Tasteless
Everything is amazingly good, even the pickle is salty to perfection. All the meats were juicy and flavorful, and the servers are very attentive

Worst place ever.
Would give them a 0 but I can’t.
*UPDATE*
Isn’t a fake profile despite the owner trying to save himeself.
As you can see, Customer service is well, disgusting. Not so bad on here as it is in person.
Not the type to leave bad reviews. But the pork and beef we ordered was cold. Was not fresh. It was late and hungry atheist was somewhat eatable. Wine also was bad. Won't come back
Came here for dinner and couldn’t wait to post this review.
I’m in and out of Texas and Tennessee five times a year. I’ve eaten at historic BBQ spots down south, some dating back to the 60s. I know a good brisket and pulled pork when I see it. I’ve attempted to have southern BBQ in NYC many times and it always falls short, sometimes criminally.
Butcher Bar does it real Texas style. The burnt ends will literally melt in your mouth. Not too salty either. The Mac and cheese is as rich as a billionaire. The corn bread is addictive. The fried chicken appetizer was spectacular and that buffalo sauce it came with, I could have drank it on its own. The beers are cold which is always something I look for.
The wonderful owners Matt and Kathy were very hands on during service and they made sure to go table to table to make sure with all the costumers that the food was to their liking.
This is literally THE BEST southern BBQ in the entire state of NY and could easily compete at a food fair with any down south spot.

Good bbq. Watch out for the “honey butter”. It’s not real butter more like margarine.

Tasteless meat that can’t be saved by any sauce. Slow service acting like they don’t even care. Sad…

The server was very kind, but the food was very very disappointing. I came for lunch and got the blue plate special with brisket. Everything was room temperature and not fresh at all. I had better store bought brisket from Costco. I’m not sure if this was a one off, but when the entire meal was not fresh I assume it’s always like this.

The service it was great. Unfortunately I can't say the same about the food. The brisket definitely didn't spell barbecue and the sauce didn't make it much better. The pulled chicken was dry and drenched in more of that sauce. The cornbread was also dry and inedible which was disappointing because I feel you can't really go wrong with cornbread. I left very disappointed and still hungry.

This is my favorite type of restaurant in the U.S. It reminded me of ‘Green Street Smoked Meats’ in Chicago, and I was satisfied not only with the taste but also with the price and portion size.

Hey Homie! Been to your place about a dozen or so times over the past 5 years. The food is honestly mid tier bbq. Moved two blocks off 30th and almost forgot about the place completely. Speaking of forgetfulness, Butch remembering to add the right amount sauces or honey butter to a takeout bag is a pretty uncommon occurrence.
I saw the owner (all the locals call him homie) does such phenomenal job handling negative feedback in a professional and respectful manner that I figure I would share my personal, less-than-ideal experiences.
I don't personally know anyone who has ever left a review for this place, but be on the lookout for the owner doing his best impression of a whiny teenager in the response section while trying to suggest otherwise.
If you do visit, ask homie for the brisket sandwich. It's actually pretty good if you've completely lost all sense of taste.
