It's so juicy and meaty. Mmmmmmm yummy. Bbq sauce is also really tasty. Normally it's too sweet but the smokey cow was perfectly balanced. Service 5/5: the serving size is also HUGE! Can feed your whole family. I highly highly recommend it!

It has been well over 3 years ago that we have had Smokey Cow. It was located on Sherman Way in Van…read moreNuys before they took a long hiatus. We were thrilled when we saw Smokey Cow resumed business and we were lucky enough to get some scrumptious BBQ before heading back to NorCal. Our favorite was the Beef Rib. This trip our favorite was the Brisket. My son said it ranks up there with Franklin's and Jack Black's in Texas, home of some of the best BBQ in the nation. The Brisket had an excellent smoke ring, nice seasoning and most of all it was super tender. Just outstanding, hard to get this good of brisket. The Beef Rib and Pork Ribs were pretty good but probably left on the grill just a tinge longer so it wasn't quite as moist as the last time I had Smokey Cow. I also had the homemade Mac and Cheese, pickles, chips and cole slaw. They make everything including the sauce except for the chips. Brisket 5+ Beef Ribs 4.25 Pork Ribs 4.25 Mac and Cheese 4.0 Sauces and sides 4.5 Great guys 5.0 Overall, excellent BBQ, nice guys and priced normally for BBQ faire. On my next trip to SoCal, I will be stopping by to get excellent BBQ and great service. If you haven't been there before, look for the alley entrance that goes behind the houses where the garages are and look for the lighted entrance. Go early, you don't want to miss out on some of the best BBQ in the area. Smokey Cow is my #1 BBQ, Swinging Door #2 and Bludso's #3.

The coffee is high quality and there is love poured into every cup. I've had both iced coffee and hot coffee and everything is good. It's not bitter, it has smooth robust flavor and crema in every shot. Try the banana latte you won't be disappointed!! The pastries are yummy too, it's worth a stop in.

I came in as a repeat customer and left wondering why I had kept giving this place my money…read more Mediocre coffee is disappointing enough. Being made to feel invisible while waiting to buy it is what finally lost me as a customer. There were only four or five people in line and two employees working, yet more than five minutes passed without even a basic acknowledgment. There was no greeting, no acknowledgment of the wait, and not so much as a "We'll be right with you." The employees appeared to be taking their time while the people waiting went completely unacknowledged. I don't expect anyone to roll out a red carpet, and I understand that making drinks takes time. But there is a difference between waiting for service and feeling completely ignored. A greeting takes seconds. Basic courtesy should not be the hardest thing to get at a coffee shop. What makes this particularly frustrating is that I had supported this business repeatedly. The coffee was never anything to write home about; the convenient location was what kept bringing me back. After this experience, even that has lost its appeal. I would rather go out of my way than keep spending money somewhere that leaves me feeling this unwelcome. A simple acknowledgment could have changed the entire experience. Instead, they lost a returning customer over the absolute bare minimum. They can keep the mediocre coffee. I'll take my money somewhere that makes an effort to earn it.

It's located inside a home - converted to look like a restaurant kinda. The concept is a supper…read moreclub - the Chef - Craig Thornton , an Assitant cook, and a lady who greets us at the entrance. The kitchen is a home kitchen with a house keeper washing the dishes by hand. It is a help yourself type of situation. BYOB and pour it yourself. There is a total of 16 seats per night. 6 of us in our reservation. They dim the place for the ambience. Food wise - Total of 7 courses - last 2 was the dessert. There is no printed menu, so you'll just have to ask what it is that you're eating and why the main course -steak- was served first. We were asked to keep the utensils through out the course as they do not change your silverware for every course. Cringe. I had such a high expectation with the food prior to dinner. It felt flat - Everything. The only thing that we like was the corn bread. The steak was tough - some us got super rare and some got overly done tough. Some flavor combination just didn't pair well. Something with a fish dish but sour like hell. Another dish was blue and it just did not look a dish coming out of a fine dining restaurant. Funny the people that were there was talking about Somni, Providence, Melisse.... It just did not even come close. It's like going to a friend's house who's practicing to be a fine dining chef. Pics of the food is posted in this review. None of them was impressive. It just did not go well together. When it came to the 7th course - it was a shaved ice. The Asian assitant cook brought them over and said it's Mandarin ice. So we asked, can you give us a little bit more description... his response was so rude that he said "it's ice with mandarin orange flavor". Oh ok - now you say mandarin oranges. But his condescending attitude is not appreciated. The night is ending and the Chef has not once come to the table to say Hi or introduced himself. People started to leave and he decided to speak to some remaining guests. Then he gets stuck with that particular guest for a long time until everyone is leaving. We probably just had like a Hi and Hello thank you for the food. He seems nice though. Then we all left. We clearly didn't even care anymore at that point. Bad food and bad experience. No parking. Good luck finding a parking on the streets on fountain and Vermont with all the homeless around. It's a hype. It's mysterious because it's really not listed as a restaurant. Not for everyone.

The restaurant is located in a small strip mall. There was plenty of parking when we arrived, although I could see parking becoming an issue if the restaurant gets very busy. We ordered the Salmone Grigliato, Eggplant Parmigiana, and Filet of Sole. The food was excellent. The service was exceptional--the waiter checked on us every few minutes and was very attentive. She also recommended the Eggplant Parmigiana and the sole, and both dishes were delicious. A couple at the adjacent table ordered a pizza that had to be the greenest pizza we had ever seen! The restaurant itself was nicely decorated, with Italian music playing softly in the background. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience. We will be back!

Wanna Smash popped up locally to me. So I checked it out…read more So here's the deal. Are smash burgers popping up all over? Yes. This is the new Nashville chicken wave. Do smash burgers re-invent the wheel when it comes to burgers? Not really. While they are good in their own right. They are just a greasy, crispy burger packed with flavor. With that said Wanna Smash checks off all smash burgers qualities. Tasty and crispy. They do be hitting the marks well. Do they bring anything new? No not really. Their Yum Yum sauce is great. I think being a little sweeter than others makes it unique. Its a has a smokey / paprika flavor. Pairs well. I got the fries and Hot n Heavy added another patty. Jalapenos were not grilled but I would have been great if they were. Tasty burger. On point. And local to me. Now I do not need to venture out to any of the other smash spots. Burger + Fries are $15. Keep in mind these are single patty burgers. Extra patty is $3.
