The Park's Finest

The Park's Finest

Los Angeles, CA

The Park's Finest represents a uniquely Los Angeles story of cultural fusion and community pride, bringing Filipino-American BBQ to Historic Filipinotown and Echo Park since 2009. Founded by Johneric Concordia and his family, this restaurant emerged from 20 years of backyard barbecue tradition, transforming from a popular catering operation into a beloved brick-and-mortar destination in 2012. The Park's Finest reimagines American BBQ through a Filipino lens, creating what they describe as "50% Mom, 50% Pop, 100% LA." Their signature dishes blend traditional American smoking techniques with Filipino flavor profiles, resulting in unique creations like Mama Leah's Coconut Beef Adobo featuring 16-hour smoked chuck roast stewed in coconut cream, and Mount Malindang Pork Ribs glazed with their tomato-based house BBQ sauce infused with coconut and pineapple. The famous Ann's Cornbread Bibingka exemplifies their innovative approach, combining cornmeal with rice flour and coconut milk, then baking it on banana leaves to evoke Filipino rice cake traditions. Their hot links merge Filipino longanisa sausage with American sausage-making, while their tri-tip demonstrates technical BBQ mastery. The restaurant earned recognition on Food Network's "Diners, Drive-ins & Dives" and has been featured in Food & Wine magazine, cementing its status as an essential Los Angeles restaurant. With a selection of Filipino-inspired craft beers and a commitment to community revitalization, The Park's Finest continues the tradition of the neighborhood backyard boogie where families gathered, celebrated, and connected through food, creating new traditions that honor both Filipino heritage and Los Angeles culture.
