Oxtail hit or miss.
I placed a take out order here. We ordered the roasted chicken and stir fry shrimp. The food was very tasty. The bartender took our order, and she was very pleasant. I'll definitely go back again to dine in

First time coming from upstate,ny with my partner’s PreBirthday surprise dinner & Drake concert and let me just say we were both impressed with your place, the attentive waitress/bartender named Arielle. The food was amazing & drinks was on point. I had the classic oxtails & my partner had the lobster tail dish. We can definitely come again.

On Thursday 3/28 we arrived at 6:25pm since we had 6:30pm reservation. When we arrived, the place was pitch dark, and the chairs were up but the was open with no one there. The sign on the door said they would be back at 6:00pm. It was disappointing because we had friends from out of town and I spoke so highly of this place and how good the food is here, and we had to find another place to go to at the last minute. I've been to the establishment several times and really enjoy the food, music and overall vibe but on this particular evening it was a disappointment.
Having frequently passed Bar Biz on my way home, I added it to my list of must-try places, especially now that I'm an Elmont resident looking to connect with my community. Upon entering, I was greeted by the cozy ambiance and my favorite reggae music playing in the background. I found a spot at the bar, although the welcome was minimal, a menu was promptly provided.The menu immediately caught my attention with its promising selection. I started with the Lychee Martini, which was delicious and well-balanced in terms of liquor and mix ratio, a tad too sweet for my taste. For my appetizer, I choose the crab and spinach dip, which was mediocre. The dish lacked seasoning, the spinach was large wilted chunks, and the crab was almost nonexistent. At $24, I felt that improved seasoning and a bit more flavor, along with finely chopped spinach and thicker chips (perhaps homemade to better complement the dish and justify the price), could elevate it significantly.For my entree, I was eager to try the curry oxtail. It was beautifully presented, and the seasoning had a nice spice kick, but the curry flavor became overwhelming after a few bites, and the rice was somewhat hard throughout the dish and the side of spinach present with the dish was tasteless with no seasoning or added any compliments to the flavor of the dish.A total of $154.00 plus tip for one.Despite these culinary hiccups, I appreciated the ambiance, decor, and especially the karaoke segment of Bar Biz. As someone passionate about food and exploring new places, I see great potential here with a few adjustments suggested by patrons. I'm certainly open to giving it another try.

It was a Birthday celebration and the owner tended to us personally. She was so attentive and made our visit a true pleasure. The curry oxtails is one of the signature dishes and it did not disappoint. I was in the mood for steak, and I'm so glad I was. Our party had different dishes like the Elmont pasta (a play on Rasta Pasta), traditional oxtails, and of course my steak. It was my first time and the vibe was nice, the decor was soothing and the music created a nice ambiance for a wonderful evening. I'll be back.

Great food and beautifully plated! The Guiness Jerk Chicken was delicious and fell off the bone it was so tender. I'd come again.
