- alice tJuly 20, 2011Came here for restaurant week and had chipotle wings, Kansas city ribs, and hot fudge brownie. All were finger lickin good, and the service = top notch. Definitely will be returning.
- Peter GentOctober 11, 2014Get the wings. The wings are awesome, and the blue cheese that comes with them is the tastiest I've ever had.
- Ben BowersAugust 21, 2011The Rhapsody in Que is an excellent sampler of most of Blue Smokes specialities and isn't too overwhelming size wise. As others have said, the Mac n cheese is a must have.
- Come for weekend brunch and go nuts with the fried chicken & waffles -- slather on some maple butter and hot sauce... it's a real revelation.
- At lunch...I had the Rhapsody in 'Cue which was incredible. The fried bread with caramel dipping sauce was super! Atmosphere and service superb!!!
- Frankie NovickMarch 16, 2011My favorite place for BBQ in NY. Ribs are delicious, warm BBQ chips and blue cheese dip is a great starter and don't miss out on the rich and creamy mac and cheese
- Victor QuinnJanuary 21, 2018Excellent barbecue, mac and cheese is delicious, and the cornbread madeleines are delightful. Highly recommended!
- NearSay NYCJuly 25, 2011The Ribs are succulent and flavorful; sweet and savory! Our favorite dish was the Mashed potatoes. Rich, creamy and accented by the crispy onions on top. Pure goodness!
- Sabrina PorterMay 8, 2010Great BBQ meals, a little on the pricey side but always yummy and worth the extra cash. I suggest going there with a group and sharing all the sides because it tends to be hard to choose just one. Sta Read more
- Anthony CaponitiSeptember 4, 2014I definitely recommend the brisket shoulder and can't go wrong with the tomato-based Carolina BBQ sauce.

- Julie SosciaAugust 1, 2018Fantastic BBQ, ask for the daily specials - cocktails and fried chicken are always on point.
- Michael BrownSeptember 20, 2015The ribs were disappointing. The baby back wasnt tasty. The wings were amazing though. The green beans were fantastic also.
- Julie SosciaJanuary 29, 2019Fantastic BBQ, ask for the daily specials - cocktails and Alabama wings are a must.
- Garett PressOctober 28, 2014Cornbread with syrup is bonkers delicious. Get rhapsody in cue for a smattering of bbq delights.
- Michelle TNovember 12, 2010I second the spicy cheese fries - there's just something about pigging out from a bucket that adds to the allure! My friend was pleased with the huge gluten-free menu that's mostly unadvertised.
- Julie StubbsMarch 12, 2014As a born and raised Southern Girl, I rate this BBQ ordinary. They try to do 2 much here with the Memphis, KC, TX BBQ versions, etc. stick to being good at 1 version bc u can't be good at everything.
- Basheer BergusJune 1, 2012Love the Texas ribs. Creamed spinach was delicious, and the wait staff was fast and funny. Great beer and bourbon selection too!

- Rachel RJanuary 23, 2017Too many good dishes to count - try the Brussels sprouts, biscuits, and especially the smoked chicken wings!
- Mike FraiettaDecember 10, 2014Not bad BBQ if stuck in Manhattan, but I'd go to Beast of Bourbon or Fette Sau in BK if you need a real fix. Impressive beer rotation.
- Yoni ZloczewskiDecember 20, 2015Average BBQ but it's one of the only sit down proper BBQ environments so if your party is fussy and doesn't like ordering at the counter or sitting on benches - that their fancy pants to Blue Smoke
- Ernie OportoJanuary 19, 2015Great beers! Delicious ribs and burgers! A gourmet spot without the crazy prices.
- Adam S.November 27, 2012Fantastic brisket, pulled pork, and ribs... and awesome sides: Mac n cheese, sweet potato fries, beans, etc
- GourmetLiveJuly 25, 2011It might seem like sacrilege for a pitmaster from the tiny Georgia town of Unadilla to laud a somewhat upscale dining spot in the middle of Manhattan, but Myron Mixon says Blue Smoke chef Kenny Callag

- BBQ Pork Spare Ribs with Sweet Potato Mash & Candied Pecans
- Pub Diaries www.pubdiaries.comAugust 31, 2011We had mussels, hush puppies to start. The broth on the mussels was good enough to have on it's own. Rib sampler for one was enough for two.
- Brian SnyderApril 29, 2013If you ask nicely, they'll fix you the biscuits and gravy as a side dish at dinner. And they are amazing!
- Avin NarasimhanJuly 15, 2011hush puppies are fantastic, served with a jalapeno marmalade. mac + cheese is also ridiculously good but very rich. oh and the bbq = fantastic
- Rami MassoudSeptember 2, 2016The wings were great, especially with sauce on the side so they are nice and crispy

- Chad HornerMarch 27, 2016it's a small touch, but Blue Smoke has the *best* hand wipes of any barbecue joint I've been to

- Wei VaynOctober 13, 2015Try the Warm Barbecue Potato Chips With Blue Cheese & Bacon Dip (via @Foodspotting)
- A MargsOctober 28, 2012Ask for the toffee sauce with fry bread! Also the pulled pork platter will feed a family of four!
- Serious EatsAugust 2, 2013Slightly fancy sit-down barbecue. Salt and pepper beef short ribs are the must-order.
