Chris & Pitts BBQ Restaurant

It’s been about 25 years since I’ve been to Chris & Pitts. I didn’t realize there were any around still and came across the Bellflower location. I wasn’t sure if it would be as good as I remembered but I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was large and can accommodate a lot of guests plus there was ample parking in the front and back. I had the $16.95 steak special with mashed potatoes and gravy and upgraded the second side to a bowl of chili for $2.45. The chili was delicious and quite filling. The steak was on the smaller side but you can’t really complain for such a good price point plus it was the perfect amount of food once you include the mashed potatoes and large piece of garlic toast which was just as good as I had remembered! My husband had the steak and beef ribs and thought it was delicious. All in all, you can’t beat the price and the food still tastes homemade. No frills, just good old fashioned home cooking.

We got here and were kindly and quickly seated by the staff. Then we met our waiter, Monse, and she was on point throughout our entire visit. We didn't want or need anything; she took the best care of us and helped us make some decisions from the menu. When the food arrived, it made its own statement of greatness. The plating and everything that hit the table was top-notch—some of the best BBQ and overall food I have had in a very long time. The portions were healthy and satisfying, and all the stuff is made from scratch. During this visit, we had a combination of different foods: breaded pork chops with homemade gravy, pulled pork sandwiches, steak, and an assortment of different sides. It was all pretty magical, even down to the dessert. Long story short, if you are into BBQ and home cooking that has withstood the test of time, I highly recommend checking this place out. You will not be disappointed.

I'm glad I went, but I don't see myself going a second time. The sides were great. We had the blooming onion, onion rings, mashed potatoes, and French fries. All of the sides were flavorful, and the crispy items were very crispy. The BBQ rib wasn't as tender as I had hoped, and I didn't really like the texture or flavor of the meatloaf. I did, however, really enjoy the beef barley soup. The wait staff wasn't rude, but I also didn't get super friendly vibes. Overall, I am actually glad I went, but I won't be going back.

I've been going here all my life. Simple delicious food that is classic and has not changed and they have the best blue cheese dressing the best bread dipped in Au Jus. I love the barbecue and I love prime rib. You have to come and try it if you've never been, it's not fancy it's just good food

C&P are old school dining. You come here knowing what you get is good quality delicious food. Staff is super nice and the decor is a trip back in time. My husband sat under the picture of Ronald Reagan. The prices are fair, the bathroom is CLEAN and you will not be hungry once you leave, you WILL be dreaming about the next time you walk in, I can assure you!

Haven't been there in years but I'm definitely going back for more, best tasting BBQ Ribs, very satisfied customer's.

I used to frequent Chris & Pitts growing up. While I haven't been to the restaurant in over 20 years, my recent visit was nothing short of an extraordinarily excellent walk down memory lane! Every food item from the crispy battered onion rings, to the one-of-a-kind blue cheese dressing was just as I remembered. The pepper steak option transported me back to a simpler time. If you love great barbecue and steak, you MUST stop in here. Bay Far is one of my all time favorite restaurants.

The place is a bit outdated, but the food is tasty. I always get the smothered breaded porkchops.
