Very fond memories of Vivian feeding me as a kid with very little money. A handful of friends and $20 got you a long way. Her generosity is something I have never experienced again. I miss eating here since I moved away!

All I said(no matter how rude) was a wheelchair would not be able to fit. You should've said, thanks for the info. I was trying to save you from the trouble before some American Disabilities Act wheelchair bound activist hell bent on making noise comes by and decides to slap you with a lawsuit. Have a good

I haven’t eaten the food yet and already want to recommend this place. Vivian has one of the most beautiful spirits I’ve encountered. She makes you feel like family as soon as you walk through the door. She gave me a sample of their bbq baked beans while I was waiting and no lie they were the best bbq baked beans I’ve ever tasted. Also the Kool-aid is A1!!! Highly recommend!

Enjoyed knowing supporting small local business with quality service. Fresh brewed cup o coffee was delish. Bbq tri tip sandwich was too.

Quirky little place, owner very friendly. The food was excellent, was surprised how good. Don't know who dose the bbq and smoke. But it was on point, had the ribs and chicken plate. Potato salad, and bbq beans.Going back for the tri tip sandwich.

The food was good. I was welcomed to play music there several years ago. But the owner won't make time to set a date to play and I'm not interested in playing here for free and so much hassle.

Great spot for BBQ. The TriTip sandwich was great. Thats Vivian (owner) for the selection.

Omg! Loved in San Fernando for 9 months and have slept on this place! It was absolutely amazing! What I like about the meat the most is you can taste the smoke flavor. I’d add just a little salt, that’s all. The beans were freaking perfect, and the potatoe salad was perfect!!! I will always be coming here to get some bbq every payday!!Oh and her customer service is beyond superb!! Very friendly even to a outsiders face, meaning I’ve never been there. I didn’t get her name, but sweetie you are amazing!!!!!!!No pics cause I tore that good up!! ?Kid-friendliness: Nice atmosphere

Ohh noooooo.... the reviews led me astray on this one!!! While this place is quaint and welcoming, and the owners vibrant and endearing; the food and drinks here fell short completely. To start everything was SWEET. The coffee, the bbq sauce, the sides (coleslaw/beans); everything tasted like it was from a bulk tub of something and overly processed. Nothing was made from scratch and half of it was inedible. It's not saying much, but the meats were the saving grace and had a nice smokiness to them… they were unfortunately slathered in a thick layer of sauce (see pic). If you're looking to support a local small business and want some basic bbq, this place is for you. If you're looking for the best smoked bbq in the greater Los Angeles area, this ain't it. There's so many great smoked bbq spots in LA (Slab, Bludsos, Moo's, APL, Swinging Door), save yourself the heartache we experienced. It's hard to have mediocre bbq after having really good smoked bbq. Trust me on this one!
