Food and service is definitely 10/10 would recommend. We also got a jar of BBQ sauce to take home and it was the best on literally everything. We can't wait to get more in the near future to have on deck for any meal. If you haven't checked them out yet - this is your sign!

I only get to see them once a year when the Thomas the Train event happens in NovemberBut I think these guys nailed it with their BBQ. The ribs have that snappy texture when you bite into it. Its so nice, it's something I look forward to when I go to that event. Hope to see them next year.Oh yeah. And the sauce was outstanding as well. I liked the one here way more than some of the well known BBQ places in San Diego.

The best grilled chicken of my life. I ordered a while chicken, and it didn't disappoint. I could have eaten the whole thing by myself. My party loved it. Truly gourmet.

PTrains bbq is the best bbq you can find in California! The flavors in the meat seem magical! Sides are great! Also they are very professional and have great service! I highly recommend the beef ribs and smoked Mac and cheese. If you haven't had PTrains BBQ, you're missing out!

Best BBQ in the area by far and hands down the best mac and cheese I've ever had. This will be a regular spot for sure!

Ptrains BBQ was the best catering decision I made for my event! Caira's customer service is superior. She was great at communicating up until and the day of my event. All of my guests were impressed and gave outstanding reviews of the food. I ordered the trip tip, ribs, chicken, macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes and bbq beans and everything was so delicious. My guests are still raving about the bbq and there was plenty of food for all. I will definitely book Ptrains BBQ again.

We recently held our annual law enforcement appreciation ceremony at March Air Field Museum and PTrain was our caterer. Not only were they on time, brought their own signage for their food, but they were pleasant, prepared, respectful and friendly. Our 500+ guests were able to enjoy an evening with the best smoked brisket and bbq chicken. (appetizers included salad, corn muffins, macaroni salad, potato salad, bbq beans) Guests were gushing over the amount of food and how delicious everything tasted. They also provided appetizers and deserts and two beverage stations that included water, ice tea, lemonade and coffee. The peach and berry cobbler was outstanding. I can't recommend them enough.

I'm having Ptrains withdrawals! We had it for our backyard marriage celebration and it was PERFECT! Service was excellent and set everything up nicely while letting us know tips on hosting and where everything was. We had SO many compliments on the food. We have not experienced mac and cheese like this- a must have!

Good morning all, I would like to give a HUGe shout to PTrains and the whole crew. Recently they catered our event from lunch through dinner for a couple hundred people each day. The food was amazing, especially the sausage links. They cooked ribs, brisket, chicken and wings along with very tasty sides to go with it. Before our event was even over we hired them for next year's event.
