Inside, families and couples at large booths and tables feast on mesquite-grilled BBQ in a modern, earth-toned setting. Slow-roasted meats, such as baby-back ribs and chicken, dominate the moderately-priced menu, but crowd-pleasers also include the 15-ounce Kansas City Strip, freshwater Idaho trout and balsamic shrimp. If that doesn't trip the trigger, Certified Angus Beef burgers and mile-high salads are other options.

Coleslaw is awesome! 4 By R T. \| Insider \| Rank: 13,228 Wood Ranch BBQ & Grill Not only is the BBQ great, but I have never had a better coleslaw, wow! A little pricey, but portions are generous. Every visit to Wood Ranch has been great, whether we dine-in or do take-out. Posted 12/15/08 \| Printable Version Was this review helpful to you?

But when you order the 'signature dish' (in this case, their tri-tip) one expects it to be more meat than fat. Both my husband and I were disappointed to find that more than the usual fat was attached to ours. So while it was very tasty, it wasn't really a lot for what you were paying for. I guess a good way to get around this is to order the tri-tip sandwich and skip the dinner portion. Far less coin, and most likely just as much in the meat department.

It combines healthy veggies and greens with lean steak. I'm not sure which dressing it comes with, but I always ask for vinagrette on the side. The prices are reasonable- about $15 total, so it's an expensive lunch, but good priced dinner. Plus it's at the Grove! Posted 03/25/08 \| Printable Version Was this review helpful to you?

By Bebo I took a date to this place and she had the Natalie's salad. She loved it. I had the Grilled Vegetable Salad and added chicken. The grilled veggies had a little bit of smoke flavor. Nothing better! Pros: Natalie's and Grilled Veggie Salad Cons: Too far from my office Posted 04/29/09 what happened? By maybell My husband and I have been coming here at least once and week and ordering the roasted vegetable salad among other items. we went there tonight and they had changed the menu and now the salad was awful. I don't know who the chef is but he or she needs to wake up and stop trying to be innovative. If it's not broken don't fix it! Pros: used to have the best salad in los angeles Cons: new changes to the menu Posted 04/04/09 Try the BBQ Sauce!! By acemanLA This place is pretty amazing. I started with a VERY cold beer (go for the larger one... upon recomendation of the server... good choice). And had an amazing BBQ Beef sandwich. Portions are very generous. I have been to the one in Agoura (the original) and this one is just as great. Easier to get a seat though. Very good BBQ, consistent results. Posted 10/27/08 great By sunshine1000 From a friendly warm welcome from Francesca and the other ladies to the excellent service from Jessie and the over all courtesy from the other servers with even just a hello made the dining experience memorable. Why can't other restaurants inthis stressful time we are living in do the same? Thank you Wood Ranch BBQ sunshine1000 Pros: great Cons: none Posted 08/14/08 One of the better restaurants in the Grove By joanovarq This place is hitt or miss. Recently I had was craving a good steak, and I came to Wood Ranch and ordered the rib eye; it was extremely delicious, tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned. I also highly recommend their scrumptious fresh-baked rolls, are covered in a thin film of olive oil and garlic. I've had other meals from their lunch menu that did not impress me as much; once I got the tri-tip and it was cold in the middle. Perhaps the issue is that their "cheap" lunch menu isn't as good as their full-price dinner menu? Also, they don't validate parking which stinks considering that they are located in the Grove. Pros: Ribeye steak, garlicky fresh-baked rolls Cons: they don't validate parking, lunch menu is so-so Posted 08/07/08
