We went for their soft open at the Washington Heights/Uptown Crossing location.. Decent space and nice people were working. They have a few stools in front of each window for seating. Taking your food down to Vennture and grabbing a beer/coffee is also an option. There are some drinks in the cooler. We both got brisket 1 meat dinners. The greens are only available on the weekends. Sides pictured are mqc n cheese, dirty rice and potato salad
I am a macaroni connoisseur, and it always disappoints me when barbecue places don’t nail the sides. They put hours into smoking the meat and for me the sides always lack “oomph”. The macaroni had this cheesy “peppery” taste that was unlike anything I’ve ever tasted, I wasn’t a fan of it. The candied yams were so sweet I felt like I was getting the “sugas” as the older people would say. The brisket itself was good, had smoke rings and everything but wasn’t as tender as I would have like it to been. However the flavor was there, so it’s a small win for me. The service was good so that made up for the sub par tasting sides. I would go back if I really, really had a taste for brisket and couldn’t one make it or two get it from a Metro Market that also smokes/grills brisket.
I had a taste for barbecue so I decided to try this place out. I ordered the “Mosley” which is 1.5lbs of meat & 2 pints of sides & bread. Brisket & rib tips was my meats & Macaroni and cheese, greens & sweet potatoes was my sides. The brisket is decent but dry the ribs are flavorless with paprika on it. The macaroni is made with penne noodles & jalapeño nacho cheese. The greens had no flavor & the sweet potatoes was probably the best. I wanted some dessert so I ordered the banana pudding which was bland. I spent about $60 for all of my food which was not worth it at all.
Fast and friendly service, at 3:00pm on a week day-what I wanted was sold out so I ordered a rib dinner with two sides and jalapeño corn bread. The ribs were meaty and seasoned well. The meat came easily off the bone and was delicious. The meat was so good, I had to think about whether or not I wanted sauce on my ribs. Well after eating two bones, I said what the heck and tried. They provided two different types of sauces-sauces were just okay-just a little too sweet. The corn bread was light and sweet even though it said jalapeño. I enjoyed my sides, the sweet potatoes were good. We’ll be back-I want to try and get the rib tip dinner. Gonna have to strategize how to get there to place my order-no call in orders.
Best brisket I've ever had! So tender, flavorful, the sides PERFECTLY compliment the meats. Service was quick and kind. Definitely coming back on a regular basis!! The beef and the chicken are halal!
