Times Description

Established in 1944, this small, funky shack surrounded by a U-shaped parking lot serves BBQ that's above average but hardly stunning, which still ranks it above most of the low-end joints in the Cahuenga Corridor. The saucy, smoky barbecued beef sandwich is the best thing on the menu. But the ribs (they have beef AND pork) tend to be a bit tough and are drenched in too much sauce. Across the board, Huston's prices are quite reasonable, and if it's not busy, you can settle into one of the plastic and formica booths, and hang out for hours, As unlikely as it may sound, Huston's for all your Hollywood meetings.
