Barbeque Restaurants near Pleasanton

“First of all I have to give a shout out to Van. She did a great job as we had a table pull for kids and she always made sure everyone had what they needed. Truly felt like we had a dedicated server.

This was our 3rd visit and the food was still amazing and we will continue to come back.“

“Thank you so much to the staff. The food was comforting and delicious. The banchan was tasty and flavorful, the beef brisket soup is great, the ddukbokgi has a good flavor, the bibimbap has high-quality ingredients, etc. The staff are working hard and more people should come here. My family and I have been here multiple times. The staff were nice enough to take us in 20 minutes before they closed.“

“Pleasanton, CA. Onolicious kalua pork, not too salty, zero fat or grease, it was great! Nice cold fresh Hawaii-style mac salad and rice. Perfect L&L taste.I’m a kamaaina and I stumbled across this L&L while charging my electric car behind the nearby store. Was i super happy to find this!

Parking: Tons of free parking!“

“I came to write a review just about the wonton noodle soup. I didn't have much of the bbq since I was so obsessed with the noodle soup but I'm sure it was delicious since my fiancé cleaned the plate. Man...has it been a while since I've had a good wonton noodle soup! The broth was light but flavorful and the wontons were plump and juicy - just look at the size of the shrimp in that thing! There was a place in Sunset that had the best wonton noodles but shut down after the pandemic... glad we stumbled upon this place!!

The restaurant doesn't appear to be seating customers anymore so you take your food on a tray and sit in the food court.“

“I thought the food is very good“

“I loved my experience here! The food was amazing and the sauces were delicious. Aaron the owner treated us like family. You must go try it- you will go back again. Bring your own alcohol as they are new and don’t have their liquor license yet.“

“Yo, just hit up this spot the other day and gotta say, it was pretty solid. First off, the service was quick – like, I ordered on my phone and bam, food was ready before I even knew it. That's clutch.

They also got this cool little fish tank and some chill lighting that kinda sets a nice mood, you know? Not super fancy, but definitely adds to the vibe.

Now, the food itself was tasty, no doubt. Just a heads-up, it was maybe a tad on the salty side for my taste. And one other thing – they use bamboo skewers instead of the metal ones. Wasn't a big deal or anything, just something I noticed.

Overall though, I had a good experience. Quick, easy, and the place has a cool, laid-back feel. Would def check it out again.“

“I went to this place for the first time last Sunday and ordered 2 pastrami melts, a 1/2 pound of brisket, and a brisket slider with fries. I have to say if you’re looking to treat yourself and your family out with some Fire good tasting food then visit this place. If you want quality then go here. Everything that I ordered was absolutely delicious. The customer service was excellent. Khalaf was very kind and friendly.“

“Our family has known Peni, Sherry,there kids and grandkids for over 12 yrs now. Once I saw and smelled the bbq over 12 yrs ago I gravitated towards it and have been a huge fan since. Their island q is the best on the mainland and I recommend trying it all since I don’t have a favorite. You can see the passion and love that this family puts towards sharing a little bit of their heritage through their food with all of us. I highly recommend giving it a try and definitely passing the word to others. Spend some time and say hi and you might also have friends for life. Mahalo 🤙“

“First time here and everything from service to the food was AMAZING!!!“

“Good food selection. Er did taco Tuesday but will come again for their breakfast!“

“cool place food could be better“

“Came here on a Saturday night and waited around 5 minutes for two of us. Overall we had a great time. All you can eat for roughly $35 a person and you get to cook it yourself at the table. I have had Korean BBQ a few times but the service was outstanding; every single person around was available to answer questions about cooking the meat, changing the grill, menu questions (they have rules for ordering short ribs), etc. Everything is ordered via the QR code including the sides like rice and rice papers, which I actually like because it lets you see what you are ordering, and lays out the quantity you will receive. Some of the meats did come out in smaller portions but it was clearly shown on the ordering menu which we enjoyed as a two person party because then we could try different meats and not get a ton of the same thing. This place is great for first time KBBQ eaters because everyone is friendly and helpful. The owner was especially nice and hands on; he even helped us cook some of the meat we ordered himself. Him and his daughter have great taste in cars as well!“

“Very good food and good customer service, a small wait i even sen j stalin in there.The only down fall was greens had stems WHICH I HATE AND NO JUICE.But food was piping hot,
BANANA PUDDING 1 OUTTA 10 TASTE LIKE WAFFERS VANILLA EXTRACT AND WHIP CREME“

“The mac and cheese is the best, hands down! The brisket sammy is really good too.“

“The best family restaurant in town!!“

“‘Ono grinds at a great price 🍹“

“Dublin is my favorite location for YGF malatang. Food is fresh with wonderful service. They have a great selection of items and they also offer ace king bbq. Love the waitress that works here. She is super nice and friendly. They offer Labubu drawing starting August and I got super lucky!!! I got Loyalty ❤️“

“The food was great, ambiance was very nice as well as the service . James K was a phenomenal server and even cooked our food for us when he didn’t have to, he explained the menu clearly especially since it was our first time there and gave a brief description of the meats we were eating. 10/10 highly recommend and will be back again!“

“We love coming here as a family. The staff are very kid-friendly. The food is good, although the traditional sushi are better than that modern ones. Their traditional sushi and sashimi are very good.Our kids ask to go to Satomi all the time!“

“I only got 8 ban chan, that's still ok. Just the side dishes alone made coming here worth it. The Yuk gae Jang spicy beef soup was very delicious, I use it as a barometer to determine the level of the chef kind of like you can use plain fried rice to determine the level of a Chinese chef.

1/2026- The potato ban chan is my personal favorite, followed up by the bean sprouts and kim chee.

Bright atmosphere, hardly any of the customers here were speaking English. Strongly recommend this place.“

“For a Chinese bbq joint, this is a very solid option here in Fremont. Their roast duck, pork, charsiu pork, and their soy chicken all have great flavor and texture that you expect. Their hot food options are good with a few exceptions. Their orange chickens batter is extremely soggy due to how the batter takes in the sauce but their salt and pepper fish and chicken are a lot of people’s favorites and for good reason. Their dim sum options are brought in from an outside source but despite that, they do the job well for anyone looking for a quick dim sum fix. Overall, for my Chinese bbq needs and even lunch, this place is worth it.“

“We went visit last night. Food was good! And staff were friendly. We will go back again for sure 👍“

“Great meal tonight with the wife. I had the Tofu Bibibop in a stone bowl. My wife had Tofu Soup. Both were fresh and delicious. The side dishes looked and tasted great. Service was friendly too. We would like to come back someday to try more items from their menu. Thanks for the nice evening.“

“the best and services they all kind“
