“Great food! Tried the tri tip sandwich, potato salad, chorizo breakfast burrito and a cookie. all delicious. Definitely recommend! Very friendly staff too. The owner (i didn't catch her name) is sooo great and sweet.“

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!“

“Had Nia and Jags Barbecue at the Studio city farmers market! Their bbq is just as good as the bbq joints in TEXAS! I am so glad they are around! If you want real Tx bbq definitely eat here“

“Update, even better this week being setup at the San Fernando Brewery. Hard to beat great beer and Bbq. Added Mac and Cheese this week, did not disappoint. Brisket was great. Perfect Crust and Smoke. Cole Slaw was cut well, light and tasty. Beans had good smoke and we're tasty, although seemed like from a can. The Pickles are really good, you can just about eat them by themselves as I did on the drive home. This is just about as close to TX BBQ that I've had around these parts and a lot better than the closest Chain. Only thing missing are some Onions, different BBQ sauces (ex. Vinegary, Spicy) and a Gallon of sweet tea. Highly recommend this place. I will be back.“

“I walked on a late night this was my first time trying this place out. My girlfriend wanted to try some chicken and shrimp order that she saw online. The service was fast didn't wait long and the restaurant was clean. The staff greated us, was friendly and courteous they answered my girlfriend's questions. The food was made fresh on the spot and was amazing! Great taste and flavor definitely coming back to try other plates.“

“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.“

“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!“

“This is the best bbq I’ve had in Santa Clarita…hands down better than Rattlers or Lucile’s. The service was quick and extremely friendly and the prices are very reasonable. It’s very small, not a lot of in dining area, but they do a lot of carry-out. I look forward to eating there again.“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“My son & gf say the burgers are good. You know the bbq is good. I went for chicken in a lemon garlic sauce & found it quite delicious. Nutty coleslaw a good change from sweet creamy standard coleslaws. Sautéed veggies were a tasty healthy filler.“

“Our waiter ( mario) best person I know. Service was beyond amazing, would recommend to all! Thank you Mr.’Mario for the best service ever!“

“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.“

“The prime rib I ordered for Christmas dinner was the best I’ve had from anywhere I’ve ordered in the past. I ordered a 5-rib roast lightly seasoned and bones cut away/ tied. Thank you for making our dinner the best for our holiday. Will not go anywhere else again. Wish I could post a picture to show how beautiful it came out. Tender, flavorful, perfectly marbled. I made whipped horseradish to top it off! Thank you ! The Quinns“

“Very good food friendly restaurant“

“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.“

“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.“

“We stopped here on the way home from LA. The food is cooked to order, so very fresh and hot! There is a little wait but worth it. If I am traveling through that area again and hungry for small restaurants cuisine , I’m stopping there! I have had Korean Bbque before but this informal way with plates, tacos and bowls is genius. I ordered the sirloin bibimbap. I customized it with no rice just salad greens, the shredded veggies, protein and sweet egg. Two sauces came with it on the side. It was delicious! I’ll dream about that meal! My husband ordered the chicken Katsu bowl. He also really enjoyed it. He is no on the veggies ( rice and protein, sauce) and I am always trying to keep it low carb. The chef was willing to customized kindly with no rice. There are tofu options. There are options for many food lifestyles. Delicious and robust with freshness and flavor!“

“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!“

“Pulled chicken and baby back ribs potato salad are the best , friendly staff too“

“We’ve been coming here for years, and have never been disappointed. The staff is always friendly and polite. The vegetables and everything are always completely fresh. And with prices these days, this is a great way to get all your nutrients in a meal when you eat out.“

“Great service n food. Try it out.“

“The food was great definitely a unique experience when it came to making and prepping the food definitely worth trying and their food portions are spectacular I couldn't finish it all in one sitting thier set up is pretty nice and I as the experience as a 1st time customer“

“If I could give more than five stars, I would! This was hands down the best Korean BBQ I’ve ever had. The quality of the food was incredible, but what truly made the experience unforgettable was the amazing staff.

Our server, Andrew, was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely excited to share the experience with us. He taught us some of his favorite grilling and eating techniques, along with little tips that made us feel so much more connected to the culture rather than just dining at a restaurant. The rest of the staff was just as warm, welcoming, and helpful, creating such a fun and comfortable atmosphere.

From the delicious food to the exceptional hospitality, every part of our visit exceeded our expectations. We’ll absolutely be coming back and recommending this place to everyone we know!“

“Such a great kebab and in convient place to“

“Food was very delicious and fresh and the prices are very affordable. Stuff were very friendly and helpful, great service 🙏“

“This place is pretty good for quick food similar to L&L BBQ. The food came out quick, was fresh and the people working were nice and friendly. There is limited seating and parking. We ordered the Bento. 1 Teriyaki chicken and 1 katsu chicken. Both came with macaroni, 2 fried dumplings rice and some salad. Overall, this place is yummy for the price! Will come back again!“

“Such a great local spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and the portions are generous. The grilled meats are delicious, and everything has that homemade Armenian taste that makes the meal feel special. The service is warm and welcoming, and you can tell they care about their customers. A wonderful place for good Armenian food—I would definitely recommend it!“

“My wife and I ate Here for the first time, Food was AMAZING and service for our server Oliver was even better then the food! A++++ we will definitely be back“

“The best FALAFEL IN USA .“

“My wife and I (I'm Korean, she's Irish American) ordered the real deal galbi (not AYCE) and she was very satisfied. The place was super clean and it was busy but the service was great. I actually thought the best thing I ate for lunch was the shrimp/vegetable tempura. It brought me back to my mom's/grandmom's cooking. I would be excited to go back and try other dishes. It's definitely not as fancy as Park's but definitely a quality, authentic KBBQ restaurant.“

“Yummiest street food ever👌“

“Classic valley restaurant. I come just infrequently enough to know the food hasn’t changed much if at all over the years. I’ve done to-go a few times and it’s just the same. Sometimes it’s a little warm up front, sometimes it takes a while if it’s busy. But it’s worth it when the food comes.“

“love everything food is the best“

“This place is fantastic. You walk in and are immediately greeted and informed how things work. The man inside is very nice and loves talking to everyone that comes in. The food is so good. I got beef and noodles and veggies. Then topped it off with the flavor sauces and garlic. They have a lot of options so you can make it your own. They cook it all right in front of you. I even grabbed a mochi ice cream. Over all I highly recommend this place, a diamond in the rough.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is accessible“

“It’s always fun having dinner here with my family. Everything is great except for the Cheesling fries. The mix of Parmesan cheese with a sweet sauce doesn’t go well together. I was expecting cheese fries instead. That would be a much better menu item“

“Very generous. Love the food.

I didn't post a picture on my first review. I keep coming back and today I ordered their vegetable lumpia. I barely see this big lumpia nowadays on other restaurant; I'm really happy. Excellent service and nice people.“

“I picked up a large order of khinkali, cheese khinkali, potato vareniki and some salads. Everything was amazingly delicious. I was in Georgia last year and honestly the khinkali from Gev’s was just as good if not better than what I had there. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“Tried a sample of "Breathe" from the Crooked Path and it was lovely! I was kind of mad I didn't have more of it.“

“Just went tonight. The smash burgers are to die for. The staff is the best! Will definitely be back! 💖“

“I was taken aback a bit by the virtual food hall, but don't let that deter you. The food is great! Well-seasoned and obviously scatch made. With the exception of the cabbage (seasoned well, just too al dente for our liking), the rice & gravy, mac and cheese, collard greens and BBQ beans were delicious!!! The catfish and fried shrimp were amazing. The service was great (the owner returned my call although I hung up and didn't a message - which means they care). Looking forward to our next meal at MGF!“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“favorite food truck ever! awesome food, more than just tacos and burritos, tri tip is available on everything, sandwiches, tacos, burritos, ribs, wraps, cheeseburgers, etc“

“After the 4th restaurant in Tujunga failed to make good Shawarma, I thought I would have to drive all the way to Glendale for the only good Shawarma I know, that I get from a food truck. I didn't know Shawarma House existed until today. The dine in place is nice and spacious, the service was kind, and for the first time in Tujunga that I know of, this a restaurant that didn't serve dry wraps with no garnishes.“

“Omg the food was fresh and hot good and the service was wonderful“

“That’s what I’m talking about!This is some real serious BBQ. I had the two meat combo, which was pulled pork, brisket with mac & cheese, and baked beans. Let me tell you, I’m real picky when it comes to mac & cheese, and this was killer! The baked beans were awesome too. Full of flavor.It’s really hard to find a good barbecue nowadays, and I’m so happy that they are down the street from where I live.Favorite was the brisket ?“

“never had a bad meal here, I always recommend to all my friends and family“
