    Randomly stumbled upon Big B's after another place sold out of most of their meats, and it was so good. Got the combo which came with a chicken thigh which was cooked well and 1/3 of baby back ribs. The barbecue sauce has a good subtle spicy tangy flavor. Service was great and will definitely come back again soon.

    Yummy!

    9/2/25 Anything you get here is super delicious! Staff very friendly, lady who helped was fluent in Spanish!

    Full Slab lunch

    Order the ribs for dinner! Family owned. Fast and friendly. Eat in the kitchen or the bar.

    Stopped by for lunch and for the same price as most fast food I got a real meal. Can't beat that.

    Stumbled upon this BBQ joint while looking for a new bakery in the same shopping center. My hubby loves BBQ, so we came back today to try it out. The place itself is small with 2 four top tables and a counter with stools along the side; there are a couple of picnic tables right outside if you prefer to eat al fresco. Hole in the wall comes to mind. BUT, the food was on point. My husband ordered a full rack of ribs and an order of onion rings that we shared. He was completely focused on his food and enjoyed every last bite! I ordered the pulled pork sliders ~ 3 sliders served on soft & fluffy (Hawaiian?) rolls with a generous amount of meat in each one. The pork was tender and flavorful and came with a cup of BBQ sauce for dipping. I chose the baked beans for my side. The onion rings were a good size portion and were my favorite part of the meal. One of the things I look forward to at BBQ places are Mac & cheese and cornbread; unfortunately, neither are offered here

    I tried Big B's Barbecue for the first time on Fri, 5/19/2023 for lunch with my coworkers. Customer Service: It took a while for the waitress to get to us after we were seated. It also took the food a while to get to us. The waitress had some recommendations for food, but she wasn't too attentive or checked in with us too much throughout our meal. One good thing is that the sauces were self-serve on the side so you can grab them yourself. Food: ++BBQ Pork Sandwich - Thinly Sliced tenderloin pork served on a French roll w/ pickles and onion + includes a side (mac salad) $13.45 - I was disappointed in my sandwich. The sliced tenderloin was tasty, not dry but the bread itself was a little dry. The size was not that big. - The Mac Salad was also very mediocre and a bit bland. Nothing about it stood out and I was quite disappointed since I should have gotten something else like cole slaw or fries that would have better complemented the sandwich. -I also thought this meal was a little pricey for what you get. Like although you get a side with your sandwich, both portions are not that big, to begin with. I also would not consider myself able to stomach huge portions, but yeah I wasn't that full after finishing my meal. Environment: Basically a bro's bar. Lots of CSU Fullerton decor, various Hollywood and sports trinkets. Although every inch of the walls was covered, everything worked and added to the restaurant's character. You could see where the owner's passions/interests lie and it's pretty cool to see it in person. There are also games available along with multiple tv screens so I'm sure this place is packed when there are games playing! All in all, I'm not very excited about Big B's. I can see the hype, but it's not for me. I'm interested in trying their other bbq items (just 'cause I've heard good things) but sadly, I would not choose to come back to the location itself.

    Close up of ribs.

    They have good hours. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Slightly different times on the weekends. You can get it served next door at Brian's while you enjoy a drink. They get to you pretty quick and you are served within 10-12 minutes of ordering. I had the ribs lunch (under $20) and it came with a side. The Baby back ribs were tasty and tender. The potato salad was good also. The bbq sauce was right on as well. I had to request that my table be wiped clean, as this was my only negative. I will return and try the chicken next time.

    Mediocre at best and very expensive for what you get. Ribs used to be very tender but tonight they were kind of chewy.

    Delicious and mouth watering BBQ. Fish taco Fridays are great with a pint of IPA or whatever quenches your thirst.

    Do they sell chicken ala carte?

    I don't think so, but they do catering, so it might be on their menu?

    How is the coleslaw?

    Didn't sample but potato salad is excellent.

    I used to frequent the Glendora and Upland locations back in college. These days the closest store…read morelocation to me is in Brea, so I've been a handful of times. After a long, traffic-ridden drive from Vegas back to SoCal - all I wanted was wet fries topped with pastrami and a classic pastrami dip. Eloisa's customer service was phenomenal. You can tell she, and everyone who works there knows the menu very well so they know what orders are gonna HIT and what's worth the best bang for your buck. I also respect her hustle, in between orders I saw checking the patties on the grill. She was also amazing with managing the wave of customers that came in for the dinner rush. I feel fortunate I was able to place and receive my order before then. The Food: - As per usual, the sandwich was generously STUFFED with their world famous pastrami. Pickles and mustard included paired well with the fat and peppery taste of the meat - My wet fries w/pastrami? Delicious. No negative notes! - Pricing remains fair, my order didn't even hit $30 I know this place is known for their pastrami chili cheese fries, but the gravy used for the wet fries is something special. 10/10 would recommend buying if you wanna switch things up :)

This location is in Brea right at the intersection of the 90 and 57 freeways. They are best known for their pastrami and their massive portions. I got the pastrami dip ($12.60) which is their most popular dish. Pastrami is piled on a French roll with mustard and pickles and dipped in au jus. I also got the wet fries with gravy ($6.75) which was just fries topped with their gravy. I didn't realize just how big the portions were but it was a huge pile of fries. The interior reminded me of an old school diner. When I arrived there was a long line for the drive through, but ordering inside I got my food within minutes of ordering. The portions were great for the price and the pastrami was tender. I'd be interested in their other offerings.

I've tried their signature The Melrose, which consists of black forest ham, oven roasted turkey, bacon, melted White American cheese, topped with house slaw (lettuce, red onions, pepperoncini tossed in their "Melrose" spread) and tomato. I absolutely love this sandwich!! It's packed with so much flavor, and the bun absorbs all of the juicy goodness, making every bite incredibly satisfying. Runner-up for me is the Uncle Nikki. This one has Genoa salami, pepperoni, capicola, provolone cheese, also topped with their house slaw. I've only ordered from here through Postmates, and every time their packaging is excellent--they wrap each sandwich in this cute wrapper, which adds a fun touch and keeps everything neatly intact and fresh by the time it arrives. Each sandwich is around $12 (as of June 2026), and I honestly think it's worth the price because these sandwiches are huge and so good!!
