    Being a 70 year old BBQ connasuer from the South, who stops at any BBQ restaurant I see, anywhere in the world, I was fortunate to find this place & Joe, yesterday. 10 out of 10!!!

    Don't sleep on Uncle Andre's! Everything is GREAT and can't beat the prices. Portions are nice size. They have lunch specials daily Monday to Friday from 12-2.

    Half rack of baby backs, Mac and cheese, and candied yams
    Ashley B.

    Finally tried this place after having it on my list for probably about a year. Ordered two half rack baby back plates. Both with Mac and cheese, one with corn, one with yams (because they were all out of beans, sadly). It took close to 20 minutes from when I ordered to when I was out the door with our food and then about another 20 minutes until I was home and our food was still really hot. Mac and cheese was tasty and had a homemade feel. Yams were good but could have been a little sweeter, but that's just a personal preference. I was actually taken aback when I opened the box and saw how much meat was on those rib bones! The bark was on point! The meat was perfectly tender (not quite falling off the bone but close) and cooked well. I personally prefer a little more of a sweet saucy bbq rib, though. These are definitely not sweet at all and are only ever so slightly sticky. Again, personal preference and could be remedied by just having a little of my own bbq sauce on hand. Overall, it was tasty and the guy who took my order was super friendly. And for the price, you can't beat it! (21 dollars for a half slab and two sides). They take cash and zelle. Which I knew the zelle part before I ordered because I wanted to try the peach cobbler but didn't have enough cash on me to add that on. Will definitely be back to try some other items like the brisket and the fried catfish!

    (Took Out 02/13/24 TU @ 4:00pm): Uncle Dre's BBQ for Fat Tuesday! For my carnivore fix before the start of Lent season that resulted in my annual cleanse of no alcohol and meat, I sought out Uncle Andre's BBQ as a new BBQ place for me to try. The pictures and reviews on Yelp sold me, and coincidently I was working in the area which made it very convenient. I always harped on the fact that there were no BBQ joints in my Silver Lake hipsterhood (I guess it wasn't healthy enough), but the San Fernando Valley had ample choices. Would Uncle Andre send me into BBQ bliss!? PURCHASE 6pc Half Baby Back Ribs Dinner w/Mac & Cheese & Macaroni Salad Sides ($20.95): Each rib was meaty, sizable, and very tender as everything fell off the bone. The sauce was slightly sweet and tangy and just enough to cover the meat. Under normal conditions, I would've ordered a full rack and had some leftovers the next night, but I couldn't do that this time around. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=1ja-2fKFckizb62h4gL-5Q&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Side Mac & Cheese (Included): Creamy, gooey, hearty, and peppery this was a lovely meal in itself with plenty of extra cheese. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=SBjW5iisuhgPMHv0Ooft4g&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Side Macaroni Salad (Included): Wonderfully firm pasta with barely any mayonnaise (a plus!) but it seriously needed some pineapple (that's how I liked it). https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HKyS_A5EKXvQ3YXRCrK70g&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw 2pc Chicken BBQ Dinner w/Baked Beans & Cole Slaw Sides ($14.95): A gigantic breast and thigh were the parts I received, and I couldn't be happier! The meat was so moist and tender while the sauce was the same as the ribs. I stuffed myself with all of this goodness. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HL0zPtcUP_l3F7kxmeQrXQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Side Cole Slaw (Included): I usually wasn't a cole slaw fan, this was actually nice, crunchy, a tad peppery, some spice, and not very soupy - well done! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=9HMOggUkSnmncimtCaMYBQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Side BBQ Baked Beans (Included): Soft beans simmered in the lovely aforementioned barbecue sauce, I was tooting my own horn a couple of hours later. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=CPI6t7VI5YsnL7fZI-IztQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Peach Cobbler ($5.00): An enjoyable dessert with chunks of crust and peach, plenty of cinnamon, served warm, and all of the gooey juices was simply soothing. I wished I had an entire pie or leftovers. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=uB-B0JkdIOeXccsQcQLUUA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Credit Card Fee ($1.00): It was all good! SERVICE I was greeted by two gentlemen behind the tiny order counter. I quickly knew what I wanted and placed my order. I took a seat and relaxed while I watched the constant flow of customers who picked up their orders. About 15 minutes later, my order was packed and ready to go. Everything was easy and straightforward - greatly appreciated! PARKING (FREE) They shared a small parking lot with a handful of other businesses in a tiny strip mall. Otherwise, there was limited parking along the main drags of Moorpark St. (where I parked), Colfax Ave., and all surrounding side streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A quaint eatery that was mainly a takeout restaurant with a couple of booths and chairs/tables https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=1pSwMsDTkPAZ5iWHN53iKg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw to enjoy your meal onsite. Many framed celebrity photos hung on peach-colored walls. Easily legible menus https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=rCCBmMjUjmRnUu8TMJZCqw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw hung above the order counter. A decent amount of natural light came through the large glass wall windows and doors while soul-sucking fluorescent electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There was one TV while disco, hip-hop, and soul music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=mHuL2svdIenqHwmNjVxR1A&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Uncle Andre's BBQ happily led me into Lent, and I couldn't wait to return to try more of their Southern food and varied menu. I loved the portion sizes and service, while I felt the prices were maybe a tad high (but dammit, the food was good!). And of course, I was happy to support another small mom & pop local business! I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $46.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    Uncle Andre..... where you been all my life?? This place is small with 4 tables for dining. I ordered combo platter with greens and mac and cheese and the piece of chicken fried. I must say this is the best bbq I have had since moving to Los Angeles. Finally a place that uses seasoning. The fried chicken, seasoned well while being crispy and juicy. Brisket was thinly sliced and tasty. Hot link.... I'm mad I didn't order two of them I'm wanting more. Babybackribs are good, but I enjoyed the other meats better. those greens though....so flavorful. Mac and cheese was also good. We have a peach cobbler that we have not tried yet but I am sure I won't be disappointed. Parking was my biggest complaint about this restaurant. I would bring someone with you so they can run in and grab your order.

    Nice, friendly, family oriented restaurant and the food speaks for itself!! This is one of my favorite BBQ places to go!! Highly recommended to all!! Service is great! There's several options when it comes to BBQ, and the sides are amazing!!

    Lots of pepper on meat and Mac and cheese
    Mara J.

    Food was awful it had a lot of black pepper in both Mac and cheese and potato salad !!!the potato salad was soggy with a whole egg yolk in it not chopped up !!! Look at pictures !!!

    Half Slab Baby Back Ribs Dinner
    Mai N.

    The sides in my opinion were okayyy.. However, 4 stars to Uncle Andre's because they have a niche that cannot be found elsewhere. Their bbq is the type of bbq you only find at cookouts. The bbq immediately transported me to a summer day at the park with friends and family.

    The ribs are so tender. The peach cobbler is also good. The only drawback is you have to pay with cash. I would definitely recommend .

Between a ciabatta loaf, it is different and non-traditional. It tastes fatty and hearty as Pastrami should be. It is evenly seasoned and paired with a modern twist; they call their pepper relish. Portioned as a single serving, it is not your deli-sized sandwich like it should be. Other sandwiches and savory items are equally creative and of good quality. There is no doubt that there is great-tasting food here, and you can notice the attention to detail. Unfortunately, you will spend a premium here. Feeling the pinch is as lacking as the need for a nice, fluffy Rye with a crispy crust.

The owner is incredibly sweet, and her son is the chef. You can really feel the care and pride they put into the food, and it shows in every bite. I love the variety they offer as a deli, and everything I have tried so far has been delicious. On top of that, the value is unbeatable.
