El Monte BBQ

The Angus brisket is incredible, the best I've ever had in my life! I never thought brisket could be so moist and juicy and flavorful. The price was reasonable and service was great. Just be aware the website menu is different from the in person menu. We order regular brisket over the phone since that was the only option on the website menu. When we arrived to pick it up we saw the Angus marbled moist brisket on the menu on the wall and the employee was nice enough to let us switch to the Angus marbled brisket since we were having FOMO. And the creamed corn was the best also...very creamy and corn so big and sweet. I can't wait to go back!

Small little spot and initially kind of skeptical about trying but was hungry and was told by the neighbor that their food was really good. Got the one meat plate with rice and bean combo with creamed corn. You have your option of home made bread or tortillas. I picked tortillas. I was curious about the creamed corn so I tried it first and it was very very good. Then off to the rice and beans which had a little meat in it was phenomenal. The brisket was very tasty as well. My uncle who owned a restaurant always said when you have good BBQ you don't need sauce with it. This BBQ was a perfect example of that. The food overall was very good and honestly the sauce takes away from the great flavors of the sides. Only draw back I have was the tortillas were kind of hard. They weren't burnt but just hard. And honestly didn't need them because the food was good. Will definitely go back.

Intimate small space yummy food will definitely do it again
