They exceeded all expectations! Man, the food was abundant and delicious!!!! The Quality of the meat was outstanding, even two days later the leftovers were still moist, and there was no fat in the pulled pork! The salads were fantastic, obviously homemade and I am very very picky about potato salad! It was delicious! As was the mac & cheese. The price was very reasonable and I will definitely use them again. I highly recommend them!

We had the pleasure of working with Berkeley's Backyard Barbecue for our wedding at Corona Regional…read morePark and Museum in April, 2025. From our very first interaction, Berkeley went above and beyond to earn our business and was a joy to work with throughout the process. He was enthusiastic about accommodating our theme and budget, created a menu to please all palates, and was very responsive to communication and requests including, timely submission of paperwork to the venue. On our big day, the staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly took pride in what they were doing which made the experience even more special for us and our guests. Berkeley arrived early with a giant smoker in tow, and proceeded to prepare an amazing barbeque, served buffet style by his professional staff. At the end, Berkeley's team made sure everything was set out so we could continue to nibble throughout the day. The food was incredible!! On Berkeley's recommendation, our entrees included juicy lemon pepper chicken breast, sliced for ease of serving, thick pieces of high quality, smoked salmon, and the most flavorful rosemary tri-tip packed in a dry rub Berkeley credits to his father. Side dishes included, bow tie macaroni and cheese oozing with a cheese blend that complimented the entrees, brightly colored smoked vegetables, and "to die for" mashed potatoes. Salad, with Berkeley's special dressing, and fluffy rolls rounded out the menu. Every single dish was packed with flavor, cooked to perfection, and made with top-tier ingredients. Portions were generous, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how good everything was. Don't forget to bring some "to-go" containers because your guests will be excited to take some home with them. I researched several BBQ caterers, including popular chain stores. Although I could have found a less expensive option, I could not have found anything approaching the quality, quantity, and service of Berkeley's Backyard Barbeque. So, if you're looking for a caterer who delivers not just amazing food, but a great overall experience, I highly recommend Berkeley's Backyard Barbecue. They helped make our wedding day unforgettable.

We don't write reviews on average places, only on horrible or great…read more We booked Bolsa BBQ for my son's graduation party and hosted 50 people. Bolsa BBQ is neither good or bad but it is EXTRAordinary. Kenny is a class act with great personality and outstanding attention to detail from point of contact, communication, punctuality, preparation, set up and clean up. Oh and I have not mention the quality of the food and more so the TASTE was amazing. I could write a review on each item but it would take too long, so I will make it simple. We had two types of ribs, chicken and sausage. Sides were cole slaw, baked beans, potato salad and corn on the cob. .Each item would blow any high end restaurant out of the water by a long shot.

First off, I am friends with the owners of Bolsa BBQ. Friends or not, this is an honest review of…read moretheir food/buisness. Okay so, Bola BBQ is a catering company based out of Corona that uses a mobile rotisserie smoker unit to cater events around Orange County. They specialize in smoked ribs and meats for birthday/private/corporate/fundraising/festivals events. They even have a baby shower an a wedding under their belt. Although their motto is, "Smoke + Low Heat + Meats = Good Eats" they do a lot more than just BBQ, so just ask and they will cater the menu to your needs. They recently took 2nd place in the rib division at the Fountain Valley BBQ Bonanza this month. Now this is a big deal because they were up against 4 or 5 major competitive BBQ organizations that travel around the US attending and competing at these types of events. So congrats to them. Other events they partake in includes the Long Beach Lobster Festival, Tet Festival in Garden Grove and etc. The events are typically three (3) days and with each new day, they use different woods (ie. apple, cherry hickory and etc.) to smoke their meats to add an additional flavor profile on top of their own personal rub mix. So it's interesting to come back the next day to try out the new flavor profile and compare which wood flavor you prefer. I personally prefer the cherry over the apple because it has a slightly sweet fruity mild smoke flavor vs the apple which is also sweet but it is a bit denser in flavor profile in my opinion. The viscosity of their sauce is just right. Not too thick, not too thin. It is sweet, tangy and not too spicy. I personally like to have my ribs fall off the bone because it is easier to eat and less messy. So when I eat their pork or beef ribs I truly enjoy them because they are easy to consume due to the melt in your mouth feel. The ribs are super tender and juicy. For their sides at the events/festivals I have tried their BBQ beans and corn bread that are also smoked in the rotisserie. They are good and have a nice mouth feel. The cornbread is not dry and have actual bits of corn in them. The BBQ beans are yummy, perhaps it's the bacon they add to the dish. People do say bacon makes everything taste better. I never really ate their coleslaw since I am not big on veggies but I hear it's pretty good as well. At the OC Fair there was this guy selling "THE BIG RIB." When I first saw it online I was like "WHAT?!?!" but then I saw other photos posted online and I figured it was not what it claimed to be. My boyfriend ended up buying one at the fair it was good but it was weird how the bone in "THE BIG RIB" was sliced in half which by the way does not occur naturally in nature so I figured something was up. It was good but not something we'd get again. Bolsa BBQ's also had their version of the big rib called the "Dino" bone or the short rib. It was pretty darn tasty. I prefer this version over the OC Fair one. I was already stuffed from the pork ribs and the Nephew's pulled pork nachos which included beans, cheese, coleslaw and a drizzle of BBQ sauce so took the rib home and ate it the next day. It was still good and MASSIVE. That thing can feed at least 2 people easy, but in my case ONE, YUM-O. As for the nachos they used actual nacho cheese and not the shredded stuff so that is always a two thumbs up for me. Nachos are not nachos when restaurants use the shredded stuff. From time to time they offer turkey legs as well and they are pretty tasty. My orders have always been correct, hot and fast so no complaints on that end. They even offer "kids meals," which not all food vendors tend to cater to at festivals. Just remembered, I did have a taste of their whole suckling pig with mango salsa once. Now that was good! It was like their pulled pork sandwiches but better. The contrast in hot smoked suckling pig combined with cool sweet tanginess of the mango and peppers made the dish. If I were to compare Bolsa BBQ's food to other BBQ restaurants, I would say Bolsa BBQ is above average so 4 stars. I almost forgot, they also give FREE SAMPLES of their pork/beef ribs and pulled pork during the events. Make sure you stop on by and try them out. You will be hooked! It's always nice to be able to sample the product before you buy, it's like buying a car or clothes.
