This place is awesome! The chef/owner was so kind when I came to pick up my order. The restaurant…read moreitself is pretty small so there is limited seating, and is pretty no-frills, but the food and the service speak for themselves! I had the pulled pork on a hot dog bun. The pulled pork was fantastic, great sauce, generous amount of meat. The potato salad was BOMB. So good! The coleslaw was very solid. I like Cole slaw a little tangier, but this was a good version as well. I added some honey to my cornbread and it was so delicious. I would definitely come back! I hope everyone supports this local restaurant! Yes it's street parking, but there was plenty of parking on the block in front of the restaurant. You can definitely find parking.

Pretty good barbecue!…read more We ordered several combo platters, sampling through a variety of meats. The Spareribs and Brisket were very flavorful and satisfying - but if I had to nitpick, the 'cue could've been just a bit more tender - the texture was just a shade off of the true "gold standard" sort of barbecue that I've had in the past. Nevertheless - the bold, smoky flavors hit the spot - impressive stuff overall! Would recommend. PS - The beer selection here ain't too shabby, either!

I HOPE CORPORATE GETS WIND OF THIS REVIEW!!! This is the Long Beach on Pine establishment to be…read moreclear. I would like to give this place a negative starts. To say service is very poor would be understatement. Arrived on Saturday and sat at open seating in the bar area at a table. After waiting over 30 minutes (and just observing the lady that was working the section socializing with guest like she could care less about helping take my order). So after waiting and watching the two lady bar servers continue to have extended conversations and pretty much ignoring myself and my guest...I walked to the bar and asked the bartender if anyone was taking orders in the open seating indoor area that we were sitting at. The bartender told me that the ladies working the section had to help wash dishes and basically unable to take myself and my guest orders. We ended up walking out and went to a neighboring restaurant along the waterfront strip. How hard would have it had been to take a couple of orders or at the very least say "Hello" or "Give us a minute we are a little busy". Don't keep talking to your favorite customers and continue to walk by myself and my guest without saying something. The whole vibe seemed like the moral at this establishment with this shift is very low. Teach your servers to engage with all guest instead of have social hour during their shift...at the bare minimum again, a simple "hello" or "I'll help you in a moment" This happened on Saturday 02/28/2026 from 4pm through 4:35 pm (if management wants to look at the cameras and see just how disengaged the staff was during this shift).

Previously, I said the mac & cheese was dry. The owner told me that it had to have been an anomaly…read morecause it's not supposed to be that way. I trusted the process and came back months later and he told zero lies. Not dry at all and so so so so so so good. I got the two meat combo. Pulled pork and tri-tip. Out of this world. That cornbread is something to dream about. The greens are absolutely fantastic. It's kind of insane.

Let me get straight to the point. Excellent BBQ…read more We tried the brisket sandwich. Brioche bun was light and fluffy. The brisket was incredible. It almost tasted candied a bit. Definite brown sugar caramelization happening. Tender and not too sweet. Side of cole slaw was great. Not drowning in mayo. Light and fresh. The Mac&Cheese was cheesy delicious. Gouda cheese to be exact. My favorite was the brisket chili. Tiny bit of heat but not too much. Great flavor. The banana pudding was....To. Die. For. Wow! Lots of real banana and homemade whip cream. The freshly squeezed lemonade is a Must. Will definitely be back.

DINNER FOR TWO SPECIAL…read more I don't know what's up with the mid reviews, this place is great for what it is!! Walking in is like being transported out of Long Beach and to the south.... Or a diner in big bear lake. It's charming. Anyways, I ordered the dinner for 2 for my mother and father. It came with a bit of bbq chicken, half rack of ribs, tri tip, catfish, cornbread, 2 sides, okra, sweet Potatoe fries and fried green tomatoes. I ordered myself a full rack baby back rib combo and it also came with two sides. French fries and mac. On top of that I ordered some hush puppies . I did not realize that I ordered that much food!!! It was sooo much. Cornbread - meh doesn't really have enough flavor but it's warm and you can add butter. The catfish- the breading was nice and crispy. French fries and mac and cheese- you can't ness that up. The tri tip- probably the best protein that we ate. Very soft. Ribs- needed more bbq sauce but you can order more. It was way better the next day when I heated them up. Chicken- I didn't eat it. My mom did. Hush puppies- fried cornbread. Not my thing. Sweet Potatoe fries- staple Fried green tomatoes- surprised me, that was actually good for literally a fried green tomato Okra- first bites, amazing, after a few it was too soggy for me. Just get the dinner for two. It's more than enough and you get to try a little bit of everything for 58 + dollars. Was it amazing? Not everything, but I appreciate the portion sizes and the variety.

I was so excited to try this place after a former co-worker raved about the food. I was also…read moreexcited because it was located so close to my residence. I ordered delivery so expected the food to be more lukewarm than hot but was excited about the taste! It arrived and smelled wonderful and was surprisingly still steaming hot when I dig into the bag. Sadly, the flavor on the ribs was a fun and spicy as I prefer. But I was hopeful the strawberry lemonade would be a life changing as I was told. I grabbed a straw, punctured the cup, and took a big gulp waiting for the sugar high I was craving! Sadly, it too was less than I desired. Then the Mac and cheese wasn't as flavorful either. I began wondering what type of pallet my co-worker had? This is BBQ for babies. I did finish the food but definitely had to do some "doctoring up" of my own. C'mon Johnny, reach for the stars! Kick up the flavor and add more suga' to that lemonade! Every time I see you when I drive by, I wanna get excited but it just isn't happening...yet. I'll give it another try someday.

Tiny portions, ordered the short ribs bowl and mahi bowl…read more The short rib bowl came with ONE rib! Not worth the price whatsoever. The fish bowl had one piece of fish. Was still hungry afterwards.

Came across LA Brisket on social media and decided to try it since it's about 20+ minutes from me…read more I got the brisket bowl, about eight thin slices of brisket, slaw, two scoops of rice, and a green sauce. The rice tasted like Filipino garlic rice, which was a nice touch. Overall, really good. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and didn't need extra sauce, which I always look for in good BBQ. Portion was solid for around $15-$16+. Customer service was great, everyone was friendly and welcoming. It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall in a plaza, but there's plenty of parking. Inside is dim but clean, and the wooden seating fits the BBQ vibe. I'd definitely come back.

I ordered the brisket bowl with baked beans on the side and a Sunkist Orange Soda…read more The brisket was the highlight. Tender, juicy, and full of smoky flavor. It had a good bark on it and didn't feel dry at all. The bowl was filling and everything worked well together. The baked beans were a solid side, slightly sweet and hearty, and paired nicely with the brisket. The Sunkist was cold and refreshing and balanced out the meal. The spot itself is casual and easygoing, and the staff was friendly. Food came out hot and fresh without a long wait. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm craving a good brisket fix. Highly recommend.
