No wonder! I don't think it was always that way though. I think they changed ownership a couple of years ago. Either way, its nooo good.

I've been there a few times. Nice guy. There is a review up (I believe) at pigtrip.net.
In the three times that I have been there, the food has gotten progressively better each time. It's not at the level that Willies was at (not that much on LI was), but it's certainly heads and shoulders above Tennessee Jacks. I haven't been to Bobbiques' so I can't compare. They do have a full gluten free menu, which is interesting. Eric

Worst BBQ place I've been to here on LI. Go to Smokin Al's instead. You wont regret it.

Smokin' Al's has good sides... but the BBQ meats at Smokin Al's leave a lot to be desired, especially actual smoke flavor (this per my last two visits, one of them just three days ago)

I wasn't able to find a smoke flavor over the nutmeg. Or maybe its allspice. For all I know its cinnamon. What ever it is he likes way too much of it. The Brisket nachos are a cool idea and really tasted great....if only for a little less nutmeg I'd go back. Its not traditional BBQ in any sense.
Why not go to RUB in East Meadow guys. Top on my list. We have been back three or four times since the soft opening and its great each time. Gotta order a pound of burnt ends when you sit down. With your drink order them. Its probably the best appetizer you can ever have. I suggest the sauced ribs and the dry St. Louis. The mild sauce is good. We get the Baron and just eat. The 5 of us on a 50 plate and the burnt ends and you are fine. The kids love the lemonade.
