REVIEWS review pending approval - phAkuuAtJi posted Thursday, January 22, 2009 "We really liked the garbage can combo at Robin's BBQ. It was lots of BBQ on a garbage can lid & it was excellent. Fair prices, friendly waiter and a real cool atmosphere will bring us back again. Thanks." - P.S. posted Monday, December 12, 2005 "We think that Robin's has the best ribs in Los Angeles. The sauces are great, the meats are tender and well smoked and they treat you like your part of their family." - c.d. posted Monday, December 12, 2005 "This place has really come a long way in the last 4-5 years. they really got their BBQ act together. The ribs, sausage and the different sauces are all 1st rate. My favorite is that garbage can combo sampler." - H.J. posted Wednesday, July 6, 2005 "We really enjoyed the baby back ribs at Robin's. They were tender and pleasantly smoked. The mad dog sauce was just spicy enough without being too hot. " - D.S. posted Tuesday, June 21, 2005 "The BBQ is as delicious as the smoke you smell outside as you are walking into the restaurant. Great quality meat, not fatty and the baby-back ribs are mouthwatering with fall of the bone meat. I highly recommend this place for people who really like and know their BBQ joints." - AM posted Monday, June 6, 2005
"The legendary "BBQ JOINT" lived up to all it hype. We were very impressed with the quick service, great background music(oldies) and definately the baby back ribs & tri-tip. The sides were exceptional, especially the bluecheese-pecan cole slaw & the wild Maine blueberry cornbread. All in all, a great meal experience and we will return." - B.M. posted Sunday, May 29, 2005 "Wow, The 2 times I have been with my husband we have had exceptional food and exceptional service. Even the Manager made sure we were happy. I cannot wait to take my friends and family when they come to visit. Try the Garlic Mushrooms as an appetizer! All styles of BBQ are different,try all the sauces to find one just right for your palate. Worth a shot!!" - CVA posted Friday, April 1, 2005 "We were really impressed. Heard a lot about this place & they didn'y disappoint us. Great ribs with a nice smoky flavor, excellent sauce and very friendly, attentive but not over bearing service. Our server C-Lo was excellent. This ones a keeper. " - av posted Wednesday, October 6, 2004 "I kept hearing Robin's had great barbeque,so I was anxious to go.WAS I SORRY! the service was slow and there was only 1 other couple in the place! Thefood was terrible! Some of the worst bbq I have ever tasted ,the sauces were awful! Never again! " - L.D. posted Saturday, August 14, 2004 "I travel on business regularly, and every city I go to, I like to find the best local BBQ. Robin's is definitely "it" near Pasadena." - dwb posted Monday, June 28, 2004 "Great place to take the family. There is something for everyone. The patio is nice too." - AR posted Tuesday, April 27, 2004
"Great atmosphere, great ribs, a great place to take the family." - A.V. posted Monday, April 26, 2004 "Great Ribs. Barbeque is not an easy cooking method to master but you folks got it together." - R.J. posted Thursday, April 22, 2004 "Best BBQ Ribs in L.A. Service is friendly & efficient and the bar really rocks on Friday nites. Not a quite place but the blues they play is great." - BP posted Monday, April 12, 2004 "The food & service has really improved over the past few years. We hadn't been there in quite a while. Our server Christopher was attentive, quick & very personable. He was training someone the night we were dining & still made sure we were well taken care of. Quite an improvement. We'll visit Robin's more often now." - B.B. posted Monday, March 8, 2004 "Great place to go after the movies. Love to smell the bbq smoke out in the parking lot. Pretty cool place." - db posted Wednesday, February 25, 2004 "I like the Atkins lunch specials that thet offer. The mgr said that on their new menu they would include an Atkins dinner selection. I look forward to it. The tri-tip & baby back ribs are exceptionally good." - bh posted Monday, February 23, 2004
"Great Baby back ribs, cool retro music & the green apple martini's are the bomb. I do wish they were open on Monday. I also like the old beer & soda signs. It's got a cool roadhouse look." - er posted Wednesday, February 18, 2004 "Has improved in both quality of food & service. Beware, they are closed on Monday. Very good Bar-B-Que ribs and burgers." - bh posted Tuesday, February 17, 2004 "Used go there as a kid when it was a coffee shop. They turned it into one heck of a rib joint. My favs are the Garbage Can Combo & the huge Long Island Iced teas. Service is pretty good too." - TL posted Saturday, February 14, 2004 "This place rocks for BBQ. They now have Atkins friendly meals also. " - CF posted Monday, January 5, 2004 "Real deal BBQ here. When you can smell the hickory smoke in the parking lot you know it's going to be great BBQ. I like the baby back ribs & the Garbage can combo. The meat falls right off the bone. I also like the fact that they offer 4 different kinds of BBQ sauce. This place should be on your BBQ map." - MT posted Wednesday, November 26, 2003 "We like this place. We also like Tony Roma's on So. Lake but Robin's has a real barbeque feel to it. The free peanuts, red checked table clothes, the music, it's all good. The tri-tip is also very good. We eat out often and generally have barbeque once a week. We would rate Robin's in the top 2-3 rib joints in Los Angeles. By the way, if your in the Crenshaw/Leimert Park area, try Phillip's BBQ. As good as Robin's but it's take-out only. We eat it in the car." - JH posted Thursday, November 13, 2003 "Great BBQ, great look, great music. Often visit after going to the movies next door. I watched this restaurant evolve from a cheap coffee shop to an upscale family restaurant and to a cool family BBQ joint. They're very innovative. My favorites are the baby back ribs, the onion rings and all the regional BBQ sauces.They really got there act together." - HB posted Sunday, November 9, 2003 "We could smell the wonderful smokey BBQ next door at the Pacific Theatre and it yanked us in. Hadn't been there since it was a coffee shop. It's like a nostalgic musuem with all the old signs & stuff. Great 60's music. A real "Q" joint. Service was good, food was even better. Baby back ribs were fall off the bone tender, the sausage was hot, but not to hot, the blue-cheese pecan cole slaw was excellent as was the blueberry corn bread muffins. We'll happily return." - MJ posted Sunday, November 9, 2003 "You have to be stoned not to like or love the Ribs at Robin's. I agree the service use to annoy me. But now when I go the service has improved, but hell this isn't the Parkway Grill it's frigin BBQ joint. I go for the food/ Neve ever disappointed 12/19/02" - pd posted Thursday, December 19, 2002 "My husband and I went looking for some great BBQ and were disappointed in the quality of the food and service. It looked like there were regulars as some were greeted as they came in but we had to wait 20 minutes to be seated. The BBQ ribs and chicken were not cooked and the side dishes were not too appealing. Too bad, since we figured it would be good BBQ, but found out it wasn't for us." - BD posted Saturday, February 23, 2002 "Best BBQ but has the worst service. The food is worth it, but the service is so slow that you wait awhile between visits." - jdv posted Sunday, September 16, 2001 "What a cool place with great food! The decor, the ambiance and the outside patio are great! My family has tried everything on the menu and our favorites are the mesquite grilled Baby Back ribs with all the BBQ sauces, the tri-tip sandwiches and the pizzas. The breakfast on the weekends are a Pasadena tradition as Best Breakfast place for many years. The jerk omelettes and the pancakes are my favorites. Robin's is family oriented with balloons and crayons for kids. After dinner, we usually go next door for a movie at the Pacific Hastings. Free parking too!" - mv posted Wednesday, May 2, 2001 "Looks like a chain, taste like a chain with large portions. We had to wait to seated because the waiter & waitress were too busy talking to each other to give any customer's service." - jw posted Thursday, August 17, 2000 "FAR more interesting than chains like Denny's, etc., with MUCH better food, and plenty of it! GREAT for kids." - B&JB posted
