Old Crow Smokehouse Huntington Beach

Great place for barbecue in Huntington Beach!The restaurant has beautiful beach views from their patio, with a number of TVs inside for watching sports.The pulled pork was very good for California standards - we enjoyed the pulled pork poutine and pulled pork sliders.Service was always attentive. Definitely worth a try if you're in the mood for barbecue in OC.

Parking is validated but only 2hrs on Friday/Sat. which is silly since if you have a long wait, you will have to pay. Not a huge fan. It was empty for a Friday night but we sat at a high top. I wasn't that hungry so I ordered a side of veggies $6 and saw on the menu you could add side of meat for $6 but our server told me if i wanted sliced it would be $9. I was charged $9 but it was not sliced as you can see from the picture. Then she's like you wanted it shredded, and I'm like whatever at this point. I did not appreciate that. Brisket was good but on the fattier side. And the side of veggies was quite small. It was ok. But for the price, I would go elsewhere. I couldn't get our waitress attention since I needed more water. I just helped myself since they had water on the side bars. We would like to try the music so will be back for that.

I don't understand the appeal, or how this even has above 3 stars. Much to my surprise it had been open for several years now. Service is slow and inattentive, despite not being busy. Our table went without greeting for several minutes. The hostess apparently noticed this and brought silverware and waters over. Finally our server arrived and we were ready to order. I got the brisket Mac n cheese sandwich. My brothers got the burnt ends and brisket plates from the pit. The meat was dry and required drenching in bbq sauce to get it down. The Mac n cheese was good, but spilled out of the soft hoagie with each bite. There wasn't much meat in the sandwhich, so I paid close to $20 for Mac n cheese and bread. I had some of the others plates. The cornbread was good, but the burnt ends were again dry. My water went empty twice as I required a sip with each bite, picture Clark Griswold's Christmas Vacation. I received only 1 refill. Overall it was overpriced for what you get, and the bbq wasn't that great.Well that's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

Mediocre at best. Ribs were overcooked. Brisket was dry. Tri tip was good.Key lime pie tasted like cheesecake. Pricy for what you get. Service was good. Ambiance was a bit loud. Beautiful view of the ocean and sunset

Love the BBQ here! Get your own ribs! You will thank me later. Great place on the weekends for live music.

Service is usually a miss here even sitting at the bar. So many places are short staffed but these servers sometimes just don't even engage or pay attention. The burnt ends are not worth it. Being from Texas these are super dry and they give you sauce for them. That was questionable but still ordered them to try them. The brisket is alright. They have some good cocktails and depending on bartender can be super strong.

Beautiful ambience near ocean front! Kiana was extremely pleasant! WE ordered the old fashioned which was amazing and the blackberry cocktail. The strawberry beet salad with side of flame grill salmon was just wow! (Do order that!) the cornbread was equally amazing! Do visit here!

Save the calories and money and go somewhere else. The barbecue was incredibly bad, ribs were dry, burnt ends were dry, sides were poorly made, appetizers sucked. Service was typical for a place like this but I didn't appreciate the 20% autograt which wasn't listed anywhere on the menu. Definitely didn't get service that matched that.Ambiance is what you expect, not bad they have live music which is nice. For a beer this place is fine, just don't eat.

Dion was the absolute best! Such great service and showing us around! Will definitely be back

When the food finally arrived, it was disappointing--subpar and soggy, definitely not worth the wait. The one positive was our server, Adrianna, who was friendly and attentive despite the overall experience. Unfortunately, I wouldn't rush back.
