    Pulled pork
    Samantha M.

    The food here was so good! I love BBQ and it was the best I've had in Whittier. I had the pulled pork sandwich and Mac n cheese and fries. It was all so good! The service was good the girl who took our order was really helpful and it was done quickly! I will definitely be back, it was so filling and delicious

    Brisket, tri tip and pickles.
    Melissa R.

    Stopped in today for lunch. We ordered the brisket (my favorite), turkey, pork ribs and today they had tri tip. The bark on the brisket was so good, nice smoke ring and tasted like they use the classics SPG seasoning. Meat was tender and delicious. Turkey was juicy and full of flavor. Love the pickle slices they serve with the meat as it adds some nice acidity. Tri tip was really good and tender with a nice smoky flavor. My husband said the ribs were tender and delicious. The plates came with BBQ sauce but the meats were so flavorful that the sauce wasn't necessary but tasted good. I paired my BBQ with a wonderful hazy IPA from Whittier Brewery. BBQ was the best I've had in the area. Will definitely be back and would recommend to friends.

    Have been wanting to try this place -- ordered the pork shoulder, pulled pork sandwich and turkey breast combo ... all were very good! They have a good selection of sides as well ... we tried the potato salad with a mustardy taste, mac and cheese, which was very creamy, and the coleslaw, which was okay. They have a barbecue sauce was good, with just enough spice. They have a space inside the Food Hall with plenty of seating inside and in the beer garden outside. Will definitely be back.

    Really good barbecue!! Barbecue is in a food hall. Our platter came with brisket, pulled pork, and ribs (they were sold out of sausage and turkey) so we were told they would add more portions to meats served and got 4 sides two baked beans and two mac and cheese. Brisket and pulled pork were very good. Didn't try the ribs but hubby said they were good! Mac and cheese was yummy and so were the beans needed a little more chorizo flavor. Service was quick.

    The Brisket is King here and it so juicy and tender it melts in your mouth. The turkey is also to die for and is moist which to me is perfectly cooked. I love when they have their hot sausage special and fried chicken, both are to die for. The elotes, mac, and potato salad are all very tasty sides. The ambiance is relaxed inside Whittier Brewing Company. The staff is always very kind and friendly. 10/10.

    Best BBQ Brisket in California so moist & tender. Potatoe salad with Mac & Cheese. Delicious pickles

    Brisket sandwich and fries
    Johnny M.

    Food: Brisket sandwich, fries, BBQ Beans I am always unsure of what to order at BBQ restaurants as everyone makes they sauces, seasonings, etc different. I played it safe and went with a brisket sandwich, which did not disappoint. The sandwich comes with some brioche type buns that are toasty, piled brisket (about ~8ish pieces), pickles, banana peppers and cheese. The brisket was good, not the best you'll ever have, but def good. I decided to eat the sandwich open faced which is a move that I recommend! The fries are super crispy and you get plenty of them to go alongside the sandwich (when ordering a sandwich, you have the option of fries or potato salad). The BBQ beans were okay, they needed to be hotter, temperature wise, but they were nothing special. Restaurant: This BBQ spot is located inside a building that also houses a small brewery, a pizza spot and a few other small bites restaurants. There is communal seating in the middle via lunch tables. It does get packed during dinner hours. Notes: The sandwich + side of beans was like $25+

    Food tastes good. A little pricier and was going to go back today to get some. But I caught the cashier lady with dark long hair coughing and trying to conceal it into the collar of her shirt without washing her hands. Then proceeds to get the trays for food with parchment paper and licking her fingers to grab the paper from the stack and place it. Completely unsanitary with a sink literally 5 feet away. no gloves, no handwashing. If roles were reversed I'm sure she wouldn't want someone doing that to food she is going to eat!

    One word... obsessed! I ordered 1/2 lb of brisket, 1/2 lb of pork shoulder, and 1/2 lb pork spare ribs along with a side of potato salad and cheddar Mac. They also include bread and the most delicious pickles I've ever had. The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The cheddar mac is really good and the potato salad is also good. Service is excellent. There was a snag with my online order. The owner apologized and I showed him my receipt and he was able to put my order together. I didn't mind waiting as this place is located inside Whittier brewing co (the Nixon plaza/ building). Plenty of seating and options to grab a glass of beer or wine. Located in uptown Whittier in the building directly across Starbucks. There is plenty of parking, but some spots have meters. Make sure to have change handy so you don't risk getting a ticket. Overall, I highly recommend checking this place out especially if you miss Chris and Pitts. The prices are reasonable and the food is great. They also do catering for any occasion. Definitely will be back for the Pit Mac.

    2 - 6oz tri tip combo with Mac & cheese & potato salad
    Renata L.

    Melt in your mouth, juicy goodness tri-tip. This is our Friday night ritual along with beer and dessert. We order from the cashier, they provide a pager and will page when it's ready. Seating area is self-serve. Family oriented vibe with pinball machines.

    This is pretty much a fast food place because it's at the Whittier brewing Company. But their beef brisket is to die for. You have to come early because they sell out fast. Service is OK. People could smile a little more when they're taking your order lol. Ambience well it's the Whittier brewing Company you're outside, which is always good.

The host immediately greeted us with a warm smile, explained that it was a full-service restaurant, and made us feel welcome right away. We were seated almost immediately, which was a great start to our visit. The food definitely lived up to the service. I ordered the chicken plate since I don't eat mammals, and it was flavorful, juicy, and cooked perfectly. My partner ordered the large beef rib. At first, he was surprised because the meat was served off the bone instead of on it, but after the first bite, that didn't matter anymore. The flavor was rich, the meat was incredibly tender, and it quickly became one of the highlights of the meal. One thing you shouldn't skip is trying the different BBQ sauces. They offer three varieties, and each brings something different to the table. My personal favorite was the original it complemented everything perfectly. If you're looking for delicious BBQ with genuinely welcoming service, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back.

Today I took my sister to introduce her to the best steak sandwich around. She started eating before me and said it was not that good. I'm looking at her like she's crazy as I put mayo and mustard on my Sammy. I take the first bite and notice this is NOT the flavor that I had before. Added a little salt and pepper thinking that will help. NOPE! Each bite was tough and loaded with gristle or inedible fat or something that I couldn't separate with my teeth. I'm pulling pieces apart and having to eat around the tough meat. I took the sandwich up to the register and asked them if they changed the cut of meat they use. They said no, it's always been either rib eye or NY. Every single one of the many I'd had before were the same. This one was different. Even looked different, as if it had been run through a machine in an attempt to tenderize it. Didn't work! You could see through some parts kind of like the way a knitted scarf would look If you stretched it out and could see the holes in it. Anyway, the guy said, "You must have got a tough cut" or "bad cut". I can't remember exactly the wording. But then he just shrugged me off. No offer to fix the problem. I was hungry, I hadn't had breakfast, and it was obvious the guy didnt care, so I just went back to my table and ate the rest of the bread and fixings while gnawing off any edible meat from my horrible steak. $26 for a sandwich and fries. Not willing to spend that much and hope I get a good cut of meat. I'm done.

I had to go to the bathroom and when I walked thru the restaurant there were a lot of empty tables. Odd that there would be a wait. There was a table for 4 near the front door, without a reserved sign on it, and it was empty the entire time we waited. We were finally seated and they put us at a table for two. Meanwhile, that table for 4 was still empty. I'm not sure if you've ever spent time with a 10 month old, but clearly the hostess hasn't. They are grabby and want to explore everything they can possibly get their hands on, including hot plates on a table. Luckily, our server knew this and when a large party in the restaurant left, she brought us one of the 2 person tables they'd been using. Fortunately it also aligned with when our food was coming out so we didn't have to worry about our baby burning her hands on the plates put down on our table with a "they're hot" warning. The kitchen was really slow. I'm not sure if they were backed up, but with the amount of empty tables, they really shouldn't have been. It took at least 20 minutes for us to get our appetizer after we ordered it, which was the chile verde fries. Luckily, all of the food made up for the previous paragraphs and is the reason for 4 stars instead of 3. The Chile verde fries were so good! Not too spicy, a great balance of fries, meat, sauce, and cheese. The egg was a nice touch and made the dish feel like chilequilles with fries instead of chips. We also ordered a 3 meat plate with pulled pork, brisket, and tri tip. The pulled pork was pretty standard. The brisket was falling apart delicious and I liked that it didn't have a ton of fat in it. It was interesting that the tri tip had grill marks on it, I don't think I've ever seen that before, but it was very soft and delicious as well. For our sides we got the collard greens and mac and cheese. The collards were very high in vinegar, something we aren't used to, but my husband enjoyed them. The mac and cheese was really good! You can tell they use fresh cheeses as opposed to velveta. The garlic bread was good and really flavorful, but I do wonder why other tables around us seemed to get 2 slices per person and we got 2 slices total. Not a big deal tho, just found it odd. Overall, we really liked Steve's and will be back, as well as recommend it to people. We'll just make sure to have a reservation before we go, and maybe make it for a party of 4 to ensure we get a good sized table.

The Mac isn't the best I've had but it's worth a try. The meats are delicious, except for the chicken. For some reason I wasn't really impressed with the chicken. Service was pretty good and easy parking in the back. After lunch or dinner take a stroll in uptown and check out the shops. Overall Steve's is solid and I'll go back.

Another thing I have to mention: the floors are NOT sticky! This is seriously one of my biggest pet peeves with Korean BBQ restaurants, and this place is noticeably clean and well-kept. One small thing to know, there are no free refills on soda. But they do have a soft-serve station, which is the perfect way to finish off a flavorful and very satisfying dinner. Amazing meat quality, generous selection, excellent service, and a clean restaurant. Definitely one of my favorite AYCE Korean BBQ finds in the area. I almost don't want everyone to know about it BUT they deserve the 5 stars!

Definitely not how Hawaiian mac salad should taste, and I was even more annoyed that I paid for extra. The kalbi was decent but got way too fatty as I ate. I was happy they topped it with green onions (flavor was good) 7/10. They also didn't have a teriyaki/soy glaze or house brown sauce, which was disappointing. I tried the katsu sauce instead and that was easily a 9/10. Customer service was decent. Overall, not terrible, but not necessarily great either. I wouldn't drive out of my way or necessarily recommend it.
