I stopped by on my way to Phoenix reading all the good reviews. First, want to say I'm happy with my visit and would come again. Detailed review: I ordered the peppercorn crusted Tri-Tip, and it was nice that it came fast, but it was unfortunate that it was chewy and not very flavorful, I had to rely on the sauces to get some flavor, HOWEVER, when my server came to check on me and I shared I was a bit disappointed, she took that feedback to the manager, the manager came by and offer me a side of their Brisket, and what a difference, flavor was great, texture perfect, it was soft but meaty, perfect combo. This is how you know a restaurant cares about their menu and their service. Shout out to my server Alyssa, and to Jackie for their excellent service. read more

We had reservations for Mothers day although we wanted to see about coming in a little earlier so we came in and they said that they could get us a table as soon as they clear a table and they will text us. There was no waiting area to sit and wait so we sat at the front table to wait and they came to us and said I am sorry we have to get this table ready for a reservation so told us to go shop and will text you 45min went by so my husband called and they said that we would be called at our reservation time if we would have known that prior we would of came back instead they left us hanging and on top of that the bench I was sitting at was not even prepped for a reservation and no was sitting there. I just felt it was rude The Who situation. I have been here several times and it has always been excellent until now. Possible new management or the girls they hire have no people skills. read more

Came here because I was craving some good barbecue, and even after more than six years since my last visit, this place is still just as great. The food is delicious and absolutely worth recommending. The chicken was juicy, the pulled pork was savory, and although I didn't order the ribs, they looked incredible on nearby tables. The tri-tip was a bit on the fatty side, but still packed with flavor. I also love that they have a variety of barbecue sauces right at the table so you can mix things up. Service was awesome. I originally requested bar seating when I made the reservation, but when we arrived and saw how packed it was, we asked if we could switch to a table. They accommodated us right away, which I really appreciated. Our waitress was attentive, quick, and always on top of refills without us having to ask. The drinks were just as impressive. I tried a seasonal cocktail--something like a strawberry corn cake bourbon--and it was super refreshing and unique. Portion sizes are huge, so sharing is definitely an option. And don't skip dessert--it was absolutely worth it. The ambiance feels like a gastropub with a relaxed vibe. It's located in what's considered a packing district area, though it's a bit more low-key compared to others in Orange County. Overall, definitely worth the drive if you're not nearby. I'd happily come back again! read more

It's been a while since we had been here. They still have the amazing cornbread which started the meal off perfectly. I ordered the pulled pork with a side of sweet potato fries and the Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious and the meat was so tender and tasty. My wife ordered the St. Louis ribs with a side of garlic mashed potatoes and the cream corn. Here again, the meat was so tender and tasty as it fell off the bone. Everything was delicious. We finished with the blueberry cobbler with a scoop of some amazing ice cream. The service was as amazing as the food. Our server, Alicia, was very attentive and friendly, making my wife's birthday lunch very special. Definitely would recommend this restaurant. Great music playing in the background. read more

Corn bread corn bread corn bread. Hint we loved the corn bread. Location is fabulous conveniently located next door to the parking structure with the village accesible for a post meal walk and overall a great place to people watch from a historic building. Sausages were snappy good. Greens and garlic green beans made it very Keto friendly. Deviled eggs very good. Service was a bit off. I think our server was new and struggled to enter the orders into the device, my daughters plate had the incorrect sides and overall took a while to get the staff's attention for the bill and to go containers. The bus staff was more responsive. read more

Located in an ideal spot with plenty of parking (either on the street or in the structure). You can choose between inside or outside seating. If it gets a little chilly outside, you can ask them to turn on the outdoor heater. Service was attentive with ensuring we didnt go thirsty or if we needed anything else (like extra plates). You can even come solo and they have bar seats inside and outside. On to the food: They have a great variety of options for appetizers. Honestly, looking forward to having some more in the future. We loved the deviled eggs, fried pickles, and cornbread (melt in your mouth). To eat, had the Memphis baby back ribs and smoked tri tip dip. Both tasted great having been seasoned well. The paired coleslaw and Mac and cheese werent anything special tho. Honestly, this place is ideal for meeting with friends to share some appetizers with. They also had several drink options, including cocktails ($14 to $16) and craft beer ($9). I enjoyed their cucumber jalapeño drink. read more

I absolutely loved this place. Immediately, we were greeted by the General Manager and he made sure that we were taken care of the entire time. It smelled so good when we sat down and I knew we had made the right decision coming here. What's also really nice is that they have a large outdoor seating area that wraps around the restaurant, as well as a decent-sized bar. My sister and I wanted to try out their sandwiches so that's what we did and we both ordered the exact same thing with two different sides: The Texas Prime Brisket Sandwich with macaroni and potato salad. It was so smokey, the portion was large, and with the additional spicy bbq sauce that they had on the table, it provided just the right amount of zing. I'm usually a fan of deviled eggs but I thought this dish was a little too vinegar-y for me so I would skip this one if you're not used to that flavor. The mac and cheese and potato salad were solid. Nothing to brag about but I would order them again. I'll need to try more of their traditional dishes. I really want to come back for their ribs and even more of their sides so I can't wait! read more

Located in the Claremont Packing House, Gus's BBQ brings true Southern BBQ to the area. The menu includes all the classics like baby back ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and tri-tip. Food was excellent. I did spend a few minutes standing around looking for a hostess when I first walked in but the service was very good once we sat down. Worth a try if you are in the area. read more

Food was good, tried tri tip, st louis ribs and the brisket. Brisket was the best in my opinion. Favorite sides were cream corn, greens, garlic mashed potatoes. The mac n cheese was lacking so much flavor and cheese lol. Ordered a blueberry mint lemonade it was ok. We also ordered corn bread for appetizer it was pretty good. Came with honey butter and jalapeno jam but not the best a little dry. Service was pretty good too. Food wasn't amazing but not bad either. For the price I think they should give a little more meat. Side note for picture this is not the amount of meat they give you I took some of my hubby's ribs. read more

Gus's Barbecue - Smoked Tri-Tip with Braised Southern Greens and mac n cheese. - Barbeque Near Me - Claremont, California

The food is always excellent! The staff are friendly, but since they're so popular and busy, the service can be slow. Make sure to dine when you're not in a big hurry! Brunch and lunch both shine so you really can't order wrong. I love their breakfast sammie and my hubs loves the ribs sandwich. The outdoor seating is nice because there's always a nice breeze and it keeps our littles entertained people watching. Definitely check this place out! read more

Gus's Barbecue is located on the east side of the Claremont Packing district. Parking is easy as there is a multi-level parking garage right next door. They have plenty of tables and booths inside, as well as seating at the bar with a view out front. Their outdoor patio is as big, if not bigger, than the inside space and has rotating fans above as well as heat lamps for when it's cold. Between the garage structure next door and being on the east side of the building, the patio is probably almost always shaded. It was such a nice day out, I sat out on the patio and you could tell that everyone was enjoying the atmosphere. While waiting for my food, I ordered the Blueberry Lemon Sour (Bourbon, amaretto, blueberry, lemon, vanilla foam, $14). If I didn't like it, it definitely looked good. Similar to my recent appreciation for well balanced Mezcal cocktails, well balanced Bourbon cocktails have also caught my fancy. The Bourbon is the dominant flavor, but the amaretto is not far behind. The lemon and muddled blueberry is in the background. This well balanced cocktail was a home run, and a bargain at only $14. I had the five bone Memphis Baby Back Ribs plate ($25.95), with sides of sautéed green beans and coleslaw. It must have been my lucky day, because my slab actually had six bones. The meat was cooked well, and came off the bone very easily. There was a good amount of meat on the bones, and I probably wouldn't have been able to finish the eight bone option. They have several BBQ sauces on the table. I tried three and liked them all. My favorites in order were the Memphis original (nice sweetness), Kansas City spicy (good spice level with sweetness in the background), and Carolina Gold (mustard forward with a little tang). They provide a wet nap to wipe your hands when you're done. The green beans were not mushy at all, and had great flavor prepared with light butter and garlic. The coleslaw was also very good with just the right amount of dressing which had a little tang. The portion size of the sides was good. My main server Ashley was friendly provided great service. The host who seated me and a few other servers who also delivered food and drink were also very friendly. A manager was walking around to make sure that everybody was enjoying their meal. All the food and drink was excellent. BBQ is expensive these days and both the cocktail and ribs were very reasonably priced. Five stars all the way! read more

Omg the brisket was so freaking tender u could cut it with your fork. I'm not gonna lie when I saw the fat on there I was like dang man, but it's cooked so well it literally melts in your mouth. The creamed corn, I could eat a big bowl of it. The baked beans are okay, but not bad, just not my fav. All in all 9/10. The service was fantastic also. Heads up, if you're going on the weekend, make a reservation. It's packed! Will definitely be back & want to try their brunch! read more

Enjoyed a Labor Day brunch here--glad we reserved a booth inside because it was already 90 degrees at noon. We ordered the tritip with garlic mashed potatoes and braised string beans and pulled pork tostada. Perfectly cooked tender meat and good tangy flavors. Most outdoor seating has at least an umbrella for shade. Staff were rushing around because it was busy, yet they also managed to be attentive and helpful. read more

Met up with friends for dinner and drinks on a Saturday night. Gus's Barbeque had mixed reviews, but that has never stopped us before! I wouldn't say I'm a BBQ expert, but I do know good food when I taste it! And I taste-bud-verified excellence tonight. Our reservation was for a table on the patio because that morning the restaurant was already booked up for indoor seating. The restaurant sits right next to the parking structure, which means a built-in audience of foot traffic, car alarms, and the occasional well-timed car horn for dramatic effect. We ordered drinks while waiting for the rest of our party. The temperature outside kept dropping so we requested to move to a table under the heater. This could of went south but our waitress was accommodating. It took a minute but we made it happen. I didn't know what to order. I didn't want a salad, and I definitely didn't want to eat with my fingers, so I went out of the box and ordered the BBQ Loaded Baked Potato with no Texas Queso and added pulled pork. It was delicious, the portion was perfect, and the potato itself was fluffy and creamy like a warm hug from a carb loving grandma. My only critique would be I wish it had more bacon on top because I'm certifiably obsessed with bacon! My husband ordered the Memphis baby back ribs, and he devoured them like a man on a mission. They must have been good. It comes with two sides and he doubled-up on the French fries. So to my benefit I did eat some of his French fries. The French fries were addicting really crispy and flavorful. My friend had the Texas prime beef brisket sandwich. It looked really good I need to come back to give it a try. I would also like to try the Mac n cheese and corn bread. So this review will have to be continued!!! All in all, Gus's Barbeque delivered a night out with friends that was equal parts deliciousness and laughter. If you're looking for a solid bite, a patio vibe, and a menu with many options this place is a yes from this crew! read more

My first time at the Claremont location and I love it!! The vibe is really nice and gives you a vacation vibe how one side of the bar is outside. We sat at the bar inside and it was very nice. We had very good service with a server I think name was Dana or Deena. Very good service and super attentive with good personality. For my drinks I ordered the Mai tai and sangria and it was my first time trying their Mai Tai's and they were really good and not too much sugar. For food options we ordered the honey wings and artichoke dip that was very good and fresh. Everything tasted really well. It's a good location to come to and grab a drink and enjoy the vibe. It's in downtown Claremont and very clean modern area. I will come back to this location for sure! I had a good time and great atmosphere! -Marshay read more

6/29/25 Amazing & delicious food, attentive service & casual indoor/outdoor dining. It's a great spot to get your bbq on! Not too many places for dining are open in Claremont, thankfully, Gus's was still open on a Sunday night past 9 pm. Our server was Kelly who took our order & got our drinks right away. We requested to have the corn bread at the same time when our meal was delivered. Within a reasonable amount of time, our food was ready: baby back ribs, pulled pork & tri tip-- everything was tasty & so tender. The seasoning was perfect. For sides, we opted for sweet potato fries & green beans, super! Glad we shared the combo coz it was a good amount portion-wise. It was nice breezy night & we dined on the patio, quite comfortable. Free parking nearby (street parking & a parking structure at the packing district) made this a great place to dine & look for other venues for dining & other places for shopping or just hanging out. read more

Gus's Barbecue *August 6, 2025 *12pm- Wednesday *4 Stars Environment: *Moderate Sized Parking Lot *Indoor and Outdoor Seating *Attentive Service Food/Drink: *Cornbread *BBQ Seared Steak Salad (no blue cheese) Such a cute and taste place in downtown Claremont. Gus's has a very nice and casual environment with indoor and outdoor seating. There is a large parking structure right next door. Service was good and very attentive. One small issue was the seating, as someone who is 5'4'', sitting in the chairs at the high table was a bit uncomfortable getting up and down (since my feet was able to touch the ground). I ordered the BBQ Seared Steak Salad without blue cheese and a side of cornbread. The steak on its own was a little salty for my taste, but it worked well when eaten with the salad. The cornbread was cooked in a small iron skillet, which gave it a nice crispy. Very enjoyable, looking forward to coming again to try something new. read more

Had a work conference nearby so I had to come stop by Gus's BBQ! We got the cheddar jalapeño sausage, ribs, brisket, and mashed potatoes, which were all very spot on! We especially enjoyed the brisket because it has consistently been moist and tender each time we have had it, which can really effect the entire experience if it comes out dry, which was not the case at all. We sat outside on the porch area on a sunny day, so the ambience was nice, especially with the nice weather that particular day made an already great experience that much better! read more

First time coming here with the hubs and pup. We are trying to find more pet friendly places so we can include our fur son. Sat outside. Super nice weather today. Plenty of shade. It was nice because there wasn't too many people but still a lot of distractions to continue to train our pup (he's 3 1/2 but still call him my pup) in public situations. Had the cast iron skillet cornbread and it was everything that all the reviews say. Melt in your mouth goodness. I did not try the jalapeno jam but the honey butter was good. I ordered the fried chicken with the mashed potatoes and collard greens. Everything was great. The mashed potatoes were very creamy. I would have liked some texture in them, but good flavor overall. Husband got the gumbo. Shrimps were tender. Felt like I there wasn't a lot of protien included. 5 or so whole shrimp, very little sausage and chicken. Mainly veggies. The overall taste was good, just need to add a little more protein. Will more than likely return since it is dog friendly and maybe try some actual BBQ! read more

Back in the Claremont packing district, this time to try Gus's Barbecue. Reservations recommended if you are planning to go on a Friday or Saturday night, but if you don't mind waiting, your typically looking at a 45 minute to an hr waiting depending on how busy it is. Once there I was sat quickly. Inside was loud but not noisy, was still able to talk. They had country music playing so that was a nice touch. For drinks, I got the Charred Citrus Mule (pictured) - Vodka/grilled lemon syrup/lime/ginger beer. 2nd drink was the Hibiscus Margarita (pictured) - Hibiscus-infused Blanco tequila/licor 43/grapefruit/agave/lime. Both drinks were strong, flavorful and refreshing. 1 star. For the appetizer, I got the classic spinach and artichoke dip. Pretty standard, housemade seasoned chips and charred salsa, which i think I ate more of the salsa than the dip 1 star. I did also have a house salad tossed in ranch, everything was going good until I bit into the housemade croutons which almost chipped my tooth!! LoL I was really excited about the croutons but it was a major fail cause they were hard as a rock and tasted days old. No stars for that snafu. For entrees I tried the BBQ Loaded Baked Potato and the BBQ Brisket Tacos (both pictured) The baked potato, was a good size, drenched in Texas Queso topped with bacon, shredded cheddar and chopped brisket. While it was hearty, it lacked brisket, I feel like I got 2 tablespoons of brisket but a half cup of bacon! More potato and bacon than brisket topping, it was still good though. 1/2 a star The brisket tacos though, DELICIOUS AF! Topped with the Original BBQ sauce, fire roasted corn pico, ancho salsa, Monterey jack, cilantro and pickled red onion. They pair these flavors perfectly with each bit i got a heart serving of brisket, the toppings and the flavor. Served with a side of chips or your choice. 1 and a half star for the tacos. All in all Gus's BBQ is a change up for your normal BBQ spots like Lucille's. Service is quick and friendly. Food and drinks are good, depending on you palette and a solid location for a night out. Will I be back, I think I will be. If your ever in Claremont swing by Gus's for a drink or a bite, you'll enjoy it! read more

Update to my review. Came to have dinner with friends. First thing, from last time to now, I got sticker shock. We started with corn bread which was still good. After that we got combo meals. At first I thought 3 meat combo would be a lot of food. I been to other restaurants and 3 meat combo is a lot. But when we got served, I said in my head "that's it!?" Then brisket was dry and so were ribs. It's ok now but I'm not going out of my way to eat here. read more

Gus's Barbecue - 3 meat combo - Barbeque Near Me - Claremont, California

Food and service was excellent. The ambience was mellow and not too loud. Perfect atmosphere for a quick bite or date night.

I came here on the weekend so the Claremont Village area was packed. I did have to park far and walk for errands. I was seated quickly at the bar since I came by myself. I have been trying various brisket from restaurants in the area. This place had a ribs and 2 meat combo plate ($33.95), so I got their brisket, smoked sausage, and Memphis baby back ribs to try with their lemonade. The brisket was tender with a good smoke ring, the table had bottles of various bbq sauce to try with the meats. The smoke sausage had a good snap and was moist. The baby back ribs were tender and came off the bone easily. The place is loud with the tables filled with people inside and on the outside patio. They did have sports playing on the tv and people milling about the floor. The wait time was not long and my platter arrived quickly. The staff is nice and the place is clean. read more

Gus's Barbecue - patio area - Barbeque Near Me - Claremont, California

I don't go to Gus's enough, I don't think. First of all, I love their Southern fried chicken ($22.95). The entree comes with half a boneless chicken, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, braised southern greens + classic gravy. Don't come for me, but I kind of like that I can knife and fork a boneless piece of chicken. Boneless or not, this chicken is so juicy with a nice crispy batter. Dunk a lil piece into the gravy and it's the most perfect bite. I also like ordering the pulled pork nachos ($16.95). The chips come topped with a three cheese sauce, bbq baked beans, smoked mozzarella, jack cheese, tomato, red onion, guacamole, pickled jalapeños, cilantro + original bbq sauce. There's a whole lot going on with the nachos, but they're not so inundated that it looks or tastes overwhelming. There's just the right amount of everything for a bbq themed nacho situation. Gus's is a solid spot if you're looking for a lil BBQ. read more

My partner and I came on a Friday night, I believe and we were sat immediately on their outdoor patio. It was nice that we didn't have to wait considering that Gus's is very popular and it was a Friday! Our server was super great! It's been a few weeks since we've gone and sadly I don't remember her name, but I would hope to run into her again on our next visit. She was super nice and even recommended me the Hurricane cocktail as I was having trouble selecting what I want. Our food was extremely delicious as well! The pulled pork nachos came out at as an appetizer and we devoured them like there was no tomorrow. The meat was fresh and everything together just melted in your mouth! For our entree we got the 2 ribs combo. I honestly forgot the meats we picked but again, they just melted in your mouth. Our table was nice and clean and I truly just loved the vibe of the restaurant. They were also kind enough to turn on the heaters as it was a bit chilly outside. Thank you Gus's!!! :) read more

Stopped by Gus for a late Sunday lunch after a snowy morning in Mt Baldy. We were seated in ~20min for a party of five. Our table ordered the cast iron cornbread to start; it was quick, fresh, and almost like a bit of a "pudding" texture in the middle. Our table loved it with the butter and jalepeno jam, since we find most corn breads to be on the drier and grainy side. Our favorite meat by far was the Memphis baby back ribs! So tender, full of flavor, and the right amount of fat. This didn't need any sauce, perfect on its own. The St. Louis ribs were definitely on the drier side. The tri tip was tender, but it did need some bbq sauce. Our favorite sides were the creamed corn and potato salad. Both were flavorful and a perfect blend of flavors. Beef flight was only 8.5, great value. read more

I've been to Gus's BBQ in Claremont many times, and every visit has been consistently great. Whether dining in or catering, the service is always top-notch. The staff is attentive, kind, and genuinely welcoming. Our most recent visit was for my daughter's birthday--her one request was Gus's mac and cheese. Our server, Kate, was incredibly sweet with her, and as any parent knows, you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat your kids. My wife and I really appreciated that extra kindness. Since we went mid-week on a rainy evening, the restaurant was quieter than usual, which was a nice change from the typically lively weekend crowd. I started with an Arnold Palmer, which was perfectly balanced, and we shared an order of sweet potato fries--crispy, flavorful, and paired with an amazing dipping sauce (not sure what's in it, but it was a hit with everyone). For my main meal, I went with the ribs and two-meat platter, choosing St. Louis ribs, brisket, and jalapeño cheddar sausage. Every bite was packed with flavor, and I devoured it all. My sides--creamed corn and dirty rice--were just as good. To top off an already great meal, they brought out a sundae for my daughter's birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. If you're looking for great BBQ, a warm atmosphere, and excellent service, Gus's BBQ never disappoints. read more

THANK YOU, GUS! Family was in town for a lacrosse tournament, and we had no clue where to go in this region, as I do not get out of L.A. much. Pomona was scary abandoned.

I went with a party of 11 and was good. We were seated at inside without a wait for a Saturday night, I had just ordered water to drink when it came we were ready to order appetizers and entrees including cornbread (very good), chips with spinach and queso dips (good), onion strings (good but greasy), and then entree was two meat with ribs combo. Server Kelly suggested Memphis style with more meat than St Louis and he's right. I chose beef brisket and sides fries and Mac and cheese. Our orders didn't take long; ribs were good, both brisket and fries were too salty and Mac and cheese was good. I didn't had room for dessert. I didn't try and any sauces by the way. The place was clean, server was friendly though didn't asked me how was meal was or I would've asked to replaced the fries Will return . read more

We came to the Claremont packing district to check it out and decided to give this place a try. We love BBQ, so we are pretty picky (we look for good quality meat, the taste of the sauce, and the overall quality of the food). The pros, it's a cute place with okay service. Our server wasn't attentive at all, but someone did notice we needed refills and brought them. We started with some appetizers, which were okay- I would compare this place to Lucilles and honestly it is subpar. It is pricey! So just be aware of that. The meat (brisket and pulled pork) were extremely fatty and lacked flavor, the ribs my son got were not tender, and the sauces were okay, our favorite part of the meal was the Mac and cheese. Based on the service and quality of food, we wouldn't be back. It's not the worst BBQ place, but for the price point there are plenty o of places we enjoy more. read more

Super cheerful & patient (shout out to Kristina w/a K)!!! 3 Ambiance was decent, silverware was clean, table clean, plates smelled clean (I know I sound like a freak), surrounding floor was a tad dirty and could use a quick mopping.  All together I would be back, I've gone to the Pasadena location as it is closer to where I live, but my daughter was meeting her college girlfriends & we figured we'd give it a shot.
