Review highlights
Based on 20 reviewsGrand Ole BBQ at PETCO Park is widely appreciated for its flavorful and generously portioned BBQ offerings that resonate well with ballpark dining expectations. Reviewers consistently highlight the quality of the smoked meats, with particular praise for moist, well-seasoned options and tasty BBQ sauces that complement the dishes. The menu features fan favorites like loaded fries with pulled pork and spicy slaw, delivering satisfying and fresh flavors. While the pricing is considered elevated, guests acknowledge the premium associated with the stadium location and find the portions adequate for the cost. The casual atmosphere, especially enjoyed on the outdoor deck with scenic views, adds to the overall experience, making it a favored choice for fans seeking robust, quality BBQ food during games. Some feedback suggests minor room for improvement in sauce quantity to enhance moisture in certain items, but overall the brand maintains a strong reputation for fresh, flavorful ballpark cuisine.
food and portions where fantastic! the bbq was moist and super yummy
It's expensive, but it's in the park so everything is. The food is good though. The fries were crisp and everything was fresh. The BBQ sauce was pretty good too.
borracho fries w/ pulled pork & side of spicy slaw for the WIN!!! grab your grub and eat along the outside deck facing coronado and the bay.... yes...$20. so what...its good ballpark food. better than a nasty azz doyer dog!
El brisket bolillo, está muy bueno, aunque es un poco seco, podrían dar un poquito más de salsa para humedecerlo más más, pero de ahí en más es muy recomendable
We had the burracho fries with pulled pork. It really hit the spot at the Padres game. The BBQ was very good, great smoke flavor. Prices are definitely marked up for being in the ballpark, this was a good portion, so decent value.
I love this place. Pulled pork sandwich with bbq sauce is top tier.
