Just BBQ at 2950 Johnson Drive #133, Ventura, California.

Just basic Santa Maria BBQ and has been for years. Tri tip grilled right in front of you, sliced up on grilled french bread. Sauce optional but even if you cringe at the thought of BBQ sauce on your tip, try it. The hot version is too much for most. Try it too, but get the regular for sure. Chili beans and potato salad are top notch. I never get tired of this. Be prepared to stand in line, it's worth the wait.

I'm afraid I have to pull 1 star. I've been here a couple times in the last few months and I'm sorry to say I agree it's not what it was. Being from the central valley we were cooking tri tip and top block 30 years ago.
A hint for the owner: your cook has no clue. What I had yesterday was dry, tough, and just plain overcooked. Again.

I had to eat the bread alone and dip the meat in the sauce and make like it was jerky.
Pull the tips off whole and let them rest at least 15-20 minutes. Don't carve up a tip fresh off the grill! The sauce is the same and your seasoning is too, but carve up the meat as it's served. Just a suggestion
