Mighty Quinn's Barbeque

This was one of the BBQ spots I tried in NYC and I absolutely loved it! I went pretty late at night so the meat had been cooked a while back and was just sitting there. But honestly, it was still super tender and fell right off the bone hence why I give it a 5/5. I know if I went there earlier in the day it would have been even better but I honestly loved my experience and the portions are huge. Would go again!

The store is cool, the music is good vibe. The Chikpolesos Chicken Rice bowl was a bit spicy, so my son ordered Turkey. You can choose from the 12.95 dollar bowl at lunchtime, two protein, two side, and two pickles. It is close to the fence station, so it is convenient to go on a train after lunch. The restaurant was really cool.

I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with a side of fries and a side of barbecue beans. It was all delicious. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was just the right portion and extremely tasty. This is just far enough outside of Times Square that it doesn’t seem to be overly crowded with tourists so eating dinner here is manageable.

Stopped by this place while walking in the city and was very surprised at the quality of the food. Love that you can order by yourself on a screen, there wasn’t a lot of people in the restaurant but it took a long time to get our order (staff talking with each other without really acknowledging the customers waiting). Food was very tasty but a bit cold. Tried the Mac and cheese & the honey chicken sandwich, would recommend ! The pull pork sandwich was apparently very flavourful as well! Would definitely come back !

I was exploring BBQ places in NYC and this spot ended up being my favorite. I arrived a bit late at night so the meat had been cooked earlier, but it was still incredibly soft and literally came right off the bone. The taste was amazing and the texture was perfect. The quality alone made me give it a full five stars. I keep thinking if I went earlier in the day it would have been even fresher. The portions were huge and the whole meal was very satisfying. Definitely planning to go again.

Mighty Quinn’s Barbeque is a celebrated name in the world of smoked meats, blending the tradition of authentic, slow-cooked barbecue with a modern, casual dining experience. Founded by pitmaster Hugh Mangum, the restaurant began as a hit at Brooklyn’s Smorgasburg food market and quickly gained a devoted following, eventually expanding to multiple locations across New York and beyond. The heart of Mighty Quinn’s appeal lies in its commitment to quality and simplicity. Meats are seasoned minimally, allowing the natural flavors and the signature wood-smoked aroma to shine. The brisket is a standout—perfectly marbled, tender, and rich, with a flavorful bark that needs no sauce to impress. The massive “Brontosaurus Rib” is a showstopper, slow-cooked until the meat practically melts off the bone, while the pulled pork offers a perfect balance of smokiness and juiciness. Beyond the main cuts, sides such as burnt-end baked beans, pickled vegetables, and creamy coleslaw complement the meats beautifully, adding freshness and variety to the plate. The casual, industrial-chic interiors, featuring reclaimed wood and bright, open spaces, make it a comfortable spot for both quick lunches and laid-back dinners. Mighty Quinn’s has built a reputation not just for great barbecue, but for consistency, speed, and friendly service. For anyone seeking a satisfying, flavorful barbecue experience that captures both the art of traditional smoking and the ease of modern dining, Mighty Quinn’s Barbeque remains a top contender.

I might be a bit biased since American cuisine is my favorite, but this place truly stands out. Amid all the tourist traps, it’s a gem. I tried the brisket, turkey, pulled pork, and short ribs, and everything was fantastic. While there are BBQ spots where you can get premium smoked beef or steaks for over $100 per person, this place offers great quality at much more reasonable prices. On top of that, the staff are incredibly kind and helpful, which isn’t always common in restaurants in Midtown Manhattan. Highly recommended!

Love this spot! Found it walking around in Times Square. I’m always impressed every time with the inviting atmosphere it provides. After walking for long periods of time, this spot has provided so much relief. With relief in the space, even more so with the food. It was absolutely the best bbq i’ve ever tasted. There are so many options to choose from the meat and sides, with the broccoli salad being my fav. The staff is always making sure we are taken care of to our fullest satisfaction. 12/10 recommend. Consider this place in times square!
