Description

Behind brick walls and wooden accents, the room has a lived-in feel, complete with big screens and a high noise level of a crowd in full swing. If you are making the subway trip north, the draw is the menu of slow-smoked staples like pulled pork, cornbread, and short ribs. The bar area is consistently packed and service can be hit-or-miss, but the friendly staff and a finishing cookie bar dessert keep the atmosphere easygoing.
