"Even though Boneyard Bistro sounds like a place where you might eat after riding Big Thunder Mountain, this spot on Ventura is one of the most consistent BBQ places in the Valley. It’s also one of the only places in town where the meats are cooked Santa Maria-style, meaning it’s dry-rubbed and grilled over red oak wood. You can’t really go wrong with any cut of meat, but we usually order the baby back ribs plus some fried mac and cheese on the side. If you’re looking for something non-BBQ, they have a solid bistro menu of salads, seafood, and vegan options too. There are also 42 beer taps, so if you’re looking to do some late-night or lunchtime drinking, this is a great place to do it." - brant cox
