This was easily one of the best steaks I’ve tried. I’ve had similar preparations in many places, but this one truly stood out.
From the moment I walked in, the aroma of smoke and perfectly cooked meat immediately caught my attention and set the tone for the experience.
The atmosphere is very pleasant and comfortable, making the whole visit even more enjoyable.
I left very satisfied and will definitely be coming back again. ❤️

WHAT DO THEY DO TO THIS NACHO CHEESE DIP TO MAKE IT SO PERFECT?! It’s perfect. I’d never order this of my own will but my friend ordered it and what a great decision that was.
The cornbread is great.
All the meat is great.
A 1/2 lb of meat per person is definitely enough, especially if you get 1-2 sides.
This isn’t the cheapest spot. 2 sides and 2 1/2 lbs of meat was $75 (fed 2 people and was a lot of food).
I LOVE that they have Stiegl! And they have special really great mugs for the radlers.
Lots of seating. There was a long line on a Saturday at 7pm and it moved slow.

Absolute hands down best BBQ joint in NY and perhaps best I’ve ever had. All the hype about Hometown is on point. Super casual and super friendly staff. You have the choice of both indoor and outdoor seating.
Every item on their menu is to die but the ultimate is the pastrami sandwich. YES you heard me right! This sandwich is even better than Katz’s. More bark, more tender, juicier and let’s not forget the buttered rye bread.
Bottom line, there is not a single item on their menu that is not worth devouring.

10/10 experience. Food, drinks and service, seriously all outstanding. I like the laid-back atmosphere and the fact that they have good quality napkins. Meat was beautifully cooked and so flavorful. The sides? Perfection. As a southwestern girl I could dream of nothing better. And they were playing steely dan

The brisket and ribs are melt-in-your-mouth and fall-off-the-bone and juicy. Perfect American BBQ. The pastrami bacon is worth it and full of char flavor. We loved the cornbread and the mac and cheese. Atmosphere is very southern. A bit pricey but definitely the best BBQ you can find anywhere in and near the city.

Coming from the UK it is incredibly difficult to find a quality, top end BBQ place. Hometown Bar-B-Que is phenomenal!
My wife and I made this a key stop on our trip to NYC and I can fully recommend it to any BBQ enthusiasts or anyone who loves BBQ food!

Super fan spot. In the top circle of NYC-based BBQ establishments. Daily list of standard and special BBQ fare, by the lb or in sandwich form. Good sides.
Ribs and Pulled Pork I give an 8/10, brisket at 7/10, beans 8.5/10, corn bread is really interesting 8.5/10. Other sides are a 7/10.
Overall comment is that I wish there was a bit more smoke flavor on everything, and the sides were a bit on the fatty side. But it’s very good BBQ.
Great atmosphere, and excellent vibe. Live music put everything over the top. Totally awesome scene and energy. Drinks are also very good, homemade cocktails and all the mixers and garnishes taste fresh.
Would absolutely recommend.

This was my third time here and for some reason the wait in line was for 40 minutes (I wanted some BBQ and happened to be in the area so I waited ♀️). I got a $22 brisket sandwich that was hard to chew and the meat was not hot. The hometown bbq at industry city has always been good when I’ve gone! Their food was hot and the brisket tender with the right amount of fat.
So i’m giving up on this location Every time I come here the brisket dissapoints.

Highly recommend this place! I hate white meat because it can be dry but I cannot express enough how PERFECT the chicken breast was here. The Korean Ribs were delightful- the perfect mix between sweet, a mild kick and the crushed peanuts on top just added to this. The Mac and cheese was very decadent and filled with cheesy flavor. We also got the brisket dip which was amazing!!!! Very thick and with a mild kick as well, I cannot express this enough- you need to try this place!!
Just know when you go in you will need to order at the cash register to order. They’ll give you a table number. You will have to self serve plates, cutlery and water.

This place was rated the number one BBQ spot in the area, so we made the trip out from downtown Brooklyn expecting something special. Unfortunately, it ended up being one of the most disappointing BBQ experiences I’ve had.
The brisket was shockingly dry, so much so that I didn’t even bother finishing it. The regular spare ribs were not much better. The cornbread was excellent, I’ll give them that, but the mac and cheese was completely forgettable.
For brisket, spare ribs, a small mac and cheese, and cornbread, the total came out to 67 dollars. For that price, the quality was nowhere near acceptable. Definitely not worth the trip or the hype.
