I’m not the most critical person when it comes to American BBQ, only because I didn’t grow up eating it often. So when it comes to the sauce, I never really know what I’m looking for. But my family came here for my dad’s birthday and it was great!
LOCATION – located in a business center, there’s the restaurant, and there are their corporate offices. You’ll easily be able to spot out the restaurant part. They do have an open patio that does allow dogs. I was a little worried because it looked like it was part of the indoor portion, but I checked with the staff first and was able to bring in our pup. Parking in plentiful, so no worries there.
SERVICE – Really friendly and helpful people! Each single person. You order at the counter then they bring you your food to the table. We’re a party of 6 so wanted to figure out how to get what we all wanted without an abundance of food, so the lady at the counter helped us so politely. Didn’t make us feel bad at all for not really being 100% ready when we approached the counter. The guy who delivered our food was quirky and super nice!
AMBIANCE – Very casual feel. I feel as if when it gets busy, there is a wait, but we did an early dinner so we were good and there was a table for us 6, no problem.
FOOD – Everything was pretty good! Again, I’m no BBQ-snob. But we all really liked their BBQ sauce because it wasn’t too vinegar-y and didn’t punch you in the face. It was so good my dad ended up buying a bottle! Their mac n cheese was my favorite side dish and their brisket was delicious! The only thing I noticed was their baby back ribs and spare ribs wasn’t as tender, so you do have to work for it. But other than that, great!
PRICE – Price point for this place was actually pretty decent. No complaints, especially in this economy.

Melt in your mouth brisket…. Best baby backs I’ve ever eaten .. The only thing they got wrong was the salad… But who in their right mind orders salad at a bar b q joint … They very kindly gave me a refund on the salad so I could come back and enjoy the meat… Great customer service… Thank you!!

Our first time here. I was craving for meat so, my husband and I decided to check this place out. We ordered the mix platter consist with 2 different kinds of ribs and brisket, comes with BBQ beans, coleslaw and Texas toast. My husband thought cornbread probably better than toast. Meat could use a little bit of salt for my liking. But overall it’s good and we will be coming back to taste the rest of their foods.

I got a few things things there that were okay. One of the items that I got that I wasn’t too fond of was the BBQ pork pile which had a strange texture and the BBQ sauce didn’t taste that great with it. I also got the smoked BBQ plate because it came with BBQ pulled pork. The Pulled Pork dish comes with some bread but the bread tasted heavy or too meaty which is not my preference.
The next time I went to the restaurant and I ordered the BBQ ribs which were okay but the dish didn’t have enough meat on them and the BBQ sauce was still okay. One time I was there recently I got their chicken wings with BBQ sauce flavor and now I’ve been figuring the BBQ sauce is not to my liking. Anyway the customer service is amazing as always I just wish the food was as good as the customer service. Again I don’t mean to be harsh I am just being honest on these type of reviews.

I’ve known Gene for about a year now through the Pickleball Club. He’s mentioned his barbecue spot a few times, and I’ve been meaning to go forever. Lately, it’s been coming up in conversation, and I finally thought, “You know what? Let’s do it. I’m ready for some barbecue.”
And wow, I’m so glad I did.
Now, I’ll be honest, I’m friends with Gene, so this could sound biased, but this was hands down the best barbecue I’ve had in Orange County. I wouldn’t call myself a barbecue connoisseur, but I’ve eaten my fair share in Texas multiple times at some incredible spots, and Blake’s Place took me right back.
The place was buzzing at lunchtime, packed with happy people, amazing smells in the air, and a super friendly staff. Gene came out with an absolute feast: pork ribs, baby back ribs, smoked and sweet chicken wings, brisket (both lean and fatty), pulled pork, smoked turkey, and sausage. It was the works. Blake came out to say hi and make sure our meal was a 10/10, he even came back with some special sauce and a few select bites that he wanted us to try. Made us feel very special!
Everything was delicious, and the standout for me was the fatty brisket, melt-in-your-mouth good. Their house barbecue sauce was on point too, perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and surprisingly low in sugar, which I really appreciated.
And I have to mention this, the coleslaw was incredible. I’m picky about coleslaw, and this one hit the mark: lightly dressed, still crunchy, and the perfect refreshing bite between all the rich, smoky meat. The baked beans were great too.
What really stood out was the vibe, genuine people doing real barbecue right. I felt the passion in the food and the atmosphere.
To top it off, I learned that Blake’s Place, named after Gene’s son Blake, also does a ton of catering for big events, parties, and even holiday meals. I think we’ll be ordering from them for Thanksgiving this year.
If you haven’t been yet, put Blake’s Place on your BBQ list. And if you have, you already know what I’m talking about.

I was bummed when I left texas for good, never thought I’d ever find good brisket in California and yet, Blake’s Place was here all along. The best barbeque Ive had in California by far. Total hole in the wall location but the service and food is amazing. Cannot recommend this place enough. Their spicy barbecue isn’t horribly spicy, instead, it’s super savory. Cannot wait to come back again and again! 🙂 Thanks for the perfect date night!

This brisket and turkey dish was one of the best I’ve ever had. The prices were reasonable. The atmosphere was fantastic, with plenty of space and seating. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and parking was easy to find.

First time here and WOW! I was impressed! The chicken tortilla soup was delicious, the best I’ve ever had in a restaurant by far. And the brisket? Home run! Coming from Texas, I’m a bit spoiled when it comes to brisket and it takes a lot to impress me but Blakes was incredible!
Mr. Blake himself stopped by to see how my meal was. The service, atmosphere, food, everything was top notch. I can’t wait to come back!
