Okay, this place is a hidden gem! BBQ is getting harder and harder to come by, so when you find a spot that actually delivers... you hold onto it!!! The inside is definitely giving "we're here for the BBQ, not the interior design" Nothing fancy, very simple, but honestly... who cares when the food is this good?! The tri-tip was SO good, and the ribs and beans? TO DIE FOR!!! Now, the rolls... They were okay, but I personally needed them to be a little fluffier. I need me that soft, buttery, cloud-like roll & these just weren't it! Overall, the food was amazing, the service was great, and I'll absolutely be coming back. If you're craving good BBQ, put this place on your list! read more

Always a great time getting food to go. Good quality and price is reasonable. Tri tip is my favorite meat from Rosie's. Easy to order online or on phone. Suitable parking in the back (or street). read more

For July 4th, I was really craving some good BBQ and came across this place on Google while searching for some spots. I normally love to do stuff like picnics at the park or grilling at the beach, but since I have such a damaged, boring, broken,devided and dysfunctional family, my son and I just decided to come have lunch together. Turns out we were overly dressed for such a casual spot. Established in 1996, this place is clean and average sized. We walked in around 3:30pm on Saturday. There are plenty of tables available for dine-in, or you can place a to-go order as many people were doing. We saw so many people come in to pick up their orders while we were eating. They offer various BBQ options such as pork ribs, beef ribs, tri-tip, and chicken. They even have different combo packages for groups of 2-20, and even more if you wanted to do catering. The prices are very affordable and the portions are generous. Ashley took our order and Iris brought it out to our table. They were both pleasant and helpful. The customer service was great. My son and I both opted for the BBQ Pork Rib lunch special, which comes with a Half Rack of Ribs, 1 dinner roll, and 1 side ($12.95). I got mine with Spanish rice and an additional side of coleslaw (+$2.95). My son chose a garden salad as his side and we also got a medium fountain drink to share ($2.60). Our entire total with tip came out to $39.23. A great deal! We even got an extra rib on our rack, which was a nice surprise. The ribs were not too saucy and not too greasy, just how I like it. They have self-serve station of bottles of extra BBQ sauce (regular and spicy) if you want more. There are also condiment packets like ketchup, mustard, etc...The meat itself was tender and flavorful, and I liked both of my sides. They were a bit small, but altogether a pretty hefty and mighty meal. The temperature of the food was not hot and lukewarm at best. They have one very clean bathroom with all the essentials fully stocked in there. They also have a parking lot with ample amount of spots. There was a TV playing the World Cup way too loud and it was really annoying and distracting. We had a good enough experience here, but I don't think I'll return. Also, they had ran out of wet naps, which is unfortunate for a BBQ restaurant on the 4th of July. They also don't have any dessert/coffee, which I think would be great to have here! I also noticed they put up their "closed" signs on the doors at 4:30, 30 minutes before their closing time. Thanks for a good lunch, but for me, nothing will beat Tony Roma's for the best ribs ever! read more

I've driven past Rosie's for decades and never stopped in until tonight. The only thing you could hear was the tv. The young lady sitting at the cash register didn't greet us, didn't assist us with the menu, just stared at us until we ordered. After we ordered, another woman handed us two cups. She didn't tell us were the drinks or silverware were, we found them while walking. Everything was fairly clean. Mostly 2 and 4 seat tables. We ordered the family meal for 2 with tri tip. The two sides were baked beans and Mac and cheese. The tri tip was delicious! 5/5. However, it was probably the worst mac and cheese I've ever had. It was mushy, no flavor with the exception of butter 1/5. I didn't care for the baked beans as I thought they tasted like ketchup, but my son did eat them 2/5. The garlic rolls were good 4/5. Unfortunately, we most likely won't be back. read more

They have indoor seating. Pretty simple place. We ordered to-go. The beans, coleslaw and potato salad were good. The Tri-Tip came with au jus sauce. Delicious together. The ribs were delicious. They also have a really spicy BBQ sauce. The rolls were okay. read more

2 stars for their delicious sweet but savory baked beans and cheesy Mac n cheese. Negative 3 stars for their dried beyond dried, chicken, ribs and tri-tip. All 3 meats were so rubbery, dry, hard and overly cooked. So disappointing to pay almost $400 for food people couldn't enjoy. Service was horrible too. The two girls in the front were cool girls just talking to the guys in the back and didnt even pay attention to the customers coming in. They handed me all our trays then walked away. They didn't even offer to help me, nor condiments, utensil, napkins, plates or anything. One girl kept on asking the other girl if our catering order came with bbq sauce and other essential. read more

It had been far too long when I arrived at Rosie's in August to pick up some Tri-Tip to go. Today I was HUN-GRY, so I also ordered the pork rib lunch special. MAN! Requested the beef on the rare side, since I had a bit of a drive and this was meant for dinner, but when I got home, I couldn't help myself and tore into that perfect end tip before sitting down with my ribs. It was SO YUM!!! 20 mins later, I was in a satiated BBQ coma! 20 minutes after that, I was thinking about that Tri-Tip dinner! lol I simply MUST remember to swing by for Rosie's awesome Trip-Tip more often. I can't make it this good at home and the price is so down right fair - why should I try?!? An ala carte 1/2 Tri-Tip, with current beef surcharge, is $21.25 as of Aug 2025. That 1/2 size was 2 dinners and 2 lunches for 2 adults. Ask any firefighter in West SFV, they'll tell you Rosie's is the place to be. Cheers! "CC" read more

Had the baby back ribs, mashed potatoes with gravy,salad & roll for lunch. The ribs tasted dry & like left overs from 2-3 days old. Salad was ok Mashed potatoes & gravy were ok. I won't be rushing back any time soon. read more

Everytime we order from here something gets confused. The food itself is delicious as always though. Husband specifically asked if the ranch was in the bags and he was told yes. I waited in the car but I knew I should've checked the containers before leaving. We got home just to realize that not only was there no ranch for the French fries but they replaced the one and only thing I wanted with potato salad. It was fine but we literally go for the mashed potatoes. Such a disappointment. I'll do better and double check from now on. read more

Did they hire a bunch of homeless people to work here cause they definitely don't know how to cook ribs? Very horrible experience this place ribs under cooked. Look at pic. Tri tip had a ton of fat on it! read more

It was great food got the smoked turkey sandwich and the baby back ribs, great flavors. Will definitely be going back for more bbq.

Food is amazing. Had pork ribs and chicken. Homemade potato chips and barbecue beans are very tasty. Our new go to for barbecue. read more

If you can get past the disheveled interior, they may be remodeling, the meats are great. This place has been around forever. Prices were inline with other restaurants and the service was quick and friendly. Not a place to take a date but your buddies might enjoy it. I did read more

Always call for to go orders . Tri tip plate with French fries is my go to every time . Each time tri tip and steak fries are cook perfect

Tried this several times. Food is excellent, but the wait was 25 minutes with no line on the second visit. Some parking in the lot

Rosie's bbq hands down is the BEST bbq around... the quality of food is top notch and service is fast & efficient. Small atmosphere with big flavor & portion. read more

First time I ordered from here it was great! I got a full slab of ribs and bbq beans. The ribs were so tender and they included a side of bbq sauce which was great to dip the ribs into. So I ordered again today, my friend was here and she wanted ribs so she ordered a half slab and I ordered a full slab. The food comes and first I couldn't even tell which container had the full slab, both looked like half slabs, the ribs were so dry and there was no bbq sauce. So dry, and such a bummer with no bbq sauce, spent $25 for a full slab I can't even eat. Also got The shredded onions which were only ok, they are super dry, not sure if they are suppose to come with a dipping sauce or not but they didn't. Such a bummer cause the first time was soooo freaking good, but now after spending a total of $60 something on these dry ribs with no sauce, I won't be able to justify ordering from them again. read more

The staff is super nice and friendly. The food quality and flavor has drastically declined over the years. I was given nearly raw chicken and tough brisket. The brisket was so tough that after the third attempt at chewing it, I dumped the entire thing into the garbage. read more

Yum. What great food, sides and sauces here. Definitely will be back! Very casual setting and nothing fancy. Which shows they are dedicated to the menu. read more

Rosie's BBQ Kitchen has been solid when it comes to placing a catering order. Each time I've done catering, I can depend on Scott to get my order in within a 1-2 day notice! This is definitely a neighborhood mom-and-pop BBQ joint. The restaurant is located in Chatsworth near the intersection of Topanga Canyon Blvd/Devonshire. Parking is easy since there is a small (but free) lot. From the outside it may look closed but they are definitely open for business. If you plan to stop by, my personal favorite is the baby back ribs because of how juicy and tender the meat is. Also I've never been a fan of coleslaw but Rosie's has changed my mind! read more

Super chill place! The food was so delicious. We had the beef ribs for two, Mac-n-cheese, baked beans, coleslaw and garlic rolls. Staff was very nice , excellent service and juice ribs! Can't wait to come back. read more

Came here after work with a co worker/friend and he and I thought the woman behind the counter wasn't friendly and didn't make eye contact. Our food came out quickly but we were the only ones in there and once again the parking lot was packed with cars. Burger: dry with no flavor. Pulled Pork: dry with no flavor. Fries: too much seasoning and some stuff as a rock. Spicy bbq sauce isn't spicy and we both agree it tasted tangy. 03/04/25 we were there. - 03/07/25 my co worker said let's not go there again. read more

Ordered a full slab of baby back ribs via Doordash. What I got was some pile of thick fatty chunks of meat with no semblance to any baby backs I've ever had before. Nasty tough chunks of meat. Some with bones, some without. Do they look like the menu picture to you? Still have no idea what I actually got! read more

They used to be the best at bbq need ribs. The last two times I received over priced burnt beef ribs with very little meat on them. I hope they get back to their original beef ribs. The service is good, nice people. Ambiance is like a take out counter. read more

Awesome little spot for some pretty good bbq! I've had their bbq chicken as well as their baby back ribs.. husband loves their tri tip sandwich which comes with their dipping sauce.. Their portions are humungo!!! read more

What a delicious surprise! We've been driving by without stopping for a long time. We read reviews prior to going and we were prepared for "average". What we got was exceptional! Beef ribs, spare ribs, tri tip sandwich, cole slaw, beans, and Mac and cheese! All of the meat was outstanding! Tender, delicious, and a nice amount of smoke. The slaw and mac and cheese were also outstanding. The beans were "fine", but nothing to really talk about. They have a Nashville hot chicken sandwich to try next! The service was fast and friendly! The place lends itself to the idea of a dive rib joint. Nothing fancy at all...wooden tables and chairs and a counter and self-serve drinks and utensils and BBQ sauce. We will definitely go back. We still want to try the chicken and pulled pork. Pricing was a fair value, too! read more

Disappointed in food. Tri trip, nothing special kind of dry and cold, bbq sauce saved it 3/5 Mac and cheese, not that cheesy tasting and overcooked noodles 3/5 Potato salad, way to much mayo, just tasted like mayo and potatoes 2/5 Garlic butter roll, very dry need more butter maybe and salt 2/5 Caesar salad, I wouldn't even consider this a Caesar salad, it's just croutons (stale tasting) and lettuce with a ranch type dressing. If it had better croutons, actually Caesar dressing, and Parmesan it would actually be good. 1/5 Overall, I don't think I would come back. If I do I would try something different than these items. read more

Simply great BBQ! Good quality at a great price. Delicious side dishes too! If you're close, give it a try.

This was the worst food I could have ordered!!! The potato Salad was like someone dumped too much salt into it then I thought I could save it by mixing it with my macaroni salad the extra they charged me 2.50 for but no they were both so salty it made me sick to my stomach and I couldn't eat either of them then the ribs were so over cooked and burnt and dried out and they only gave me one sauce so it was still so dry you people should be ashamed of yourselves to let me walk out with that food it really was not eatable!!!! Buyer beware!!!!!! read more

I ordered a huge amount of food. Ribs, chicken, tri tip and sides. The food was adequate. Not what I remembered. I won't return because it was a drive for me. The food would have to have been off the charts to take a trip again. The service was horrible. I placed my order the day before so it would be ready. It wasn't and I waited another 30 minutes. I was told it's almost ready five times as people came in placing orders. There is no ambiance. It's a hole in the wall but was given and A rating. I guess the best part remained in a memory. read more

tri tip sandwich is excellent and loved their coleslaw n garlic rolls as well. will be back soon!

OMG soooo good ! I am not sure about all the bad reviews ! We had the lunch special which you can get at dinner I guess. $12.95 half rack of baby backs, one side, and a roll. They were nice sized, juicy .... I got the onion strings on the side they were to die for. My girlfriend got the macaroni salad she said it was really good. Trust me here I am super picky & a retired Executive Chef ! read more

bread is hit or miss everytime, came to pick up a side and started calling around early 8pm to place my order and pick up and they didn't pick up, got to the restaurant before 8:16 and saw them inside and they were already closed even tho the sign says 8:30pm. read more

Reliable, affordable and yummy! Friendly service every visit. Tri-tip with mashed potatoes, and Mac n cheese are the usually go-to. The rolls are fluffy and warm. The first time we pulled up in the night, the outer appearance was a bit worrisome (I may watch too many horror films of late and have an active imagination...) BUT the inside is clean and well maintained. Perfect for a family outing or a quick bite :) read more
