42 Best Barbeque Restaurants in Seattle

“Large portions of the most buttery steaks and pork we have ever had. Real Japanese A5 wagyu grilled for you on the table.“

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

“The prime rib was excellent. The service was superb. The people are very friendly, and the atmosphere is very welcoming.“

“This is a completely GF BBQ spot me and the GF Bff's tried today, and wow are we glad we did. All of us were floored at the depth of flavor and thoughtful customer service. It's incredibly filling too. Do not sleep on the desserts. While outsider barbecue is solid this place is much cozier in its feel both in the neighborhood and in the interaction with the owner who was manning the till. 10/10 can't wait to go back

“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 saw this restaurant on Insta and finally made it over to try with some folks I know. The atmosphere was nice, reminds me of some BBQ restaurants back home. I tried the brisket, sausage, ribs, and a couple of sides the greens and Mac n cheese. The brisket was tender and it came with light bread so I could have a fold over with onions. The ribs were cooked well too. The Mac n cheese wasn't for me but the greens are 🔥🔥🔥. Stop by for a good bite“

“The most creative chef in the Pacific Northwest Jason Melton has done it again. He brought his 30+ years of knowledge to the table to provide a BBQ experience unlike any other. Check the page out for more details and make sure to purchase some merch on the website.“

“Reliably good Szechuan food right on the Ave. Don't miss the string beans or hot oil noodles. Nom.“

“I picked up some kimbap from ONMI to go, and it was absolutely delicious! The fillings were incredibly fresh and flavorful, and you could really taste the quality in every bite. The to-go orders were also packed carefully and thoughtfully. You can tell that a lot of care goes into both the food and the presentation. Highly recommend!“

“Char Siu Bao are fantastic. Har Gow not as good but still excellent.

The Bao are light, fluffy, warm from the steamer. Not too doughy. Stuffed with rich pork filling that isn’t too sweet but plenty juicy.

The Har Gow are massive with large noticeably fresh shrimp in very thin wrappers. I do wish the shrimp were a little sweeter but still very very good.

Price 4 large har Gow and 3 very good size but what they call small Bao came out to $11.

The chef behind the counter was fast, friendly, and helpful.

Honestly one of my favorite places I’ve found in Seattle and by far the best pork Bao I’ve found and I’ve tried 7 spots in the last 2 days.“

“I loved the hum bao, just wish it had a bit more filling. I did try a crab Rangoon..... and let me tell you, that beast was worth $4! It was enormous and had very good amount of crab in it! The taro Boba was awesome. I want to come back and try the pork skewer. And maybe a few other things!“

“My husband has been talking about this place for the longest time, so we finally decided to give it a try today. We picked everything up and brought it home, and honestly, I’m so glad we finally did!

My husband is from Macau and is pretty particular about Cantonese food, so he was the one who kept telling me we had to try this place. And he was absolutely right — everything was so delicious and tasted really authentic, even as takeout.

We’ve been living in Seattle for over a year, but with all the craziness of moving and getting settled, we somehow kept putting it off. Now I’m honestly wondering why we didn’t come sooner!

Definitely some of the best Cantonese food we’ve had since moving to Seattle. We’ll absolutely be ordering from here again! ❤“

“first time trying one and did the rib eye bowl with the yum yum sauce and tried the Kimchi cucumber. I can't stop thinking about it, it was so good, I want to more!!“

“amazing place very cool!!!“

“We had the ginger chicken and house fried rice. This place is one of the only Chinese restaurant left in Beacon Hill. This says a lot considering this use to be a Chinese neighborhood. The food is classic Chinese American. We will definitely be going back to contributing to their preservation. The first time we had it was at a catered event. I’m glad we went back. It’s an old school classic. Supporting or neighbors will be a joy. Can’t wait to try the chow mein.“

“Most of the snacks in the deli area are pretty good, you can try them~ If you want to eat, I recommend curry instead of beef bowl, because the beef bowl is a bit overcooked and there is not much beef flavor~ Miso soup is also good, suitable for a few sips to warm the stomach before starting the barbecue~😋“

“Comfort food to the max! Quick service and large portions. Love the fried dough. Do fresh and I could eat 10 of those drowned in the congee myself. The wontons are delicious too. Wish the tables are a little bit more cleaner and less sticky“

“Great drinks, really good food and a value and cozy chic vibe.“

“小馒头很棒！烤串也很好吃“

“食物很美味肉質很優 ，而且店員有很親切及專業的服務，我超喜歡！值得再訪“

“Super friendly staff great prices and delicious food.“

“What a fantastic place to get lunch! My cousin and I work in Downtown and frequently come here for lunch. They have an affordable lunch special and I always get the double BBQ pork. It comes with fried rice, veggies, soup, and a drink. Only $12.00!!! One would think a cheaper price would mean lesser quality, but it's not. The food tastes amazing and I would highly recommend this place to all locals as well as anyone visiting Seattle.“

“Surpassed my expectations. Real Hawaiian here. Food was fresh, clean, and exactly what you want Hawaiian food to be. Everything made perfect. Real deal. The food actually looked how it does in the pictures, perfect. This is my spot in Seattle for ono grinds. Hands down.“

“Loved the fried popcorn chicken at Gangnam Seattle! The chicken was super crispy and delicious. We tried it with the garlic sauce and yangnyum sauce—the garlic sauce had a nice sweetness to it, and the yangnyum was really flavorful too. Both sauces went so well with the crispy chicken. Definitely a great spot for Korean fried chicken in Chinatown!“

“The quality of the meat is superb and flavorful. In addition, the conduction heating bbq is innovative and convenient. Customer service is attentive and very responsive. Son of the Butcher is popular for all the right reasons! Can’t wait to come back and try other items on the menu 👍“

“Picked up dumplings and a bowl from the truck today in Redmond. Delicious!! I can’t wait to try more.“

“Great portion size and friendly staff.“

“The staff was extremely friendly, the bulgogi was so delicious my friend and I HAD to get another order to take back home, the chicken wings were so perfectly crispy and the spicy beef and kimchi soft tofu soup was chefs kiss, absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Makes me sad I’m not from Seattle so I can’t come back whenever I want.“

“I have been going here for many years the owners may have changed along with now more sitting inside available and the food is still awsome i get a whole rack of the ribs when I am in the neighborhood I go in usually when I am on my way back to my job shop I will continue to go there as long as they are in business“

“Oh my goodness this food is so well seasoned. I could just eat the red beans and rice alone. This is the first time I’ve eaten here since the start of COVID. They have changed the inside from what I remember, it’s smaller. But, the food was great.“

“Im from North Carolina and have strong opinions on barbecue. Was in town for a wedding, tired from traveling, just walked into any old place not expecting much, just a meal. Totally blown away! We came in right as they were about to close and the guy running things was so friendly and gave us extra sides since he was closing out. We got chopped pork sandwiches (hot and medium sauce), Mac n cheese, potato salad, corn, and sweet potato pie. It was all incredible, pork was extremely tender and the sauce was flavorful and not too sweet and gloopy (not a fan of overly-sweet globs of barbecue sauce, personally). Mac n cheese was delicious, great texture on the noodles and really rich and flavorful cheese, REAL CHEESE, not some artificial cheese sauce product, it's the real deal (ifykyk). I personally don't care that much for corn and potato salad, my girlfriend got those sides, but I LOVED both of them even as someone who doesn't go for those sides much myself. The corn was so sweet and buttery! Finally, sweet potato pie was a delicious finish and I still think about it, can taste it right now. We were there over a month ago and I still think about this place so I had to come back and write a review. If I'm ever in Seattle again i will deliberately seek this place out again, we tried to go a second time before our flight out but it was a Monday and they were closed. Definitely try this place out.“

“Solid roasted pork underbelly for 6pm. It was surprisingly crunchy so late in the day.

It came with a corn-carrot based soup and cabbage stirred fried in a meat juice. I think I paid $15 for two meats. It’s only takeout so I just walked to the park a block away to consume. It is not the best but it’s super enjoyable so…5-star.“

“You have to enter theough the boarded door on the left but once you do you get cheap well portioned fresh cuteat and rice and 1 rice bowl which is their main dish can serve 2 hungry people. They take apple and google pay but there is a bit of a language barrier.“
