"There’s something comforting about shopping center barbecue, especially in Sacramento, which is where some of the best comfort food can be found across different cuisines. Bear West, which shares space with an electronic store and a halal shop on Watt Avenue in North Highlands, has some of the most reliable barbecue in town; their classic menu keep things simple with three- and four-way meals with a selection of sides (the macaroni and cheese is non-negotiable, as are the candied yams cut daily by hand), as well as rib platters and link sandwiches. Their popularity and dedication to the low, slow art of barbecue means they rarely end a day with inventory, so it really is imperative to seize the moment where Bear West is concerned." - Tamerra Griffin
