36 Best Barbeque Restaurants near San Ramon

“Our family has known Peni, Sherry,there kids and grandkids for over 12 yrs now. Once I saw and smelled the bbq over 12 yrs ago I gravitated towards it and have been a huge fan since. Their island q is the best on the mainland and I recommend trying it all since I don’t have a favorite. You can see the passion and love that this family puts towards sharing a little bit of their heritage through their food with all of us. I highly recommend giving it a try and definitely passing the word to others. Spend some time and say hi and you might also have friends for life. Mahalo 🤙“

“Came by at 11:10am on a Sunday and was 14th in line, we were seated by 12:30 which wasn’t too long at all. Service was really amazing, Viet was very tentative to our table and made sure we got all our dishes right away. He even helped by showing us how to cook certain meats and get us some extra chubby sriracha. Would come back again soon!“

“The music was awesome. I loved the workers they were so nice. The food was amazing. I expected that the smoked turkey would be dry but it was incredible, the ribs were so good, the mac and cheese and the beans were so delicious.

“Amazing food including the New York steak“

“Real, honest BBQ. I had the 2 meat combo with brisket, ribs, mac & cheese and potato salad. Best BBQ I have had since I was in Austin Texas! The owner was working hard with the rest of his employees and was the one to take my order. He seemed very nice and was helpful. I work within walking distance so I can see myself becoming a regular here. Canyons is an excellent addition to Castro Valley's food scene.“

“First visit, weeknight, not crowded. Food very good to excellent. Beet trio appetizer superb. Not clear if the 3 dipping sauces were for beets or brisket but good either way. Fiancee had wagyu burger, excellent. I had the combo plate…brisket a tad dry, fried chicken very good, corn bread muffin & cole slaw great. Extensive wine list, top labels. We shared a flight and each had a glass of bubbly. Portion size good … I had leftovers for breakfast. Server Jeff casual but on the ball with advice. Menu somewhat limited, especially for vegans.“

“Really liked this spot. I like the ordering system. I was greeted warmly by the two employees I initially had contact with. I had the biscuit breakfast sandwich, very filling and the biscuit was so good. I had one pancake and man was that delicious! The parking is also a plus. Will definitely come back to check out other options!“

“What a GEM. One of the best restaurants that represents TRUE SOUL FOOD. I was so pleasantly surprised by the obvious care that was put into every dish I have tried. The gumbo takes you back to Louisiana with its generous portions you can’t go wrong here. I highly recommend this place.“

“I haven't been to Kinder's since 2016 and this food is still amazing. The restaurant/shop is almost the same with the exception of more seasonings and sauces. The original sauce is still the best for the Tri-Tip sandwich. I ordered the tri-tip and the precooked ribs; absolutely amazing!! I purchased the sandwich to have as dinner at SFO but it was late; I waited until the next day and it was still amazing after I reheated it. I also found that I was given an extra side portion of the tri-tip meat on the side. I picked up some extra seasonings that I was not able to find at home (Florida). Was it worth the drive from Sacramento? Absolutely just to pickup some Kinder's; I would do it again in a heartbeat.“

“Excellent concept well executed; super fresh juices and smoothies . Love the idea of happy hour for alcoholic drinks. A couple of suggestions-1. Music (vibe) with a speaker outside? 2. Loyalty/frequency program. Today was my first time; will definitely be back.“

“What an awesome little place. The food is pretty damn good, the coffee is even better. It's very affordable, the staff are very nice and hardworking. A nice little environment, I like to study there (there are chargers and free wifi!).“

“A hidden gem in Dublin. Both authentic and traditional, this place delivers a wonderful experience of Korean food. The kimchi tastes truly authentic, made with their own secret know-how that sets it apart from others. Every small dish is crafted with care and discipline, adding to the taste“

The banchan was tasty and flavorful, the beef brisket soup is great, the ddukbokgi has a good flavor, the bibimbap has high-quality ingredients, etc. The staff are working hard and more people should come here.

Parking: Tons of free parking!“

“I came to write a review just about the wonton noodle soup. I didn't have much of the bbq since I was so obsessed with the noodle soup but I'm sure it was delicious since my fiancé cleaned the plate. Man...has it been a while since I've had a good wonton noodle soup! The broth was light but flavorful and the wontons were plump and juicy - just look at the size of the shrimp in that thing! There was a place in Sunset that had the best wonton noodles but shut down after the pandemic... glad we stumbled upon this place!!

The restaurant doesn't appear to be seating customers anymore so you take your food on a tray and sit in the food court.“
