50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near San Pedro

“Five stars for the best customer service I have ever experienced...family owned and operated they make sure to let every customer know their business is appreciated...They will even give you potatoe nuggets to snack on while you decide what you want to order. I recommend the fried chicken, gumbo, and jalapeno poppers. You can even order a deep fried turkey for home during holiday season which is superb.“

“it was delish i had the fiery chicken yummers“

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

“The BBQ baked beans are legit!! Big chunks of meat in it and veggies!! Yum!!“

“The wings were perfectly cooked and they have lots of variety flavors. Perfectly crispy on the outside, nicely seasoned, and super tasty wings. I tried a lots of flavors and everything was fantastic. They were both incredible. The sauces were rich and coated every wing perfectly. Can't wait to come back and try other flavors.“

“I came here with my three kids, and we all had an amazing experience. The quality of the meat was outstanding so fresh and flavorful! The service was great, and the atmosphere made our meal even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Came in for taco Tuesday and got a great deal for the price.

2 Smoked Brisket tacos which were maxed out portion wise, Rice, beans, chips and an Horchata to wash it all down for under 10 bucks…

Can’t beat a deal like that with a stick even if you wanted to! Not to mention the tacos were great, the Brisket was tender and very flavorful. Staff were very friendly as well.

If you’re looking for a good taco Tuesday deal don’t sleep on Hole Mole.“

“great place! top to bottom“

“One of the best all you can eat korean bbq places in torrance! Been here since I was a kid and my family enjoys eating here for ayce. The place is on the small side but can serve many groups as once, I have been reccomending this place since my early highschool years and even to this day. They have a lunch menu hours which are cheaper than dinner times of course. They also have an A or B menu, if you are gonna come try this place I reccomend trying the B menu set at least once, as their premium ribeye, galbi, and many of their special selections. Their service is very attentive and very easy to talk to, don't forget their salad bar and the steamed eggs which do not taste burnt like other places!“

“Best BBQ Pork Sandwich ever!!“

“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.“

“The food is an upgrade from Ono Hawaiian BBQ. Treat yourself American! Shootz!“

“We sat outside and the umbrella didn't shade all of us. The waitress was so nice to move our table and the umbrella so we could all fit in the shade. The food and service were fabulous. Their drinks are yummy .I'll definitely go back.“

“So, I'm really picky when it comes to food and the last Korean BBQ place I went to made me not want to get Korean BBQ anymore. But we tried this place and it was excellent. The meats were good quality and tasty. They had just the right sauces and salts, and came around to help us organize and cook the meats. The side dishes were so good and when they ran low, the owners would fill them up again so we were never low on sides. Three bowls of rice was just enough for three people. We ordered the $88 meal which was plenty for three of us and would have been good for four. Will definitely go again.“

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

“The food was very delicious and the staff was very attentive - even if there was a struggle to hear properly. Good options and very kind patient staff

Vegetarian options: They have some side dishes, and a policy to not charge full price if youre not eating meat.“

“For a small cafe, this place is great with quick service and good food. My go to order is usually the Pokerito (Sushi Burrito wrapped in Nori). I usually order it with the Salmon Spicy Mayo. I've also had the Chicken Adobo Plate, Loco Moco, BBQ Pork Belly plate, grilled Salmon and Bone in Beef ribs (the larger ones) with mac salad and rice to die for. Flavors are consistent and I like the way they season the Mac salad.“

“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. 😊💯“

“excelente Servicio.. Satisfecha 👏❤️“

“The chicken is always BOMB-TASTIC from this place, & they are speedy quick, too! I placed a pretty good sized order, less than an hour before their pick up "window" closed, & they still had it ready to go in plenty of time! They are always so sweet when I go to pick up, too, & will always give me extra pickled radishes! YUMMM! The savory aroma of their amazing chicken filled my car on my short drive home, & I couldn't wait to dive in like a,SAVAGE! :-P Thank you, b.b.q. chicken, for satisfying this cavegirl's craving tonight!

Parking: It's in a strip mall with other restaurants, on a busy corner, & I have seen the lot packed during the day. Parking is tight there during the day, & due to the busy corner, it's tough to get in & out of. However, I normally do my b.b.q. chicken runs in the evenings after half of the businesses in that strip mall have closed, so parking isn't an issue!“

“The meat was good and tender. Service was exceptional. However, they could use some coaching on preparing the sides. They were a bit lackluster in taste.“

“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.“

“Take your bowl and stack it as high as you can... Press the food down so you can fit more in, because they love happy customers here! Food is fresh, delicious, and they cook it right in front of you.We didn't want noodles because we're gluten free (wheat/grain free) so they offered to add more meat and veggies. Who wouldn't want that?Gladly would I give greater praise, had I more than two thumbs!??“

“I've tried just about everything on the menu at Shady Grove Foods and nothing disappoints. I can close my eyes and put my finger on the menu and I would be happy wherever it landed. I had Sticky Bones again tonight and I'm as thrilled as the first time I tried them and all the other times I've had them and in fact I feel like tonight's were the best ever. I seriously enjoy their food and hospitality. The hardest part is driving back to Cal Heights without opening the box and start eating. Compliments to the whole staff and guys cooking it up in the back. It's about to get even better real soon. I can't wait. Stay tuned. . . .“

“First time here and food was so good! Best pad Thai I’ve had in years and everything was so fresh. The Pad Kra pow was delicious and yellow curry was so fresh. Beef ribs were so tender and good portion size as well. Also you must try the iced coffee. It was so good I got one to go.“

“el mejor restaurant de comida Koreana.... regresaré!!“

“I've come here quite a few times and every time. I am greeted with a smile. The team look like they're working hard especially the ladies who decided to clean the tables off and all that good stuff. I appreciate the attention to detail.“

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

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

“Best chicken sandwich I've ever had. stopped by with my friends for the first time and definitely will return.“

“Sei-Ko-En is a Japanese yakiniku restaurant in Torrance, Los Angeles. The restaurant is simply decorated with promotional menus and posters. Ventilation is not the strongest, so expect to be smelly after the meal. Servers are friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Food is reasonably priced and of good quality. The crunchy Bean Sprouts (USD 8) and Minced Raw Beef (USD 12.50) are both refreshing. Highly recommend the silky-smooth Raw Beef Liver (USD 12.50), which will rock your palate! Don’t forget to order the Mega Mug Sapporo Premium Beer (USD 12) to go with the juicy Kobe Style American Wagyu Prime Rib (USD 22) and flavorful Kobe Style American Wagyu Tongue (USD 22)!“

“The service was exceptional. I told the cook that it was my first time there and didnt know what seasoning to put on it so he did it himself after asking me what I liked. He seasoned it perfectly. Very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious. They also include a side of rice and bread. 10/10“

“Walked in for the first time and wasn’t sure what to get, the cashier made a few suggestions and I quickly knew what I wanted. The Food and Service were top tier ! I got the Gyoza w/ Don’s Special Combo & man was it amazing !! MOST DEF coming back !“

“My sisters and I came from Bakersfield just to try his BBQ, let me tell you well worth the trip, worth the price. Especially extremely grateful that he accommodated our needs for seating. Very welcoming, polite, funny, and great customer service. Thank you once again!! We will be back with the whole gang next time!!😉“

“The food is just absolutely amazing. You feel like you’re eating at family’s house because you can taste the time, effort, and love that goes into cooking every single thing. But I’ll tell you, it’s Robert Earl’s wife that’s the featured item here. She is genuinely sweet and caring and truly wants you to love their food. We enjoyed talking to her during our visit. The portions here are massive. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth, believe that. Overall, great place, and I wish I lived closer. I wonder if they could deliver to the east coast? Haha!“

“Hands down the best spot in LBC for BBQ! We got the tritip, brisket, sausage and beef ribs and hoooooweee! It was all good, down to the last bite.“

“The steamed cypress tree was so neat and delicious that it had the best light taste that was more Korean than Korea.

Vegetarian options: You can steam the abundant vegetables in a cypress wood steamer and dip them in the sauce. The brisket is especially thin and soft, so this is the best restaurant that anyone of any age can enjoy. Highly recommended!

Parking: Ample parking is available right in front of the yard.

Kid-friendliness: It's clean and the table itself has a private partition.“

“Yamaya Japanese Wagyu & Grill is a Japanese yakiniku specialist in the Torrance area. Ventilation is not bad, but expect to get smelly. The dimly lit dining room is clean and tidy. Servers are friendly, professional and accommodating. Corkage is US$ 25/btl. Food is fresh and of great quality. While side dishes such as Moyashi Namui (US$4.8) and Green Salad ($5.8) are refreshing, the different cuts of wagyu are simply delicious! Highly recommend the crunchy Chef’s Cut Tongue (US$42.8), the juicy Premium Short Ribs (US$ 34.8) and Outside Skirt (US$ 29.8).“

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

“First timer here… will definitely be coming back. Actually I was here at opening and I’ll be back for lunch with the whole family. Small plates are pretty filling. Hope this gen sticks around for a long while. Don’t mind the 30 minute drive.“

“I’ve eaten here(well, I’ve never actually eaten inside the place), but, I’ve ordered take out on work days when I didn’t pack a lunch, and I’ve also ordered Bibingka for a get-together or two, and always had great results! Chicken, Beef, or Salmon Bowl? Can’t go wrong either way! Their Bibingka is delish, as well!“

“?? PHILIPPINES (via Eat the World Los Angeles) - The lechon belly combo ($14.99) is what unlocks that shining cebuchon you see when you walk in. A section is cut off the roll and hacked down into smaller pieces that includes everything from ultra-crispy skin to meat to soft silky fat. A combination of all of these in your mouth at once is the sweet spot that causes your eyes to close and a string of m's to verbalize.“

“Haven't tried it yet, but I've seen great reviews online and will definitely go when I get a chance.“

“Japanese no shoes table experience“

“This Hawaiian restaurant is managed by a nice Hawaiian and caring female manager. The food is authentic and is cooked fresh daily, and the prices are just right and reasonable.
Try the Chicken Bowl, which comes with brown rice and a large drink for only $8.75“

“The Dragonfly Thai is a local takeout/ eat -in establishment. Hubby and I ordered two different dishes. His was flavorful and well-received (Thai Kung Pao). Mine, Pad Thai with tofu, was rather bland and I needed to keep adding additional sauces to enhance the noodles. I ordered extra vegetables (paid extra) - and frankly it was hard to see what were the extra veggies and which were the ones that came with the dish. The staff were very kind and business was busy. I would go back - but not order the Pad Thai.“
