Neighborhood gem
Good for groups
Great for outdoor dining

Maple Block Meat Co. is a tribute to the craftsmanship of butchering, smoking and grilling meat, paying respect to the deep-rooted traditions of American barbecue. Located on Sepulveda Blvd between Venice and Washington Place in Culver City, Maple Block Meat Co. specializes in authentic, wood-smoked meats prepared with the classic technique of smoking with whole peach wood and incorporating a variety of subtle flavor profiles that we love. Guests can expect a familial casual atmosphere, friendly attentive service, seasonal menu based on the traditions of American barbecue and a bar featuring craft beers, interesting wines and handmade sodas.

Brisket was dry. Mac&Cheese was served room temperature. Fries had too much seasoning (we requested only salt). Shiner on tap was flat and lukewarm. Servers were nice. Cole Slaw and biscuits were great!

Another excellent experience at Maple Block. Service was fantastic and the brisket and chicken were delicious. We loved that the pulled pork didn't come out drenched in sauce--it had just enough to balance the fatty pork.

We got our usual Feast for our family so we could sample the different meats. We had the chocolate bread pudding and peanut butter banana pudding for dessert and they were both delicious too. The staff were great and accommodating.
