The highlight of the meal was the Juicy Lucy burger. The brisket is very good as well. Everything else was decent. Drinks were good and our server Anne made our meal a great dining experience. She is awesome and very attentive.

Delicious BBQ in the heart of staten island . A fun, friendly place with cold beer , wonderful milkshakes and delicious barbecue. The brisket is to die for and they also make wonderful chicken sandwiches and burgers. Reasonably priced and generous portions.

came here tonight with my boyfriend and could not be more disappointed. both of us ordered a 1/2 chicken each and it came out freezing to the touch (so clearly it was sitting in kitchen for a while before being brought out). i never ever return food as i am a server at a restaurant for 6 years and understand that these things happen, however i bring it to our server's attention and he brings it to the back and very obviously REHEATS it? that's disgusting on top of bringing it back after and it still isn't hot. THEN on top of it almost charges us for both after I didn't even touch my food. He removed it from the check and Then out of spite took forever to come back. On our way out, other staff is drinking Twisted Teas and screwing around very visibly on the side of the building with a full restaurant. Will never ever come back and recommend for you to not even consider coming back.

Well it took us a few years to try this place. We had takeout once before from Amboy (ribs and brisket) and it was really good so we wanted to try the restaurant. It's not the best BBQ I've ever had. It was good. But I don't need to go back. Fried pickles were good. Smash burger topped with pulled pork- I didn't get any Smokey flavor from the pulled pork. It was almost as if they didn't put a rub on it at all to smoke it. The burger was good but the bun was really basic sesame bun. Pastrami was ok. I guess cause it's brisket pastrami it would be different than a traditional deli pastrami. Anything fried -fries, onion rings and churros had the same oily taste. Churros were drenched in oil, but barely had cinnamon sugar. The waitress--seemed super nice when we got there but AFTER hearing her "sales routine" it was quite annoying. She kept saying things like I will put that side with your food or I can add any side to your choice of BBQ. Making it sound like it was free, I knew it wasn't but some people might think it that way. She really tried to upsell everything. She was attentive to the table. I would say stick to BBQ RIBS OR BRISKET. That's what they are known for.

Do yourself a favor and just don't go here. Their food is burnt to charcoal . They don't care. Our ticket got lost and waited 2 hours for our food .. then they told us they didn't even have what we ordered. TWO HOURS BEFORE ANYONE SAID ANYTHING TO US. place is disgusting.. don't even waste your time

Juicy Lucy’s brisket and St Louis ribs exceeded my expectations! Their brisket is exceptional. The ribs fell off the bones. I prefer mine dry-rubbed, and the sauce was a bit distracting, but I was happy to make a mess eating these delicious ribs.Excellent mac and cheese, too.Great servers (thank you all!), and meeting Junior who welcomed me and every guest with warmth and a smile.Their brisket might be the best I’ve had in any bbq restaurant.I hope to sit outside in their large space next visit.

First I sat outside waited 20 mins for a waitress. Then we walked upstairs to be seated at another table. Waited 10 more minutes, looked around no one was eating. I left, terrible service.

I went in and the place looked nice and I was greeted to the nice staff..., but then I order juicy Lucy burger and Mac n cheese.... Mac n cheese tastes like if it been in a grandmas vagina past 50 years the juicy Lucy burger second I bite into it explodes all over my face like uncle Larry did to me I was devastated juicy Lucy burger really brought back memories from my childhood wit uncle Larry

Good portion, meats are juicy as it states! Friendly staff, and great atmosphere. Sitting outside is amazing with nice weather

Good local BBQ place. Good to come for drinks and brisket. To my taste Brisket is very good, however steaks and burgers are average. Good vibe and atmosphere. Solid 4 stars for sure.
I had flashback on my time in Texas, great brisket, ribs, and chicken, you can order by the pound, also the Coleslaw and mac and cheese goes well with a nice blue moon.if you love meat, that's a place to visit.

Great ribs!!! Great food and drinks. Not completely accessible to handicapped customers.

Probably the most horrible experience I've had in decades.Took my wife for a Friday afternoon burger and wound up being spattered with broken glass and vomit from a very drunk group who staff apparently knew and did nothing to calm them down. Drunk women being fondled while selfies were taken. Vile language was the norm. Was thinking of bringing our grand children bit sooo happy we didn't. What a poor environment for regular folks

First time here the food and service was good. I ordered the 28oz ribeye my wife had the ribs. They charge by the pound and if you want a side you need to add it for a price. Ordered the ? watermelon sangria ? it was also good. You only get one side with the steak wish they included two. All sides are separate to order and pricey. Wanted the waffle fries they did not have them however, ordered the sweet potato casserole with my steak it was awesome and very filling. Cool place to go!

I loved the cocktail I ordered. My brisket sandwich and my husband's pulled pork sandwich werr a little dry, but nothing that a little more BBQ sauce couldn't fix. Fries were great but the salad was sooo good. Large wedges of iceberg lettuce with bacon, chunks of blue cheese. Service was pretty good.
