    Breakfast burrito. Sorry for the bites I couldn't wait!!
    Mr C.

    Rolled through Big Pine hungry on my way to Bishop and stumbled on this tiny Mexican & BBQ spot. First warning: parking is a little limited and it's cash only -- so leave the credit cards in the glove box and bring some bills. I didn't try the BBQ (my stomach was on a breakfast-only mission), but the breakfast burrito? Absolute legend. Big enough to double as a free weight, and stuffed so generously I wondered if they were trying to feed me for the whole day. Flavor? Spot on. The kind of burrito that makes you question why you ever settled for a drive-thru version. The kind on burrito your mom makes. If you're cruising through Big Pine, do yourself a favor: fight for a parking spot, slap some cash on the counter, and get the burrito. Your future self will thank you. Great salsa as well.

    Came here because Coppers had a LOOOOONG line. I got the chirozo, egg and potato breakfast burrito and my husband got the tritip breakfast burrito. Nothing fancy, just what you would want breakfast burritos to taste like in my opinion. We both enjoyed it very much!! Service was quick and they also have bathrooms and shaded outdoor seating. They do only take cash or Zelle though. And chango, the chihuahua, did not disappoint! He was on the clock out back providing security :P. In the end, we were thankful we ended up here instead!

    Hugo's BBQ. Just as you leave Big Pine, CA heading N (or as you arrive in Big Pine heading S) on 395.

    Fantastic breakfast burrito. Outside seating overlooking the beautiful Sierras. Open at 6 am!! Also great coffee. And super nice cook!!

    Pork Rib Plate $12.99 (1/5) really dry, potato salad was good

    See all

Potato salad was good and mac was nice and creamy! We love the spicy bbq sauce as well! Overall everything was delicious and food came out fast.

    We were in Bishop around dinner time looking for somewhere to eat. We looked on Yelp and saw this…read moreBBQ restaurant had pretty good reviews. I love good BBQ and it's hard to find in California. My sister lives in the south and they have great BBQ, but we noticed they have tri-tip on the menu which is not a cut you find in the south, so we decided to try it out. There was a line to the door when we walked in. The line moved fairly quickly and we were still deciding what to order when we got to the front. My son only wanted Mac N Cheese. My sister and I decided to split a sampler with tri-tip, brisket, and hot link with mac N cheese, cornbread, and a baked potato. We found a seat and there a few BBQ sauces on the table. Our food came out within 5 minutes. The food looked great. My son who really only likes chicken for protein saw the tri-tip and thought it looked great. My son ended up eating as much as we did, he loved it. The tri-tip and the brisket were perfectly seasoned and smoked. They were some of the best I've had. The hot link, was good, but not my favorite thing. It was quite spicy which was fine, I didn't love the texture as much. The mac N cheese was good. The bakes potato was over cooked and the skin was a little tough and not edible. The cornbread was good. The sauces were quite tasty. I liked the spicy and even my picky son loved the spicy. Overall it was a very nice meal and the service was great. The employees were very friendly and welcoming.

The meal also came with a piece of cornbread. The cost of the sampler is $28. Brisket had a decent bark, although im not certain both sides of the brisket was seasoned but it was pretty tender. The smoke on the brisket was pretty aggressive, leaving ALMOST a bitter taste. Thankfully, I like a pretty aggressive smoke. Nice smoke flavor on the tri tip but also seemed to lack seasoning. Was otherwise pretty good. The sausage ended up tasting pretty good! The beans might have been ever so slightly undercooked, but otherwise tasted good. The mac and cheese says it is baked, but honestly, its hard to tell aside from the burnt cheese on top. Other than that, it was alright. The best part of the experience was the servers. They were super friendly and regularly checked on the guests. All in all, the food was just ok. Not sure it would be my first choice in eating spots in town though, especially considering the prices.

Hubby and I stopped in for a late lunch on our journey home after a quick trip to Disneyland the day prior. It's a long drive, so Bishop is about halfway to home. We don't like traveling with leftovers, so we often share a meal. Yesterday was the Bluey Armstrong burger with a side of the garlic Parmesan fries. The burger was great! Juicy, cooked to perfection, and so flavorful. But the fries? For the love of all that's good those fries sent me on a trip straight to heaven. I wouldn't say I'm a fry snob, but I do know what I like, and these were possibly the best garlic parm fries I've ever had. So much so that I told my hubby I'd recommend going on a 6 hour girls' trip just for the fries. (My gal pals and I do weird trips for stuff like this.) Long story short(ish) stop here for food. You will be saying "get in my belly" with the only regret that it isn't closer to your home. Unless you live in Bisho, in which case you are a lucky person.

Aaron Schat's Roadhouse came up as the best suggestion and it did not disappoint! It was only 11am but we started with 2 pints of Coor's lol.

The fries were so crispy. 1 basket of fries would have been enough to share but we ordered 2 not knowing and force fed ourselves to finish it all lol. We will definitely add this to our bishop stop on future trips!
