Came across LA Brisket on social media and decided to try it since it's about 20+ minutes from me…read more I got the brisket bowl, about eight thin slices of brisket, slaw, two scoops of rice, and a green sauce. The rice tasted like Filipino garlic rice, which was a nice touch. Overall, really good. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and didn't need extra sauce, which I always look for in good BBQ. Portion was solid for around $15-$16+. Customer service was great, everyone was friendly and welcoming. It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall in a plaza, but there's plenty of parking. Inside is dim but clean, and the wooden seating fits the BBQ vibe. I'd definitely come back.

I wanted to try this place out because I drive by it every day. It looks nice from the outside,…read moreespecially at night. My 13 year old grand daughter and I had lunch there and neither one of us liked our food. I don't think I ever tasted brisket I didn't like.... Until now! 6 hours later I keep burping up smoke. Like I drank a bottle of liquid smoke. My grand daughter had the brisket bowl and she said the rice had no flavor at all but she ate the brisket and she said it was fine. The funny thing is that her brisket wasn't as smoky as mine. It was pretty dry though. I had the sandwich,,, I think it was the 405. Anyway I took most of the meat out because it was very dry and very very smoky. The dressing and greens were good. The brisket was All smoke no flavor, no juicy, no wanting to eat the full sandwich. I also ordered sweet potato fries and they were good but the portion was very small for the price. There was no one in there but one other guy taking photos with a ring light and making it look better than it tasted. All smoke and mirrors if you ask me. The service was good but then again, no one else was there. They could have given us more than one napkin though.

Really liked this place. Wish they hadn't changed the menu; still sad they closed already…read more Found a brand new place in compton called 'City BBQ & Catering' on 1001 rosecranse. Been twice now cuz that smoked brisket is , in my opinion, pretty damn good.

As…read moreluck would have it, we went to a concert over the weekend and decided to find food somewhere between the venue and our house on our way back home. The food did NOT disappoint!! The dining room was pretty empty but I was eyeballing the patio section (cuz I WILL be coming back)! I didn't realize it was counter ordering, (which sometimes gives me a sense of pressure cuz I like to take my time reviewing every item on the menu first), but luckily there were folks in front of us and nobody behind us (so I had a little time). I ordered the brisket grilled cheese and waffle fries, while my husband had the Nashville hot chicken fries. They had a BOGO deal on beer (he approved of the Mexican Lager) and I had the strawberry lemonade. Everything was amazing and the workers were really nice. We'll be back!!

We were seated at a comfy table, and our server was so nice the entire time. ​The food was amazing: we started with the famous garlic rolls, which are delicious with that soft texture and that buttery, garlicky flavor that welcomes you in. You seriously can't just have one. The ribs are a masterpiece: the meat falls right off the bone, packed with flavor and finished with a spectacular barbecue sauce. We also had a cabbage salad with peanuts that was delicious and exceeded our expectations. Without a doubt, this will be one of my favorite spots in California

It's so good. The zero-proof delightful beverages. The service was fast and friendly. The booths are large and cushy. Highly recommend!!!

There is a self service kiosk or you can place your order with them. Their Hawaiian bbq looks and tastes amazing. Plenty of seating, but its always mostly empty, most people end up getting carry-out than dining in.

Small place. Very clean. They have an ordering kiosk and take orders at the counter. Not sure why…read morethey need both. There was no acknowledgement when we walked in so I assumed we were supposed to use the Kiosk, but others coming in after us bypassed the kiosk and ordered at the counter. I ordered the bbq pork with rice and greens and I received the pork with greens and macaroni salad. It took a while for the food and I was hungry so I didn't bother to have them correct the order. The pork was grilled well and had good flavor. The salad had way too much dressing and the macaroni salad was not very good. Not I'm sure I will be back with so many other similar restaurants around.
