“Sometimes you’re just looking for a little beach time and some great BBQ – and Batesy's BBQ delivered on both! We were in town helping another G-FORCE location with an Amazon project, so naturally, we took a break to explore the local food scene. First Impressions: We kicked off with the Deviled Eggs – the jalapeño added a nice little kick while the bacon... well, it was bacon – crispy and delicious. Next up were the House Pickles – sweet, vinegary, and unexpectedly tasty. Who knew pickles could be this good? The Mains: Harry went with the Pulled Pork – packed with flavor, moist, and paired with an excellent sauce. The Potato Salad stood out with just the right-sized chunks, and the Cornbread? Perfectly crispy on the outside. Steve opted for the BBQ Chicken – tender and juicy, coated with that same outstanding house sauce. And the Kielbasa? This place might not be Polish, but they nailed it – full of flavor and definitely a surprise hit! The Potato Salad reminded us of Grandma’s homemade classic, and the Collards had a unique twist that, honestly, we didn’t hate. The rest of the table didn’t hold back either – from the Burger to the Mac and Cheese and, of course, more Pulled Pork, it was all a hit! No complaints across the board – Batesy's BBQ is definitely a must-stop if you’re in Rockaway Beach. #BBQLovers #PaintAndPlateCrew #GForceOnTheGo #FoodieFinds #WinWithVSB”

Parking: They have parking for customers”

“We are on vacation here and we were searching for good food in this location and we found this place. At first we were hesitant to order from this place because of the reviews we have read. But we tried chicken fried rice and fried chicken and it was delicious and affordable. We highly recommend this place if u love spicy and authentic Chinese food. Don’t forget to ask for extra hot sauce.

“This place is fantastic!! The food flavorful and you’ll end up craving it a few days later. I highly recommend their spicy katsu chicken sandwich and their curry bowl. They have fun Japanese drinks, desserts and snacks as well. There is sometimes a long line but it goes quick. Definitely check this place out.”

“Food is amazing!!! Super traditional with a rustic country charm. The flavor combinations are terrific and exciting for the palate. The rhum was strong and cocktails are mixed very well. Dishes priced well!”

“Great place. Definitely must come back again.”

“Loved this place! 6 of us came for a family meal and it was amazing! Our server, Maxine was so accommodating, attentive and friendly! Drinks were awesome and the pizza was light and delicious! It was crowded but fun and not too loud to talk:)”

“Yer basic taproom, a bunch of their own great beers on draught and can, mix of lager, IPA and silly stout. Bar staff that know the beers.

The afternoon I visited there was a DJ on playing some light rock, a nice amount of background ambience without getting in the way of having a conversation.”

“Burger was great, fries are well seasoned as everyone else notes (a bit too much for me personally). A vegetarian friend got the vegan burger with regular cheese and said it was really good”

“Amazing flavor and service”

“Good food and coffee and friendly staff👍👍👍👍👍”

“Absolute necessary stop if in the neighborhood of worth a drive/ride if outside 👍”

“Had a pasta and pizza and they were both amazing. We are from Australia and found it hard to find a good restaurant in the Marina bay sands area and this did not disappoint. 5 stars”

“Beautiful bar and people , I felt at home and am new to the area but enjoy and recommend. I am impressed.”

“everything was delicious, atmosphere was fantastic, service was great. Highly recommended!”

“An absolute must! Such a tucked away gem. I Came in on a whim for dinner on my own, and was lucky enough to grab the only seat available at the bar. The host and manager were incredibly accommodating.

I started with the Broccolini Borani, which was absolutely fantastic. I had it with the Komaj bread, a pair I highly recommend. The citrus date and cabbage salad was also beyond unique. The dates are served warm, and the combination of ingredients makes for a start that beautifully combines what we think of as a salad, with everything we look for in a comfort food. Please Get this!
I also had the grilled Ahi tuna. The eclectic use of mint, pomegranate, walnuts, and chili oil made this dish as beautiful as it was superb (be sure to get this too)

I opted for the octopus kebab as my entree, which was perfectly tender and served with a delicious pepper tahini and pickled cucumbers. It has a little kick to it, which I loved, and served as the perfect finish.

Don’t skip on dessert. The saffron Ice cream sandwich was everything I saw depicted online and more, but the couple next to me enjoyed the rose cake, and the reviews sounded incredible as well. So be sure to leave room for either one.

The service was above and beyond from start to finish. The bartenders were also incredibly welcoming and walked me through the menu and their recommendations step by step.
On that note, definitely get the Saffron Martini!

This place is 10/10 will definitely be back.”

“I went here for my sisterbirthday and the vibe and ambiance was just amazing .Amazing customer service. I took pictures because the place was aesthetically pleasing.The food was amazing and drinks were hitting ☺️”

“My plus one and I really enjoyed our time here. We had just gotten home from vacation and were in a mood for Ramen and this place did not disappoint.
Let me just say that this place has such a traditional Japanese vibe to it…the staff is warm and welcoming and the food was spectacular.
We had the ramen, both original and spicy and it was very delicious. We also had two Asahi beers and called it a day.
Overall, I will come back to this place more often.”

“Whether for a date or chilling with friends, this spot is a great vibe. From the food to the drinks everything was a hit. Dj spins your favorite tunes, keeps you engaged. Definitely will be coming back.”

“I've never written a review before but after ordering from Knish Nosh, I had to. I've never in my life tasted such amazing food like this and to be honest I'm very critical and hard to please when it comes to food so like always I was waiting to either be let down or not that impressed but I was shocked I live in the City and I order from these guys 2 sometimes 3 times a week. I'm trying to get in touch with the owner, I'm willing to invest in Knish Nosh opening in the City! Simone E”

“We had delicious ceviche here! I’m sure it’s the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant.”

“I got booze and it was good, my liver hurts, let's get naked”

“I am SO glad I found this place! The shrimp kebab seriously is divine, I think I developed an addiction. Also, they have happy hour every day until 7pm and their house wine is so good. The place is cozy and relaxing. On a recent Saturday night I was there for 4 hours... they never rush you, the staff is super friendly.”

“We’ve been here several times, and they have the best Caesar salad in the city. As for the pizzas, I’m still undecided. You can’t go wrong with a classic, but the other options seem a bit lackluster. The dough is perfect but they can work on taste.

I also think their prices might have changed since our last visit a few months ago.”
