Maple Block Meat Co.

First things first - the food at The Maple Block is unbeatable. It's hard to find authentic barbeque in Los Angeles and this definitely scratches the itch. The beer selection is vast and the prices are reasonable. But what really makes The Maple Block is the employees, the community, and the atmosphere. Hugo, the general manager, is so kind and genuine. His customer service is outstanding. Come here, grab yourself a plate and a cold beer, sit on the patio and look out at Angels Flight - you won't regret it.

Great place for lunch! I took my wife and met some old friends I used to work with at KNBC-TV was great. Ample portions. We ordered Brisket Sandwiches with beans and potato salad . One friend ordered the /2 pound Tri Tip. I ordered a side of corn bread. All was cooked to perfection and a great taste.

Cute and cozy patio seating. Our server was so great. She was helpful with menu suggestions and went the extra mile to accommodate our requests. Skillet cornbread was AMAZING. The charred poblanos and honey butter, ugh. So good. We ordered pork ribs, lean brisket and pulled pork, and sausage. The ribs were my favorite. Also ordered the Burnt Ends Old Fashioned and it was very good. I would love to go back to try the rest of their Old Fashioned menu!

Came here randomly and am SO happy I tried it. The space is bigger than it appeared from the outside and the smells were appetizing as we walked in! There is a nice sized outdoor space and small parking lot if you’d rather relax outdoors - it has a pleasant ambiance with a covered patio and some more tables and benches covered by umbrellas over turf. Food: I ordered the bbq breakfast burrito with smoked brisket, scrambled eggs, white cheddar, avocado, tater tots, pico de gallo and chipotle aioli which came with a side of green salsa. All of it was delicious - more than enough of a portion for one person (two people can safely share this especially if you get a side of esquites). The esquites were delicious, served in a cup as a starter and great to share as well. I had no complaints about my burrito- the portion was good for the price, the ingredients were fresh and the burrito was prepared very well. I poured salsa and bbq sauce from the table over it with every bite but honestly didn’t need to - it tasted great on its own. Service: Really good service, we were frequently attended to and had our orders taken and food delivered pretty reasonably quickly! Appreciate the nice server who saw me running from a bee at the table and kindly collected it and let it free elsewhere. Overall a great experience. I’m excited to come back and try more of the items.

The waiter and manager was super nice and very kind. All smiles & the food was great!.... especially the pork ribs. They just fell apart in your mouth when you took a bite. Only disappointment is the barbecue sauce. Too runny and it didn't have a deep taste. Other than that, we had a great experience.

James and I are from Arkansas and love in Texas. We take BBQ seriously. LOL If you are not from the area, drive to the back to park. There doesn't look to be enough parking for the amount of customers the can handle. The brisket nachos were good. The ribs and chicken were well under seasoned. The pork tacos were a little dry. The brisket tacos were good. The chocolate chip cookies are not worth getting. They have a bland taste and hard as a rock. We did ask for milk to try and help, but it didn't work. Most of our big cookie was uneaten. The atmosphere gives a good vibe. The woman handling or order was super kind. We were able to have some good conversations with her.

First time here! LOVED IT! The restaurant is very good! The BBQ was awesome. Service is outstanding.
