Connie C.Connie Chiu: Melt in your mouth good! So buttery and fatty. Fav brisket in all of LA. Spare ribs and pastrami were amazing too. A little on the salty side. Make sure to get the frito pie. Mac and beans were meh.

MarcMarc: Smoke Sheet: Famous brisket, along w/ two different iterations of pork ribs, pulled pork, chicken, + strong selection of sides. Recommend you go on Monday for the pastrami.

Lisa E.Lisa E: Delicious Texas 'cue with tasty sides & beverages, and a pitmaster who's easy on the eyes. But you better get their early. Like all legit barbecue places, when they're out, your SOL.

Andrea T.Andrea Tucker: Pork belly tacos, pork rib taco, lobster taco, and the shrimp taco. YUM

Monica P.Monica Paoluzzi: Start with chips (fresh fried!) salsa and guacamole, then get tacos and fish (I tried both lobster and branzino and they were amazing!). If you prefer meat, ribs are really good too ;) Best mex ever!
