50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Winnetka

“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 ?“

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

“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.“

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

“This place is awesome!!! Their plate size for shrimp fried rice is huuuge and served fresh. ?? You’ll probably have more shrimp in a this plate than the shrimp pasta you had in Italian restaurants youve been to ? They gave me free donut and drink too! The staff is really nice and accommodating as well ?

Vegetarian options: They have variety of fruit selection and freshly made smoothies and shakes

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp for wheelchairs“

“I like the pork ribs and all the fixings Try the potato salad“

“Second time coming to ZEF'S and will be planning on coming back for more brisket, burnt ends, tri-tip, pulled pork, and ribs soon. We got the platter and it easily had enough food to serve 4 for lunch with the sides and everything. Logan and the guys were friendly and made picking up the order an easy and worthwhile trip.“

“Brisket and ribs were perfectly tender. Smoke and seasoning was spot on. Kansas City's got nothing on Cuckoo's Nest BBQ. The mustard sauce needs to come in a jar ?.

Parking: Park on Mulholland and a short walk up the driveway.“

“Born in the valley in the 1970s grew up eating at this place 70s 80s and 90s before I left the SFV. Came back into town for the weekend for a short visit to see family and friends had to stop by here and eat for the Nostalgia. Waitresses great very friendly place looked and smelled the same food seem to taste a little different though don't know if it's just because of my bad memory or times have changed but still love this place bought three bottles of barbecue sauce to take home“

“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.“

“I thought I would see if there was anything I could have here so I took a look and they had Beyond tacos! They were delicious!!! Even the spicy mayonnaise was vegan! Thank you so much for having a vegan option! I'll be back for those tacos again!

Vegetarian options: The Beyond tacos are vegan - even the spicy mayo is vegan!“

“5 STARS SUPER DELICIOUS EVERY TIME“

“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.“

“I've been coming to Family Mongolian BBQ since I was a kid, and it’s still one of my favorite lunch spots. The customizable stir-fry concept means I always get exactly what I want—and after years of experimenting, I’ve perfected my go-to sauce combo: 1 curry, 1 ginger, 1 hot, 2 sweet, 2 BBQ, and 2 oil. For newcomers, it may take a little trial and error, but that’s half the fun.

The food is fresh, the flavors are bold, and the experience is as interactive as it is delicious. I usually come for lunch, which includes a small soup and one hearty plate of food—more than enough for a satisfying meal. For those with bigger appetites, dinner offers an all-you-can-eat option.

The service is always friendly, and the staff creates a welcoming, casual atmosphere. A fun little bonus? They have a cute robot server that brings dishes to your table—it’s a charming and modern touch that adds to the experience.

I also really enjoy their selection of imported beers. It’s a small detail, but sampling different options adds an extra layer of enjoyment to each visit.

If you’re looking for a tasty, relaxed spot where you can build your own perfect stir-fry and feel right at home, Family Mongolian BBQ is definitely worth checking out.“

“I’ve been coming to Siam Cuisine for years. Pookie and her husband are such nice people and their food is very exceptional, the pad Thai is my favorite. But the reason is because of the simplicity and the flavor. The yellow curry is also my favorite, especially when adding shrimp. Hearing their story about them opening the restaurant is also a humble story for the ages. Their dedication and hard work is what makes their food so flavorful and unique. The best Thai food and for a reasonable price too!!! All around!!!“

“Decent all you can eat Korean BBQ in the valley. I ate the premium menu for about 35ish dollars per person and enjoyed the ribeye, brisket, and beef tongue. If you're picky about meat quality there's none all you can eat places in the valley, but this one is decent for all you can eat. I also like the clean and bright atmosphere“

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

“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!“

“Good authentic Chinese food.
We had green beans with minced pork, kung pao chicken, fish filet in black bean sauce, and shrimp with lobster sauce. They are all very good and tasty. A little on the salty side, but still delicious with a "strong character" ;-)
Atmosphere is very casual. The typical Chinese restaurant!
Service is good“

“lo mejor asado criollo de la argentina esta en manos de martin fierro asados“

“GREAT chicken. Very crispy and not too heavy like some others out there. Me and my wife ordered 2 small 8 piece bone-in wings (Original Golden flavor), fries and coleslaw. The fries were some of the best I’ve had. Coleslaw was fresh & not too sweet.

My only two gripes with the food are: 1.the price) A little on the expensive end, as back home (Palmdale) we could get an eight piece combo with fries and a drink for the same price as just an 8 piece wings here alone (Korean place too). All good though, inflation hits everyone. Means we just will come here once in a while. And 2) you can only choose one marinade per wing set. Every wing spot I’ve been to allows you to do 1/2 one flavor and 1/2 another. Pretty standard practice, so I thought that was a little disappointing.

One more thing I should mention about the service: I wish the lady (she was Asian) would have suggested me and my wife share a medium (16 piece). It is cheaper to go that route if you both want the same flavor ($30.99) versus two smalls ($33.98). Would have saved us some money and been a nice gesture, but it’s hard to expect that when someone is running a business. Didn’t realize until after the fact.

Anyways, I’d recommend giving them a shot. Just note the things mentioned above before going, if they matter to you.“

“Es mi primera vez que mi hijo me invitó a cenar y muy buen servicio y muy limpio muy buena cena Gracias“

“Great service n food. Try it out.“

“Love this place. Highly recommend.“

“the Best plate lunch in town“

“Most definitely great food and beautiful set up on the turo-turo (point-point) window as long as you’re not expecting a cheerful service from the servers. No complaints about the food and atmosphere but maybe they can do better on giving the joyful and enthusiastic welcome and interactions to customers and supporters. Get a little giddy and lively gurlfwends and give us that we’re glad you’re here type of feeling ?

Parking: Ample parking shared by the nearby stores“

“Tony's Filipino BBQ is a must-try! We were blown away by the delicious food and friendly service. The panga ng tuna was perfectly grilled and flavorful, while the pork belly BBQ was juicy and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The chicken inasal was also a winner, with its classic smoky flavor and tender meat.

We loved the fluffy bibingkinita for dessert. Everything is made to order, so you can taste the freshness in each dish. The service was also fantastic – friendly and attentive. If you're looking for authentic Filipino bbq, Tony's is the place to be!“

“I found a rare restaurant in this neighborhood of North Hollywood, clean, good interior, delicious couisine.
I ordered 3 pieces of lahmajo, but couldn't even eat all, because 2 pieces was enough for me. And price was only $2,7.

Vegetarian options: Salads“

“They have the best food, I love everything I tried and I can’t wait to come back again and try their other menu specialties.“

“I forgot to take pictures before I ate the pizza. So I was thinking of getting something for so friends and me and wanted to try the place out. Food was ready 5ish minutes before I was supposed to pick it up. It was fantastic. I got a meat lover's and a vegetarian. Lots of toppings and the vegetables were fresh. Not too much cheese and not too little. Good amount of sauce and the crust was very good as well.“

“This place was so good and had amazing prices, there very nice people, and to top it off the food is fresh served right off the grill, I got chicken and pork plate and that was only $16 and I got a good amount of food. I will definitely recommend this place and I will definitely be going back....thank you for great service.“

“Great service n food. Try it out.“

“Awesomely great foods, friendly staff, clean place“

“Yummiest street food ever👌“

“I liked the no frills menu, Mongolian BBQ or Vegetarian dish. The chicken and beef combination was cooked well. Unlike other places you cannot fill the bowl yourself, but I still ended up with a lot of food. The staff made recommendations for what sauces to use and listed all of the sauces. It is located in a mall so general mall dining. They also have Boba!

Vegetarian options: There were 12 vegetables to choose from. They had jalapeños which always makes me happen. It’s important to note that the meat and vegetarian dishes are cooked on the same surface.“
