    Beef breakfast burrito
    Antonio R.

    This review is long overdue. Undoubtedly, the BEST breakfast burrito i've ever had (and i've had a lot). Blew my mind the first time i had it, and now I keep going back. I've tried the breakfast burrito with beef and the one with pork belly. The pork belly is the way to go. So flavorful and very filling. I like that they add bell peppers to the egg! And to make it even better, I add their Ghost Sauce to every bite. I'm obsessed. The only "con" that some people might have is going to be the price. It's about 18$ . Regardless, I still think it's the best breakfast burrito i've ever had. *DISCLAIMER* Their location inside of the Public Market doesn't have the breakfast burritos. Service is always great and the place is always clean.

    This restaurant is such a gem! The building used to be an old movie theater, which already makes it super cool, and they've kept such a nice aesthetic--stylish, welcoming, and unique. Walking in, we were greeted by the friendly staff who even brought sauces straight to our table. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the pork chops, mac and cheese, potato salad, cornbread, and some brisket. The mac and cheese was very cheesy and delicious, and the potato salad was seasoned just right--packed with flavor but not overdone. The pork chops were savory without being too fatty, and for once, I didn't get heartburn like I usually do when eating pork (huge plus!). The brisket was tender, tasty, and full of flavor. Everything was perfectly done. Such a great experience all around--fantastic food, friendly staff, and a one-of-a-kind atmosphere. Definitely worth coming back!

    Great spot for meat lover as they offer a variety of dishes, such as classic BBQ, burgers, burritos. They make the sauce in house and it enhances the flavor so much!!

    Holy Trinity
    Melissa S.

    I've heard great things about this place and countless positive reviews. Therefore, it's been on my list for awhile. I went at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon. Business was busy but not to the point of overwhelming. It is a walk up and order experience. There are separate breakfast and lunch/dinner menus. But both menus were available to order from. I ordered the Holy Trinity platter from the lunch/dinner menu. It comes with 4 ribs, 2 full sausages, 4 slices of brisket, 4 slices of bread, and two sides. I also ordered the banana pudding. Customer service is top notch. There were 3 people working the front that I encountered and they were all amazing. Things I enjoyed: The ribs are delicious. Their bbq sauces are very good. Especially the spicy sauce. I noticed a ghost sauce, but the sauce I was given was identified as the spicy sauce. I'm not sure if they're the same. The sausages were good as well. I've had a lot of variations of banana pudding at different bbq restaurants. This was good but not great. Now, not for the so great: The brisket was dry and lacked flavor. The smoke ring is beautiful on it. I just found it to be ok. The baked beans and Mac and cheese were basic. I plan to come back for breakfast as well as bring my family for dinner as there are many options and I would like to try them all.

    I was excited to try this spot in the Redlands public market since I was in the area with some friends. Opted for the two meat combo with a side. The service was good and the food came out really quickly. Unfortunately a food left a lot to be desired. The best part was the ribs which was seasoned well and very flavorful. The brisket was pretty mediocre and dry though, and the mashed potatoes were okay. The price was not bad for BBQ as it was about $22 but I wish the food was more fresh. You could kind of tell that it was made earlier in the day and just cut up to serve and by the time it got to us it was not hot or fresh. Overall an okay experience, I probably wouldn't try this location again and would opt for the restaurant.

    Rib trio
    Edbert S.

    I've always heard about Cornerstone Bbq ever since I've moved to the IE so we were excited to try this place out. This is located in the packing district in Redlands - great area. We decided to order the rib trio and added one side - baked beans. Overall, it was okay. The ribs weren't that tender but the flavor of them were okay. The sweet one was my favorite though, almost like a maple glaze. However, they were kind of dry and they tasted as if they were left out for a bit. It was basically room temp. I do like the sauces they had so definitely dip your bbq in them! The service was good. The people behind the counter were nice. The vibes in the dining area was pretty cool as well. I really wish Riverside had something like this haha

    I've eaten here for dinner once and just tried the breakfast today. It's really solid bbq in a casual environment. The sauces are delicious! The portions for dinner are big so I shared with my husband and there was more than enough for both of us splitting a platter. They open at 7am for breakfast as well and I prefer the breakfast over the dinner. The breakfast burrito with the smoked sausage and salsa on it is truly perfection. The burritos do need a sauce or they will be dry. We also tried the fried chicken and waffle, and we will never order that again because the chicken was quite dry and the waffle tasted off and syrup was thick and hard to pour. The other breakfast options sounded good and I will try more! Inside seating can accommodate large or small groups with two hour parking available outside. The staff are friendly!

    Brisket, Brisket Baked Beans, Coleslaw
    Michael G.

    First thing walking in I was greeted by the friendly staff. I ordered the 1 meat and 2 sides plate and go brisket with brisket baked beans and coleslaw. The food came out pretty quickly. The presentation of the food was very appealing. The brisket was nice and tender and the BBQ sauce was really good. There were 2 different BBQ sauces and they were both good. The coleslaw was good and had a little kick. The brisket baked beans were a highlight. I would definitely get those. My only complaint is that the portion of brisket was a little small. I would order 2 portions of meat. Overall it's great BBQ and a cool vibe, with a huge TV playing sports.

    This review is for the location inside Redlands Public Market. @cornerstonebbq_redlands brought the meats. I had the Holy Trinity with pork ribs, brisket, and 2 jalepeno cheddar sausages. Sides were a corn salad and mashed potatoes. All the meats were great. Cheddar dogs had a nice snap when you bit into them. Brisket had a glorious rub on it and a definite smokey flavor. Pork ribs were surprised meaty. I especially enjoyed the variety of sauces they offer, but let it be known that the meat stood on its own. Cornerstone was definitely on their game today.

    Catherine G.

    Really wanted to love the bbq here. It smelled SO GOOD. But everything was very underwhelming with the exception of the jalapeno cheddar sausage. We ordered the three meat plate plus two sides to share. As you can see in the photos, the brisket was so dry, I was so sad. The pork ribs were also pretty bland and dry. Mac and cheese was decent but super oily. The mashed potatoes, did not taste like mashed potatoes. Not sure what was going on there. I will say I did like the bbq sauces they had though.

    I stopped by around midday on a Sunday. It was a little busy when we got there, but the line moved…read morepretty quickly, so we weren't waiting long. There was also plenty of parking and several seating options inside. We decided to order a little bit of everything so we could try as much of the menu as possible. We had the brisket, brisket burnt ends, rib tips, several sides, and both desserts. The brisket burnt ends were definitely my favorite. They were smoky, tender, and full of flavor. The brisket had a beautiful bark and was cooked perfectly, and the rib tips were just as good. I was honestly just as impressed with the sides. My favorites were the spicy mac and cheese and the potato salad. The potato salad was creamy and was the perfect thing to cool your mouth after eating the steamed jalapeños. The coleslaw and green beans were also really refreshing and balanced out all the rich barbecue. The biggest surprise for me was the sweet yams. It was so flavorful that it tasted like it had been slow-cooked in brown sugar and spices for hours. For dessert, I tried both the banana pudding and the peach cobbler. The banana pudding was the winner for me, but I also liked that the peach cobbler wasn't overly sweet. Even the cornbread was delicious. I ended up pairing it with the barbecue baked beans and was a great combo. Our total came to about $110 before tax and tip, but we ordered enough food to try a wide variety of meats, sides, and desserts, so I thought it was well worth it. Overall, there wasn't a single thing we ordered that I wouldn't get again. If you're looking for great Texas-style barbecue in the Inland Empire, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu.

    This bbq surprising has become my favorite after just one visit. I always drove out to destination…read moresmokehouse in Murrietta and decided to come here due to the shorter drive. The brisket is sooo good and fatty. Especially paired with the sauce. If you can only try one thing make sure to get the brisket. They also sell by weight so feel free to get any amount you want. The young woman slicing the meats was very nice when explaining their menu and how to order. I read plenty of reviews before coming here and many noted the sides were lacking but I thought the opposite! The beans were extremely rich and decadent, and the yams were soo tasty without being overly spicy.

Here's what we ordered: Gyro - no tomatoes ** meat was delicious, everything about the gyro was a hit and I've had my share to know what's good Chicken Shawarma sandwich - with everything ** my third daughter ordered this and really enjoyed it Egyptian Pizza - there's only like 3 choices, the guy there recommended the meat, veggies, and cheese. ** I'm not a fan of anything soggy foods because I'm that person that won't eat it right away. The pizza is a little bigger than a personal sized pizza you would get from Pizza hut, but in the form of a calzone cut in 4. It's a little on the greasy end, my first and fourth daughter said it was just okay. Turkey Sandwich - w/no lettuce or tomatoes ** Again, I don't like soggy foods, so ordering this sandwich was a treat for lunch the next day. Sandwich is good, cheese is too thick for me, I tried reheating it during lunch, but the cheese refused to melt...so there's that! Baklava - Ordered a lot because who doesn't like baklava? I will however, suggest that you get the baklava tray in the actual market, it comes with a variety of flavors and it's only $11.99 (wish I had gotten a pic, but here we are)! Overall, I would recommend this spot to others curious about Egyptian food, it's similar to Mediterranean and worth the try. We would most likely return for the Gyro and Chicken Shawarma sandwiches. Oh and we also checked out the juice bar, the drinks were good too!

    One of my biggest fears in life is being forced to eat dry chicken. Luckily, that's not the case…read morehere. But I'll tell you, the hesitation and dread of that first bite was real. I ordered a chicken sandwich with the slaw to go. I had to pull over because I couldn't even hold onto it while driving. It was big and sloppy and I didn't even think I could fit it all in my mouth. But honestly, if it's not sloppy, are you even really enjoying it? Literally, no notes.

    My visit to Cornerstone BBQ was a mixed experience. There were definitely some highlights, but…read morethere were also several issues that kept the meal from living up to the price. Having lived in Texas for many many years and eating barbecue all over the state from popular Michelin star places to Mom and Pop hole in the wall places to food trucks I know what the good barbecue taste like. We decided on a large platter because this was our first time to the restaurant and we wanted to get it taste of everything. We opted for brisket, ribs, chicken and swapped out the pulled pork for jalapeno sausage. This included 4 side dishes and honestly I know they're just sides but it definitely wasn't enough for four adults to enjoy. The large platter says it easily feeds six to eight people but the sides definitely only feed three. The brisket was good compared to California standards. It was moist, flavorful, and cooked just right but lacked a great smoky taste. The loaded fries were another standout. They were absolutely delicious, and the rich cheese sauce paired with the added jalapeños made them even better. Those were easily my favorite items on the menu. Unfortunately, the ribs were inconsistent. Some bites were tender, while others were extremely tough and difficult to eat. The food overall was also much greasier than expected, which took away from the enjoyment of the meal. The service left a lot to be desired. We had to keep asking for basic items throughout our visit, and our drinks didn't arrive until we had asked twice. Having to repeatedly remind the staff for things that should have come automatically made the experience frustrating. The seating arrangement was another disappointment. Our party of four was squeezed around a tiny table, even though there were larger tables available. To make matters worse, a group of six was seated at a three-top table directly behind us, blocking the aisle. People were constantly trying to squeeze between the tables, making the dining area feel cramped and uncomfortable. Considering the price, I expected much better. The portions didn't justify the cost, especially when combined with the inconsistent food quality and service issues. While the brisket and loaded fries were excellent, the tough ribs, greasy food, cramped seating, repeated service problems, and high prices made this a disappointing overall experience. I hope Cornerstone BBQ improves these areas because the restaurant has the potential to be much better.
