I would give it a solid 8/10 the brisket and the picanha steak were the best thing there, Mac and cheese is solid but the potato salad had such a strong pickle flavor so for me it was 0/10, the beef ribs were good 7.5/10 but I would rather get more steak or brisket next time I go.

But I would still come here again it is a bit pricey but that’s...read full review
The food wasn't bad. It was delicious but I feel you pay alot for what you get, very tiny meat portions. the meat was also room temperature and cold and not hot. I will say I really loved the sides, especially the mac and cheese, it was nice and hot. I will say the advertisment and videos from tik tok creators made it seem like you get these massive plates of spread, but no, you get it in a to go box. The food was good, definetly a try it once than move on after the experience....read full review

Gee's Barbecue is praised for its delicious beef-focused menu and friendly service. Customers highlight the brisket and picanha steak as the best items, with some mentioning the tri-tip, sausage, and beef belly burnt ends as standout choices. The dino rib is described as fall-off-the-bone and very tasty, while the beef belly burnt ends are noted for being sweet and flavorful, though fatty. The sides receive mixed reviews; the mac and cheese is consistently praised for being hot and on point, making it a favorite among diners. Potato salad, however, often has a strong pickle flavor, which some find unappealing. Overall, the food quality is considered good, with many customers enjoying the meat despite some experiencing cold or small portions, especially when items run out or are limited on certain days.
While the restaurant offers a pleasant outdoor seating experience, some feel the atmosphere inside is hot due to lack of air conditioning. Prices are seen as a bit high, with portions considered small at times, and some reviews mention that the menu feels fragmented with poor value and average taste, possibly due to overhead costs. Nonetheless, many customers express a willingness to return, especially for the beef dishes and to try other offerings like Papi's tacos, which are highly recommended. The restaurant's halal options and the availability of complimentary water add to its appeal. Despite some imperfections, Gee's Barbecue is recognized as one of the best BBQ spots in OC, appreciated for its flavorful meats, friendly staff, and inviting outdoor setting.
