Ribless and chikless meat was extremely dry. Mac salad had a metallic aftertaste, and you can tell the beans are canned. I can see why no longer voted best barbecue the last three years. very underwhelming.

Pork ribs are a must. One of my favorite spot while in San Diego.

Decent place to get a quick bite. The toro sandwich was a little too peppery. The chicken was a little dry but overall decent. For speed and convenience it's a good place for a stop.

Skimped on fries in the loaded El Toro fries. Super skimpy with the sauce. There isnt any hidden underneath that little bit is all you get which is crazy. At least throw a togo cup of sauce in or do better than a tiny spoon of sauce.

Best BBQ in San Diego! Great for families or any size of groups. Food is always fantastic and well worth the wait. Best onion rings EVER!

People around me kept telling me to visit this place, so I really wanted to try it. I finally went, and I have absolutely no regrets. It's impeccable. I wish there was a place like this in L.A. The atmosphere was wonderful, the BBQ was delicious, and the service was friendly and excellent. This is a place I definitely want to visit again when I go back to San Diego. I can see why it's so popular.

Best bbq in my life. Taste is great and much cheaper than those in TX like Terry Black's. Employees are very friendly. Very happy Phil's to be near me.

I visited again after first coming here in 2018, and the baby back ribs are still the best. Honestly, I liked them more than some of the well-known BBQ places in Texas.
Best Ribs in town!!
