16 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Pinole

“This place has been here for years my mom had dinner here before I was born then she took me here for my 10th and 17th birthdays now I'm coming here to celebrate her's even though she's not around anymore. They have the best staff and food I have had and driving up you can smell the food I'm so happy it survived covid.“

“I ordered 22 individual meals for a company lunch. The food was prepared, boxed, and ready to go in less than an hour. They made sure to write who's food belonged to which employee on their boxes, and went over my checklist with me more than once to make sure nothing had been missed.

My staff loved the food and I received many comments about how good it was. I would rate this business higher than a 5 if I could.

Highly recommended. Thank you so much for your help!“

“Really great food. Cool building. The Classic Burger was Classic. Friendly staff. 5 star!“

“These have to be the best ribs I’ve had in a long time.“

“Cashier is very friendly and professional. She makes me so comfortable. I came once and felt so welcomed I came back for the last 4 Days straight. I even came yesterday Tuesday but you guys were close. Keep up the great Customer Service. 🙏🏾“

“This place is excellent! I agree with all of the positive reviews. We had excellent service. Excellent portions. No problems with 2nds or 3rds or 4ths. WOW! When the grill got to much chard and started to smoke a little they would change it for a fresh clean one. They changed ours about 4 or 5 times. I'm sorry for anyone who had a bad experience. Go during a weeknight. Ask for a different server. Try not to waste or overcook your food. Be courteous and patient to get a table. But just keep ordering every chance you get. Keep the food moving on the grill and order wings, dumplings, sushi and calamari etc. Work with them and they'll work for you! Happy grilling!“

“Excellent food , as good as any Hawaiian BBQ“

“The smoke salmon is absolutely delicious“

“I ordered using Uber Eats.
We ordered Lemon Chicken, Chicken Katsu & Masubi and one other item. I clicked yes to include utensils and napkins and I even added in the notes please include utensils, chopsticks and napkins.
Since I am staying at a hotel these were needed. The hotel had no picnicware so my son and I walked to the store down the street to buy some. Got back to cold food that wasn’t in containers that could NOT be heated in the microwave and discovered they didn’t include soy sauce.
The Mac salad was perfect. The rice definitely needed soy sauce. The flavor of the lemon chicken was great even though it was room temp. The katsu lost its texture in the time it Took to get utensil unfortunately.
I’m not trying to be petty over utensil but it really made for an unfortunate experience.“

“We went in 7/11 to watch Norway and England game and it was very fun. The food was delicious. I got the brisket sandwich and mmm mmm mmm it was TENDER. The service was wonderful. I want to genuinely thank the waitress who literally walked me to the bathroom so I wouldn’t have to face the throng of passionate fans. That was above and beyond and just very kind. Thank you. Go, England!“

“My dad used to drink there in the 1980s and the Asian husband and wife couple who owned the bar bought him a last drink and told him never to come backThe bar was closed for about 10 or 20 years in the 1990s and the 2000sMy favorite part of the bar is spinning the wheel and trying my luck at free drinks cuz half the time it's a l**** deal but half the time it's a winner deal it's a nice bar most people are really coolFor a while they had a 8-bit Nintendo system and I'd play Castlevania and Super Mario Bros over and over again but they do have some arcade games and pinball games really nice“

“I'm not a fan of spicy food, but I am a fan of flavorful and delicious food! This place is the real deal, and worth EVERY dime spent. I can customize my food by asking for nothing spicy... and they comply! However, I must say that I'm addicted to the Crab Fried Rice!!! I don't have to customize any of it. I was even brave enough to order the Tom Tom soup which is Hot and Sour soup. This soup is a tasty medicinal soup for any stomach issues or cold and flu issues. What I like the most about this soup 🍲 is that my feet are dancing while I am basking in this flavorful dish You owe it to yourself to get wrapped up in the warmth and and flavorful aroma while healing your body and soul. I call this soup "A vacation in a bowl" and I challenge anyone to step up and try it, You'll thank me mm for the recommendation 😎👍. Toodles to all as I send you blessings, peace 🕊️ and safety to you and your loved ones ☺️🙏😎.“

“Been going to this location frequently and every time it’s been great. Very fast and friendly service. BBQ chicken is freshly made and perfectly seasoned every time. Nice cuts of meat. No fat. Very clean restaurant. Small dining room but they do have outdoor tables as well. Turn over of tables is pretty fast. If I’ve wanted to sit it’s never been an issue. If you want a view while you eat, drive down the hill and park at 9th street or the Benicia Pier and enjoy your meal.“

“Went to dinner with a few of my lady friends after seeing a show in the city, this was the perfect ending to a phenomenal day. I had the crab cakes and they were delish, a couple of people in my group had the fried chicken/fried catfish combo and that looks delicious as well. I highly recommend Lizzy’s Cajun Cafe.“

“Moku is great hawaiian BBQ! BBQ chicken and the fish combo are is awesome! The chicken katsu is also tasty. I really appreciate how they let you sub your rice for extra macaroni or extra vegetables - other hawaiian BBQ joints do not allow substitutions.“

“I’ve always ordered the teriyaki plate with Mac salad and did order something for others and this place makes the best Hawaiian teriyaki reminded me of the flavors back home on Hawaii and there is a Moku’s back home and I appreciate the food from Moku Berkeley! My go to when I’m craving for food back home!!“
