David Fogel

Beef ribs are an art in this restaurant . This is worth the drive. The Texas ribs in Texas aren't better. Fun decor -- for baseball lovers, can you identify this picture?

Cristian Jimenez

The HoundDog! Great, absolutely great pieces of meat. Top it of with their 'XXX' sause.. You wont be able to stop eating. Cool down afterwards with either the banana pudding or key lime pie

Connie Chiu

Drooling over baby back ribs and Memphis ribs . baby back are a little juicer and tender ???? sliced brisket are good. Skip the tri tip . Mac n cheese , collard greens , and sweet potato mash are solid.

Oliver

oh boy, stumbled into this place one night from drinking at wurstkuche. I wish I had started the night here! beef ribs are to murder for. Sauces are tangy , not too sweet, perfect to my liking.

Mezcal El Silencio ????

Our favorite BBQ joint !!! #MezcalElSilencio Is in the house now, please enjoy it along a cold beer , will change your bbq experience. Enjoy!! The ribs are the bomb!!!

Dave Campbell

It's all good. Tri-tip, brisket , baby back ribs . Oh I love the smashed sweet potatoes and you must have the desert (pie )

Chris Cookson

Get one of the variety platters if you are in a big group, it's the best way to try out all their stuff. Pulled pork is a bit dry, porno sauce is a must

Dennis Murray

Brisket was delicious and well seasoned. Wasn't the most tender I've ever had but was very good. Pork and beans and collard greens sides were both great.

Bailey

Very authentic southern food ???? I had the brisket , mac and cheese and baked beans . Absolutely delicious ????????

Jeigh Hall

Omg everything is great! Almost went across the road to Roadhouse because it looked busier. Glad i didn’t, we were seated quickly and the food was beyond delicious omg!

Privy.net

Beer braised beef brisket , Carolina style pulled pork and more conventional BBQ chicken sandwiches are all available here. The pulled pork is great, but the beef brisket has a juiciness to it. Read more

Eva-Lotta Lamm

We had smokey wings , Texas beef ribs , baby back pork ribs and pulled pork . All very nice. My highlight was the beef and the side of sautéed okra . Yum!

Justin Ordoveza

The lunch specials here are a really good deal . The pulled pork sandwiches and the sides are authentic . Park across the street at the lot.

Marco M. Spinelli

Amazing, from the ribs to the pulled pork , brisket . Amazing atmosphere. Best bbq ever had in my life

Rachel Mercer

Go early if possible to avoid the dinner rush. Get the pulled pork , with some vinegar and hot sauce . I loved the Mac N Cheese but you really can't go wrong with any set of sides.

Ross Sheingold

All of the sauces are delicious. The chicken wings are meaty and juicy - my favorite in the area.

Jenny Simmons

You HAVE TO try the Banana Pudding ! It is hands down the best we have ever had, not bad bar b que either and we are from the Deep South so that is a compliment!:)

Eric Janssen

Couldn't decide between ribs or pulled pork so I got them both. Wow, they were phenomenal! However, one of the best parts - the cornbread ! Best cornbread I've ever had.

Brandon Scott Soto

The Memphis Ribs , mashed potatoes and Mac n cheese were bomb! Try to mix the hot and sweet BBQ sauces . Banana pudding was the ass kicker. Sooooo good.

Jeffrey Vaughan Jr

The Texas style rib is sooooo good it's like rib eye on a bone. Really is the best beef I've tasted in a long time!

OG

Excellent food. Excellent Service . Can't go wrong with the beef brisket w/ double mac n' cheese

Guy Fieri, tucks into some classic American BBQ at Baby Blues where they fresh roast hot peppers for a sauce they call Triple-X on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Find more tips at Food Network Local. Read more

Victoria G.

Very nice bbq ! Especially tri tip and mac'n'cheese. The only thing we didn't like is coleslaw

Jeffrey Fahey

Ive been here a handful of times but tonight was the best. Pulled pork / fried okra / pork & beans. Top 5 best barbecue experiences of my life.

Nicole Lingner

In the mood for BBQ - this is THE place: start with Suicide King (shrimp ) but do try to move on, don't just order 5 of those... Texas Style Beef Rib , Pulled Pork and Collard Greens constitute my meal Read more

Carri Pittman

split one of the meat dishes, MUST have mac and cheese on the side, and grab a couple shiners with a date! if the lines long, bring a bottle of wine/beers and sneakily drink it outside while waiting

Mario Vassiliades

The beef brisket is just..... EPIC and that corn bread could be a birthday cake its so good! ????

Stephen Yee

Personally, I think the XXX sauce is the best. The women are a very close second. They have the most attractive waitresses ...at the West LA location, that is... ;)

Jed Singer

Dear god this place is amazing. Tri tip sandwich is fantastic and mac is out of this world. Banana pudding is also deadly.

Mike Carpenter

Kool Aid is a must. Memphis Style ribs were the stand out item on the menu! For sides - Mac and Cheese , Okra , Collard Greens , Pork and Beans - All Good! One of my favorite places in LA!

David Taitelbaum

The Memphis BBQ is fall off the bone pork awesomeness. Hot links and Mac 'n Cheese are also delectable.

Shariq Hussain

Hands down the best bbq joint ever. And I was born and raised in Texas. ..had a large group (6 people) the wait was one hour but well worth it.

Michael Kalec

Great place for casual BBQ . Not going to knock your socks off, but does the trick for some great eats.

Moe Dexler

Got the Memphis Queen. Very good ribs here. Try the XXX sauce to make you feel alive!

Rick Ferreira

Chicken wings , ribs , Marion county chicken , and sides,,,, all awesome!! Try the sweet/spicy wings !

Kelly English

The real deal. Damn good food. Portions were large. 4 meat combo with sides were too much!

Dan Buhler

Great smoked wings . Try the spicy and sweet ones.

Christine Ngo

Pork , pork and more pork ! Order ribs and pulled pork and pour vinegar liberally all over the meat. Dip in the hot BBQ sauce--it's the best one. Great mac & cheese . I want some now!

Gabe
