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!!

Excellent smoked food…read more We went for lunch on a weekday and they did not have a wide selection of meats available. They did have ribs and chicken and that is what we ordered. Wow. Soooooo good. Can't say enough about the flavor and smokiness of ribs and chicken. May want to call ahead to see what they have available. Parking is a bit of a chore and you will have to find residential parking surrounding the restaurant. They have very limited seating available. On the weekends there is a line for the food.

I came by this location today. I heard so much about it and I was excited to try it. Now mind you,…read moreI had just left Winco and purchased two slabs of ribs one for 16 and the other for 17. There was no one in the establishment, but hey it was a bit early, but it was lunch time. When I saw the prices, I was shocked $47.00 for ribs, I ran my happy ass up out of there quickly. That was for one meal I am thinking that the food, was good, but the price was certainly not for me.

My review is based on the food truck. It was my son's birthday. He was allowed to chose anything he wanted for dinner. Any price point... anything. Well i had seen this on Instagram and shared it with him two weeks prior. At first he wanted to go to Nobu or there were a few other high end options, but that is not his style honestly. Luckily, he remembered the post that I shared. He wanted to go here. Well, buckle up kids, we are going on a field trip! We left work/schools early and took a drive to Compton. When our navigation said we had arrived it suggested we park in the lot across from the library. Ok. There directly in front of the library was the food truck. There was a small line, so that was ideal. Not a long wait. My other smaller human and i went to wash their hands in the library. When i came out he had ordered the hungry man or something. It was more than enough for us. The oxtail was good. The ribs were good. The chicken was good. The cornbread was yummy. Just not over the moon for the greens... and i loooove collard greens. But that's ok. We went for the meats. They were out of the dinosaur ribs, so maybe if we go early enough next time, we can try those. We took it across the street to the park and ate and that was enough time for the small one to also play to get energy out before we headed home. The drive home was long, now that rush hour traffic had started. But none of us complained, because the meal was worth it.

I've been here a few times before, mainly for the sides, but after this experience I honestly don't know if I'll return. I ordered a lunch chicken plate and was never told it would take over 40 minutes. Had I known, I either wouldn't have ordered or would have asked for a refund much sooner. Meanwhile, customer after customer who ordered after me received their food before I did. When I finally got my order, there was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay. I asked if there was anything they could do for the inconvenience, and the only thing offered was a free slushy. I don't even drink soda. A side dish or something more thoughtful would have made more sense. To make matters worse, when I got home, the chicken portion was very small and the two sides were tiny about the size of dressing cups. It's disappointing because I actually do like their flavors, but good food only goes so far when the customer service experience is this poor.

I initially ordered food to take home, but after seeing the terrible traffic on the 91 Freeway, we decided to eat inside the restaurant instead. I informed the cashier of our change in plans, and she acknowledged it. Once we were seated, we asked for utensils and plates for two. After three different staff members came out, the third one finally told us that they couldn't provide any utensils, plates, or napkins for us to eat our food. This policy is absolutely ridiculous--especially considering we had already purchased the food from them! I should not have to beg for something so basic! And just to add, the place was empty. We came to support a small business, but we will definitely not be returning.

This has always been one of my favorite places to go growing up down there and was a treat to hen we did go. I still make the 2hr trek from Ventura and go here once in awhile. After I heard they closed the Bellflower location I made it a point on 9/5/2026 to the Downey location. It was packed and they had a wait which I (Myself) was happy to see, I waited about 10 or 15 minutes and ordered the baby back ribs - Hawaiian style along with the Hawaiian style chicken with a salad, BBQ beans, and bread. It did not disappoint! 5 for me! Keep in mind this location is one of the original if not thee 1st one to open. It has a ambiance feeling when in there = Landmark. Chris & Pitts' Downey location has been operating since 1949, the year the chain was founded. All available records point to the Downey restaurant being one of the original early locations that remained open continuously while other branches closed over the decades. What a Gem! I almost forgot, the service was excellent too.

What happened to this restaurant?…read more I've been coming here with friends and family for 35 years, and I can honestly say I've never experienced this restaurant this bad. The food was horrible, the service was practically nonexistent, and the restaurant itself felt neglected and poorly maintained. There was also an unpleasant smell inside. Then there's the steak--look at the photo. After all these years, this is what is being served? I understand restaurants have an off day, but this felt like more than just one bad meal. The entire experience was disappointing from beginning to end. They recently closed another location, making this the last surviving restaurant in the Greasy Pitts family. That makes it even more disappointing to see the condition this place is in. After 35 years of coming here, I never thought I would write this review. But loyalty only goes so far when the food, service, cleanliness, and overall experience have fallen this far. Very sad to say, but I would not recommend this restaurant and I have no reason to come back. Hopefully they can turn this around and higher a manager and fix it.

When I saw that the menu was slightly different at each one, I knew I had to come to the Artesia restaurant specifically for the ube bibingka! The Artesia store is in a rather large shopping center that has LOTS of eateries as well as a 99 Ranch Market, so parking during peak hours and weekends can become quite the hunt. The interior decor and set up is very similar in both locations. This one is also very clean and seating is spaced comfortably. Orders are placed at the counter and your food is brought to your table when it's ready. Exclusive to the Artesia location's menu are 3 different kinds of pansit, so of course I had to try the pansit bihon as well as a chicken inasal plate. For dessert I had to try the 2 varieties if bibingka that were not available in Anaheim: ube and Macapuno. My foodie friend ordered the chicken skewers plate and an original bibingka. Everything was SO good!!! My chicken inasal plate came with 2 portions of leg & thigh, java rice, a small sampling of papaya salad, and a cup of egg drop soup. Whatever they marinate the chicken in made the meat SO tender and flavorful. The pansit bihon filled an entire to go container! The glass noodles were light (compared to egg noodles) and the whole dish was seasoned perfectly. Even with sharing the pansit with my friend, I still ended up taking more than half home with me. Same for the bibingkas. I ended up sharing the bibingkas with my son later that evening. The ube one is a must try for ube lovers. The macapuno one had a generous amount of coconut "strings" in it. Both were the perfect combination of creamy, light, yet decadent and very addictive. Service was friendly and efficient. Food is made fresh when ordered and came out fairly quickly. (bibingkas are made in fresh batches throughout the day). It's safe to say that I am now a huge fan of Tony's Barbecue. I took a little looksie at the menu for their West Covina location and I spotted some things I wanna try there as well. Stay tuned for a review for them soon :)
