One of the best places to get Pork Ribs, A must visit in San Diego. We got the full rack pork ribs with Macaroni Salad and Coleslaw. It was goooood. The meat was soft and tender, and their bbq sauce is one of a kind. The staff was welcoming, and the manager was kind enough to give us extra coleslaw on the house! Definitely recommended, and I will visit again soon.

I only order the Beef Ribs. They are so good. I like to add a habanero hot sauce to it and it’s perfect. For the sides the potato salad and the Fries are good.

You really cannot beat Happy hour at Phil’s BBQ. Beer pints for $5, a person could get used to that! And the food, very good. Not every day, though; we have to balance our nutrition with kale smoothies and Cobb salads, but once in a while, go ahead and treat yourself!

We were turned on to Phil’s about 4 years ago I think. Every time it’s always been the same, great service, food always consistent and great! We always order the ribs, fries and coleslaw. We visit every time we come to San Diego, one of stops besides old town restaurants.

Pretty good bbq place. Busy as well. Got the beef and chicken combo, full pork rack and half chicken meal. All were well cooked and seasoned. Only complaint was they gave me only 1 3oz container of bbq sauce for 3 dinner boxes and and large side of fries.

GREAT BBQ! Had the 1/4 barbecue chicken and pulled pork…YUM, YUM, YUM! The onion rings were PERFECT! Liked the staff coming around and checking on us to make sure everything was tasty and if we needed anything further. Plenty of seating and lots of parking.

The food is alright but for 33$ for 3 beef bones its really not that even close to what it should be. The service is what really gets me as they slide the card reader to you expecting a tip when they don’t even bring the food out to you, all they litterally do is just take your order then you have to go pickup the food yourself even if its just me and 6 of my senior family members who i don’t expect to come with me, The prices go up and the quality goes down… I’d recommend buckboards in el cajon you really get some better prices meals and the quality of the food is way better! and they bring the food to you which is deserving of a tip. Never coming here again to waste 400$ on a party of 7 then they expect a 40$ tip too…. forget that and forget phills

To be honest the ribs were very expensive didn’t realize what I was ordering they were so huge. But not the less they was very tender very tasty. Moneywell spent! They get a 10 on my scale!!! An I gave a giant Appetite. But irregardless of my appetite the food must taste very good seasoned and tinder and it was all that. I will serve with the smile the people seem to be extremely polite. And I appreciate the dining Inn with my family from out of town everybody enjoyed the food no complaints. Very good dinner money well spent!!! Ther were 4 eating in our party.
