Description

This Astoria spot focuses on old-school smoking methods, sourcing pasture-raised, hormone-free meats for its plates and animal burgers. The space features a full bar built from reclaimed Brooklyn water tower cedar, pouring draft beers, cocktails, and a selection of whiskey and moonshine. While diners praise the generous portions and group-friendly happy hour, some note occasional consistency issues with food temperature. Alongside the BBQ classics, the menu features comforting sides like queso served with crispy tortilla cheese.
