Chicken little bit dry, but Smokey and delicious. When ordering BBQ ribs, ask to make sure the meat is falling off the bones.

The pulled pork was amazing! I think the worker said this restaurant is based in Hawaii. The pork was very moist, went well with the house bbq sauce they had. Service was very great, the workers are very kind.

AMAZING place. Amazing staff, amazing food, amazing atmosphere. After every bite of food, my friend and I just looked at eachother in disbelief because of how good it was. I took a bite of the chili and immediately called my mom just to rave about it. The pulled pork grilled cheese is to die for. I highly recommend this place and will absolutely come back.

BBQ ribs and pork were amazing. My picky kids asked for more. Definitely recommend. Staff was friendly and place was clean. They even serve breakfast, which is great if your staying nearby or getting a head start on a beach day. I’ll definitely come back

We found this place on a weekend trip to Huntington Beach. Nothing too fancy – just tasty smoked BBQ. I had the smoked chicken and my son Hawaiian burger and both were very good.
