I found this spot on Too Good To Go. The food was pretty good, although the chicken was a little dry. The beans were good. The service was nice when I went to pick up the food. The interior of the establishment was nice too. Overall, it was a decent experience, and I would consider returning. Only has street parking. Careful people drive a little crazy.

Located on Willow is a small barbecue spot that you can miss if driving too fast. I parked on the street and was greeted and helped right away as it was close to closing time and no customers. I had a rib, chicken, potato salad and baked beans. The ribs and chicken were delicious and not overly seasoned. I definitely recommend this place and wish I found it sooner.

I'm no bbq expert in the least, but I know flavor and honestly the food was lacking. It had a great smoke flavor but that's it. I didn't taste the rub or seasoning on any of the meats. I got the brisket, ribs and wings. The brisket was very fatty. It was tender and dry? At the same time? Idk. All fully covered in bbq sauce. I don't like my meats smothered in sauce, I prefer it on the side. I'm a dry rub lover and if I want to dip in sauce, I'll do it at my leisure, had I known I would've requested it on the side only. But that's where the customer service comes in, neither the two ladies who helped were very welcoming or inviting. I've been to several places where you walk in and immediately you're greeted and felt welcomed. Not here. Not one smile, not one "hi, how are you doing." One of the ladies, the younger one gave me a very quiet "thank you, have a nice day." Idk maybe it was bc it was the end of the day and maybe they've had a busy day? But I've seen reviews where the customer service sounds fairly similar to my experience. I wish they would let you know everything comes swimming in sauce unless requested otherwise. Now to the sides.. The Mac n cheese was sad.. I'm sorry but if I'm paying $5 and some change, I hope the container is FULL and flavorful. It was grated cheese and noodles. Not a tsp. of flavor. The collard greens were SALTY. A little hint of spice, but man that salt was like a punch to the face. nothing special to them. No meat in there or anything. Just greens in salt water. Honestly after the customer service experience and pricing, I drove home thinking man. "This better be worth it." And it was not. I'm glad I got 1/2 of this meal on the Too Good app but saw the portion and lack of verity and thought "I have try something else while I'm here." The description on the app made it seem like I was getting a nice verity of meats and sides, or even one of their MANY deserts just sitting out. But no. And I FULLY regret buying anything aside from what I got from the Too Good app. Honestly I wouldn't come back. But you know to each their own, there a plenty of reviews on here that say otherwise. This was just MY experience. OH and a quick NOTE: there is. $1 charge if you pay with card. Lovely

BOGO Sandwich at Lunch 11:30 -2 pm !
Ruth A.

Unassuming little place serving up some great Smoked Meats along with familiar Southern Soul Food dishes. Really enjoyable, fall off the bone Ribs were a top pick. Brisket, full flavored and fork tender also had a nice bark. Chicken Legs & Thighs had a great "lacquered" and crisp skin, while also touting a deep smoke flavor. Hot Links have a good Smokey flavor with a bit of a kick. Favorite Sides were the Sweet Candied Yam's, the Red Beans & Rice. and the Collard Greens with their tasty ( albeit a little salty) "pot liquor." Fresh made Cornbread is a a steal at $1 per slice. Note some specials available: BOGO Sandwiches at lunchtime, and 20% off a 2nd Dinner before 4pm. Very generous servings. Quiet inside with picnic style tables are fine for dining in, and service from Priscilla was great for take out !

Hot Links, Brisket

Twins Smoke House Bbq did not disappoint. I had a great time getting Bbq waisted. Service was remarkable. Thank you Twins Smoke House Bbq for a wonderful dinning experience.

Brisket larger portion was all fatty grisel!

I don't know who cooking and serving here now. There is no way my dog should be eating more than me! Brisket was all fat

Beef brisket combo
Amber G.

This place is dangerous!! Lol! I ordered the beef brisket combo and it definitely can feed two people. They are very generous with their servings! Everything tastes SO GOOD! The yams and Mac chef's kiss.. the brisket reminds me of my uncles good bbq I could only get on holidays... also, the service was great & there are plenty of tables to dine in if wanted. I will definitely be back.

UPDATE: damn. The food is inconsistent…read more.. Got an order on a Monday night and maybe it was off but the chicken wings were funky-- not lightly fried with the taste of sauce as they had done before. the pulled pork was dry as a bone and the paper thin pieces of tri-tip were like paper. Smoked paper. The baked beans were kind of meh I do like the cornbread and coleslaw but after this I'm gonna keep looking. One BIG issue is the prices are also inconsistent, cheaper in the online app, higher in the store cash register system and even higher on the printed menu. They need to fix that because I don't like arguing over prices with the counter help... But I will. MY ORIGINAL REVIEW WAS MUCH BETTER Love this place, it's low-key and local and has killer barbecue, tasty sides and more. Staff is super nice and friendly, I just call in my order and it's ready in minutes. So far I've only gotten the wings and SMOKED CHICKEN YUMMM plus sides like mac & cheese, coleslaw and greens are delicious. And I love their cornbread, it's generous and freezes well so you can have it later in the week for breakfast! If you have any leftovers!

Visited the 10th's Corner location and it wasn't too busy inside. I ordered two 2-meat meals with…read morebrisket and tri-tip plus sides, one 1-meat lunch with brisket and potato salad, and a kids meal brisket slider. Unfortunately, once I got home, I realized the order wasn't correct. I received 3 mac & cheeses and 3 baked beans, but NO potato salad, which I specifically ordered with the 1-meat meal. My biggest disappointment was the kids brisket slider. It does NOT appear or taste like brisket at all--it seems to be a regular hamburger patty. I even specifically asked the young lady at the register if the slider was brisket , and she confirmed that it was. If this is actually a hamburger being sold as a brisket slider, that's very misleading and disappointing. I would like that portion of my order corrected or refunded. That said, there were definitely some positives. The baked beans were loaded with meat and had great flavor. I haven't tried the mac & cheese yet, but the brisket was VERY tender, and the spicy BBQ sauce was delicious! The food I actually received and tried was good, but for an order this large, getting the correct sides and the correct meat--especially after specifically confirming what I was ordering--matters. Hopefully the restaurant can address the issue with the kids meal and improve order accuracy.

I'm from the MidWest and almost screamed with glee to see a Famous Dave's in Long Beach,…read moreCalifornia! I decide that I'll take myself to lunch after my final shift of an event at the amazing Beach Convention Center. Well it was fun taking myself to lunch after 2:30pm because there wasn't a wait to be seated. I was greeted by the bar tender who handed me a menu and a roll up (napkin, fork & knife) and he pointed the way to ample seating at the bar area. I was craving meat and Famous Dave's is known for that. There's indoor menu was easy to ready and they had daily specials. The bartender told me about the .69 cent wings. I ordered the tea (which had sweet & unsweetened options), the 2 meat lunch and also 5 bbq wings. Famous Dave's has plenty of paper towels to wipe your hands even though I wanted to lick the sauce off my hand. The ambiance is rustic and very relaxed. So it felt great to just chill after work. There's indoor, outdoor and bar seating so the options are a plenty. The restaurant is ADA compliant with a ramp for handicapable individuals. I will definitely come back for more DELICIOUS food at Famous Dave's.

DO NOT GO THERE! WASTE OF MONEY FOR MID FOOD AND HORRIBLE SERVICE…read more order was wrong 4 times she didnt understand english or southern hospitality at all. tables were begging for service and refills. out of all the staff that i could see only 2 were actually working, another waitress and busboy, the rest running their mouths nonstop at the bar and main eating area. sports sex glp low customer traffic but how they want money. should have spent my money at costco basically $90 with tip for a 0 star experience and food in this economy! hard earned money just thrown to the wind should have ate at home.

I ordered via uber for pick up. Food I ordered was cooked well and tasted good. However, the entire…read moreprocess was tedious, stressful, and honestly not worth the time to go back for. This is part of a cloud kitchen that is poorly maintained. There is not even one person attending so if there are any issues, you are on your own. I tried calling the phone number but no one answered. I even tried texting the restaurant. Uber support did not help either. The instructions given for pick up from the restaurant via uber were poor so guidance is necessary. There are men loitering around the lobby that do not work there. The confusion regarding their purpose and intentions did make me feel a bit unsafe. It was probably not their intention but going into a tight alley, not knowing what to do, with no one that can help you and then running into a group of men would make anyone a bit concerned. Finally after figuring out how to check in, the order was not even ready even though the estimate already said it was ready. It seems like the order didn't get started until I checked in. So, I had to wait longer for my order, which again is an issue due to the loitering. There is also no parking near the lobby so it is a terrible place and area to be waiting. Not only are those men loitering but there are other drivers loitering in their cars in the alley for orders so it is hard to drive through. Having the cloud kitchen staff at least one person would help and/or a security guard to keep the alley and lobby clear could significantly help all businesses operating out of there. Although this is mainly an issue with the cloud kitchen itself, it is something that this particular restaurant can work on. Had the instructions been clear via the app, I would not have this issue. Additionally, they could have answered the phone or texted back, but did not.

The older man behind the register had an accent and spoke very softly and seemed to get offended when I asked him to repeat himself. The food was incredibly disappointing. The only saving grace was the brisket and baked beans. We got 1/2 pound of both brisket and pork. Pork was too salty for my wife and the BBQ sauce was enough for me to eat it. Oh the BBQ sauce tasted like it was from a bottle. Baked beans were good but it had toooo much juice; wr would only get 3 or 4 beans with each spoonful. The elote was weird. We're hispanic so maybe it was just because it wasn't traditional but there was no sweetness to the corn and the cheese was different. Last of all the fries. We like salt on our fries but there a thing called too much salt. You know how your mouth feels when there is something too salty? Well these fries had that. I took them to the counter and said they were too salty. The older man looked at me and asked "what does that mean?" I said it means there is too much salt in the fries. He put his face really close to the fries as if he was looking for the salt. He then tells me there's only a pinch of salt and tries to hand them back. Believe when I say I wasn't looking for them to be replaced but to tell me there's only a pinch of salt was pretty bad. Not to mention he was really rude about it. It's not they were hand cut fries. They were the fries you buy at the Costco business center. Nothibg special. Over all never coming back. One of the worst experiences I have had

I'm glad I did. Ive been on the lookout for some really good soul food. I'm gonna start off by saying the ambience is fire. Music, happiness, and a sense of togetherness in this place is a 10. The young lady who took my order was super friendly, super nice. She had a great smile and was very helpful since it was my first time there and I really didn't know what I wanted to order. I ended up ordering the oxtail plate and cajun chicken plate in addition, extra greens and banana pudding. The plates were so overflowing you couldn't even close the lid. My mouth was watering on my drive home, I wanted to open up and start eating. I think I drove a little bit faster that day. It was my sister's birthday and I really wanted to surprise her with some good home-cooked soul food and let me tell you it did not disappoint. If I can give them a score for good ass food it t will be far higher than a 10. This place is off the chart. This food is amazing. The banana pudding , I wish I ordered more. Those oxtails, omg, I've never had them prepared like that and I can't give enough credit to the chef. I can tell you right now, I could not finish that plate, it was so much food. Everything was more than delicious. I'm glad that I was able to check the cultured soul kitchen off my list of places I wanted to visit.
