One of the best BBQ joints in LA

by bkbigfish at Citysearch

This is seriously one of the best BBQ spots in all of LA. Can't say much for the sides, but that's okay, the ribs, brisket and links more than make up for it. The employees here look like they were transplanted from Texas...I guess that's a good sign. :)

• Pros: Good portions, great tasting BBQ sauce
• Cons: Sides

Texas sized portions and taste

by brightlighter at Citysearch

As soon as we arrived, we were made to feel like we were at home. The waitress was friendly and funny and she gave us the lowdown on the food. I read in other reviews that the portions were generous- but that is an understatement! When the plates arrived, they were stacked high with succulent chicken, ribs and brisket. The BBQ sauces were delicious and spicy, and the baked beans were the best I've had.

Sure it wasn't cheap, but it was 3 meals worth on 1 plate.

Highly recommended!

• Pros: friendly service, huge portions, great food
• Cons: uh.... lack of ambience I guess?

Mmmoooooooooooo!

Either you GET the "Doctors" or you DON'T. If you DO, you'll have a fabulous time here. Great food, love the waitstaff, the sauce and the outside bathrooms. If you DON'T, you'll write some of the hateful reviews you'll read here. Just because some drooling imbecile doesn't get it doesn't change how a great a place it is. So by all means GO - if you love reasonably Texas-style "Q", keep an open mind about the decor, which is not what you go for, and bring a dime (or ask your waitress for a token) so you can wash up afterward. And do come hungry, or plan to take leftovers. Oh - for those of you who don't get it, you'll LOVE Mr. Cecils - that's YOUR kind of place.

• Pros: The Gaahhhhlick!!!
• Cons: Sadly, I've acclimated to the hot bbq sauce so it doesn't hurt as much anymore...

Best BBQ in the Valley

by jeffusc1 at Citysearch

I have tried nearly every BBQ place in the valley and Dr. Hogly Wogly's is about the best. The food never disappoints. I always get the brisket which is tender and juicy, but has also heard that the hot links, the ham and the pork are also excellent. The BBQ beans are outstanding and some of the most interesting I have ever tasted. They're just like candy. All of the other sides are quite good as well. The service is prompt and friendly. The same group of waitresses has been there forever, and they know the menu inside and out. They make you feel right at home. The restaurant itself has no ambiance or charm whatsoever, but it is clean and well maintained.

• Pros: Great food, good service, fair prices
• Cons: Very limited parking, no ambiance

Best bbq in town, great service.

by z_phantm at Citysearch

Best bar-b-que in town, sauce is delicious and the meat and nice and juicy. For a first time customer, I recommend getting the 3 way combo, you can get beef brisket, sausage link, and pork ribs. The beef brisket is to die for. Entrees come with bread and sides. DO NOT ORDER any salad from here, they don't serve it and save yourself the humiliation of being laughed at for ordering salad in a bbq place. Service is great, all the waitresses are very helpful and friendly. Price is reasonable.

• Pros: Great bbq, great service
• Cons: a little too cozy

Best Ribs in California

by japeterson007 at Citysearch

That is all I can say, this place has the Best Ribs in California. Stop reading and just go eat there. The drive to the valley is worth it, even in Summer.

• Pros: Ribs
• Cons: nothing else matters

Just like Texas!

by toni0toni0 at Citysearch

My husband and I "commute" to Texas for work every so often, and we've tried some GOOOOD BBQ. I'd venture to say that Dr Hogley's is on par with some of the best we've had down there. It has a real down home feel too!

• Pros: YUMMMM
• Cons: sorta far from where we live, but worth the drive!

very good beef, ribs etc. Get their sauce b4 you leave.

by rmabrea at Citysearch

I got their beef biscuit and my friend go their ribs.

The nice thing about this place is its not a upscale claim jumper type restaurant. Hoggly Woggley is much more authentic then that. The reason being is that they are old school, they follow traditions and they have time tested recipes that modern places don't have.

• Pros: Good food great service very good
• Cons: none
