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

“Great food and staff! You guys rock !!!“

“Our waiter ( mario) best person I know. Service was beyond amazing, would recommend to all! Thank you Mr.’Mario for the best service ever!“

“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.“

“My son & gf say the burgers are good. You know the bbq is good. I went for chicken in a lemon garlic sauce & found it quite delicious. Nutty coleslaw a good change from sweet creamy standard coleslaws. Sautéed veggies were a tasty healthy filler.“

“Very good food friendly restaurant“

“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.“

“I like the pork ribs and all the fixings Try the potato salad“

“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 new favorite place to go. Yummm. Service was amazing, even though they were slammed and running from table to table. Yet they always had a smile and were attentive, when passing so quickly, to stop to get what we needed. Food was fabulous. Tasty and fresh. Definitely worth the wait. Cannot wait to return.“

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

“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“

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

“One of my all-time favorite San Fernando Valley barbecue eateries. delicious cuisine. Nothing on the menu is a bad choice. The Super Bear sandwich was what I had. tasty, particularly with the sauce from the Bear Pit. Cole slaw tastes perfect. I've had their ribs on previous visits, and I'll give them a try the next time. which is going to happen soon.“

“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.“

“Had to leave a review I never leave reviews but this place has incredible shawarma!!. My parents did a to go order and I loved the crispy beef it’s delicious, the meat is halal aswell. I can’t express how much I loved it. I’ll personally come visit soon!. Thumbs up 👍“

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

“The prime rib I ordered for Christmas dinner was the best I’ve had from anywhere I’ve ordered in the past. I ordered a 5-rib roast lightly seasoned and bones cut away/ tied. Thank you for making our dinner the best for our holiday. Will not go anywhere else again. Wish I could post a picture to show how beautiful it came out. Tender, flavorful, perfectly marbled. I made whipped horseradish to top it off! Thank you ! The Quinns“

“Omg the food was fresh and hot good and the service was wonderful“

“The best FALAFEL IN USA .“

“We stopped here on the way home from LA. The food is cooked to order, so very fresh and hot! There is a little wait but worth it. If I am traveling through that area again and hungry for small restaurants cuisine , I’m stopping there! I have had Korean Bbque before but this informal way with plates, tacos and bowls is genius. I ordered the sirloin bibimbap. I customized it with no rice just salad greens, the shredded veggies, protein and sweet egg. Two sauces came with it on the side. It was delicious! I’ll dream about that meal! My husband ordered the chicken Katsu bowl. He also really enjoyed it. He is no on the veggies ( rice and protein, sauce) and I am always trying to keep it low carb. The chef was willing to customized kindly with no rice. There are tofu options. There are options for many food lifestyles. Delicious and robust with freshness and flavor!“

“Great food!! The staff is friendly!“

“Great service n food. Try it out.“

“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“

“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 ?“

“Awesome place. My family ate three of Korean-style BBQ-ribs, pork, beef. All of them were very delicious and Korean style taste. Moderate salty food. Steamed rice was very good. My kids liked and enjoyed all of them. Recommend who looking for nice Korean dishes. The price is also reasonable.“

“My dad orders from Sam’s Eatery all the time, and we finally tried it ourselves today — and wow, it was SO delicious. Going forward, we’ll definitely be ordering from here not just for ourselves, but also for parties and family gatherings at home.

We got the platter that feeds 4–6 people, and it was beautifully arranged with such generous portions. There were different types of meats, grilled vegetables, potatoes, plus rice and salad — everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The meat was especially impressive: juicy, not dry at all, and not overly seasoned so you could really taste the quality.

The pricing is amazing for the quality, quantity, and presentation you get. We were honestly very impressed.

I just wish they were closer to us — but it’s absolutely worth the drive. Highly recommend“

“Such a great kebab and in convient place to“

“Pros:
-has a bathroom
-good brisket
-manager seems friendly

Cons:
-small parking lot, difficult to find parking if the lot is full
-limited choices
-sides including Korean pancake are cold
-gets really smoky“

“This place is fantastic. You walk in and are immediately greeted and informed how things work. The man inside is very nice and loves talking to everyone that comes in. The food is so good. I got beef and noodles and veggies. Then topped it off with the flavor sauces and garlic. They have a lot of options so you can make it your own. They cook it all right in front of you. I even grabbed a mochi ice cream. Over all I highly recommend this place, a diamond in the rough.
