50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Leonia

“Being in Leonia for a few days, having been told the neighborhood was mostly Korean, and having loved in Korea for 3 months a couple years ago, I indeed was willing to have Korean barbecue, my favorite Korean food
I searched online and Honey Pig looked like the best option
And I can now confirm it was a great idea

First when I entered I liked the style, with a main room but also private ones, with changhoji (translucent doors made from mulberry paper pasted onto wooden lattice frames), and the tables with the typical hole to hold barbecue grill

I had hot barley tea, seafood pancake as a starter, and as a main Kobe beef brisket, which came with steamed egg, lettuce, kimchi, seasoned spinach, seasoned bean sprouts, braised black beans, seasoned shredded radish, ssamjang (dipping sauce)...

It was very good and filling
And while a bit spicy (it has to, otherwise it wouldn't be Korean BBQ), it was definitely not as spicy as in Korea, which was very welcome for me, so don't worry if you're rather sensitive to spiciness
Plus the seafood pancake was incredibly soft, another must try in my opinion
Definitely the whole order could have been enough for two (I actually left half the pancake to to)
And the hot barley tea

Also, staff was well efficient

Definitely recommended!

“This was my first time having chinese bbq and 10/10 will go again to check out the chicago location as it's closer to where I live. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cozy. Just to be aware of the barbecue station, because you can totally burn yourself if you aren't careful 😂 my ex-friend lost a skewer in the flames and i had to use my chop sticks to get it out.“

“Found this place by accident. And OMG. One of the best Chinese skewer we've ever had, we tried Chubby Skewer in midtown, this place is better than that! Servers was friendly and helpful. Will be back for more.

We had :
50 skewers + rice
Pan fried noodles. The noodle dish, It didnt look appealing, but it was soooo ggooodd!“

“While waiting for our plane to board my mom and I ate here today. The food was great and the service was even better.

“I live in Queens and visited Jiang’s 4 times already since last year. It is really THAT good. Our go-to are the hand rolled noodles with lamb and the crispy dry chicken. We’ve tried so many other items, but these two are something I miss every once in a while. If only they were closer! The people working there are very kind and the best part of all is that they have a prayer area for Muslims. What else can you ask for?“

“Our server Ana was very attentive, sweet, and welcoming! Whenever we would need help/assistance, she and other staff would come right away or even without us asking! The restaurant also has many options and our family had a very enjoyable experience here, definitely will come back!“

“great local spot love it here“

“If you haven't been to Q Grill in Fort Lee yet, you are seriously missing out. We had an great meal, but a few dishes absolutely stole the show.
The experience started off strong because the banchan was incredibly plentiful, giving us so many great sides to taste. A huge standout was the kimchi, it tasted so fresh yet beautifully and well-fermented, hitting that perfect balance of crunch and tang. For the main event, we opted for the Trinity Wagyu combination, and it was spectacular. The beef was incredibly velvety, rich, and luxurious. To call it tender is an understatement—every single bite practically melted in my mouth, packed with that premium, juicy flavor you only get from high-quality Wagyu cuts.
The JapChae was executed perfectly with that ideal, bouncy chew and a beautifully balanced, savory-sweet sesame soy sauce. We also ordered the spicy rice cakes with cheese, which were the ultimate comfort food—perfectly chewy with just the right amount of kick, smothered in melted, gooey cheese.
Between the generous sides, the cheese-pulled rice cakes, and the top-tier meats from the Trinity combo, Q Grill is officially a favorite. Can't wait to come back!“

“So I’m a random tourist today that decides to make a stop on a rainy day with a six month old and a desperate need to charge my phone. Looks are deceiving because the restaurant was empty at first but I was starving, craving bbq, and needed to charge my phone.

The restaurant is gorgeous and I love the Ursula all around. I asked for a recommendation and was given the crispy chicken sandwich. Did not expect this to be the best crispy chicken sandwich of my life. The spicy sauce on the side was chefs kiss.
So I’m a happy new customer and it’s a full belly and charged phone now. Thanks Mighty Quinn!“

“Good late night snack, in a bit of a sketchy street so be aware. I’d recommend the Lamb on a stick, chicken on a stick, and beef on a stick. My friend liked the pork on a stick and shrimp on a stick too. Great workers, will be coming back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Came to KPOT BBQ for the food and left raving about the entire experience. The food was great, fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you walk into a place like this. But somehow the service was even better. Shoutout to Stella, our server, who absolutely made the night. Attentive, friendly, funny, and on top of everything without ever hovering. She handled our table like a pro and cooked some of our food for us too! , even while I was clearly having the time of my life and probably making a bit of a spectacle of myself. Stella, if you’re reading this, thank you for making an already great meal unforgettable. And if by some chance you felt the same good vibes, feel free to reach out. Either way, KPOT BBQ has a customer for life.“

“Excelente experiencia, la comida deliciosa y la atención del personal excepcional“

“This was a great experience! We were just at Kollection grabbing some kbeauty products.. when we wanted to eat somewhere. We had no wait, and the ambiance when we walked in was so chill. The table lamps are nice. The Bossam was AMAZING! I highly recommend that dish!! Especially with friends! I would do it plain. The seafood pancake was PACKED with seafood! It was light and fluffy! Corn and cheese was everything you would want.. creamy. And cheesy! I would have like a bit more corn I guess. Fun family dinner night out! The servings are good! I wish I could order more, but I’m full!
Shout out to Thomas our waiter! He was nice and attentive. Would definitely come back here again!“

“We had such a great meal at Pig Heaven! The BBQ spare ribs were so tender, flavorful, and perfectly glazed. We also really enjoyed the soup dumplings, Peking duck, Sesame chicken, noodles, and Mapo tofu. Everything came in generous portions and was great for sharing. The staff was friendly and welcoming too. Definitely a great Chinese spot on the Upper East Side. We’d love to come back!“

“Great food, nice services, good amenities.“

“Awesome place but biggest flaw is that they’re not actually open everyday, even if the weather is good. I passed by today at 8pm, weather was perfect and they weren’t there. I wish they had some way of letting people know if they’re not open for whatever reason, even if its just an instagram page of something“

“We had an awesome time! It’s a great sports bar but then you try the amazing food. Wow Love this place!!!“

“My family had a truly delightful dining experience at the Korean steakhouse. The quality of the meats was exceptional, and each cut was prepared to perfection by the table side servers. Accompanied by an array of delicious banchan, the flavors were vibrant and authentic. The attentive service further enhanced our meal, making it a memorable occasion. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment for anyone seeking a superb Korean barbecue adventure.“

“Wonderful vibe, foods and services are great !“

“Small place ran by a lovely couple with all the signature classic Romanian dishes! This place is a complete hidden gem! The eggplant salad starter is just like my grandmother and mother make, the meats are excellent - portion sizes are huge and everything tastes like a solid Romanian place on my visits to Romania. The star today was the Papanasi - a classic Romanian cheese donut! One of the best I had ever! Highly recommended! Will definitely come again!“

“Thank you for a Fantastic Fathers Day Dinner. Highest Recommendation!!“

“Pig Beach has the best BBQ in town! Get the ribs, the brisket, the wings, the turkey, the corn bread…and stick around for the live music (especially if @thevergenyc is playing)!!!“

“Amazing food, authentic flavor“

“Not crowded for a Friday lunch. Great portions and food quality for the price. Service from the young Korean is attentive. The other waitstaff were also friendly. Ambience is okay.

Banchan - loved the leafy greens x 2. Mayo macaroni corn tasted unique (maybe cos without potato) and was delicious. Cubed radish kimchi was good. Loved the chili fishcake. Cabbage kimchi was a miss for me.

LA Galbi - glistening, perfectly grilled large pieces of meat. Not black-charred which reassures me. Perfectly sliced so there weren’t gristly bone pieces like other places. Loved that they cooked the bed of onions as well compared to other establishments that leave them raw.

Mul naengmyon cold noodles - cold tangy broth was more-ish. Noodles were fine-strand and delicious.

Galbitang - very decent. Large chunks of tender beef.

One of the best lunches in K-town I’ve had in a while.“
