SALINAS CITY BBQ REVIEWS
Nice place to have delicious brisket and tri-tip (not easy to find). The workers were very nice and they keep the place very clean. Desserts were awesome. I really enjoyed the meat and bbq sauce! I would repeat 100%. Great variety of beers as well.
Stopped by on our drive from San Francisco to LA. Came through for Sunday evening dinner and when we arrived at 530ish nearly all the meat was sold out, only brisket and tri tip were left. Ordered side of cornbread which was yummy! Nice spot to sit and eat, homely, and staff were friendly, would have like to try the other meats but the brisket was good.
Really good food, especially the brisket sandwich. The staff is always friendly and its a nice place to bring friends for a quick bite to eat.

I’ve been going here for years! So good EVERY SINGLE TIME! Portions are hearty food so yummy you’ll become addicted! I’m grateful to have been a customer all these years please Salinas and surrounding areas give this local business lots of love so it’s stays around for generations to enjoy.
They are really up their game since COVID. The triple teriyaki meat plate with rice and macaroni salad (mix soy sauce, rice and salad up) was delicious. Food and service was great. The restroom was clean and stocked.
Best Hawaiian Food Iv had in a while! Shrimp was crispy! The short rib was tender juicy and had the perfect amount of sauce! 10/10 new favorite spot Parking: Close to location.
