Review Hambone's Bar & Grill - Huntington Beach

Real deal wood smoked bbq meats, good sides casual atmosphere. Get the tri tip authentic santa maria style, super tender and mouth watering. Meat sweats tonight!

Smoked brisket sandwich is rich and vibrant with flavor! First bite, instant mouth watering. Kinda sad not many people go there. But do go! Casual attire and relaxed ambiance. Sandwiches come with your choice of one side.

Good local spot for BBQ. The sauces were good and the food wasn’t over cooked. Service was great, they were attentive and helpful. Plenty of beers on tap. Good place to watch the game and have good food. We will be back.

1st time trying this place out. I was craving some Beef Ribs and found this place with the help of Yelp. Checked out the reviews and made our way here. It was an off time of our visit, so my wife and I were literally the only people dining in at the restaurant. Which was really nice actually. I ordered the Beef Center cut Ribs. Oh-Emm-Gee!!..... Seriously the BEST beef ribs I've ever had. I am one of those guys that will search out beef ribs to try at new-to-me spots. I can't believe how meaty, tender and perfectly cooked they were. Each bite was heavenly. I ordered them dry because I love to taste the meaty goodness. (that's what she said!) I did however order a side of the spicy sauce. I'm not usually a fan of sweet. But this is the definition of "sweet heat". Little sweet at first taste, then it transitions quickly into this tasty tangy heat. Loved it! Wife ordered the pastrami sandwich. Again, I happen to be an aficionado of pastrami, just like beef ribs. HANDS DOWN,..... The BEST pastrami we've EVER had! It was smoked and you could taste it. Thinly sliced almost crispy around the edges and flavorful as heck! The bun was extremely soft and fresh. Wife and I both LOVED the sandwich! Sides!..... I got 2 sides with my ribs. I had the Spicy Collard greens and the potato salad. Both were delicious! Greens were fresh and tender and they didn't skimp on the spicy. Mouth was burning after a few bites. In a good way. Potato salad,.... Well let me just say this. First bite of the potato salad and I was instantly time warped back to being a kid and Mom making potato salad. It was delicious as well and totally reminded me of Mom's potato salad. My Mom passed away a couple years ago and this potato salad was a welcomed memory of her. Overall a fantastic experience! Service was great, decor was nice and almost forgot,.... Great pricing on draft beers. Decent selection as well. Wife got a huge mug of Stella for $6 bucks.......like whaaaaat?? We will definitely be back soon!

Good flavor but a bit pricey for a lunch. They have no lunch menu so expect to pay close to $20 per person. I got the BBQ pork ribs with the spicy sauce which had good flavor. Cole slaw was decent. Green beans were overcooked. Clean atmosphere and friendly staff.

This was my first time here. Came with my mom and we had a blast. We sat on the patio which is gorgeous. Wish I took pictures but I'll definitely be back to do so on my next visit. It is a little pricy but you get what you pay for. They give you a lot of food and amazing quality as well. We got the 3 meats and 2 sides (#5) Chicken: fall of the bone amazing. Tri-tip: Delicious & Brisket: Looks just like the tri-tip but when you eat it you will instantly know the difference. It was melt in your mouth delicious 😋 We are going low carb so opted out of the BBQ sauce and still was amazing. We got the green beans and fried okra. Dipped those babies in ranch and it was amazing! The waitress was amazing and the whole experience was top notch. Will definitely be coming back on our next special occasion.

Great happy hour specials. You can't beat tacos or wings and a pitcher of beer for $20 while the NFL games are on. I love the pumpkin cider. The place is clean, the food is good, the staff is friendly and price is right. I love this place.

We made our own assortment combo and were completely satisfied, we got 1/4 lb of tritip, 1/4 of pastrami, sides of mashed potatoes, cloeslaw, & mac 'n cheese, because classics, & the peach cobbler with ice cream for dessert. We got both the cpassic & spicy bbq sauces because we needed to try the comparison for science, both were amazing, the spice has subtle growth. We really should have ordered more pastrami and we were drying to try the sweet potato fries, guess we will have to go back for the other items that kept jumping off the menu at us. Decisions are hard when you are hungry.

The food was great and the service was even better. We took my friend here to celebrate his 88th birthday. I had called ahead to see if they had any kind of cakes and they said they did not , but we could bring our own. We decided to just go somewhere after dinner for dessert. But after we were done eating the server came out with a dessert with a candle on it. That really made his day. As for the food, it was all excellent. There was five of us and the bill was under $200 . And that was with two appetizers. My friends took a lot of food home with them. I highly recommend this food establishment. I believe our server was Elaine. But everyone was very friendly. We will definitely be eating here again.

Hambones is great bbq! Had the baby back ribs, mac n cheese and fries last night. The ribs were seriously perfect! I usually get the brisket on a bun and that is awesome as well. Several visits, no complaints.

Originally established in Bellflower this second location in Huntington Beach is just as amazing serving the outstanding barbecue they are known for. Each item is to die for, thank me later you will not be disappointed.

The best BBQ in Orange County period ! Super tasty Chicken tri tip and ribs . Cooked to perfection moist meaty with smoke and topped by the best sweet and spicy BBQ sauce I have ever had . Should be sold in a bottle at Costco. Great portions. Well packaged fresh and hot. The best bbq beans around also and the banana pudding is well worth ordering in large only. Corn bread and Mac n cheese is excellent. I have eaten inside lots of times but it’s so nice to have it delivered. If you love BBQ visit in person but rest assured this bbq is great as well delivered. Well done Hambones your BBQ is great . You want the best bbq in Orange County California come here or order delivered

Visiting family in the area i wanted some bbq and found Hambones. The staff were amazing and really helpful with picking the right menu items. the food was amazing and very generous portions. So good i bought the whole family back to try it aswell. Back at Christmas so i will be in to visit again.

I love me some Hambones. The service has always been good to me, whether I come in alone or with friends or my girlfriend. The place is clean and comfortable. The food is fantastic. The brisket and tri tip are some of the best in the area, and the ribs are quite good also. The tangy housemade BBQ sauce is delicious. I've been coming here for a few years now and have no plans to stop.

OMG, order a No.21 Sampler plate. I'm 6.4 250 and I needed a Doggy bag. The meats So tender it falls off the Bone. You know a good BBQ joint when the BBQ beans are to die for. Now the Baby Back Pork Ribs are Sooooo meaty you'll wanna Slap the Cook """They are Huge...OMG. I almost needed to Carried out on A Stretcher I ate So Much...And I Am Hell-a serious here

Went back recently, everything was just as good as it was 5 years ago!! Amazing bbq. Same menu as Bellflower location. Every meat smoked to perfection. No wrong choices on the menu.

This place serves the best ribs and brisket and big variety of soul food side...Service is super friendly and fast. I just discovered my favorite bbq place � Amazing food served at hambone bbq ����

This place serves outstanding ribs and brisket and a variety of soul food sides. Candied sweet potatoes on the weekend. Service is friendly and fast. I went once for lunch and discovered my newest favorite BBQ place. I came back with my wife a couple days later because the food is that good. We'll definitely be back.

We are on vacay so we came in about 830pm 30 minutes b4 close. Our server Amanda was nothing but hospitable from the get go. She was very helpful and let us sample the bbq sauces b4 we ordered. The food was delish!! We had ribs, baked beans, all the pulled meats, and the must order side mac n cheese. My question is would you go back? I say "YES"!!

Really really good food. I think the best BBQ for the price. The three meat combo with two large sides is an awesome meal. Three small issues: 1) on occasion the food is not hot hot. 2) no salt and pepper on the tables. 3) cheesy handy wipes.

Awesome food and a great staff. They made us feel very welcomed. Always checked in with us. The BBQ was very good. Great flavor, and tender meat. Sides and onions rings also didn't disappoint. .

This place I brought my family to that traveled from LA and also South OC as they wanted to try because they no good BBQ. Not only was the food great the service by Tracy was by far the best ever. It's almost like she was apart of our family cracking jokes with my uncle. The music of good old Blues was just the icing on the cake. It's a must try as we know what we are having for Thanksgiving...Hambones BBQ!

Service is kinda slow.. but the tri tip was good.. brisket was okay.. the mash potatos and baked beans were good..my daughter was not impressed with the mac & cheese. potato salad had zero flavor.. the corn bread was dry and flavorless.. i was very sad about both of these.. the mild bbq sauce was decent.. the banana pudding was GREAT. A little pricey imo.. i will probably not come back and if i do it will only be for the banana pudding.

This place has excellent BBQ ribs and brisket! There sauce is homemade and also there cornbread is delicious! The people that work there are very nice and provide excellent service. I had there macaroni and cheese and bake beans to go with the BBQ ribs and it was awesome!

The three meat platter was great, the server was very attentive Clara, my only suggestion is to get better wines. We'll be back!

Enjoyed some amazing food with great friends! Our first visit to Hambone's and it won't be our last. Olivia, our waitress was simply the best!!

My new place to go. Brisket fried rice was the best ever. The garlic mashed are awesome too. Can't beat the price.

great food, I love the choice of bbq sauce you can have. Really good sides as well. My husband says the best ribs, they melt off the bone!

Our friends invited us to eat at Hambone's at Hunting Beach, our very first time it was amazing! I had their baby back ribs with their mild sauce, and a side of their homemade Mac & cheese it's simply DELICIOUS!! If you make it to dessert, the banana putting is a must! Great customer service, the atmosphere is awesome & welcoming. I definitely recommend Hambone's!

Absolutely the best bbq place in a 25 mile radius! Everything is so fresh!

I had the Soul bowl,which was very delicious and very fulfilling,macncheese,black eye peas and brisket on top ummm good

Love Hambones BBQ!!! It's our go to spot for celebrations and family get togethers. Best BBQ in the OC!! Olivia is the bomb as are all the employees.
