HAPPY TO SEE THEY ARE NOT PERMANENTLY CLOSED. I WAS JUST NEXT DOOR ON 1/30/26 during lb black restaurant week. They're next to the Wicked Wolf Bar on Pacific. If anything, looks like they're expanding to the building next to them (northbound). Not closed. Call or stop by. Go getcha Q and Koolaid! read more

This place is awesome! The chef/owner was so kind when I came to pick up my order. The restaurant itself 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. read more

Wrigley BBQ & Grill - pulled pork hot dog, potato salad, coleslaw, cornbread - Southern Near Me - Long Beach, California

We wanted to have some barbecue so we came to Wrigley to get some! Service was really good and she explained to us how the menu worked and the different sizes. We ordered three types of meats and three sides: ribs, chicken and brisket plus Mac and cheese, greens and beans. The food was really good! The only thing that we didn't like at all was the corn bread: it tasted from a box and it was super dry too! I was hoping that would be my dessert since the banana pudding was sold out. We will return to try other items on the menu for sure. Give it a try if you are craving some good bbq!! read more

I found this location through my app Too Good Too Go. Decided to give them a try. The portions are quite small so if you really like BBQ, purchase 2-3 surprise bags. The BBQ is very tender. So tender that you may have to watch not to eat the bones. The potato salad is awesome as well. My husband said the greens are good as well. My only complaint would be the ribs are a bit salty. I thought it was the sauce. The sauce alone is perfect but the seasoning of the meat is salty. The service was very attentive and outgoing. The dining area was wide enough to enjoy a meal with a little privacy at the table. Parking may be a hassle if it's busy but with the location being near the neighborhood, you can always park on a neighboring street. read more

The food here is amazing! My GF and I were in Long Beach for the weekend and were craving BBQ. We decided to stop here based on Yelp reviews and we are so glad that we did! Our favorite was the bbq ribs but everything was absolutely top notch. The Mac and cheese had the perfect seasoning and nice layers of chewy cheese inside. The cornbread was sweet and crumbly. Their bbq sauce had a super interesting flavor that added depth to every dish. Overall, this spot is some of the best bbq I have had in SoCal. read more

Walked over to Wrigley BBQ & Grill to check it out. Today's daily special was a sandwich and side for $15 so I thought I'd give that try! I chose the BBQ Brisket and Mac & Cheese. They sure load the sandwich with meat and it was pretty tender and tasty! The Mac and Cheese was had some nice crust and was delicious. The inside has a few tables and chairs to sit in but I chose to get my order to go. Very casual interior and chill vibe. I'd love to try their bread pudding but they were out unfortunately. They also had a photo of their fried chicken and it looks bomb but you can't order it a la carte you have to get it as a plate with sides. Pretty good first impression on food quality and when I'm craving more BBQ I'll walk back! Small business owned as well so happy to support! read more

That was delicious! We ordered dinner here, trying to give a leg up to small Black business. Bravo! This was a DELICIOUS choice! Ribs, rib tips, brisket, man and cheese, BBQ beans, peach cobbler. Ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender. Sauce was sweet-spicy. Mac and cheese was good peppery. Beans were eh. Worth ordering here again. read more

Top bbq place in Long Beach for me. All the food I have tried here is great, meat is tender and perfectly cooked and seasoned. BBQ beans delicious, and all other sides I have had. Inside of the restaurant is straight to the point, some tables and chairs and all decor for LA teams: Rams, Dodgers, and Lakers; that is how you know it's going to be good BBQ. I wish their hours were expanded, but it is definitely worth finding the time to come try it. read more

Wrigley BBQ & Grill - Side of yams but I ordered cabbage. - Southern Near Me - Long Beach, California

Customer service was good the young lady was very nice and very helpful, however the ribs and rib tips were under cooked which made them a little too hard to get off the bone. The rib size was good but the rib tips were normal size tips cut in half. The barbecue sauce was cool. But over all just ok and a little over priced for me. The greens were so so but I did enjoy the Mac and Cheese. read more

Wrigley BBQ & Grill - This is my meal Ribs, Rib Tip Tips, greens and Mac and cheese. The pull pork sandwich that I mentioned was from a previous visit - Southern Near Me - Long Beach, California

It's on a corner in the Wrigley. I smelled the BBQ as I drove by and doubled back. I had the Thursday rib tip special, that came with 5 or so tips and one side For $8. It was delicious and hit the spot. The rib tips were tasty and the Sauce was great. The dirty rice was good also, with little bits of bell pepper in it. The food tasted fresh also. The inside is plain and basic, but appeared clean. There was a lot of seating. Tables and chairs with nothing on top of the tables. I ate there and you have to go back outside to dispose of your trash. read more

I've always had a good time and had good food here, but I just ordered food from their website and then came to pick it up and it's not open. I heard from a nearby business that they are remodeling. That means they're website should not be accepting orders. Also no one answers their phone number from the website. I hope I can get a refund or else I'm not coming back anymore read more

Pork ribs were superbly slow cooked, tender, moist meat falling off the bone. BBQ beans were among the best ever I've had, with a nuanced seasing flavor that tasted like ham. Brisket was slightly dry but not too much or something BBQ sauce can help along. Jalapena cornbread with just the right level of bite -very unique version of cornbread. Mac and cheese classically good, slightly browned for a bit of crispy edging to contrast with the soft center parts. Were were warmly greeted by Mama herself who came out the kitchen for a quick chat. She has a very interesting background story about how she met her opportunity to follow her passion and gifting of presenting some of the most amazing BBQ in the area. Her place along with Robert Earl's are swiftly moving the LBC to legend status among California local owned and operated BBQ destinations! A few nice tables to sit and eat there in a friendly, festive and BBQ scented dining room. Next time will try one of the yummy looking homemade desserts of bread pudding, lemon cake, or strawberry cake. A wonderful celebration of southern style BBQ in the heart of the LBC. Check it out. You WILL NOT be disappointed. And tell your BNBQ aficionado friends too. read more

So I randomly found this bbq place on yelp after calling the place I usually go to & freakin out because they were sold for the day. Grrr!! So anyway, very impressed by Wrigley's! The bbq sauce. Bomb! I got the rip tips which could have been a lil more tender but they were good nonetheless. The fried cabbage. Bomb!! The bbq baked beans were good too. I hope this is not a hit or miss place because I most definitely will be back to try their mac n cheese, yams & greens! It's easy to find..sits on a corner and there's street parking. I didn't even notice if you could sit down to eat but its pretty small. The young lady that answered the phone and was at the cashier was very nice but would benefit from some additional training, specifically in customer service & phone etiquette. read more

#BlackHistoryMonth #BHM #SupportBlackBusinesses Found this place on Yelp! Pretty Good reviews and we had a craving for fish. THE EXPERIENCE: When I came in there was a young guy who took my order they had some kind of rap music playing in the back. I PLACED MY ORDER: --Red Snapper dinner (with recommended Dirty Rice, Mac and cheese and Collard Greens) --Catfish dinner (with Candied Yams & Collard Greens) A older guy walked up to the counter because the guy who took my order didn't know about the check-in offer (maybe he was new -idk). The older guy got a small cup and asked me what juice would I like to sample for my "check-in" I settled on: Strawberry. It was a good sample portion to try. I asked the guy when I should come back for the order wasn't really given a definitive answer but that's okay. I went outside and waited a bit, came back to wait a little more. I would say in total my wait was about 30 mins (which is fine with me for a fresh meal). When my order was called I checked it before leaving and I'm so glad I did. I noticed the small scoop of Mac and cheese - I let that go but then I noticed the cornbread that comes with the meal were not there but instead some slices of bread in a ziplock!? I was a bit confused by that and inquired about it from the older guy (who gave me my sample drink). I appreciated him taking responsibility, apologizing, taking back the slices of bread in ziplock and in its place giving me the cornbread(s) that originally came with the meals. THE TASTE: - Fish 5/5 - Red beans and Rice 4/5 - Candied Yams 5/5 - Cornbread 5/5 -Mac & Cheese 4/5 good but it was very little like a sample portion (see photo attached) - Collard green 4/5 (there was a bone in one dinner and that could've been REAL bad (see photo attached) OVERALL: The food was good and the staff were nice enough --not sure I'd return though. read more

Me and my girlfriend just pulled up to this hidden gem right after classes. Small business but clean and simple layout, as soon as we walked in we were hit with the smell of fresh food! The lady and gentleman behind the counter were very nice and welcoming! Customer service on point! On top of that the wait for the food was not long at all, the food itself was spectacular, me and my girlfriend have been to plenty spots all around LA and this hidden gem in the Harbor Area has topped them all. Highly recommend!!! read more

They must have changed owners. The food wasn't that great prior, but this time horrible. The sides are in sauce containers. Don't bother

I was craving bbq and had passed by this multiple times, so decided to try it. I was greeted by a friendly cashier. I read the menu and decided on trying the 3 meats for $30.00. They were out of my favorite brisket, so I asked if I could get double ribs. The answer was NO. So I chose ribs, chicken and pulled pork. I was handed a bag to that looked pretty small to have 3 meats and two sides, but nevertheless got home and open the box. Wow what a surprise 3 half ribs definitely not spare ribs, the chicken bland with no seasoning and a scoop of pulled pork. The sides were a joke, 4 oz of Mac n cheese 4 oz of collard greens. I was really disappointed at the price and the amount of food given. I guess it wouldn't have been bad if it was good. Sorry I'm giving you two stars and not one of it wasn't for the friendly cashier. read more

The wrigley area finally has a good BBQ spot in the area but the best part is this place has beef ribs which is hard to get at other spots. I came to pick up a couple of plates! One BBQ beef sausage $18.00 and one BBQ beef plate (2 beef ribs/$27.00) with mac and cheese/BBQ beans! Both plates amazing and meats tasted as they should, moist and flavorful! The mac and cheese/BBQ beans were delicious. The peach cobbler was solid. Get extra cornbread as it is soo good you'll definitely want more than one. No need to go far far away for good BBQ now. I was going as far as the OC and north LB areas but this one is legit. Friendly staff and clean inside with a couple of tables outside! Don't sleep on this BBQ. This is on pacific about a block away from burnett street. Yes i will be back again and again as long as they keep turning out good BBQ product.

Good BBQ joint in the Wrigley neighborhood. Friendly people and good food. I got the Beef ribs with fried cabbage, which is a great low carb appetizer. The ribs were flavorful and cooked well, but they weren't prepped well; the membrane on the back was not removed which made it hard to pull the meat off. My son got fried chicken and he said it was awesome, along with potato salad and a hot link. His girlfriend had the pulled pork sandwich and loved it. Overall we are stoked to have another good BBQ option here in Long Beach; We will be back! read more

I saw them on Instagram and thought I would check them out. Parking is not the best there,it's street parking. They were friendly and it was clean. I ordered a whole bbq chicken and it came with 2 sides. The sides were 5 oz each not much in comparison to a whole chicken. Now I thought I was getting a whole chicken when I got to the car I noticed the box of chicken felt light, opened and found 8 pieces of legs and wings what let down. The chicken was good and the sides were very good collard greens and mac and cheese. It was like a small appetizer not a meal . read more

I got the lunch special brisket sandwich with greens & yams . It was enough to fill me up it came with a can soda for $17 I went for the splurge and it is worth it. My co-worker got the pulled pork sandwich with greens & Mac & cheese she loved it too. All the sides we tried were good. But order ahead they take about 20 minutes but worth the wait. read more

Ummm...in the words of Randy Jackson, "that's a no for me dawg!" I thought my family and I would finally try the BBQ since it's in the neighborhood, yeah we should have kept wondering. My son who is on a carnivore diet couldn't even finish half of what I ordered . My hubby who was looking forward to those chicken links, had one bite and passed. I'm not gonna even indulge on the sides. We'll stick to the other two BBQ spot we frequent. Best of luck. read more

I cannot recommend the catfish highly enough; simply phenomenal. The best I've had in LA (I've eaten a lot of catfish, too - grew up in the midwest going fishing every week during the summer). Cooked perfectly, cornmeal in the breading, somehow not greasy at all. It was so good we tried to buy more, but they were out (it's only available Friday, Sat and Sun I believe). The fried chicken was also great, as were the collard greens. The stir-fried cabbage was good. The spare ribs were a little overly sauced (though I believe some would appreciate that), so I would recommend getting the sauce on the side or without (they do give that option). The dirty rice was surprisingly tasty. Really friendly folks who work there, as well - we felt welcomed. We will definitely be back; great place to eat. read more

The ribs, bean's and greens were delicious. Some of the best favor notes I've had in a long time.

THIS FOOD WAS SO BOMB. My sister & I went in! Aha we got Rib Tip Dinner, The 3 Meat Dinner, Chicken Link, & Hot Link (they accidentally have us 2 hot instead of one Chicken, but it was BOMB, so I'm not complaining). We also got a load of sides, Mac & Cheese (fire) Greens (Fire, great flavor!) Baked Beans we're good, just a bit watery. Yams (fire) BBQ was well flavored and not a overload of BBQ Sauce, I appreciate that). I got the pound cake 2, not my favorite but my parents like it.. so it's a win win I guess. Definitely recommend, definitely will be back. read more

I had the beef rib dinner and a 2 meat dinner with brisket and chicken sausage. The beef ribs were tough with very little meat. The brisket was cut into small squares just bigger than postage stamps. It was also tough. Never had brisket served this way. I didn't like it at all, as it didn't resemble any brisket I've ever had. The chicken sausage tasted good. The sides were ok, nothing special. I love BBQ and had high expectations for this place. Both meals were way overpriced. The ribs were $29. For almost $30, I expected way more. Considering how expensive BBQ is, the rib plate wasn't worth more than $19. I wish I had taken pictures for you. The 2 meat dinner was $23. Considering how the brisket was cut and being tough, it wasn't worth more than $12. This was my 2nd and last visit. read more

Both me and my wife are huge fans of bbq, especially brisket, so whenever I hear about a new bbq place opening in Long Beach, it goes up near the top of our list to try. I'm glad to say it didn't take us long to stop here (a couple weeks ago), and I can strongly recommend them, with one important caveat that I'll get to. First off, we got there at like 6:40, so 20 minutes before they closed. They weren't *busy* busy, but they were still definitely open, friendly in answering all my newbie questions about their menu (most notably: yes, the "2 meat combo" is a little bit more total meat than the single meat items), and, which I was actually a little surprised by, seems to be a rarity among small hole in the wall bbq places everywhere: they still had everything on the menu available. As far as seating, there's a couple little temporary tables set up outside, it's probably more of a to-go place. We sat outside on the sidewalk and ate most of it there, cause we wanted to eat it when it was freshest, but it's in to-go containers already anyway, so we'd probably just take it home when it was ready next time. We each got a 2-meat combo - I got brisket and pulled pork, probably my two favorite types of bbq, with mac & cheese and fried cabbage for sides. My wife went with brisket and rib types, her own mac & cheese, so we weren't fighting over mac & cheese, and said I could have most of her collard greens, since she usually doesn't care much for them. We also shared one $3 fresh-made strawberry lemonade. Total verdict: lemonade is bomb (and large enough to share!), mac & cheese is bomb (glad we got our own), fried cabbage is bomb, my wife ended up eating half the collard greens (she took back what she said when she tried them!), some of the best pulled pork I've had in my life, a surprising amount of food (I don't usually have leftovers from bbq! Had a little this time), and the one big caveat: rather rubbery, mediocre brisket, at least the one time we were there. Might just have been an off-night, or because it was the end of the day, but I was definitely surprised at the brisket being average at best, compared to everything else being outstanding. I'd give them another shot sometime, but I'm glad I went with the two-meat combo instead of just brisket - again, I can't stress enough how good their pulled pork was. (As for the ribs, I'm not a fan of them, but my wife said they were good. She agreed with me about the brisket, though.) read more

Wrigley BBQ & Grill - Beef Ribs Brisket Dirty Rice Mac and Cheese my dumb looking boyfriend (I promise he cute but the foods so good it got him fucked up) - Southern Near Me - Long Beach, California

I came here last week to pick up lunch bc I work from home. I ordered and got my food within 10 minutes which is really good. I ordered the beef link plate that came with two sides so I got Mac & cheese and corn bread. The beef links were amazing! They're drenched in this bbq sauce that makes it flavorful. Anyone who visits soul food places know that sometimes the corn bread can be a hit or miss, but Wrigley's is really good. It's moist and not dry. The mac and cheese was alright, but everything else made up for it. I'll definitely be back. read more
