Food 5/5: hands down the best bbq in LA. It's in the Ally way behind the house, and they sell out…read moreFAST! So you better get it before it's sold out. Meat literally melts in your mouth. It's so juicy and meaty. Mmmmmmm yummy. Bbq sauce is also really tasty. Normally it's too sweet but the smokey cow was perfectly balanced. Service 5/5: the serving size is also HUGE! Can feed your whole family. I highly highly recommend it!

It has been well over 3 years ago that we have had Smokey Cow. It was located on Sherman Way in Van…read moreNuys before they took a long hiatus. We were thrilled when we saw Smokey Cow resumed business and we were lucky enough to get some scrumptious BBQ before heading back to NorCal. Our favorite was the Beef Rib. This trip our favorite was the Brisket. My son said it ranks up there with Franklin's and Jack Black's in Texas, home of some of the best BBQ in the nation. The Brisket had an excellent smoke ring, nice seasoning and most of all it was super tender. Just outstanding, hard to get this good of brisket. The Beef Rib and Pork Ribs were pretty good but probably left on the grill just a tinge longer so it wasn't quite as moist as the last time I had Smokey Cow. I also had the homemade Mac and Cheese, pickles, chips and cole slaw. They make everything including the sauce except for the chips. Brisket 5+ Beef Ribs 4.25 Pork Ribs 4.25 Mac and Cheese 4.0 Sauces and sides 4.5 Great guys 5.0 Overall, excellent BBQ, nice guys and priced normally for BBQ faire. On my next trip to SoCal, I will be stopping by to get excellent BBQ and great service. If you haven't been there before, look for the alley entrance that goes behind the houses where the garages are and look for the lighted entrance. Go early, you don't want to miss out on some of the best BBQ in the area. Smokey Cow is my #1 BBQ, Swinging Door #2 and Bludso's #3.

What's nice is that there's a good quantity of wonton chips but unfortunately, the overall taste was just not good. It wasn't good enough for me to finish it. The eel sauce, spicy mayo and such just did not combine well with the wonton chips. It got to the point where I was just looking for the spicy tuna but they put so little of it in the whole thing that I had to just throw it out.

Welcome to The Sourdough Daddy, a five star service and savory bagel pop up shop catering to all…read morethe bready needs in the Los Angeles area from North Hollywood to West Hollywood and few awesome spots in-between, including: Haley Wines Bullet Bar LA Farm Cup Coffee Elysian Barbershop (East Hollywood/Hollywood/Melrose Hill area) I've been hearing about this amazing place for the past couple months and was finally able to try they out. Their 100% naturally leavened bagels come in a a variety of flavors as do their spreads. I was really impressed by the amazing flow this dynamic duo brings with their kindness, quality and service including the demure mindful cutesiness of options, including a lot of vegan friendly ones. They use Kite Hill non-dairy cream cheese for their dairy free folks, which I'd had in the past, but not being a natural cream cheese person growing up I don't typically gravitate to, but might reconsider or at least anytime I find myself enjoying the bread goodness of The Sourdough Daddy. Typically they have up to three or so pop up's each month which are listed on their website as well as their Instagram. Being a small pop and pop shop with the magic of the awesome owner partner husbands, you can definitely see and appreciate the tlc they put into this growing shop on the go. Their black garlic bagel with vegan CC is a ten! With full loafs and bagels by the dozen also available as well. From a variety of breakfast style bagels to microgreens and classic style with a twist you'll definitely enjoy these daddy delights.

They're located in a plaza with lots of parking, especially because it was around 9PM. The line moved quickly and my order came out in a reasonable amount of time. The staff was really friendly and helpful. Unlike other places, I wasn't given attitude when I asked how long the wait was so I appreciated that a lot. I will definitely return, the location, parking, time efficiently, and most definitely their prices were convenient!

The dining room was modern, clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the selection of prints along the walls. The dining room isn't large but it wasn't crowded or cramped. Now for the food: I ordered the breakfast burrito- with bulgogi of course. The burrito was fantastic, the flavors and size were perfect. I knock one star for the sogginess- granted it came out perfectly but the contents moisture quickly reduced the structural integrity of my fantastic burrito. All in all a great place, I highly recommend for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, meetings, casual date or family meal.

The kitchen is a home kitchen with a house keeper washing the dishes by hand. It is a help yourself type of situation. BYOB and pour it yourself. There is a total of 16 seats per night. 6 of us in our reservation. They dim the place for the ambience. Food wise - Total of 7 courses - last 2 was the dessert. There is no printed menu, so you'll just have to ask what it is that you're eating and why the main course -steak- was served first. We were asked to keep the utensils through out the course as they do not change your silverware for every course. Cringe. I had such a high expectation with the food prior to dinner. It felt flat - Everything. The only thing that we like was the corn bread. The steak was tough - some us got super rare and some got overly done tough. Some flavor combination just didn't pair well. Something with a fish dish but sour like hell. Another dish was blue and it just did not look a dish coming out of a fine dining restaurant. Funny the people that were there was talking about Somni, Providence, Melisse.... It just did not even come close. It's like going to a friend's house who's practicing to be a fine dining chef. Pics of the food is posted in this review. None of them was impressive. It just did not go well together. When it came to the 7th course - it was a shaved ice. The Asian assitant cook brought them over and said it's Mandarin ice. So we asked, can you give us a little bit more description... his response was so rude that he said "it's ice with mandarin orange flavor". Oh ok - now you say mandarin oranges. But his condescending attitude is not appreciated. The night is ending and the Chef has not once come to the table to say Hi or introduced himself. People started to leave and he decided to speak to some remaining guests. Then he gets stuck with that particular guest for a long time until everyone is leaving. We probably just had like a Hi and Hello thank you for the food. He seems nice though. Then we all left. We clearly didn't even care anymore at that point. Bad food and bad experience. No parking. Good luck finding a parking on the streets on fountain and Vermont with all the homeless around. It's a hype. It's mysterious because it's really not listed as a restaurant. Not for everyone.

Probably one of the latest smash burgers you can get AND they are a top five contender. I will definitely go back some time. Ambiance is cool. Strip mall. Nice guy working there.
