Reviews of Blake's Place (Restaurant)

Anson Shaffer

Fantastic ambience and super personal service. The menu was fresh and yummy. Will surely recommend this restaurant to my friends. Convenient prices and generous meals. Great job.

Judy Alexander

Being a carnivore I usually avoid places with foreign words like , non-gmo , organic and vegan options. On a whim a coworker and I decided to stop by and give it a try. Salads are insanely large with plenty of protein. Sandwiches are spot on. Soups are hit or miss. Overall great place for lunch but not the most wallet friendly for the food. Kinda pricey.

Andres Covarrubias

Great BBQ wings... will come back for more

Matt Beard

Excellent food!

Celeste

Excellent BBQ. Better than lots of larger more expensive sit down type restaurants. If you're in the Anaheim area try it out I'm pretty sure you will love them also. Pulled pork is excellent their baked beans or barbecued beans are excellent along with their brisket. Their sides like coleslaw and potato salad are very good also. And don't rule out their beef salad.

Oscar Medina

For my first time going their and having The Beast it was pretty good! The staff was friendly the service was really quick and the food was really good! Great experience all around!

Greg Romo

Great BBQ, friendly staff, minimal wait time, and fairly priced!

steven smith

Cashier was so nice and personable. Food was good to.

Joe Neuburger

This is my post Disneyland go to place! Great BBQ and you get a lot for your money! It's located in a business park, but don't let that stop you! Great place with great food!

Ryan Cramer

The Brisket was a bit rubbery and the macaroni and cheese was horrible. The worst I’ve had in my life. Like seriously boxed macaroni is way better. I don’t know how they can shamelessly serve this garbage.

David

Blake’s Place is great BBQ. It’s in a industrial business location, but don’t be fooled. This place is legit! Bring your friends and they will not be disappointed and you can get all the credit for finding this gem.

Fred Spivey

Fantastic BBQ.

Luis Haro

Great food great price

Alfred Rios

Blake's has excellent B.B.Q. And another thing that is very good are there salads. Plenty of chicken. The southwest salad is amazing nothing like it nowhere !

Yolanda Alarcon

Nice place. Waiter was very tentative. Food is delicious. Difently returning.

Serena Rios

Great salads!! Where else can you get fresh BBQ meat on your salad for 10 dollars? NOWHERE!

Matt M

Delicious food but poor service.

J C

Really good BBQ. Food is on time and delicious.

Edgar Reyes

Food is delicious, service is exceptional.

Ed Alvarez

Place was great, had our lunch ready within 10 minutes. The burgers and fries combo was tasty. Will I be back?

Michelle Gaddy

Best barbecue ever family-owned so you always get really good service way better than the Lucille's

Garret Lake

I've eaten here a few times now and you can't go wrong no matter what you order. Everything is delicious! Believe it or not but the Blake's signature salad with chopped brisket is my usual choice. Went with the sandwich trio this time around and it was absolutely fantastic.

meb meb

Sometimes, their beef is full of fat and not worth the amount.

Paul Dowdle

Good BBQ at decent prices.

Brian Locke

Good barbeque, nice dining room, helpful staff. I don't recommend the pastrami sandwich though.

angel gutierrez

This place is a hidden gem. Good bbq

Tyson Reyes

Great food and very friendly staff. When we got there they pointed out some recommendations and answered any questions we had on size and portions of the plates. Prices were decent and their bbq sauce is delicious (especially the spicy one). We went rather late but there were still quite a few customers enjoying their food. Location is off the beaten path (in an industrial area) but it is worth it.

John Trenary

Very good food, quick service... I'm glad they are tucked away in an industrial area otherwise it would be too packed!

Kurt Manglos

great food and outside remodeled

Beth Kaura

Consistently great BBQ. And you can smell it from the road as you near the restaurant. That's appetizer enough!

Nick Haberlein

Really great BBQ place for far cheaper than you'd expect. You'll never leave hungry. I recommend the brisket.

Andrew Chavez

Lisa is the coolest manager at Blake’s. Her Blake’s fry referral was primo.

Brooke Hughes

Its a family owed place good food . fair prices . should check it out

Jason Mott

Food was pretty good, but portions were small and their carryout service seemed to lack the care you might get with sit down service. They didn't provide plates, BBQ sauces or utensils; all nice touches with carryout meals. it also seemed overpriced for what we got.

Callum Avery

Tried this spot already with my friend and I am addicted since then. I enjoyed the excellent atmosphere and delightful dishes and beverages. Keep up the good work.

Elizabeth Perreault

I love Blake's Place! Not only is it delicious but the customer service is even sweeter. Everyone is super friendly. It was the end of the day and the item I ordered could not be completed. The manager served my food and accommodated me with extra ribs to help compensate. They are wonderful over there at Blake's Place!

Molly De La Cruz

Being from Texas, have been waiting for the beef ribs to come back, and after trying them recently I cannot say enough good things about them. It’s just about time for dinner right now, and Just the thought of them has my mouth watering again! I moved to Orange for a lot of reasons - but being close to Blake’s is at the top of the list for sure.

mabel elder

Obsessed, its so delicious, great staff, nice place

Lynne Sweeton

Super yummy BBQ wings

Kevin Chang

This place is a hidden gem. I stumbled upon this place on accident and decided to give it a try. Food was good and customer service was very friendly.

Colby Wakeman

This place is AMAZING! Great service great food! If you are in the mood for BBQ come here!!!!

ROSEANN N JESSE CERVANTES

Always a Great Experience at Blake's. Customer Service is Awesome. T.V.'S to watch your Favorite games.

Oscar Flores

Place is clean, the food is good, friendly people but I wish it would be a little more spacious to walk between tables and I m not a heavy person.

Lenee Dalton

I have the chef salad. It was amazing. Piled high with fresh crisp lettuce and tomatoes. Shredded cheese and don't forget the wonderful smoked meat. Ham , turkey and bacon. There ranch dressing is to die for. Love going to Blake's

Louisvilleslugz!

Delicious!!!! Get the "Lil Beast" you won't be disappointed ;)

Adam Whalen

Best BBQ IN SOCAL

Elizabeth Field

Great food, friendly staff, good value

Marisol Hinojosa

Great Food, Great Staff

Kelly Leaveck

I very much enjoyed this place. I ordered the ribs, they where very descently priced and tasted great! The staff was warm and friendly. We ate outside and they had a enjoyably atmosphere. I would definitely come back for bbq. The only suggestion I could offer is to get a feer beers on tap :)

Barry Gould

Great BBQ sandwiches

Andy King

We go here pretty often. I like the chopped brisket and pulled pork. Baked beans are good. Little kid likes the Mac n cheese. I wish they had hard cider.

Jennifer Nichols

I'm so full. It was good

Rachel Gebray

Not worth the price. I was better off heading to Lucille's instead. Live and learn.

Mr Aboriginal Smith

Best BBq Chicken Burrito I've ever eaten

ron bobo

Known for their great BBQ, one should not overlook the chicken wings they serve up here at Blake’s.

David Dukellis

Delicious barbecue. My boss typically gets the southwest salad or the pile. I like the sausage sandwich, but everything is good here. They're also really quick with take out orders.

Stephanie Diaz

Love the food, staff is very friendly and helpful. Atmosphere is comfortable and inviting

Melissa Thorpe

Pretty decent BBQ. Great servings.

Susana Picon

This place might fool you by all industrial businesses around it, but i can remember coming in for lunch back in 2005, Place hasn't changed a bit still serving great BBQ.

Alamauta Pasi

The food was to die for and it was my first time there.

chris m

Good food. Short line. Theybturn the orders fast. The location is really bad though. Not the kind of place you go after dark. Very unsafe neighbor hood.

chunder mcqueen

The Buffalo wings are a thing of beauty, all other wings are a pale imitation at best. They are all meat, no fat, smoked to perfection before being sauced, and served with ranch sauce so fantastic that you'll very likely ask for extra. Overall the menu items are great, but the wings are truly exceptional. I also recommend the brisket burrito.

sherry miner

Great Barbecue

John Pultorak

Great job with the help on catering the wedding I hosted at my home last week. Natasha and Blake were amazing. Delivery man very helpful!

Jessica Jess

Delicious and friendly staff

Steven Francis

The BBQ here is delicious. I love their sandwiches and baby back ribs. The fries are fantastic also.

Angel Cadena II

If there was a 6 stars option, they’d own it. Awesome food, incredible service. Been coming here for a while, everything is good.

Steve Shafer

The ribs were tough and chewy. The fries were very good and fresh.

Victor Solorio

Very nice place

Eugene Fisher

Great BBQ, tri-tip sandwiches were excellent. Fast and friendly service. Blake's Place is now on our list to visit regularly!

Carrie Jennings

Blake's Place is great. We had the BBQ chicken sandwich, very tender and juicy, BBQ sauce is delicious! The cob salad was huge with a whole half of an avacado, lots of cubed turkey and ham chunks, cheddar and provolone cheese, bacon and a whole sliced hard boiled egg and 2 slices of really good garlic toast. Highly recommend this BBQ Deli!

Carlos Gaytan

Great food. A little pricy but excellent food. Friendly staff.

David Briggs

We've been over six times, always great food and service. The smoked Turkey sandwich is simply delicious, and the piled high pork sandwich is on the same level.... Plus super close to home.

Nick Jolliff

Such a good place to eat. Hard to find as it's in an industrial strip mall, but when you do find it you won't be disappointed. Some of the best BBQ around. Try their sandwich sampler so you can try different meats and find your favorite. What is surprising was to me their turkey sandwich is excellent. I would have thought the beef would have been the best, but the turkey was so good. I've yet to have a bad thing from this place. They also want to make sure they are doing good and check on you to make sure. Definitely check this place out. I've posted the current menu so you can get prices. They are in the pricey side, but it's quality BBQ in a casual setting. Much better than chain places like Dickie's.

Keith Yates

The food was delicious. .... The sausage sandwich and the brisket sandwich were great. They were busy and still gave us fast, friendly service. We got to meet the owners son who was very friendly and had a great conversation with us. We're looking forward to coming back again soon.

lorrie stastny

Good service, pretty good ribs, will try more menu items

Dorothy Martin

Great food

Brian Berge

i ordered pulled-pork cheese fries. at first they said it would have no cheese. when i simply asked "why?", they switched it to extra beans & extra cheese. (why?) when i received it, it had no pork. (why?) the baked beans here are like ketchup soup with some beans. the pulled pork here is like ketchup soup with some pork. these "ketchup-based"(?) ingredients are way too sugary to constitute a meal.

Nishel Day

Amazing food and great staff. The baked beans were a hit and the rest of the food was sublime. Tasty succulent meat, gorgeous sausages and filling sides. Will return next time I am in the USA

Diane Segovia

Lots of good food. Good price. Delicious!

Mel Pilla

We always get one of the feast meals. Food is really good, and always some leftovers for later.

Laurance Boyles

Most excellent BBQ

Mr. VW O' Day

Great place Great food Great portions size

Bryan Dietz

Very good bbq!

Mike Caceres

Really good bbq and great staff.

will baumann

Awesome bbq for an awesome price.

Jeff Delaquil

Best BBQ in the OC

Sean Plunkett

Great food, reasonable prices and fantastic service. The new patio is really nice too. I definitely recommend checking Blake's out.

David Rivera

The people here are awesome. Great food great service what else can one say? If you’ve never had food here, you are missing out

Modesto Marines

Love it nice people great food

cherie weller

We never anticipated finding such delicious and reasonably priced food in the area. They're located in an industrial park but easily viewable from the street. If you're a BBQ lover, you're in for a treat. They offer a huge variety of food, and so far we've tried their tender, fall off the bone, ribs, pastrami, pulled pork, pork roast, homemade mac and cheese, baked beans, and their cookies. We have yet to be disappointed! They're in the mix an amazing staff that is friendly, helpful and makes you feel like family from your first visit, and you have yourself a winning location to dine at. Something to keep in mind if visiting with a larger group is that you'll easily fit on the patio, but the inside is on the smaller side with only about 12 tables that are mostly 4-tops. So plan accordingly.

Kyle Nelson

Good BBQ. I like the sandwich sampler.

Benny Kim

Just got this buffalo chicken salad today for take out and it was extremly salty. It seems like they poured the salt out of the bottle or jaw by accident. I had to dump it in to trash bin. Just wasted money!

Lawrence Phuah

Friendly and helpful staff and great food. The salad with pulled pork was delicious!

Christopher Jetton

Good service and goo food.

Linda Kirby

Got food to go. It has been a couple years since. E we have been to Blakes.Place. Food still good,, service nice

Leo Gutierrez

Quality of their food is very poor

Sofia Vanderkooy

Great food and service.

Joey Hines

Great smoked turkey and chicken and BBQ sauce tops it off perfectly. Always bring clients for lunch and never disappointed.

Bob Snyder

Had lunch here today and I will give my brisket sandwich a C+ or a B. Yes the sandwich was flavorful but that's because of the onion the pickle and the barbecue sauce. The meat lacked any real smoked brisket flavor I was not impressed. Then I got a beer and IPA at $6 a bottle that is absurd and outlandish that is simply greed. I enjoyed my stay there but I will not return.

Nathan Coulombe

Fantastic barbecue, best I've had in the area. Always greeted with a smile, and a generous plate; plus they do catering!

Jason Muriel

Typical bbq for California.wouldn't recommend if you know real bbq like Lockhart Texas bbq. Nice looking place though.

Olivia Nunez

Food is so good and the people are so nice! I definetely recommend! Great customer service!

Christopher Smith

Came for lunch and there was no wait at walk up service counter. The food was good and it was clean inside. It is tucked away in the parking lot.

Miguel Pascual

Smoke was perfect. Meat was tender. Sauce was available for supplementing and they had plenty of amenities out for your use. Staff was attentive. Wish Blake's another 20 years of successful business.

mark greening

By far one of the greatest bbq and smoked meat sandwich shop in Orange County.

Jeanette Ward

Blake's chicken sandwich with ham and cheese is the best. Garlic bread is awesome. Staff is great.

Lis Adrienne

The food at Blake's is great! Their BBQ is the best in Orange County, the portions leave you needing a take home box, and the side are delicious. Best!!

Michael Segura

Amazing bbq!! I ordered the pastrami sandwich. AMAZING!! THICK CUTS. SO JUICY!!

Jason Weller

Found this place looking for something besides Mexican food in the area. I'm so glad we discovered this place. The food is very, very delicious, and well priced. What's even better is the staff. They knew we were new there and they made sure we enjoyed ourselves. We truly look forward to returning.

Esteban Miles

This spot is my favored. I visit plenty of restaurants but to this place I constantly return again and again. The crew is very attentive and the cuisine they cook is so good. I am always happy to have a good meal in this place. I highly recommend this place.

Chris Parsons

We were driving by and saw how popular it looked so we turned around and came in for dinner. Menu all looked great, with lots of options. I settled on the sandwich trio and my wife got a salad. Sandwiches were all good, the BBQ wasn't super smoky, but it was a lot of meat for the money and good quality. My wife's salad was mediocre she said. Great atmosphere, lots of TV's and nice people, great spot.

Peter S

Service here was very fast. I got the three meat plate with turkey, brisket and chicken. While tasty the meats didn’t have very much of a smoke flavor. Coleslaw was decent but stay away from the Mac n cheese, tasted very chemically and fake. Checkin on yelp to get a free cookie. Get quite a lot of food for the price.

Doug Hall

Decent BBQ in the N. O.C

Dora Barnes

The Rib sandwich was alright. The meat was done correctly, but wasn't as fall-off-the-bone texture as I usually prefer it. The sauce was a bit heavy for my liking, even though they used it sparingly in the sandwich.

Chris Candelaria

Blake's has the best BBQ in all of Southern California that I have tried. And I have tried a lot of BBQ places! The staff is always attentive, and treats you well. If I have a craving for BBQ, I will drive an hour from where I now live just to come here. It's that good.

Megan Underwood

there are few barbeque places this good out here. their brisket is phenomenal, and get their loaded fries while they are still carrying it. they often have a salmon-topped salad, and a couple soups of the day. they cater as well. while they're a little pricey, it is absolutely worth every penny.

blue zoomer

The Food here is Really Good !! There is Always a ton of people here. But the reason for that is the Food is Always Really Good !! Everything on the menu here at Blake's is Tasty and Mouthwatering Great !! The Ribs and the Sauce for the ribs are Especially Very Delicious too. You will be happy with the service here too. The employees here are Always Attentive and very willing to help the customers out with getting you more napkins or whatever you might need while sitting at your table. Great Food. Great Service. Great Smiles. But, go to Blake's for the Great Tasting Ribs !! They are Perfect. They have their Own "Blake's BBQ Sauce" at each table too. They have been in business long enough to know Exactly how to cook their food correctly. Again, Go Here for Great Tasting Ribs !!

jim freeman

One of the best places to eat in Orange County. Great food and service.

Nathan Greenberg

Our group had mixed opinions. Definitely overpriced. Philly sandwich was almost flavorless. Mac & cheese tasted like soap. Even the server and manager said their mac & cheese is bad. Others enjoyed their meals or said it was "okay". I would choose elsewhere next time.

Sharon Woolsey

Food is excellent and they have a separate dining area. The ribs are awesome.

garrett sorensen

Great BBQ, I've been here 4-5 times and I have loved everything I've tried. Its possibly the best BBQ spot in Orange county.

Nam Bartash

Best local BBQ ever! Reasonable pricing for great food and service!

Aime Nagel

Oh man, I know I'm not a BBQ expert but I do know well made food when I try it and Blake's definitely is well made. The flavors of the different meats are amazing (my family shared pork ribs, baby back ribs, sausage, brisket, and BBQ chicken). All of them were tender, cooked to perfection. Either come with a big appetite or share plates. The coleslaw was probably the best I've ever had (which is saying something because my grandmother makes a killer coleslaw too). You can't go wrong at this place.

John Gaudot

Great food

Tim Williams

The foods good and the staff cares.

Alice Gaitan

Food was great. It was smaller than I imagined it would be but perfect to have dinner with daughter, son in law and 2 kids. The staff was super nice, attentive and made us feel very welcomed. Try it, you won't be sorry!

antisocial brilliance

Great selection of food. Tables were properly spaced and the waiters were kind and helpful.

TK

Great Brisket sliced or chopped, pulled pork, BBQ kielbasa sausage sandwich, WINGS (sweet chili my fav), garlic bread, baked beans. Friendliest staff. Even the cooks throw a smile and a wave.

Christina Friesen

Best Bar B Q I've had in Socal and the best brisket I've EVER EATEN IN MY LIFETIME. The is Anaheim....no Southern California's little gem.

Rubi Santillan

Me and my husband went on a rainy day and it was worth it. Everyone is always so polite. The food is AMAZING! spicy barbecue #1 Fan.

Jose Tanchez

I would give Blake's Place 10 stars if I could. Totally recommend this spot, been coming here for years and it taste as good or better than the first time. Super cool people work here and always attentive to customers.

Veronica Blake

Friendly staff.... Menu has something for everybody... Super tasty

Allison Nguyen

It is currently under construction but still open for business. Smaller place with limited parking but worth the delicious and friendly food service.

Elizabeth Marshall

Best bbq

angelina de ita

This was some delish bbq!

John Wesley

Very good bbq and good customer service. This is my go to spot!

Jason Rose

Friendly staff and great food. Portions are perfectly sized and priced right. Chopped brisket was great! I would certainly visit on my next trip to Anaheim. Takes about15 mins to get here from the resort area.

Terrence Bailey

Good fast service, great I mean really great BBQ, and competitive pricing I will go back there again, and again, and again.

Sharon faves Brandt

The baby back ribs are the best ever.

leon jacobs

Best clean BB-Q in the area .And Blake works the dining room. Novelty eating ( contest ). Suprising catering ability !

Elizabeth J. Davis

The Beast it was pretty good! The staff was friendly the service was really quick and the food was really good!

Eric Izquierdo

Great food and fast, friendly service at a relatively cheap price. Great variety of different foods on the menu that offer choices to those who want a quick bite or food comatose.

Anselma Torres

Loved the service! Delicious juicy ,tasty food! BBQ sauce~Amazing!!!! Definitely going back.

Eli Thelegit15

Good Service. Food is delicious and fresh. Best Brisket i have had

Robert Luce

GREAT BBQ, find this place, you won't regret it. Very good BBQ choices and very good Customer service.

Rosi2Cari

We've tried a lot of things from the menu and have never been disappointed. We've also catered 4 times and the food is always a crowd pleaser. If you cater the Mac n Cheese or scalloped potatoes side dishes, I like to doctor them up with garlic and onion powder.

Irving Schwartz

food was very good. I thought the place was little overpriced

Rick Sistoni

Bbq sauce,beans and slaw was delicious but the chicken was so dry I didn't even eat it. The 4 brisket slicees was real thin. Prices are too high for what you get.

Jacqualyn Whitlinger

Best barbecue since I left Texas

Casey Davis

Good bbq! Great ribs and brisket, lots of sandwich options. Highly recommended for lunch, pricing is moderate, and the facility is updated and clean. The patio (if you can call it that) is my preferred saeating. Highly recommend

Bob R

Blake's is the Place, to go for a nice lunch. Quick and friendly service. Great Brisket salad, loaded with plenty of brisket. Well worth the price. Thanks for a great lunch. I will definitely be back.

Lori Halligan

Was going to eat here but the special on the chalkboard said $14.00 and the cashier refused to honor the posted price. He said its now $18.00. Really? And you could not fix that on a chalk board? Well, we left. Have never eaten there and now we won't.
