The Hot Spot BBQ & Grill

Located in Fresh Meadows, this eatery has seating for about 35 people in a room where two large screens keep sports playing. The service format is direct: you order at the counter and wait at your table, which comes pre-stocked with sauces. Beyond the standard grill fare, the kitchen turns out kebabs, wings, and a well-regarded fried chicken sandwich. It offers a straightforward, fairly priced option for kosher dining, characterized by thick burgers and quick service.
