“This BBQ spot is an absolute gem! The flavors instantly took me back to a real backyard cookout-the kind where the grill master knows exactly what they're doing. The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender, the pulled chicken and pork were packed with rich, smoky goodness, and those rib tips?
They fell right off the bone like they didn't even stand a chance! And let's talk about the sides-everything tasted homemade, like something straight from a family gathering.
The cornbread was soooo delicious-sweet, buttery, and the perfect complement to all that smoky goodness. And the sweet potato yams? Bomb! Rich, caramelized, and full of that perfect sweet, buttery flavor. If you love top-tier barbecue, do yourself a favor and check this place out. You won't regret it!“

“We stumbled upon the Swiss Grill at the Vista Farmer's Market and it was just amazing! I ordered a whole chicken, it looked so good just rolling in front of my eyes. The meat is very tender and juicy, the skin is of a crispy golden brown - yum! I am actually from Switzerland myself and let me tell you this food made me feel right at home. The potatoes were both soft and crispy with the perfect amount of seasoning. I also had a pleasant chat with the owner Daniel who lived a few miles from my hometown - so we ended up talking about stories from back home!“

Owner was super friendly and welcoming. I got the mix BBQ plate and it was perfect. All the meats were flavorful and cooked tip top! Not to mention large portions. Extra side of macaroni salad was definitely worth it.

Will be visiting again soon and highly recommend for good Hawaiian BBQ 🤙🏼“

“We visited this place last weekend. It was our first time there, and food was great. Luckily I looked at their menu ahead of time. We got there around lunch, server that greeted us upfront asked us what ayce menu we wanted. Sat down already ordered our drinks and was wondering why the lunch special is not available anymore, luckily the table beside us confirmed they do have a lunch special and shared there menu. When I asked the server why we never get offered that, his reason is they are out of the menus. Atmosphere is a 3 cause it was hot. The a/c was down or wasn't working and they only had a small fan and the doors wide open to circulate air in the restaurant. Food made up for it and we'll give them another shot, someday.“

“First time walking into this spot, and let me just say—what an experience! I came in to try the oxtails, and they did not disappoint. The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender, flavorful, and not overly fatty. Paired with the Jamaican rice, which was soft and fluffy, it was perfection.

The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff shows true hospitality, making you feel right at home. I also tried one of their Jamaican drinks—refreshing and packed with flavor, definitely a must-have! The empanadas with spiced meat had just the right kick to balance everything out.

If I had one small critique, it would be the plantains—I think if they made them fresh to order, it would take them to the next level.

Overall though, this place is a gem in Oceanside. Pricing is fair, portions are generous, and the food quality is phenomenal. For me, it’s a strong 9.2/10 and an easy 5/5 stars. If you’re craving authentic Jamaican food, this is THE spot to check out!“
