50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Redondo Beach

“Best bbq I’ve ever had, nicest family serving 💚💥“

“This place deserves to be on every foodie’s checklist. A must-eat in Redondo Beach!“

“I was craving Mongolian food and decided to stop by Red Grill since I was in the area. As a first-timer, the staff was very friendly and guided me through the process, which I really appreciated. The food was good, though not the best I’ve had.“

“I’ve haven’t been to L&L Hawaiian BBQ in a long time because I’ve been quarantined in my house in Hermosa Beach due to the COVID-19 Virus. My friend😎JakeBok and I are definitely looking forward to some Hawaiian dining“

“muy bueno, lo recomiendo al 100, comida koreana.“

“My first time to dine here. Enjoyed the food n I got just enough for me to eat.Food was really good.“

“Great FOOD! Glad to have you so close once again! 🥰“

“Good portions for the price
I ordered the 2 meat plate which came with 2 sides and a drink. It came to about 30 after tax and it was worth it.

The beef link was spicy and delicious, the amount of brisket I got was surprisingly large and the corn was amazing.

The staff were extremely kind and I would definitely come back again.“

“Great brisket and beans. If the owner is seeing this please consider doing Texas Twinkies. You can make it a once a week only thing as a trial run. But with that smoker and flavor of food I’m telling you they would do well. Plzzzzzzzz try it“

“Ribs and chocolate cake, and sweet smashed potatoes and mac n cheese were superb. As was the tri tip salad. Service was the best. I wish I could teach ALL restaurants how to make regular mashed potatoes, especially if they aren't serving gravy. Never the less, 5 stars.“

“It just has that KBBQ vibe. The servers are so friendly and super accommodating. They suggest, recommend, and chat you up. Super cozy.

As for the food, get the signature dish: gobchang (intestines). For a medium, you get to choose three of the four choices: abomasum (stomach), tripe, large intestines, and small intestines. Additionally, you get side dishes, a choice of a stew (kimchi or fermented soybean), corn cheese, steamed egg, and salad. They cook the intestines for you before bringing it out to your table, so that it says warm as you eat. They stir fry the intestines with potato slices, onions, garlic and mushrooms. They really do 곱창 right. We also ordered the beef tartare, since they had posters of it around the restaurant. The beef tartare is definitely in the top 3 of the ones I've tried around OC, NY, and SD. The cuts are thicker than normal and the seasoning is perfect. They don't include a lot of ingredients like other places do, but it just hits better.

It's within a plaza, so there is plenty of parking around the restaurant. This place has become one of my go-tos for gopchang. A++!“

“Really enjoyed my visit to this Bull BBQ restaurant spot. The meat was incredibly flavorful and high quality, and everything tasted delicious. The service stood out too, our server she was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend & I will definitely be coming again very soon!“

“very nice foods all are fresh especially the kimchi“

“This place is incredible. I’m honestly shocked it doesn’t have more reviews or a Michelin star. My wife took me here for Father’s Day and it was just fantastic food. We eat at places all over the world, and we’re in Japan in March, and this was still a super special experience. Thank god it is 10 minutes down the road haha“

“Nahhh… this place actually lived up to the hype. 😭🔥 The chicken was CRAZY crispy without being dry, and every bite was juicy. Soy Garlic is hands down my favorite flavor. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and the sauce is so good I could eat it every day.

The sides were solid too, everything came out fresh and hot, and the staff was super chill. The place was clean and the whole vibe was a W.

Definitely one of the best Korean fried chicken spots I’ve had. If you’re debating whether to try bb.q Chicken, just go. The Soy Garlic is a must. 10/10, I’m already thinking about my next order.“

“So far I have tried the spicy Korean fried chicken bowl, pork belly bowl and japchae, all of delicious. Always fresh. My toddler only likes japchae from an AYCE kbbq in Garden Grove, but she has approved of yours. 10/10 every time. I am always greeted with a smile. I will keep coming back.“

“Ko Ryo Jung Restaurant is one of my favorite spots for Korean BBQ! The AYCE is very affordable, and the quality of the meat is surprisingly good for the price. Everything tasted fresh and well-marinated, and there were plenty of options to choose from.

The servers are friendly, attentive, and quick to change the grill and bring refills. The whole experience felt welcoming and comfortable.

Plus, there’s free parking, which makes it even more convenient. Great value for the quality — I’ll definitely be back!“

“I was craving ribs & collard greens- so we went out and got some! What I was not expecting was the largest rib I’ve seen in a WHILE!
Thank you for explaining your menu to us and for the woman on register for genuinely being such kind people to us and others as we sat to eat. :)“

“I had the beef rib. I pulled the bone out myself… no muscles needed just pull and eat the goodness. Hubby had the brisket. We both were full and happy with leftovers 😋😋😋👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️“

“Honu Poke and Grill is the kind of place you try once and immediately start telling everyone about.

The spicy mayo salmon poke is hands down the best I’ve had — incredibly fresh, perfectly balanced, and packed with flavor in every bite. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The beef ribs are unreal — fall-off-the-bone tender with that rich, smoky BBQ flavor done just right. The beef galbi is just as impressive, perfectly marinated and grilled to bring out that sweet and savory combination. And don’t skip the chicken teriyaki with macaroni — it’s a must-try and such a satisfying, comforting combo.

The Hawaiian drink options are also super refreshing and really complement the food. They balance everything out perfectly and wash down all that freshness, making the whole meal even better.

Another huge plus is that they offer party trays for any gathering or celebration. It’s the perfect option if you want to impress guests with delicious, high-quality food.

Beyond the food, the experience makes it even better. The service is warm and attentive, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the restaurant is very clean and well-kept. You can tell they take pride in what they do. The owner is also incredibly kind and makes you feel genuinely appreciated as a customer, which goes a long way.

If you’re debating whether to check it out — do it. This place delivers on flavor, quality, and hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!“

“I love the BBQ, BUT they were slow to replenish the free condiments. Whether it's two or five people, the condiments, salad, and noodle were the same portion. I wondered why. I asked and they seemed to brush it off. I want more salad and kimchi!!!“

“I've been in Los Angeles California for over 40 years. This one of the far most the most delicious soulfood i have had in years. Gave me a Lil taste of home. I'm sure other dishes are as delicious .“

“a LOT of food for the price. great customer service.“

“The only game in town. Other BBQ places could not shine Woody's shoes.“

“Sakura House is one of the best kept secrets in Los Angeles. A tiny little spot tucked away in the corner of a strip center, you would never guess how special a hideaway, and how delicious the food is! I have been going there for years because the yakitori skewers and other dishes are consistently delicious and very satisfying. If I’m going to order something unfamiliar, it’s always a happy adventure. The service is excellent also. What’s great about this place is, it’s not the “place to be seen“ with people looking down their noses at you.
Instead, it’s a welcoming and casual secret refuge from all that, with excellent food and fair prices, and so comforting it will keep you coming back.“

“😀My first time at Stonefire everything was fantastic and Nick that works there was great and helpful.“

“This is by far the best all you can eat AYCE Kbbq restaurant in Torrance. The staff were incredibly attentive and A++ for the cleanliness of the restaurant. 😊 I really like that most of the common cookable meats are out on the salad bar as well as vegetables, appetizers, all the sauces, fruits 🤤 all readily available to everyone - so you can easily get more. 😉 I highly recommend trying the beef belly, beef rib finger and marinated short ribs each cut was tender and flavorful. The cheesecorn, shrimp tempura, tofu soup and baked mussels were delicious side options and cooked to perfection. 😊💯“

“Still great after all these years A nice variety of meat selections and super tasty.“

“I visited this restaurant with my date for dinner, and we were welcomed with a pleasant attitude and seated immediately. The atmosphere was nice and inviting. We were fortunate that there weren’t many guests that evening, which made the experience very peaceful and enjoyable.

We started with two Asahi beers while deciding what to order. We chose the A5 Wagyu Set, which included tongue, ribeye, short rib, chuck flap, and tenderloin. The set also came with a salad, kimchi, and bean sprouts, and we ordered a few bowls of rice on the side.

Our server was very friendly and even gave us helpful tips on which cuts of meat to start with. Although there was a button at the table to call for service, she would occasionally check in on us to see if we needed anything or were enjoying our meal, which we truly appreciated.

All of the meats were phenomenal, and the portion size was very satisfying for both of us. To end the evening, we ordered Wagyu sushi—one piece served raw and the other cooked—and both were absolutely delicious.“

“Some of the best food I've had. Great value in the lunch special. The potato nuggets are so yummy. The chicken is delicious! And I even sprung for the Spiny Lobster and it was divine. The environment is very warm and welcoming, rich with culture and history. If I could eat here everyday I would.“

“The service was great & the food was soooooo good! I highly recommend the place for anybody to go eat here!“

“muy sabrosa y delicious la comida lo recomiendo y sobre todo El servicio muy bien“

“Delicious, fresh, unassuming. Food is great on its own but then the spices they offer on the side? Great.

Not bodybuilding food, not protein packed, I will say that. But that's probably not why you'd come here; between, meat, veggies, rice, a well rounded meal.“

“I took the risk yesterday and went to pop-up BBQ joint APL. They were working out of a restaurant in Marina Del Rey, so I thought reluctantly to give them a shot. I knew they were expensive and likely not the “traditional” BBQ quality that I grew up with in L.A. I’d seen on social media that APL Barbecue almost always sold out, so I arrived 2 hours early. No one was in sight. I thought I’d gone to the wrong location. I looked around and saw 5 large pallets of fire wood stacked up in the rear of the building. Had to be for the smokers I thought. This must be the right place. I was just super early. About 30 minutes later I noticed 4 pillars of smoke coming up from behind the hedges in the patio area. I failed to look there before and walked over to find 4 large BBQ smokers at work. They were being attended by an African American gentleman. He seemed to know what he was doing. I started feeling a bit better on the potential quality of APL’s BBQ upon seeing this brutha handling the cooking. This was my opportunity to maybe find out the truth about APL’s suitability to my discerning taste buds. I walked over to him and said, “Bruh, lemme holla at you a minute. I’m new to APL and want to get your read on the BBQ. You know that there’s a difference between what some people call good BBQ, and what you or me might consider good Q.” He gave me a wry smile and a knowing nod. I knew he understood what I was cryptically saying. He asked about my regional knowledge of BBQ, from which I explained my preferences for North Carolina, and Texas styles of Q. He said it was more like Texan BBQ, which happens to be my favorite. He said that APL was the “real deal”. I was feeling good and hungry now. They opened the doors at 12:30 pm. A kid started passing out cornbread samples. I happily took one. I’m as critical of the sides as I am with my Q. Cornbread is rarely great and mostly just ok of from most BBQ joints. I took a bite. It was moist and very good with a honey taste but not too sweet. Kind of a cornbread-cake combo. Another very good sign! When I got to the front of the order line, the Bruh offered me a sample of the pork ribs. I took a bite. It was spot on. Had a nice light tug but was very tender and easy to pull off the bone. I couldn’t ID the flavor profile, but liked it a lot. I ended up buying 1 beef rib bone, 1 rack of pork ribs, and some cornbread for a total cost of $150. More than enough for 2 people for a couple of days or so. The beef rib was the best I’d ever had. Tasted more like a very good brisket. The pickle relish was outstanding. I wish I could buy it in a store or better yet get the recipe. Needless to say as a BBQ skeptic and traditionalist, that APL is real and highly recommended even with their high prices. I’m told they will be back in MDR at the same spot next weekend. It’s located Washington Bl. & Abbot Kinney. Go on Sunday when they will also sell smoked cowboy ribeye steaks. I’m told the rack of lamb is also outstanding. Before I walked away with my heavy bag of Q, I saw the the brutha I’d spoken to earlier chopping up some meat. It was loud and crowded in the restaurant. I spoke loudly in a manner I knew would get his attention and said, “Bruh! You were right. Thanks!” He smiled and responded back with the “brutha nod”.“

“excelente servicio muy bien todo“

“Great BBQ food. Chicken, sausage, ribs, sides are good too. Bbq bean I like them. Potato was perfect. Mac cheese I'm not big on it but it was good too. Bbq sauce was a bit on the sour side for me. I like a sweeter taste. Over all my order was worth the price.💯👍 For sure to come again.“

“It was delicious ?? The place was quiet and a bit intimidating but if you check out their website and look over their menu I don't believe you'll be disappointed. The food is a good size portion for the price. I ordered the chicken with tonkatsu. I was hungry and this hit the spot. I think they'd do well if it was a drive thru.“

“Local Favorite. Excellent Customer Service and Delicious Food. Fast turn around. Owner ran / present. *completely different experience from Pho Hana on Hawthorne (Torrance) All staff are helpful, polite and friendly. Highly recommend. My pho craving was satisfied without having to drive all the way out to Gardena / Westminster.“

“Good customer service, delicious food“

“found out this was basically right across the street from our house so my dad and i just went there today for dinner…..food was amazing, definitely will go again“

“It was seriously so good. My friends and I were looking for a place that was open late after playing cards, and this place hit the spot! It was 116 for five of us, and they kept refilling our sides whenever we ran out. Honestly, we've decided this might be our weekly spot to go to! A real gem“

“Good food and friendly staff“

“it's an awesome place to eat and chill with friends“

“Food is not bad. Grill is very small - good for 2 people but not for 3 or more.
Ventilation is pretty bad, your hair and clothes won’t survive the bbq odor with smoke directly hovering into your face most of the time. Some people might actually enjoy this dinning experience, but definitely not for all.
Price is on the higher side, quality is fine, overall value is average.“

“Great service, atmosphere was upbeat and plenty of great food to cook up! Get there early s because place was packed when I left.“

“Lovely service from the waitress. She was very sweet and hospitable. This location is ideal for 2 people. There’s only one large table in the center of the restaurant. We ordered the fried rice and added chicken. We also got the pad see ew and added beef. Both dishes were flavorful and delicious. The only disappointment were the crab ragoons. I’m used to a thicker cream cheese taste with the bits of crab and these had more of a liquid-ish cheese with bell peppers. In all fairness, I personally do not like bell peppers. The ragoons do not deter me from returning. I would definitely come back.“

“Fricken Awesome... At Food Journal Magazine we think every chef should try and incorporate at least one of these product`s in their menu. I have never heard of buffalo chicken egg rolls...mind blowing! Matthew Gregory Editor In Chief Food Journal Magazine“

“My family and I have been visiting this restaurant for many years, even when it was called Big Wok. The owner and cooks are amazing and friendly! The stir fry is always delicious. You can choose your protein & veggies , add noodles with a great selection of sauces. The sesame biscuits are like little pita Pockets you fill up.“

“This was my first experience at this establishment. First, I am satisfied with the welcoming atmosphere set by the representatives. Second, the wait time for the food was short. Finally, the food was A1. In particular, I got the teriyaki BBQ chicken and dumplings. Overall, I am satisfied with my experience.“

“Great Bbq! Great service!“
