Smoked chicken was flavorful and great quality but unfortunately dry. Not tough, but dry. Small spot nowhere to sit, but the food was ready super quick. I for sure had better but at least the smoke flavor was there. Reasonably priced with big portions too while 95% of the competition is expensive as hell for nada. Definitely will try another meat next time.

This bbq is top notch, just like when i lived in the South! Staff was so friendly and helpful and my takeout order was FAST. The baby back ribs and burnt ends are excellent!

Food was great !! My three year old and 1 yr old loved it. Got the chicken breast (super moist), burnt ends and brisket. Mac n cheese, Cole slaw, collard greens were so good ! I do recommend getting fatty brisket over the lean cause the lean was a bit dry. Seating area is kind of small but there was enough room for a group of 7. You will get your food in to-go boxes and plates on the side (which I prefer. Made it easier to pack up and go ). Will definitely be back! super satisfied w everything !!

Great tasting bbq. I had a co worker party here and everything went off without a hitch. It was plenty of room to accommodate the party and the server got all our requests correct the first time. Great job

Delicious brisket and burnt ends. As good as, or better, than anything I have had in California.

The BBQ is the best I've had while in Cali. Authentic Texas style and the flavor is excellent. Love the kale greens. Brisket and burnt ends, chefs kiss!

This is truly the best bbq in the valley and possibly Los Angeles.

No matter what you get you will not be disappointed. The pulled pork and baked beans are my absolute favorite.

The fries are a pleasant surprise and are also equally delicious.

Truly a one of a kind spot in Los Angeles.

Fierro!

I had high hopes for this place.
But the food is expensive and you don’t get a lot. I’ve had better bbq for the same price with more meat. The service could be better too. The sitting situation is horrible.

The food was good. We got two meats and two sides and it came with two muffins. It was enough to serve two small lunches but one large man could easily eat it all and want more. So if you want a giant pile of meat , it’s not that. No seating except outside in the heat. But everything is packaged to go but it’s better to eat hot

I have been to this place a few times prior to today. Every time i order the cashier has a horrible attitude. She makes me feel as if ordering is causing her such an inconvenience that i feel pressured to hurry up. To make matters worse, the cook who was serving the meats, was grabbing her cell phone in between cutting the meats onto the plates. I observed her using her phone to text and did not wash her hands. She made sure to fill a good portion onto every order EXCEPT MINE! SHE LITERALLY GAVE ME THE CHARRED BURNED END OF THE MEAT WHILE SHE HAD SLICED AND SERVED THE MIDDLE TO THE OTHER ORDERS. SO when i brought it to her attn, she chose to give me less and shut it so i wouldnt notice. The service is horrible! I feel disrespected abd degraded by the way they treated me! I will be back to speak to the owner personally!
