind and welcoming. The customer service was outstanding. I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The food was amazing. Got the crispy shawarma with chicken and I was taken for a ride to flavor city. Idk what wizardry they did in the kitchen but I was hooked at the first bite.

The crispy shawarma with beef was pretty good too. It is cooked with a little lamb fat, so it was slightly gamey. Not really what I like, but if you like lamb then you'll probably really like the beef.

I also got a chicken thigh plate. It's your standard chicken plate that you'd get at Mediterranean places. Char on the chicken tasted great as well as the chicken itself. I'm not usually the biggest fan of hummus but the hummus here tasted better than other places.

Next time I'd probably just get one crispy shawarma chicken. It's pretty filling. Can't wait to come again!“

“convenient, and easy on your wallet. the food is quality, and service there is good“

“Such a great local spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and the portions are generous. The grilled meats are delicious, and everything has that homemade Armenian taste that makes the meal feel special. The service is warm and welcoming, and you can tell they care about their customers. A wonderful place for good Armenian food—I would definitely recommend it!“

“Great food! Tried the tri tip sandwich, potato salad, chorizo breakfast burrito and a cookie. all delicious. Definitely recommend! Very friendly staff too. The owner (i didn't catch her name) is sooo great and sweet.“

“My wife and I (I'm Korean, she's Irish American) ordered the real deal galbi (not AYCE) and she was very satisfied. The place was super clean and it was busy but the service was great. I actually thought the best thing I ate for lunch was the shrimp/vegetable tempura. It brought me back to my mom's/grandmom's cooking. I would be excited to go back and try other dishes. It's definitely not as fancy as Park's but definitely a quality, authentic KBBQ restaurant.“

“The best FALAFEL IN USA .“

“My wife and I ate Here for the first time, Food was AMAZING and service for our server Oliver was even better then the food! A++++ we will definitely be back“

“Very generous. Love the food.

I didn't post a picture on my first review. I keep coming back and today I ordered their vegetable lumpia. I barely see this big lumpia nowadays on other restaurant; I'm really happy. Excellent service and nice people.“

“Classic valley restaurant. I come just infrequently enough to know the food hasn’t changed much if at all over the years. I’ve done to-go a few times and it’s just the same. Sometimes it’s a little warm up front, sometimes it takes a while if it’s busy. But it’s worth it when the food comes.“

“Tried a sample of "Breathe" from the Crooked Path and it was lovely! I was kind of mad I didn't have more of it.“

“I picked up a large order of khinkali, cheese khinkali, potato vareniki and some salads. Everything was amazingly delicious. I was in Georgia last year and honestly the khinkali from Gev’s was just as good if not better than what I had there. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.“

“Outstanding food, baby back ribs fall off at the touch, no frills menu, it’s a bbq joint, if you’re looking for Foo-Foo items ? Wrong place, simple menu, something for everyone, friendly staff, family owned. Outdoor dining, live music on occasion, takeout and pickup available…. Hole in the wall, rustic and comfortable, it’s really a unique inviting establishment“

“love everything food is the best“

“This place is pretty good for quick food similar to L&L BBQ. The food came out quick, was fresh and the people working were nice and friendly. There is limited seating and parking. We ordered the Bento. 1 Teriyaki chicken and 1 katsu chicken. Both came with macaroni, 2 fried dumplings rice and some salad. Overall, this place is yummy for the price! Will come back again!“

“We ate inside at the counter and tried a little bit of a few things off the menu. The sweet & spicy fried chicken and fried chicken dumplings were delicious. 😋🍴 We also tried the bulgogi and spicy chicken bowl and both were so delicious. As a side note, the man that waited on us (not sure if it was the owner or not) was very nice and hospitable. ☺️“

“We’ve been coming here for years, and have never been disappointed. The staff is always friendly and polite. The vegetables and everything are always completely fresh. And with prices these days, this is a great way to get all your nutrients in a meal when you eat out.“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“Just went tonight. The smash burgers are to die for. The staff is the best! Will definitely be back! 💖“

“Food was very delicious and fresh and the prices are very affordable. Stuff were very friendly and helpful, great service 🙏“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“favorite food truck ever! awesome food, more than just tacos and burritos, tri tip is available on everything, sandwiches, tacos, burritos, ribs, wraps, cheeseburgers, etc“

“5 STARS SUPER DELICIOUS EVERY TIME“

“Update, even better this week being setup at the San Fernando Brewery. Hard to beat great beer and Bbq. Added Mac and Cheese this week, did not disappoint. Brisket was great. Perfect Crust and Smoke. Cole Slaw was cut well, light and tasty. Beans had good smoke and we're tasty, although seemed like from a can. The Pickles are really good, you can just about eat them by themselves as I did on the drive home. This is just about as close to TX BBQ that I've had around these parts and a lot better than the closest Chain. Only thing missing are some Onions, different BBQ sauces (ex. Vinegary, Spicy) and a Gallon of sweet tea. Highly recommend this place. I will be back.“

“That’s what I’m talking about!This is some real serious BBQ. I had the two meat combo, which was pulled pork, brisket with mac & cheese, and baked beans. Let me tell you, I’m real picky when it comes to mac & cheese, and this was killer! The baked beans were awesome too. Full of flavor.It’s really hard to find a good barbecue nowadays, and I’m so happy that they are down the street from where I live.Favorite was the brisket ?“

“Delicious! And!! They have A5-Wagyu!! You can definitely taste the difference. Too bad I’m not from around here cause I’d definitely hit this spot up on a regular basis! Staff is friendly, fast, and efficient, and has a great atmosphere for dinner dates!“

“For me, the menu highlights are the grilled meats, jambalaya, gumbo. I saw how the Pit-master grilled the meats. He was very clear about no shortcuts or rushing the process.The jambalaya and gumbo were the best items I ordered today (11/11). I will definitely order these again. They were the best I ever tasted. Perfectly seasoned with high-quality meats, and very good. It’s the best I’ve ever tasted. I’ve only had commercialized gumbo and jambalaya at chain restaurants.I didn’t order any grilled meats. I anticipate the grilled meats being tasty because I tasted some of the meat in my gumbo and jambalaya at it was good and cooked to perfection.The sides were disappointing and I will not order again:Mac and Cheese:A little dry. Too much salt, too much unmelted cheese. Lacked a creamy inside. The bottom and top were just globs of unmelted cheese. Will not order again.Collard Greens:Tasted bland as if from a can. Mixed with spinach and mainly tasted like spinach. Will not order again. I added the greens to my gumbo so I didn’t waste them. Let’s be clear, the greens weren’t horrible. I grew up picking and eating freshly picked collards so I have high standards for greens.Red Beans & Rice:Beans were cold and tasted like they were from a can. Not the Louisiana red beans and rice I was expecting at all. Rice was undercooked with a slight crunch. I added the rice to my gumbo when I reheated it on the stove. I will figure out what to do with the beans.Customer service was good. The lady was very attentive and went above and beyond to ensure every customer was taken care of. She even gave out peanut butter cookies while we waited. Bring your patience as this is a small-scale (lean) food-service establishment.I spent $30 for 2 half orders of gumbo and jambalaya ($10 each), and 3 sides. I probably could have saved a few dollars if I ordered a veggie plate. It was a little pricey for the portion sizes. I charge it to the gumbo and jambalaya which was $10 each and served in 8oz containers. I usually pay $8 for 12oz or 16oz of soup.On a positive note, I got to sample the menu. I know what I like and don’t like. I don’t expect to like every menu item at any restaurant. Bottomline, I will go again.“

“Love this place. Highly recommend.“
