Chris' & Pitt's

I ordered baby back ribs, spare ribs, beef ribs, and my wife's favorite, "Hawaiian chicken". Everything was delicious and worth the long drive to get here. I just wish that the ribs were served hot at least warmer. I really liked dipping my fries in the baked beans and my wife absolutely loved the Hawaiian chicken. It was notable that the food at this location is much better than the Downey location. I just wish the Downey restaurant would improve its quality of food and service.

Come here with low expectations. The reviews posted below seem exaggerated or probably fake. I've been coming to different Chris and pitts for 40 years and something changed or went downhill. Food: beef ribs extra fatty and drenched in salty sauce. The sides seemed old and cafeteria like....Service: Rude and depressing staff. No smiles or cheer from anyone. Ambiance: dirty dirtier and dirtiest place around. You feel slimy when you leave. Don't even try to park here it's awful and just dangerous. Well, let me tell you that they have the coldest damn beer around so I gave them two stars for that. Probably would never return other than just for a beer.

My wife and I ordered takeout from Chris and Pitts tonight through Grub Hub. 1/2 barbecue chicken dinner with barbecue sauce, baked potato sour cream chives on baked potato and salad with blue cheese dressing. It also comes with garlic bread . I ordered the same meal 2 years ago at their take out window. Grub Hub delivered it timely and perfectly. It was packaged exactly the same way it was 50 years ago when I had it with my mother and father it in Culver City . Now that I found it on Grub Hub we will order it mor frequently.

Used to go to the one in Whittier on Washington before it closed down, which was next to perfect. This one was decent, but the one thing that was a bummer? One of the halves of my baby backs had the silver skin or the membrane still attached on on the underside. I love Chris and Pitts as much as the next person but please just do a little better. Easy fix.

I came for lunch. There is a special menu I had a pulled pork sandwich and fries . Fries were hot and crispy. The sandwich was loaded with meat in a tasty barbecue sauce. Service very attentive.

Let's not forget why Chris & Pitt's has been around for so long.....food consistency remain on point. The chicken n rice soup even on a hot day is satisfying. Ample portions at reasonable prices... you can't go wrong. Parking is a bit challenging and the interior is showing it's age a bit but the food makes up for it.

5 stars solely on the homemade ranch dressing and mash potatoes with gravy !!!! Whatever you get make sure to at least get one of these!

My father always told me if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything. But I'd subscribe to that saying. As a kid we always liked going to Chris and Pitts because they had such great food. I had been to this location once before and that's why we decided to drive more than 40 miles to come and eat here tonight. Unfortunately, we were sadly disappointed. We ordered the rib combo which came with two small salads and we ordered a baked potato along with the four baby back ribs two spare ribs and two beef ribs. The baby back ribs were anything but baby, they were huge, which means they were Going to be tough, which they were. The spare ribs as well were extremely large and equally as tough and dry as well. The beef ribs were OK, the potato was good, and the salad was very good however, the old saying that you can't go home again definitely applies here. We likely won't make the 40+ mile trip ever again.

Chris n Pitt's is a local institution. Ive been a customer since the early 1970's. First the Downey location then Bellflower.The food and service was always consistent. Better tasting food in the early days.This visit to the Bellflower location had me ordering bbq beef ribs (5 bones) with beans, steak fries, and a dinner salad with Italian dressing.I was reminded of why I don't order the bbq beef ribs here.They're not bad. They're just not really pleasant. Think of it this way. If you've never had bbq beef ribs before, you'll like these.They're flavorful but toothy and a bit dry. By the time you get through one of them, you literally have meat crammed in between every one of your teeth. Its painful. It's not good. The meat should be tender juicy and pretty much, fall off the bone. At least that's how I make them at home.The 1/2 grilled sandwich roll on the plate is more a garnish than anything. It doesn't really add to the experience.The beans are good. The fries seemed like the end of the batch. Dark, crispy little pieces with a few larger ones here and there.The salads are always pleasantly refreshing. Dressings tasty as ever.This rib experience reminded me of my last visit to this location I ordered a porterhouse steak medium rare. It was dry and full of gristle. It was not a pleasant experience.It's sad (very sad) to say that when I get close to this location, I usually end up at the Golden Corral next door.*Each visit here the service was great although when sitting in the front area, the servers are quite chatty with each other and it can be a bit much hearing about work drama and their personal lives.

I had lunch w a friend one chinken breast plate and one plate w 5 ribs and a coke once i left a small tip its was 70.00 sorry i will never eat there again
