    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!

    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.

    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.

    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:)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Chicken wings were real good wings. Meat platter was great!! The rice and beans so so. Great fried artichoke you should share.

    Its like Southern tapas with a small degree of Asian fusion. Get the ribs, you'll be glad you did.

    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

    Goats neck is incredible - very rich, share it with your friends or else you'll run out of room to try the other stuff.

    Pumpkin waffles aren't just seasonal here people! You also may get a cavity but it'd be worth it.

    Watermelon gimlet is a must in the summer. There will be a round two and round three of drinks, I can guarantee that.
