50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Sherman Oaks

“My experience was at Gyu-Kaku Kapanese BBQ Sherman Oaks, CA. Restaurant was clean, staff was courteous, attentive & professional. Food was delicious, fresh & complementary as a menu.“

“Great Bbq! Great service!“

“Just finished a fabulous dinner at the DTLA location! We got the Block Bowl and a Combo plate with Brisket and Pulled Pork - everything was delicious, the service was really warm and friendly, and the whole vibe was great! We’ve been eyeing this place for awhile and will definitely be back!!“

“The best quality Korean BBQ I've ever had! We had the butcher's pride 1 and it was the perfect amount of food for two people. It includes short ribs, finger meat, wagyu, and marinated short ribs. There are also numerous side dishes from kimchi to green onion jeon. You may also ask for rice if you'd like some to go with the marinaded short ribs.

With tax and tips, we ended up paying about $100 per person. Is it on the pricey end? Yes. Is it overpriced? Slightly. Is it a good food experience? It was. Would I come back again? Depends on who I'm with.“

“It's down and dirty, proletariat BBQ at its finest. THAT's the secret weapon. Simplicity of design and meats that are properly seasoned, then smoked to perfection, with sauce that's on-point. I grew up eating BBQ. This place rocks.“

“First restaurant I ate in 1982 and the bbq is still great.“

“We ate inside at the counter and tried a little bit of a few things off the menu. The sweet & spicy fried chicken and fried chicken dumplings were delicious. 😋🍴 We also tried the bulgogi and spicy chicken bowl and both were so delicious. As a side note, the man that waited on us (not sure if it was the owner or not) was very nice and hospitable. ☺️“

“Had my motorcycle serviced in the area and decided to walk here for a quick meal while i wait. Yo the food is bomb. I got the pork belly and it was 10/10. The sauce the restaurant had on it was perfrctly sweet and savory. It really hit the spot. I wasnt expecting such a good meal and ill definitely be back here with or without my motorcycle being serviced.“

“Delicious Memphis style BBQ!“

“The owner is amazing and will make sure your experience is top notch. For AYCE they offer more than any other place in ktown I have been too. I mean they have a free ramen bar included in all you can eat for $38! Meats are a notch above other places but the variety of what you can choose is what sells. Awesome decor, feels old school Korean.“

“Great Bbq! Great service!“

“Absolutely phenomenal duck KBBQ. Never had duck for KBBQ and it was decadent. All of the ducks cooks and smothered in duck fat and in the garlic. At the end they made fried rice with banchan and duck fat. It was heavenly. It was perfect for a large group of 10 with their semi-private dining in the back. A must try.“

What really made the experience special was the customer service. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for DELICIOUS and REAL Armenian cuisine. Definitely be coming back!“

“Amazing food, so worth the price as well! The 대창 is so delicious!! I have twin babies and the restaurant was very accommodating to my family & I with our stroller. We really appreciated it since we previously came from a way more spacious outdoor restaurant that gave us horrible service due to us having babies with us. So we left and decided to come to Yangmani instead to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Will be back for the amazing food and wonderful welcoming service from the staff! Thank you!“

“In San Fernando on business. Decided to have dinner while waiting for traffic to die down a bit. Doing a search Carbon Grill sounded good. When we got there we were the only customers. Nice little place but other reviews suggested something else and parking for some reason was non existent. Had to park two blocks away! Good menu and prices were fair for these times. Food took a bit long even though it was only us. That is a good thing since it means freshly cooked. Ordered a burger, salads and fried Yucca. Good meal overall. Clean place with outdoor patio along with inside tables. Only complaint was too much plastic used for this level of dining.“

“Friendly staff and servers. Good selection. Good meat . They seated us right away . Good parking. First time and if I am in the area again, will definitely eat here again.“

“Best BBQ EVER
I’ve gone to other places and always end going back to this place. It’s insane how comfortable they make me feel almost like if I was part of there family music environment and delicious food and. Affordable as well“

“Amazing seafood bbq. The prix fixe set comes with a lot of extras. We ordered the Master Set for 5 of us. We also ordered sea eel and live octopus separately. There’s good parking behind the restaurant. Front of restaurant was a lot of homeless people unfortunately.“

“waitresses went out there way to make sure you were 100 percent satisfied..“

“picked up some kebab, lula kebab, and potatoes from them about ten minutes ago. Everything was fresh, delicious, and cooked perfectly. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.
Definitely 5 out of 5. I'll definitely be coming back for more. Great job, guys—keep up the excellent work!“

“This was unexpectedly phenomenal. I’ve driven past here for years never noticing it tucked away. So glad we went. The woman working the register who I think may be the owner was so nice and the food was the best meal I’ve had in a while. The spicy pork teriyaki was insane. My gf’s chicken was phenomenal. Really big fans now and we will definitely be back.“

“Love it mane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’“

“I found my new favorite restaurant in Los Angeles. PZK BBQ on Beverly Blvd in the Fairfax neighborhood is it.

My daughter took me there for Father's Day, 2026. My go-to order at Korean restaurants is galbi, marinated beef short ribs. At PZK BBQ you can get all you can eat at a reasonable price. It's delicious. Service is quick because you grill it at your table. It's delicious.

The typical Korean side dishes, also all you can eat, are also delicious.

Our server was pleasant and efficient. The ambiance is pleasant. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. The way the restaurant is set up, I couldn't see any way for a party of more than six could eat together. We were a party of five, my daughter, her family, and me, so we were fine.

There's a valet parking station out front, or there's street parking. The restaurant is kid friendly as long as your kids like Korean food.“

“Great owners, long time staff who are really good people. They all care about their food and their service“

“Chose this place because of their STAR rating on google and it did not disappoint! Robert was very friendly and professional! We had the beef brisket and beef rib dinners with salad, potato salad and beans.. the ribs were huge and delicious! The brisket was well cooked and tasty! HIGHLY recommend this place! It was definitely worth it.“

“Whether you visit with family, friends or colleagues, this restaurant is proud to provide you with an outstanding dining experience.“

“What impressed me most was how seriously Sookdal takes quality control. The staff took full responsibility for cooking the meat, carefully checking every piece and making sure it was served at the perfect doneness while still tender and juicy. Everything was consistently flavorful, and their attention to detail made the entire experience exceptional.“

“Best KBBQ ever! They never skimp on banchan - it's full 10 dish traditional banchan versus other gentrified spots that only give 3 or 4, AND it comes with steamed egg! Their prices are very reasonable and best quality of meat of all the places I've tried. The staff is so sweet and everything tastes homemade. My go-to spot!!!“

“Best Korean bbq in Los Angeles. 강력추천합니다.“

“Kid-friendliness: My son LOVEd The ribs. It was actually his first time trying some off the bone and he was so into it! And pickles!! He tried pickles first time here and now he’s def a Fan!

We had ate lunch across the way at the Basecamp, and they had high chairs. Very kid friendly.“

“A Korean run Chinese skewer shop, serving lamb and beef skewers and other Korean/Chinese dishes. Skewers were tender and flavorful. Other dishes and banchan were really good too. Staff was great and basically cooks the skewers for you. The seating area is a bit small and ventilation isn't great so you'll def be smelling like bbq.“

“The flavor is outstanding!! I wish I lived in the area so I could eat it more often. Cooked to perfection with a rub that tickles the taste buds and warms the tummy. So Yum 😋“

“Wonderful place to eat and engage in good conversation because of the atmosphere/setting. Staff extremely polite and friendly. Food is definitely worth the visit !
I frequent the Wilshire location in Santa Monica every time i get the desire for next level Mexican Food . 🏆🏆🏆“

“The best FALAFEL IN USA .“

“If you’re looking for an old-school Korean restaurant with a nostalgic vibe, I definitely recommend this place.
Their BBQ is very traditional as well, but this time we tried one of the hot pot dishes(jeon gol) and everything was delicious, even the side dishes.
Really enjoyed the whole meal“

“Hands down, one of my favorite restaurants in LA. There’s something about this place where the food, ambiance, and service come together to create a wonderful experience every time.

We come here for a special night out, but we also love it for a last-minute hang when a seat opens up and we’re in the mood for a great bite and a beer. Dressed up at a table or in a T-shirt and jeans at the bar, it works.

And Tony, the owner, is a big part of what makes the place so special. He’s incredibly gracious, warm, and always dressed to perfection. There’s a genuine sense of hospitality here that’s hard to find.

Whether it’s a planned evening or an impromptu stop, this is one of those places that consistently delivers a memorable experience. A true LA favorite!

Recommend: Stuffed Shiitake, Ginnan, Chicken w/Shiso, Kushiyaki, Quail Egg and Duck“

“Such a great kebab and in convient place to“
