    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.

    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.

    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'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.

    what a bomb hibachi truck we have in Sunland! i have seen…read morethis hibachi truck parked across the street from the starbucks for a year now & I've finally decided to give them a try. i like the spot the chose because parking is convenient. when i approached the food truck the really nice lady greeted me at the window and immediately took my order. i like that they had photos on their menu so i can see what the food i am ordering looks like. i instantly knew i wanted to try their filet mignon & chicken w/ fried rice + veggies on the side. they give you a really good amount of the rice & the protein, kinda wish they added a bit more veggies but it's okay. everything was still soo delicious. the proteins were cooked perfectly! i like the teriyaki sauce on top of the protein.. it truly gives it that yummy flavor. so delicious mixed with the rice. this portion amount really filled me up. I was even able to save it for the next day. the wait for the food is not long at all. im glad i finally decided to give them a try. I am most definitely coming back to try their noodles!

    I really try to support small businesses & always give places multiple chances before leaving a…read morereview, especially when the first experience was great. My first visit to King Tut's Hibachi food truck was amazing. The food was seasoned perfectly, the rice was cooked properly & the filet pieces were big, generous chunks. The portions are very fair for the prices, two people can easily share one plate. I left impressed, happy & excited for their small business. However, after going back several more times, the inconsistency has been disappointing. On multiple visits, the rice was undercooked & grainy. I actually called the owner directly about it because I didn't want to leave a negative review, I wanted him to have the opportunity to fix it & be aware of it directly. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like much has changed. Last night was especially disappointing. The rice was undercooked again, & filet was cut into very small bits. It had so much pepper & salt that it wasn't edible, all I could taste was pepper. You couldn't even add the sauces on top because it would have made it even saltier. It honestly felt like a waste of $88 on two plates. The flavor was completely unbalanced compared to my first visit. There's also a pricing issue with the menu that customers should be aware of. Ordering a plate of double filet & a plate of double shrimp (to share at home), costs about $5 more than ordering two filet & shrimp combo plates. The receipt didn't provide a breakdown either, so as a customer you really have to study the menu & structure your order carefully to avoid paying more for essentially the same amount of food. I brought this to the owner's attention. He did offered $5 cash back, which I appreciated, but the real issue is not being able to fully trust the pricing structure. The owner is genuinely very nice, that's why I've given multiple chances & brought up concerns directly to him. He does seem like he's taking down feedback when you mention issues with the food, but when you come back & don't see improvement, you start to question it. As a customer, I need to be able to trust the pricing structure & expect consistency in the food. I truly hope they improve because when it's good, it's really good.

    Hell's Chicken truly lives up to its name!! This place is a full-on experience for spice lovers…read more If you're someone who actively seeks out heat, flavor, and boldness, not just "kind of spicy," but commitment level spicy, Hell's Chicken deserves your attention. I placed a pretty large order: *Chicken wrap - Extra Hot *Loaded fries - Hot *12 wings (half mango habanero, half honey sriracha) *Strawberry banana funnel cake with a vanilla & chocolate ice cream swirl For the amount of food I ordered, I was genuinely impressed by how quickly everything came out. Nothing felt rushed or sloppy. It was efficient, hot, and ready to go. That kind of speed with this many items is something I always notice and appreciate. Let's get straight into the Extra Hot chicken wrap, because this needs to be addressed properly. I have a high spice tolerance and this heat level still caught me off guard. This is not "Extra Hot" as a marketing label. This is a legit, no-nonsense heat! Haha. The spice hits early, builds steadily, and lingers. WHICH I LOOOVE. I was truly impressed because this wasn't even their hottest heat level! Makes me wonder if I can go even hotter. What really stood out, though, is that the wrap didn't rely on heat alone. Even through the intensity, the flavor still came through. That balance is hard to pull off, and Hell's Chicken nailed it. If you're debating between heat levels; Extra Hot is not for casual spice fans. The waffle fries that came with the wrap deserve a mention as well. They were perfectly crispy and definitely on the saltier side, but in the best way, especially when paired with the intense heat of the Extra Hot wrap. The saltiness actually worked as a contrast, balancing out the spice and making them dangerously easy to keep reaching for between bites. The loaded fries in hot were the perfect middle ground. Crispy, well-seasoned, generously topped, and spicy without being overwhelming. It had the most tasty dressing that complemented the meal perfectly. That sauce is actually addictive, just a warning! Compared to the wrap, these felt indulgent and comforting. It's still flavorful, still warm with heat, but much more approachable. They paired well with everything else and held up bite after bite. The wings were honestly the highlight of the entire meal. The mango habanero sauce was unlike any other mango habanero flavor I've had. The wings had a great sweet-heat balance, with a super fruity brightness that made them easy to keep eating. The habanero heat was present but controlled, letting the mango shine without being cloying. But wow the honey sriracha wings?!?! Absolutely the standout. These were, without question, my favorite dish! Sticky, glossy, perfectly coated, and incredibly balanced. Sweet, and spicy in a way that felt intentional and addictive. I'm usually super underwhelmed when I have any sriracha flavored wings elsewhere because they absolutely do not taste like real sriracha. But THESE, these definitely did and I'm obsessed with the flavor. Every bite delivered, and these are the wings I'd come back for again and again. If you only order one flavor, make it honey sriracha. After all that heat, the strawberry banana funnel cake was exactly what I needed. Warm, extra crispy funnel cake paired with a vanilla and chocolate ice cream swirl. It created the ideal hot and cold contrast. The fresh strawberries and banana slices added brightness and sweetness without overpowering the dessert. It was perfect. It genuinely rounded out the meal and helped reset after the spice marathon! Overall, what makes Hell's Chicken stand out is how confident it is in what it does. The spice levels are serious, the flavors are bold, and nothing feels watered down for the masses. Add in the fast turnaround time for a large order, and it's clear this place knows how to execute. Hell's Chicken isn't trying to please everyone, it's here for people who appreciate real spice and strong flavor. If that's you, this spot belongs on your list! Thank you so much for having me.

    Picked this up to-go for lunch and the Loaded Mashed alone could probably feed 2 people... maybe…read moreeven 3 depending on how hungry you are. The portion was absolutely massive and definitely worth it if you're sharing. The chopped chicken was super soft, flavorful, and went really well with the mashed potatoes and sauce. Everything together was rich, comforting, and honestly way better than I expected. My only complaint was the bacon bits because it was just a little too much and kind of threw the flavor balance off slightly. Next time I'd definitely leave those out. The atmosphere is really relaxed, and every time I've gone it hasn't been overly packed or busy, which I appreciate. Service wasn't necessarily super fast, but it was reasonable considering everything tasted fresh. Also a bonus: plenty of parking since it's located in a large plaza.
