    Eating Bruce's BBQ at the tables outside the shop
    Deborah M.

    The BBQ IS AMAZING! I have never had such tasty brisket and tri tip. A family business that is an integral part of the community around it. Everyone loves Bruce!!!

    Pulled pork sandwich with potato salad and baked beans.
    Hiram R.

    Fist time here and called ahead to make sure there was still stuff to order as it was closer to closing time. Was told almost a full menu is available and was very happy to hear that. Went right down and my wife and I both ordered the pulled pork sandwich after trying a sample, also ordered a side of beans and potato salad but there are a few other options available. Literally did not even have to chew the meat was so tender and juicy. The beans were sweet and tangy and and the potato salad had black olives added which were a really nice flavor boost. The only things I'll ask for next time (because there will be a next time) is extra BBQ sauce and if they have them, a side of pickles to toss on the sandwich. The addition of cole slaw on top of the pork was great but I just love me some pickles. Owner (I assume is Bruce) was really friendly and the spot looked clean and judging by how delicious the pork was, am exited to try everything else available on the menu soon. Highly recommend going here at least once but I'm sure once you do, you'll end up going back many times. Bruce's will be a spot to stop at on our drive home frequently and I'm very happy to have him in the neighborhood.

    Tri Tip Salad

    It's a hot day and I wanted something with less or no carbs. Tri-tip salad with Bruce's Twisted BBQ Sauce on the side. Hit the spot. Perfect hot day lunch.

    Tried Bruce's Twisted BBQ today. Very tasty! Quick service, fresh hot fries. Eco friendly packaging. Tables out in front of store or to go. Highly recommend you try them. Located in Shadow Hills inside Sam's Country Market on the NW corner of Sunland Blvd and Wheatland.

It looked good too bad service was bad. The employee helping me, Jesus, had an AirPod in, barely acknowledged me, and made me repeat parts of the order multiple times. When I asked for one sauce, he rolled his eyes at me because apparently one was already included. I've never been here before. How would I know? A simple "one sauce is included" would've been enough. After I paid, he walked away without giving me a receipt, estimated wait time, anything!! Thankfully, the other employee who brought out my food was sweet! I was going to order food for myself too, but at that point I didn't bother. I went across to Thai Avenue instead and received GREAT service there. Jesus really needs to work on his attitude and customer service. Maybe he was busy with Togo orders, but please communicate wait times or say I'm sorry I'm short staffed now...Maybe it was a bad day, but there was no reason to make a first-time customer feel like an inconvenience. Literally felt like HELL.

Service was solid and the food came out pretty quick. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area." If you want, I can make it sound more funny, more harsh, or more hype depending on the vibe you're going for.

We ordered family-style with luleh kabob, beef kabob, chicken kabob, salad, appetizers, and plenty of sides for the group. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared.

Even with a large order, everything was ready on time and packaged well. It's always difficult finding a place that can consistently deliver quality food for a big family event, but Leo's exceeded our expectations. Everyone enjoyed the meal, and we received several compliments from family members asking where the food came from.

I was rejected the substitution which it would have cost nothing much since a yogurt is as cheap as rice. The hummus tasted like the paste you get out of the can,horrible.

When my order arrived, I discovered that my sauces and ranch were missing. I immediately called the store to see if there was a solution. An unidentified female employee answered the phone. I explained that I had ordered through the app, paid for delivery, and wanted to know if there was any way to have the missing ranch delivered. She informed me that delivery was not possible and that I would need to drive to the store to pick it up myself. I advised that I was willing to pick it up but asked whether any accommodation could be provided since I had already paid delivery fees and would now have to make the trip myself due to the store's mistake. The employee stated that she was unsure and that I would need to speak with a manager. When I asked to be transferred, she appeared hesitant, began speaking with another employee (later identified as Luz or Liz), and then informed me that the manager had already left and that I would need to call back the following morning at 9:00 a.m. I then requested to speak with anyone currently in charge. The employee stated that she was "only two days new" and could not transfer me to anyone else. I asked if there was another employee with more experience or authority available, but she repeatedly stated that she could not do that. While continuing to request assistance, I could hear her speaking with Luz/Liz in the background. Moments later, the call was disconnected. I called the store back twice, and on both occasions, the phone was answered and immediately hung up. On my third attempt, I was finally able to speak with Luz. From the beginning of the conversation, Luz was passive-aggressive and stated that there was nothing the store could do other than have me drive in to pick up the missing ranch. I again asked whether any accommodation could be offered since I had paid for delivery and would now have to spend my own time and gas correcting the store's error. Luz stated that no accommodation would be provided. I then requested that my order be remade because by the time I drove to the store and returned home, my food would likely be cold and soggy. Luz denied the request, stating that because there was nothing wrong with the food itself, she could not remake the order. During the conversation, Luz suggested that the delivery driver may have taken the missing ranch. However, when I asked whether she was certain that the ranch and sauces had actually been placed in my bag before it left the store, she could not confirm this. Instead, she stated that it was possible the items had accidentally been placed in another customer's order. When I brought up the fact that my calls had been repeatedly answered and hung up, Luz stated that because there was nothing further she could do for me, there was no reason to continue answering the phone calls. As a former assistant manager for a fast-food chain, I understand that mistakes happen. However, the way this situation was handled was completely unacceptable. The missing items were frustrating, but the lack of accountability, poor communication, repeated hang-ups, and unprofessional customer service made the experience significantly worse. Both the unidentified employee and Luz were unprofessional, unhelpful, and demonstrated a serious lack of customer service skills. I hope management reviews this incident, addresses the behavior of the employees involved, and provides additional customer service training to ensure future customers are treated with respect and professionalism.
