About us

Since 1998, BBQ lovers across San Diego County have turned to restaurateur Phil Pace to satisfy a singular craving: mesquite grilled baby back and beef ribs, chicken and sandwiches. Serving thousands of customers a day from a diverse clientele of skateboarders to Bentleys, Phil has built his foundation on consistency, quality, freshness and friendly service. "We thrive on providing each guest with the 'Phil's Experience', which basically comes down to organized chaos," laughs owner Phil Pace. "The biggest reason behind our success is our loyal customers who have supported us and waited in line for a taste of BBQ since '98." Since opening our doors in San Diego, Phil's BBQ has served over one million (and counting!) gallons of Phil’s signature BBQ sauce (enough to fill Shamu's tank). Expanding from four employees to well over 400, we have become an employer of choice in San Diego. In 2007, after the smoke cleared from the original Phil's BBQ location in Mission Hills, the restaurant relocated to a much larger space in Point Loma. Even with a change of location, the Phil's experience and menu remains the same: long lines of anticipation, an energetic, friendly atmosphere, fantastic food, huge portions, and many, many, paper towels. Over the years, Phil’s BBQ has successfully opened four more freestanding restaurants in San Marcos (shuttered at lease end in 2020), Santee, Rancho Bernardo, and Temecula. We also have a location in the San Diego International Airport (Terminal 2 West). Phil doesn't come from a long line of BBQ connoisseurs. Instead, he created from scratch a top-secret recipe for BBQ rubs and sauce while taking his dad's advice “to only cook what you know best and treat employees like family.” Phil has been a pioneer of fast-casual dining since the opening of the first restaurant, giving San Diegans what they want - great BBQ! Taking care, satisfying cravings, and supporting customers has always been the #1 priority!

  This Christmas season, our Phil’s BBQ team came together to give back to local families in our community. From collecting food to donating gifts, our employees once again showed the heart behind what we do. Their generosity, teamwork, and commitment to serving others extends well beyond our restaurants, and we could not be more proud of them. Thank you to our incredible team for making the holidays brighter for those around us. Merry Christmas! #PhilsBBQ #BBQrew #SeasonOfGiving #GivingBack #CommunityFirst

  Yesterday may have been Thanksgiving, but gratitude is something we celebrate year-round at Phil’s BBQ. Each year, our team comes together to collect groceries and household essentials so we can provide a full Thanksgiving dinner for a local family in need. It’s one of our favorite traditions - not just because of the meal, but because of what it represents: community, compassion, and looking out for one another. Thank you to our incredible team for giving with full hearts, and to our community for allowing us to continue serving San Diego & Temecula with good food and good will. We hope everyone enjoyed a warm and delicious holiday with the people who matter most! ❤️

  We may be a few weeks late, but this shoutout is worth the wait! Last month marked Jorge's 15-year anniversary with Phil’s BBQ - and what an incredible 15 years it’s been. From day one, he has been an essential part of our BBQrew, bringing passion, consistency, and heart to everything he does. Fifteen years of dedication, teamwork, and BBQ greatness - we couldn’t be more grateful to have him on our team!

  Last week, we celebrated the heart of our restaurants - our incredible BBQrew! From nacho bars and sweet treats to personalized notes and daily surprises, it was all about showing gratitude for the team that brings the sizzle to everything we do. Huge shoutout to our managers for making each location feel extra special and to every crew member who brings their best to the grill, the line, and the floor every single day. These photos say it all - smiles, spirit, and a whole lot of BBQ love. We’re proud of the culture we’ve built, and we’re even more proud of the people behind it!
