Exclusive Dinosaur beers (ape hanger ale and smoked porter) are great!
Brian FehdSeptember 2, 2013
They don't take reservations for less than 6 so send someone in advance to put in your name & hang at the bar.

Lisa WilliamsJuly 11, 2013
Sooooooo good! The potato salad and the wings are amazing!!!!!
Christen R. - DivasandDorks.comMay 29, 2014
If you arrive early (before your entire party) be prepared to wait & not be seated until they arrive. Dumbest rule ever 😒
Charles .February 26, 2013
Brisket melts in your mouth.....Ribs are good too. Good Service
Mark HaynesOctober 4, 2012
This place is amazing. Check out the brisket and salt potatoes.
Jeffrey ShawMarch 19, 2016
The skirt steak with fries and macaroni.
YukoMay 31, 2012
Try the Texas Brisket with pickled jalapeños with a side of curried succotash!
Norman EllisJune 22, 2016
Not blown away by the food here. I'll stick to John Brown Smokehouse in LIC for my BBQ.
SaraDecember 15, 2014
Dino BBQ was the best for a while but Mighty Quinn's is better - hands down no question. Your money is better spent at MQ's. The service here is bad and the food isn't good enough to make up for it.
AlisonJune 26, 2010
The smothered brisket sandwich? Divine. And perfect for those of us on a tight budget. Also, GET THE SALT POTATOES. You'll thank me.
Kyle SiskeyJuly 11, 2011
Pulled pork is great, but get the sweet potatoes. This place puts other NYC BBQ places to shame.
Sandip PatelAugust 19, 2014
Ok ribs, wings with tango wango sauce is delicious
Ray Perea KuriMarch 20, 2016
Good ribs. Not the best I have ever tried, but fairly good.
Rent the RunwayMay 12, 2011
Get the ribs and mac and cheese. This will be the BEST BBQ you've ever had!
Tyr LegendNovember 3, 2013
Great place. I don't remember what I got lol.. But it was awesome
ZephanApril 20, 2013
They serve amazing ribs, wings and a plethora of diabetes.
Joe KwonJuly 18, 2010
Dude, you have to get the wings. The ribs are not the best (I think Hill Country's better), but the wings are awesome. Garlic chipotle!
calieb gonzalezFebruary 25, 2015
Mac and cheese! Ribs are good too!
Rich GallagherSeptember 6, 2011
The Ribs get the hype, but try their Wings too - they may be the best in NYC.

Bbq chicken On the Food Network’s Best Thing I Ever Ate

The BBQ smoke is so pervasive that even the bathroom smells delicious!
NinjmaticApril 23, 2012
For sides the BBQ beans with pork is the way to go!!!
HorrorFixationJune 6, 2010
The best BBQ ever!!!!!! Good Blues on Saturday night live bands and it's the only place that reminds me of New Orleans =)
EvanJanuary 16, 2013
Been here 5+ times
You must eat all of the meat and drink whiskey.
Matt MelfordJanuary 1, 2011
Wango tango wings are unreal. Chili on the half shell and buckets of tecate are about as easy as it gets.
Anne CzernekJuly 4, 2012
The brisket tops the pork. Ape Hanger Ale is an excellent side.
Joshua JohnsonMarch 20, 2012
Get anything and you'll be hooked! Go to all three locations and call yourself a champ
Jeremy WhippleOctober 13, 2012
Order anything on the menu. It's all good.

Michael CFebruary 17, 2012
Been here 5+ times
Not the hugest selection of vegetarian options but the sides are delicious enough to give it a shot!
