50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Rosemead

“Highly commendable service and absolutely stunning set menu! we went here for dinner last night for our Halloween date night! Their wagyu cuts are 100% top-grade and not just random "wagyu" that are below the marks. We tried their A5 and M9 meats, not to mention their salmon carpaccio that is to die for. Their sides are absolutely delicious and smart, one great example is their fried pork buns that is like a spin on soup dumplings. To top it off, you get premium ice cream in the end. Their salad is so good with yuzu and smokey salt, plus you get a chili mix too. They serve the meats fast plus your tablet menu is in front of you so you don't have to keep calling the staff to refill. I give them 9 stars! 🌟 🐄 🥩“

“Happy Hour prices and all day long.“

“Staff was absolutely helpful and kind! The Decor and table set ups looked beautiful and family friendly. We ordered the Chow Fun with Veggies and the House Special Prawns. Chow fun was perfect! When I say it was the best prawns I’ve ever had, it was the best prawns I’ve ever had. They have something special here and I would recommend 10/10.“

“Consistently the best roast duck (not to be confused with Peking duck) even in SGV (San Gabriel Valley). Always juicy, tender, and amazingly tasty. We only take out from this store, but we do it regularly. I have no idea what the service is like or the physical plant, as my wife is always the one to go in to get the duck. Oh, the chicken chow fun dry is also consistently tasty, generous, with tender pieces of chicken. I don't know if chicken chow fun is even on the menu. Most places only list beef chow fun, but if you ask for chicken at Sam Woo, you get a very tasty dish.“

“If you from Hawaii, born and raised like me, then you know you need da kine grindz thats like back home.

Let me do this in proper English now.
I had the chicken musubi..

I also got the Hula Guava pie, and its like a giant poptart, but with guava in it. That's super ono too!

The food is like back home and I eat at a lot of restaurants back home in Hawaii, and ate in multiple restaurants in different countries, and the mainland.

So if you from Hawaii and try the food, you know you know.

“Meet quality really nice to me Good service!“

“Friendly team. Service can be faster!! But as they say bbq is slow“

“Absolutely amazing BBQ!!! Nothing was regular or ordinary. The brisket was so tender and tasty and the Blue Masa Cornbread was to die for! Melts in your mouth! And don’t forget the Cole Slaw which deserves capital letters!! The Mac and Cheese (not like any you’ve ever had!) was comped by our new friend who was our ordering coach and it stole the show!! This place is new and Jensen is a class act and his food is BBQ but kicked up a notch !! Congrats Jensen!!!“

“A total hidden local spot! The staff is super nice and the food is great, though the ribs had quite a bit of fat on them. It's nice that they serve two types of sauces to add more flavor. The seafood gumbo is also amazing.I come here often specifically to get it“

“I went here for the first time on a Monday evening. The service was really good and on point on this day. Staff was always checking on us, always making sure our stove was clean or removing finished dishes. I got us the Deluxe meal. The spicy baby octopus was good. The gyōza dumplings and egg rolls were really good. They have sushi as well. Their menu can be accessed by QR code or you can ask for a physical menu.“

“One of the BEST BBQ'S in Los Angeles!“

“Great place for Korean BBQ“

“If you need quick Mexican food, this is a great spot.

I got the sampler to go, and it was really tasty—well cooked with good flavors. Ordering was fast, perfect if you’re in a hurry.

I’d definitely come back to try more from the menu.“

“Wow… I have been wanting to bring home dinner from Steve’s after work, and I was finally able to time it right. The food was unbelievable!
The flavor of the brisket was perfect and so tender. The twice baked potato was the best that I have ever had. They were very kind when I picked up my food, and the restaurant looked so beautiful inside. I will be back hands down!“

“We enjoyed my birthday dinner tonight at Jakes Roadhouse. The food is delicious and the friendly service was great.“

“Rodney's ribs are the Truth. I moved to Pasadena recently. I've had Q at Dreamland in Alabama, 12 Bones in North Carolina, Franklin's in Austin, Corky's in Memphis and Hecky's in Chicago, and this is some of the most righteously smoked meat I've ever had. Thank you, Rodney.“

“Sakura Grill is a great spot for fresh, flavorful Japanese-inspired dishes served in a relaxed, casual setting. The menu has a nice variety, and everything comes out well-prepared and consistent. The grilled items are especially satisfying tender, well-seasoned, and cooked just right.

Service is friendly and efficient, and orders are handled quickly whether you’re dining in or taking out. The atmosphere is simple and comfortable, making it easy to enjoy a laid-back meal. Overall, Sakura Grill is a solid go-to for dependable, tasty food with good value.“

“Excellence Test is seriously one of the BEST Hong Kong–style cafés in the entire SGV — maybe even all of SoCal! The moment you walk in, it feels like stepping straight back into Hong Kong. The flavors, the vibe, the comfort food… everything hits perfectly.
And the BBQ duck? Absolute showstopper. Crispy skin, juicy meat, packed with flavor — easily one of the best I’ve had outside of Hong Kong. If you love authentic Hong Kong café classics, this place is a MUST. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!“

“Bbq Pull Pork Sandwich With Potato Salad Was Delicious. I Will definitely be coming back to try the brisket sandwich next. 😊“

“This was the best chicken I’ve ever had in my life. How? How does it get so crispy and juicy and savory and delicious? The short ribs and bbq was incredible too, so was the musubi. But I was so full and I couldn’t stop eating the freakin chicken. I feel so thankful.“

“I can’t believe I have finally found a barbecue place in Whittier worthy of going to at least every other week. The meat is amazing. The flavors are phenomenal , The meat is juicy and tender. Definitely stop by if you’re needing some good barbecue..“

“Great BBQ Food and Entertainment“

“Came by with my son last minute they were almost sold out (says a lot about how amazing there food is) so we grabbed what they had left bbq beef ribs mac and cheese and smoked beans….you guys the food was beyond AMAZING i love bbq but this particular spot 10/10 my son is a picky eater i got him his own plate he devoured the ribs and mac and cheese. I highly highly recommend do not listen to the few who gave negative reviews because you will definitely miss out. The service was amazing very nice and patient with us. Too bad i cant post a video because the portions are HUGE !“

“I've been craving skewers and this place hit the spot!! We got their early around 6pm and there was no wait. Got seated right away.

We ordered the beef, lamb, and chicken skewers along w some buns, golden soup and topped it off with dessert durian pizza.
I couldnt give it a 5 stars for the food because I felt like the lamb skewers could have been better. There was a lot of fat and being that the skewers are very small, each bite should be meat of lamb not fat. But overall the food was good and it tempt my craving.

The price overall was high. I managed to rack the bill over $150 n that's just with 3 of us. So be prepared. 😄“

“I dropped by to try the skewers. I ordered a pitcher of beer to go with them. I got the beef vessel, tendon and intestine as well as the lamb, pork belly and chicken gizzard. It was fun watching them rotate on the grill automatically. They have some games you can play to win prizes.

The service was good. I think there was mainly one person handling the tables and he was very efficient.

There's no parking lot. I had no issues finding free parking in the neighborhood.“

“What an amazing local find! The BBQ was incredible, but the service from Michelle really put it over the top. She was so polite and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of the whole time. If you love a great 'mom and pop' restaurant with a welcoming vibe, you have to check this place out!“

“Thank you very delicious Margarita and family“

“Great service and great food“

“Didn't know they had more than one restaurant in the L.A. area. This is the second one we tried and it didn't disappoint, it was just as good as the first time and second times we visited the Koreatown location. The service, the food, everything is great.“

“I had the catfish and it was great . You have to eat it with the special sauce he has . DD was just outside with his meat smokers and jamming some amazing tunes. What a great guy and I will definitely go back for more. 5 big stars“

“We are BBQ folks. We smoke our own and have traveled the country trying different spots. There is so much that goes into BBQ. For those of us who truly love it; it's an art form and science of cuts, color, bark, brine -- the whole deal. We've experienced much of the local (Southern California) flavor and have found a few spots that excel. We moved up to Pasadena recently and were Yelping to see if there was a BBQ spot up here that we could try. When we came upon Mission I was skeptical. It didn't make sense that a BBQ spot would do catering and weekend farmer's market stuff. The only way to see if the reviews were legit was to give it a shot. We found the location at the farmer's market tucked away and because we were late in the day, had to pick from the meats that were left. Ribs, brisket, mac & cheese -- and the two sauces they stocked (mild & spicy). Our order was bundled and we brought it home and launched into the meal. Brisket -- soft, moist, flavorful. Brisket is not easy to cook. It can get dry and -- sometimes greasy from the fat. This was none of that. It was excellent -- some of the best ever. 5/5!!! Ribs -- very good. Solid. My personal perfect-preference is ribs that are just a touch less moist -- but we are talking the difference between 98/100 or 94/100. They were solid. Great flavor. Mac & Cheese. Excellent. Texture, color, flavor, taste -- all outstanding. 5/5!!! Sauce. We had a cup of each of their offerings: spicy and mild. Each had a lovely smokey flavor. The spicy had a nice kick without blowing the back out of your throat. Again -- this is a little nitpicky, but we find the perfect sauce to be a touch less sticky. We've had great first meals and horrible second meals at certain spots and horrible first meals and great second meals. We like to try the food several times before writing reviews so we ordered again for another experience. This time we added baked beans, burnt ends, and smoked chicken to the meal. Second time was exactly as great as the first time. Everything was solid, solid, solid. Now -- the thing that gives Mission six-stars is the folks behind the food. These people are dedicated to making a contribution to the world through food as few are. They are kind, generous, dedicated -- truly amazing!!!! Judith and her family are the kind of folks I want to invite over to have the food we just bought from them!!! Wonderful, wonderful people!! Thank you so much Mission!!!! We are dedicated fans and followers for as long as you make food!!!“

“Tasty food, generous servings, below average prices. My wife and I had the roast duck noodle soup. Tasty duck, lots of nice noodles, I think it was Chinese broccoli cooked tender. Broth was okay. Lots of takeout traffic. Not where I would take a first date, run down. Service was okay. Decent parking in the lot. I'd go again for the food. Takeout is ideal. Lots of other menu choices to try. Discovered this through Vic and Jeff's food blog on YouTube.“

“The curry and masala are amazing at the Fullerton location! I will be back this week for lunch. Oh, and ordering online was so easy :) thank you!!“

“Its my wife's birthday so we wanted something GOOD and memorable. Went to Nancy's for dinner and it was so good! Horiatiki, humus and barbecued shrimp. Pita, fresh. Humus tasty. Horiatiki delicious. Shrimp perfectly cooked and delicious. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESSES - chains are fine, but local eats means the money stays in the community.“

“Flavorful & JuicyStopped over to pick up a little BBQ. Yum, yum.Tri tip, ribs and chicken.Yes, try the chicken it falls off the bone totally juicy and has an excellent flavor (tip: you don't need any sauce) it's great.Tri tip is juicy and you get good chunks.We got 2 sides mac n' cheese (thumb size noodles and plenty of cheese. Also a side of potatoe salad, its chunky with black olive pieces, egg pieces and quite creamy. I don't know the recipe but it's good and home made.Giant barrel smoker.

“los de costilla uff 😋😋“

“Every dish was delectable, and great service! We all had a fantastic time there! Definitely will be back, and for celebrations.“

“The food is always Delicious!!! Staff is Great. Always Worth the Visit .“

“This our first time here. We came at almost closing ( 840pm) but the employee was really nice to accomodate and still help us with the food. We ordered a combo 2 for $29 ( only online) n got it to go since they almost close. The food came out hot and portion is generous, they gave a lot of meat and sides r delish. For a bbq chain this is really good quality. Fries r crispy n well seasoned, mac cheese was good, bbq sauce was delishhh. The toast was soft but crunchy at the same time, very buttery. The meat is so juicy and tender and soft fall off the bone type. I couldnt finish my plate in 1 go n i was pretty hungry! Definitely will be back again :) 9/10“

“This has become my favorite Chinese BBQ place recently! Very authentic and their skewers are always fresh and fragant with their charcoal grilled fumes. Their grilled fish is one of my favorite dish as well, comes with sorted veggies in it, fish was very fresh.“

“I’m a weekly regular at Hungry Bird — and honestly, it’s earned every single visit. The hand-pulled noodles are incredibly satisfying, and the charcoal-grilled skewers are some of the best I’ve had. Everything I’ve tried has been consistently great. Highly recommend — just go!“

“Had this place bookmarked for a while and finally went to try it out. Skewers were quite yummy and they had a wide selection. They cook it and bring it to you. Flavors were good and meat not overcooked. The cucumbers were good and hubs really liked the shredded potatoes, but we really enjoyed the lamb dough drop soup! It was a good grease cutter lol and delicious too! Very different! Was extra good when I squeezed some lime into it. I loved the ambiance, the constant changing scenes kept me entertained! There were 8 projectors lol. Seats were comfy too! Open late and quite a popular place. — at XinJiang BBQ.“

“Tastes absolutely delicious and exactly the same as it did 30 years ago! Teriyaki chicken, order the #1 and you'll be happy!“

“Had the shrimp vermicelli shanghai style noodles, which I highly recommend. The service was good, the food is yummy and inexpensive. We dined in. The restaurant is non-descript and they accept cash only, so just be prepared! Perfect Chinese food!“

“Got seated around 16:50, wanted to get the Lunch special but I was worried since it was getting close to 5pm. However, the lady was really nice and let me get the lunch special so I was quite pleased. Great service! The food also tasted great and was of great quality. I would definitely recommend others to come dine here, especially during the weekday lunch special (11am-5pm).“

“I love it enjoy so much I wanna more“
