Dine-In, Take Out – Redefining comfort, at our place or yours.

Walk in to the Brazen BBQ Smokehouse & Bar and your senses will be awakened by the aroma of San Diego’s best BBQ. Our ample selection of meats that are slow-cooked and hardwood smoked, and our inviting sides, will be sure to please every time. Whether you decide to eat in the restaurant or call ahead and take your food home, the results are the same delicious barbecue, delectable sides & creative alternatives. Peruse through our Menu and you’ll find countless options ranging from Salads and Sandwiches to Dinner plates and BBQ Combo platters. And don’t forget the one-of-a-kind Brazen Starters to kick off your meal just right. 

The Brazen BBQ culinary team is working to bring San Diego diners a fresh new approach to the barbecue experience by combining traditional barbecue and classic southern foods with a host of unique and inspired offerings. Here you’ll find unexpected delicacies on every page of the menu, from Brisket Stroganoff (a Pit Boss favorite) to Atomic Buffalo Poppers (for the truly adventurous). And those are only a few of the innovative dishes and tastes you’ll experience.  

 
All our meats are smoked to perfection and always tender, juicy, and delicious. You can choose from pork spare ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken, hot links, and more. It’s all the result of homemade rubs, real hardwood smoke, our low-and-slow cooking method, succulent housemade barbecue sauces, and inspired finishing techniques. Our unwavering dedication to true barbecue techniques and flavors is unparalleled and we’re confident you’ll taste the difference.

Our warm and comfortable dining atmosphere is casual and fun, just the way we like it. Families are always welcome yet there’s a full service saloon for grownups to enjoy. Saloon offerings include a selection of craft & regional beers and wine, mixed drinks, or unique specialty libations—it’s your call and yours to enjoy.


We will be open every day of the week for lunch and dinner and late enough on weekends for a late night snack or cocktail or two. Bring the family for dinner, meet co-workers for lunch, or pull up a stool at our bar. Our servings are generous and sure to please.
