20 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Burien

“⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️ BBQ that tastes like home Warms your heart and the lady who works there is a delight ❤️“

“I cannot even begin to explain how excited I was for this meal. I may or may not have had a little wine and a gummy (as one does), so the vibes were already high. I ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry and the Homemade Hamburger Steak with Gravy, and let me tell you—both were absurdly good. Like, offensively delicious. I usually roll my eyes when people say “amazing” too much, but here? Yeah. Worth it.
Let’s talk katsu. Instead of breast, it’s made with thigh meat—an absolute revelation. Juicy, flavorful, life-changing. I had to sit down (and yes, I was already sitting). But here’s the kicker: the leftovers. I reheated the curry-soaked katsu in the air fryer and it became next-level. The sauce seeps into the breading, then the air fryer brings back the crisp like magic.
And honestly? The real move is to fry it again after the curry hits. Re-fry. Trust me. The sauce-infused breading turns into this glorious crunch-meets-savoriness situation that’s borderline unfair. I would order this dish again just for the leftovers. Delicious the first time around, but the remix? Absolute perfection. 10/10, would air fry again.“

“Really good BBQ!! We will be back to try the whole menu!“

“Excellent service from Elizabeth! She was so friendly and attentive! I ordered brisket with mac & cheese and potato salad and my friend ordered the bacon & blues burger with a brisket add on and talk about mouth watering! We also ordered the fried pickle jar and highly recommend that appetizer! We saved our leftovers for the next day and it went just as hard! Amazing hospitality from this establishment and the vibe was so country it felt like we were back home in Texas! Don’t skip out on the banana pudding and a big thank you to management and the cooks who help keep the place running smooth!“

“I’m from Dallas, TX and have had a hard time finding true southern BBQ in this entire state! Except Pete’s! Now, I’ve had great smoked brisket and other great smoked culinary experiences, but this one is the most Southern. What I mean is that the coleslaw is excellent with a medium shred, not too large or chopped too small, and an even amount of dressing. The sweet cornbread muffins with honey-butter straight from cast-iron are amazing. The pickle slices are even a culinary delight, sitting next to raw onions and a plethora of BBQ sauces to choose from. Oh, and free ice-cream cones if you even have room left to fill (we did not, lol). I could go on about the sweet tea, baked beans, slow-smoked ribs, shredded smoked pork, sausage, chicken, and desserts but…Just bring your appetite and try it for y’all’s selves! ;)“

“Best BBQ in Seattle. They are like family. RIBS are a must. So is the BBQ sauce. ☝🏼“

“best plate of food. it doesn't matter what you actually get. it will still be the best plate of food around. I drive over over an hour just to grub here. Always delighted and leave full and happy. great people as well. take it from this fat guy... lil reds is the best!“

“Recommended by our shuttle driver who said we could easily share a meal. Very quick friendly service. Great food. Very large portions. Would highly recommend.“

“HOLY MOLY! It was a place we didn't expect to find, but so glad we did! What looks like an unassuming hole-in-the-wall place turned out to be the best BBQ I've ever had. Amazing customer service, with food that was so flavorful that just the aromas has me salivating. I had the Smoked Salmon Dip with Citrus Au Jus, while my husband had the Caveman Half Chicken meal, with potato salad and baked beans. Their beans? ABSOLUTE. PERFECTION. I can't wait to take my son here next week when he flies in from Arizona. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food is amazing. Pretty expensive for pit BBQ, but if you dont mind spending a little more, its a decent spot. I spent about $40 for a sweet tea, a pulled pork sandwich, mashed potatoes, and a dessert.“

“My first time here and the worker immediately greeted me. He opened up a large steamer and told me that he had just made them fresh. It was a stack of large tin containers all with pork ribs and rice rolls. I bought one and left as there's no seating that I saw. It was delicious. I would come back for more here for sure.“

“we ordered 2 brisket and 2 chicken plates... no complaints. our sides were yams, collard greens, beans and okra. there was flavor, excellent (really more than enough) portion sizes. we will definitely visit again.“

“Get the basic breakfast! Best I had in Seattle! I was looking for a restaurant in the area and when I got here I saw it’s also linked to a golf course. I went in and sat on the patio with a mimosa, amazing breakfast, and watched the golfers.“

“Their lunch grill options are amazing and at affordable prices! We love the food which comes out nicely and also tasty, service was amazing. It was not noisy at alland had a great time here. Highly recommend if you are looking for a kbbq for gatherings“

“Outstanding BBQ served with a unique style. Classic smoked brisket to creative milpasa tamales with flavor for miles.“

“Delicious! Perfect amount of natural smoke flavor on the brisket and the BBQ sauce was well balanced with a touch of spice. So much meat I used a fork before eating it as a sandwich. Service was fun, lighthearted, friendly. I will definitely go back!“
