Its well worth the trek to dine on the best dry rub ribs in the city! Dine in or take it to go. Get the Dry Rub Pork Ribs with a side sweet potato mash, baked beans and bourbon peaches.

One highlight is the Big Pig Gig: For $479.99, you and 11 of your hungry friends can feast on a 30-pound pig, complete with Creamy Cole Slaw, Texas Toast, and two more sides of your choice. Read more

Been here 5+ times
You don't need to eat dinner after you've enjoyed lunch here. Order the dry rub ribs & brisket. Daisy May's is the best BBQ in NYC and rivals the BBQ in much of the US, including Kansas City.

This place is the real deal. Worth coming out to 11th ave for. The pulled pork was the standout best thing on our table, but their pork ribs were solid, too. I licked the dish the collards came in

This is the best BBQ in Midtown West. The dry and sticky ribs, turkey leg, bourbon peaches, and cream corn are highlights. However, avoid the mac n cheese and sweet potatoes.

Yummy is the word for this place I had a pulled chicken that I couldn't stop eating,the sides were the usual at any BBQ spot. There ice tea in this huge jug is awesome. I think location sucks though.

Memphis dry rub ribs = amazing. I got some bbq sauce on the side, but I easily didn't need it. Ribs were moist & well seasoned. Rice n' beans w/ collards were good too. Just needed some spice for kick

The ambience isn't anything to talk about but the jumbo beef ribs are. Great BBQ. Best sides: mac & cheese and creamy corn. Daisy May's also delivers anywhere in Manhattan for $10.

Chow down on Memphis-style ribs and mac and cheese platters at this down-home BBQ joint. Baked beans with burnt ends are the perfect side to any dish.

The Oklahoma Jumbo Beef Ribs are simply the best. One rib can feed 2-3 ppl easy. (Think Flintstones) They are soo tender u can cut them with a plastic knife like they where made of soft butter.
BhavnaSeptember 21, 2013
Probably some of the best pork ribs (kansas city ribs on the menu) I've ever had! Meat legit just fell off the bone. Cheesy corn was also amazing.

Zagat awarded this corner barbeque joint “Best Barbeque in NYC” 4 years in a row! Never mind its accolades, Daisy May’s is simply great eats. Lucky for you it's only one block away from Intrepid!

Michael Symon, of The Best Thing I Ever Ate, can't resist the pulled pork and amazing side dishes at Daisy May's BBQ in New York, NY. We recommend the BBQ Beef Ribs. Find more tips at FN Local. Read more

Pulled pork was great. Big seating area in the back with big tv's and I think an upstairs. Outta the way for most but if you're in the hood, definitely worth a look. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Daisy May's commits a major BBQ Sin. According to the cook "they cut the fat off before barbecuing the brisket." Anyone that knows BBQ knows you're supposed to cook brisket fat side up. Duh!
Caitlin ClementsMarch 30, 2014
Mac & Cheese leaves a little to be desired, but the brisket is tender and delicious. Counter service, so it's an easy place to go with a group.

Southern comfort food at its most decadent! Adam Perry Lang makes what I believe is the best BBQ north of the Mason-Dixon line. I crave his Kansas City ribs, pulled brisket, and corn with Wisconsin ch

Good dry rub ribs and Texas style curry. The sides were somewhat underwhelming, but good spot overall. Counter service so it's also slightly cheaper than your average bbq joint.

Consistent, delicious BBQ here. Dive into a plate of the brisket or a pulled pork sandwich. Don't overlook the delicious side either!
Heather ScottApril 19, 2015
Just pretend that the spiced peaches count as one healthy serving of fruit. They're like the filling of a good peach pie, but no crust!

Try a little of Everything. Amazing #NYC #BBQ spot. If you really love BBQ you need to eat here - now.
Adrian TorresMarch 12, 2012
If there are two of you: order the two meat, two side combo to share. More than enough food and if you're really hungry, order another side.

This mason jar is filled with liquid gold in the form of sweet tea. So good!

Pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw on top is the way to go!!

The smokers here run 24 hours a day and hold roughly 1,300 pounds of meat. The resulting menu includes sticky pork ribs, brisket, pulled pork and plenty of fixins. Read more

Come from 2:30pm to avoid the crowd. This is the BEST bbq in town
Neil GlassmanApril 25, 2013
One platter of the amazing pulled pork serves two. Just add corn bread.
funky flavorOctober 8, 2011
Omg not a cheap place to eat even tho it looks cheap. But the tea and the mac and cheese are soo amazing!
Luca DLJanuary 15, 2012
Try beef and pork ribs with mac&cheese but come in early for dinner: they close at 9pm, only Tue. and Sat. at 10pm
Waddy GonzalezMay 10, 2013
Best ribs in town! Not such a fan of the Mac n` cheese (but is not my cup of tea anyways)
Frank AmatoMarch 26, 2017
Best BBQ in NYC Hands Down!!!!
Felix GrushevskyApril 26, 2016
Sticky ribs were great, nice and friendly service
Kim ButzJanuary 21, 2012
Must try the sweet tea in a mason jar, JD pulled chicken, mac n'cheese, brisket, mashed potatoes n'gravy & corn
Scott GouldJune 29, 2010
As BBQ goes, I've had a lot better for a lot cheaper. The beef rib was definitely colossal, but average taste. The sweet tea is awesome and the creamed corn is like none I have ever tried -- and tas
Jim DandySeptember 11, 2013
Best and biggest beef rib in NY. Ask for extra sauce!
Sidi WangApril 27, 2012
Sweet sticky pork ribs are great when it's hot served! Sweet tea is a must try! Very Texas :)
Jose NaninSeptember 2, 2016
Good food... the brisket wasn't as juicy as I expected but ribs were good!
Rachel W.October 17, 2011
Get a bunch of friends together, call in advance, and indulge in the Big Pig Gig. It won't disappoint.
Carlos BorgesJune 1, 2011
Kansas City Sweet and sticky spare ribs, Burnt Ends Beans, and Cheesy Corn. All awesome!
Nancy HeOctober 15, 2014
Great deal. Sides are good. Brisket and ribs are ok.
