LAβs Excellent AYCE BBQ β Xita BBQ π₯©π₯
Meating BBQ (Xita BBQ) 1308 E Valley Blvd, Alhambra, CA 91801 This is a charcoal grill spot weβve visited many times. They recently updated their menu β used to have three tiers, now two.ππ The cheaper tier is $39 before tax β their beef tongue is amazing! Today, two of us ordered 6 plates of beef tongue + 1 plate of chuck eye.ππ Weβve tried the premium tier with wagyu before, but the value wasnβt as good β now we stick to the basic tier and go all out on beef tongue! Their dips and banchan are top-notch β three kinds of sauces, plus super refreshing pickled daikon that cuts through the richness perfectly. Combo with the meat? Absolutely delicious!ππ Today we also tried the wagyu fried rice, eaten with grilled beef tongue and pickled radish β seriously incredible, so flavorful! Only downside: sometimes it gets pretty smoky inside β I worry a bit for the staff working thereβ¦ But overall, highly recommended, especially after a workout when you need to load up on protein and carbs! π Honestly, from ambiance to food to sauces, it totally outshines another popular BBQ spot Iβve tried β hard to understand why that other place only offers dry spice and sesame sauce for dipsβ¦ #LAfood #BBQ #LAlife #Foodie #KoreanBBQ #PasadenaEats #LAeats πβ¨
