Tender brisket, juicy pork, craft beers, and a speakeasy
"Tender brisket and juicy pork ribs are delivered on a silver tray at Heritage — an excellent meal that pairs seamlessly with a small-batch beer crafted in house. The Oceanside outpost excels in award-winning barbecue: Popular meats include the smoked turkey and the brisket. For a more filling meal, order a combination plate with either two or three meats and accompanying sides like charro beans, slaw, and smoked brisket-braised chili. All pair well with the plentiful beers on tap." - Jackie Bryant
"Slinging a selection of traditional barbecue dishes that evoke the platters served at the award-winning original Heritage Barbecue in San Juan Capistrano, Heritage’s Oceanside outpost offers an element of surprise: a secret cocktail speakeasy. Try its acclaimed brisket, pulled pork, and sandwiches — the Famous Smoked Burger with a half-pound smoked prime beef brisket patty, American cheese, and a special house sauce is a best seller. On Wednesdays, trivia night runs from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and on taco Tuesday $5 draft Mexican lagers and brisket quesadillas with shredded cheese and a cilantro lime crema are on offer." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Heritage, like other BBQ spots, proves that brisket is the chameleon of smoked meats: great stuffed into a sandwich with pickles, piled on top of texas chili fries, or bursting out of tacos loaded with queso fresco. This is one of the places where sides like the potato salad and macaroni and cheese are also entree-sized (just a bit smaller than some of the tiny dogs you might see on the patio). Located off of Oceanside’s main stretch of South Coast Highway, their roomy booths and ample tables make this a solid spot for a company Happy Hour, and fewer things build trust than seeing your coworker’s face slathered in BBQ sauce." - ligaya malones

"A craft beer and barbecue spot in Oceanside, part of the growing empire of Daniel and Brenda Castillo." - Matthew Kang
