Bidrage med feedbackFood was great and lunch special pricing was good in this time of inflation. The server was a bit uninvolved. It seemed like the manager turned up the heat and I thanked him as he walked past our table. It was a cold rainy day outside and didn't feel that warm inside. The room seems dark and could use maybe more lighting during the day. Pleasant experience all around.
If you're craving for good ol' American barbecue, then you can't go wrong in coming here to Bobbique. The St. Louis-style ribs are a must get! BBQ jumbo wings are also great, and the BBQ skewered shrimp will make you want a whole tray of them. Smoked sausage has that perfect snap, though it was a bit saltier for our palate. Pulled pork was excellent. We also got the sliced brisket tray, and it was super tender, melt-in-your-mouth good. The sides were okay accompaniments to the mains. The ambience was also on point for an American styled barbecue place. Apparently, there are sometimes live music featured as there is a stage set, but the day we went no musicians were on scene. Super friendly wait staff as well!! Highly recommended!
Somehow while traveling to eastern Long Island with my daughter for softball we were transported to somewhere reminiscent of the South. As soon as I saw the door handle on the front door, I said this place should be good. The live band playing some southern rock and blues perfected the atmosphere. I believe the band is there every Wednesday Simple set up inside with many high top tables with butcher paper for table clothes. Long bar on the left with plenty of room for friends to gather. Stage for live music in back left. Our waitress, Talia S. was phenomenal. I started out a bit concerned as brisket wasn't a choice for the meat selections when choosing multiple proteins in a platter. If you want brisket, it will have to be a separate meal. We always like to try multiple items to get an accurate assessment of our bbq endeavors. So ofcourse we had to order way too much for two to eat in one sitting. No worries as dinner is already done for tomorrow night. Some places have great brisket, others have great pulled pork or ribs. In my opinion, a great measure of how good a bbq place is, just try their cornbread and coleslaw. Luckily, that wasn't the case here. the cornbread was the only thing we didn't praise. We tried the burnt ends as an appetizer, brisket, pulled pork, smoked sausage (kielbasa), and St. Louis ribs . All the proteins were excellent. Great bark on all and the flavor was fantastic. Everything was moist. Many places have dried out pulled pork, sausage or brisket and they try to overcome that with a ton of sauce. Not the case here. Great moisture content in everything especially the ribs. The flavor is in the meats and not smothered in overbearing sauces.
While I'm not one whose much for eating off of metal trays and paper, the food here was really good. Better than Mission barbeque. I ate Soo much and still had so much to take home. I recommend the ribs. I prefer my sauce cooked on, but the smoked ribs with the dry rub was a really good experience. The problem I have with places like this is that the sauce is just store bought generic barbeque sauce in a squirt bottle on the table. I believe a barbeque spot should work on making a sauce that's exciting in some way. Doctor it up a bit, you know what I mean? Might get em that fifth star, hmm?
The food here has been good for years. I got the crispy BBQ salmon. The slight crunch and charred texture added a nice layer to the light and subtle flavor of the salmon. I expected it to be a little dry but it was still rich and buttery. They do dessert pretty well too. Still thinking about that chocolate cake, and it came with ice cream.
