Bad to the Bone BBQ is a restaurant known for its excellent barbecue, offering a variety of options such as tri-tip, brisket, chicken, and sandwiches. The meat is praised for its tenderness and perfect cooking. The brisket is especially noted for being the most tender, melting in the mouth and not tough at all. The portion sizes are generous, and side dishes like coleslaw, mac-n-cheese, sweet potato fries, and caramel bread pudding are highly recommended. The mac-n-cheese is described as heavenly, while the BBQ sauce is a perfect blend of tangy and sweet. Some customers find the ordering process slightly confusing, with the automatic gratuity for online orders being hard to notice, but the manager is addressing this issue. The staff, known for their friendliness and teamwork, contribute to a satisfying dining experience. The restaurant is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking, creating a welcoming atmosphere that makes it feel like the perfect barbecue spot. Prices are on the higher side, but the quantity and quality of the food make up for it. Overall, Bad to the Bone BBQ is recognized as one of the best BBQ places in SoCal, reminiscent of high-quality BBQ found in Nashville, TN.
