It took several minutes for service. There was nobody behind the register or at the window. There was also only one small table inside which was kinda weird. That said, their BBQ was actually delightful. I got their pulled pork with sides of mac & cheese and potatoe salad. The pork had a good smokey flavor and wasn’t too dry like a lot of other SoCal BBQ joints.

My preference is to always leave a positive review as I know many entrepreneurs have made sacrifices to realize their dreams to open a restaurant.
I truly wanted Robert Earls to be mouthwatering tasty: convenient location, pleasant welcome by staff, picturesque food. Unfortunately, the greens and potato salad were both very salty. I was more disappointed that the rib tips were dry. It’s too bad because the sauce was a nice combination of sweetness with a touch of heat. Cooking great ribs is an art, so is the ability to determine the right amount of sauce that covers the ribs. Some of my rib-tips were sauced adequately and some had relatively no sauce.
While my experience wasn’t the positive experience that I was hoping for, I won’t rule out giving it a second chance.

Since the pandemic began we have made it a point to support small businesses, food places mostly. I saw this place on google and decided to try it out, since the reviews looked good. This can’t not be the same bbq you all are talking about in the reviews. The bbq didn’t taste fresh, it had tons of sauce on top. So much that I didn’t even see the brisket. The links taste like a big hot dog and it was sliced into thin pieces(Why?). The Mac and cheese was mushy, no whole noodle in site. The potato salad was what you expect to get from restaurants, nothing special. Y’all definitely need to take “must have” off of the banana pudding. There was no bananas in it and not even pudding. It was some kind of whipped vanilla fluff with wafers mixed in. I’m just being honest. People want to support small businesses, but the quality also needs to be worth it.

It’s good! I wanted to order extra to take on the plane. I’m still considering calling to see if they will ship it.The place is clean. Sauce is good. It’s cooked right. Price is good. Employees are nice. We have a winner.

Some of the best bbq I’ve had since I was young. Reminds me of my dad’s bbq beef ribs. I seriously was taken back home to Texas! I love this place. So glad I found it!

Robert Earl’s took me out of this world on my tastebuds! So delicious! I loved the beef ribs!! Had so much meat on from your usual you see at the grocery store. I got the beef lovers and mini tex. All meats were delicious!! Definitely recommend this place. I’ve driven by so many times since I live literally 10 mins away. I thought it was just other bbq place since the ones I’ve been to weren’t so good and made me stop looking for good real bbq. I will definitely visit this place again before my move back east. I’m sad I didn’t come sooner and give them a try! Thanks for the wonderful lunch today!! Thanks to Kevin at the front counter taking orders too! He was very hospitable and coincidentally he mentioned North Carolina when he spoke of how bbq is done back east when I told him we came from there…and we really were from NC.

Great customer service and I can see why, they charge are a little pricey. It’s a good portion of food. I had the chicken dinner with mac and cheese with greens.
My baby had the rib tops dinner with greens and beans.

I ordered the three meat combos with two sides ~ I truly believe that it was enough meat for me to eat 4 three or four days ~ the potato salad is awesome ~ the baked beans were okay and the price was decent $27 ~ I will be back there for more food later on this year for my BBQ fix ~ oh and the spicy BBQ sauce is really really good it’s not actually that spicy though but it’s very good not hot enough to burn your tongue or make your nose run

Take a trip down to Southern Texas without leaving the LBC (City of Long Beach). Robert Earl’s BBQ is the real deal, award winning, Texas Smokehouse Barbecue. They recently expanded, so they now have a larger dining area and kitchen. The decor will instantly transport you to a backwoods, country BarBQ joint. The ribs and rib tips are ‘fall-off-the-bone’ tender. All of their meats are loaded with that wood smoked flavor, that is only enhanced by their delicious barbecue sauce. The sides are very suitable compliments to any meat choice. And with their Daily Specials, you won’t to mortgage the house to satisfy your barbecue cravings. So do yourself a favor and take a trip to Southern Texas.

Some of the best tasting BBQ menu is simple, and the price for the amount of food is appropriate. I recommend the ribs and their BBQ beans. All their meats and sides are very flavourful!
