Get the Brisket sandwich (only available on Tuesdays) topped with house-made smoked ricotta, red cabbage, and served on an English muffin. Read more

Fun little casual spot in EV. Drinks are good, especially the watermelon gimlet. Get the brisket jerky, shrimp chips and charcuterie platter. Next time I gotta try the fried duck & waffle!

Beans/rice and ribs are amazing! Wings are ok but you could pass on it. Their beignets are perfect sugar puffs. FYI it's fairly small. #eastvillage #foodie #french #nyc #nomnom #foodporn #delicious

My favorite neighborhood joint. LOVE the beef short ribs, mussels in chili oil & chicken wings. The food are deliciously messy so maybe not ideal for 1st dates but ideal for everything else.

One of the best. Check their "Bites" menu for the Deez Nuts - highly recommended. Their Red Beans ‘n Rice are exceptional... true Southern cooking and perhaps the best to be found here in NYC.

Goat neck rice, jerk chicken, and the roasted duck salad were perfect. Delicious cocktails too. They have a projector that screens old school movies onto the back wall. Would come back for sure!

Goat's neck curry... There are no words so just stuff your face with it and fall in love. The ribs were also delicious. Great service, too. If in doubt, ask what they recommend.

Smoked Brisket Hash is hearty and delicious and great to split between two people. Get the pumpkin waffle as well to satisfy that sweet tooth!

I had they wings i kept hearing about, they lived up to hype very juicy not overcooked well marinated loved it so much i ordered it twice , i have to come back & try the brisket

Come here on Brisket Tuesdays! Also come here for the goat neck. They serve whole smoked hare, whole smoked pig & New England clambakes when you order one-week in advance.
Andy RosenbergApril 13, 2015
Great food, great music, great service. First timers should go with the pickles, chicken wings, Goat's Neck, and beignets in that order.

Smoke mussels, okra to start, then share the smoke whole goat neck (moist, fatty yet not overbearingly so, falls off the bone), served over moist coconut rice and a mild yellow curry.

I loved this place, The food, music and everything. But they didn t give me a table just because I was alone. 5 tables were available for almost 2 hours. I ate at the bat. Make reservations. 6.

We ordered about half the menu, and though everything was great, the Smoked Duck (small plate) & Red Beans ‘N Rice (w/ smoked lamb breast + seasoned coconut rice) definitely stood out as the tastiest.

crispy pig ear salad and pickles are so good. yakamein soup was delicious and interesting. cornbread was so fluffy.

French-Creole. Spicy beef jerky juiced with fish sauce, North Fork cherrystone clams served with a kaffir-ham granita, the aforementioned pig ear wraps with hot sauce and pickled cabbage Read more

Good cocktails, great meats : pig ears, super fatty brisket sandwich and ribs... Lots of food, but totally worth it :)
Georgia LuddeckeOctober 21, 2018
The goat neck was fantastic. I was a little turned off by how slow the service was, but will likely be coming back either for the goat neck or to try the smoked watermelon

Tremendous food flavors. Very spicy corn. Delicious pickle jar. Wonderful wings. Cozy--with a little bit of rambunctiousness--atmosphere. Duck'n delicious. Haha.

This Eatery means serious business. Transparently sourced local ingredients designed and prepared by people who are obviously excited about real, good food. Bone marrow & oysters, Goat neck, Brisket:)
Serious EatsMarch 14, 2013
Though some of the Asian fusion food here is a bit overwrought, small plates like chicken wings, house pickles, and crispy pig's ears are worth sharing.
Cole KennedyJuly 8, 2019
Good place to hang with a few beers and eat on the sidewalk patio when it’s nice out, or inside at the bar when it’s not.
Melissa D.December 1, 2013
Delicious. Not a word I use lightly but from charred head-on shrimp, duck salad, to wings or even their sole dessert of beignets it rang true. Eat here. Often.
Meg FarmerApril 30, 2015
Love this chill spot in the east village. Good beer, good eats. Go for pig ears for sure. Jerky is also tasty, but on the spicy side.
David HuDecember 5, 2014
Goat neck is the way to go here. Amazing. Mussels also great choice for starter
Christina DucruetOctober 14, 2012
Complex cocktails and clever menu make for an adventurous dinner to share with friends. Get the white buffalo to drink and try the pigs ear. Delicious!
Jessica FerrucciOctober 9, 2013
An unexpectedly amazing spot. Tasty good paired with great drinks. I came by on a Monday night and was pleasantly surprised by live music!

Chef Will Horowitz's turkey double down is a thing of beauty: roasted bird meat piled between two latkes, along with cornbread-oyster stuffing, gravy and huckleberry jam.
Matthew CaldecuttApril 10, 2016
There are more meats on the dinner menu, but the pumpkin waffle with fried duck and a side of bacon more than makes up for it.
Amaury TouchyourTrililiApril 7, 2018
Chicken wings were real good wings. Meat platter was great!! The rice and beans so so. Great fried artichoke you should share.
Tian XieFebruary 24, 2013
Its like Southern tapas with a small degree of Asian fusion. Get the ribs, you'll be glad you did.
Leah SchallerApril 4, 2015
Goat neck was delicious! Something I wouldn't normally order - but so glad I did! Really want to return to try the brisket
Alison MJuly 19, 2013
Happy Hour best bet! Oysters and cheap beer/wine. For a few weeks in the summer they have crawfish! Don't miss out! July is the month
Giovanni D'PalmaJune 15, 2015
Wow! The goat curry was out of this world. Must try! The ribs are also excellent.

My favorite neighborhood spot is even better on Brisket Tuesdays. Don't miss out.

Goats neck is incredible - very rich, share it with your friends or else you'll run out of room to try the other stuff.
Alyxa LeaseOctober 13, 2014
Pumpkin waffles aren't just seasonal here people! You also may get a cavity but it'd be worth it.
Edmund BoeyNovember 26, 2015
The goat neck over rice is amazing! Coming back for sure!🐐❤️👌
Marideny TavarezJanuary 3, 2016
They have a goats head on the menu 😯. My fave was the crispy pig ears. Very spicy but so delicious.
ValerieApril 24, 2016
Goats neck is delicious and easily shared by 3 or 4 people.
AliciaMay 20, 2014
Watermelon gimlet is a must in the summer. There will be a round two and round three of drinks, I can guarantee that.
CarolineMarch 14, 2016
Get the Pastrami sandwich. Made from the deckle of the brisket and served after 10:30 p.m. nightly. Best of VV
JeffreyOctober 4, 2013
Available only on "brisket day" (Tuesday) after 7p, Brisket sandwich features smoked ricotta-covered brisket that itself has been smoked for 18hrs over oak.

Goat neck is a must! Also the ribs and wings.
Kev SkinnyAugust 13, 2014
Special drinks...ehhh. but load up on small plates any you wont be sorry. Wings and pig ear lettuce wraps are a fucking must try.
L. S.January 28, 2018
Goat Neck for the win! Definitely enough to share.
Jason O'BrienNovember 20, 2014
Wonderful service, awesome food. I can't stress it enough. Also, the bone marrow was AWESOME.
UyennieMarch 22, 2015
cocktails and ribs were ridiculously good. i didn't love the goat neck (too salty for me), but worth a try
Lauren SmithJanuary 16, 2015
Goat neck worth it. All cocktails sort of taste the same...
