The DBC owners do it again! We finally made it to the Beast and the experience was wonderful from top to bottom. They continue to deeply care about great service and creative and delicious food. Everything on the menu looked so good so we got the platter to split - it says for 3-4 people but it's def for the latter end. There were 3 of us who went with an appetite and we still took at least 2 servings home with us. We were also pleasantly surprised to learn it was happy hour when we arrived (3-5pm at bar and tables) so we got to enjoy 1/2 price house cocktails which are delicious. The beer selection is up there with the best also. The music and decor is witty (Walkens Welcome-legendary) and fun also. Love this place- cannot wait to be back to try the brunch now!! read more

So bad! Grease. Great. Grease. The Smashburger was gross. The salad was bad. I mean, how do you make a bad salad? Greasy, re-heated French fries. No ambiance. They need a new decorator. Hard pass on this place. read more

The ribs were incredible! Everything was delicious and very flavorful. I don't know what was on the ribs but it was out of this world!!!

The food here was delicious. We had the Beast platter, 1/2 lb brisket, 1/2 lb pulled pork, 6 wings, 1/2 rack of some kind of delicious Korean ribs, 3 different sausages and ghost pepper tacos on the side. Don't be afraid of the ghost pepper dishes. The chef here knows how to add the heat and not over do it. IMO, anyone giving a bad review, just doesn't appreciate smoked BBQ. read more

Beast - a platter of meat, bread, pickles, and pickles - Bars Near Me - Fishkill, New York

Went to the Beast recently with my wife, son and daughter in law . This was our first time there. Three of us got smoked brisket on a roll with curly fries and one had the pulled pork on a roll. also with fries. We all had specialty drinks. The food was a good B+ and the drinks were an A. The server was nice but the service was slow. The interior was ok but small, not many tables. Prices are average..... i would recommend the Beast and I am planning on going back. read more

Service was great. Very attentive and wonderful sense of humor. Food was fantastic. Had two appetizers wings and boa sandwich amazing. Beware of the ghost pepper sauce very good. And the endless bourbon whiskey and tequila list. Having a bourbon tasting flight would be a great addition to sample the many selections. read more

Delicious! Excellent barbecue, and some of the best smoked baked beans I've ever had. Loved the curly fries, too, and the vibes--chill, great music, and good service. Will definitely be back. read more

Food was delicious. I had the gyro with a side of kimchi slaw. Soo good, can't wait to come back

Great vibe, awesome beer selection, average BBQ. The brisket gyro sounded unique, however the flavors just did not go together. The tzatziki was a thick consistency with a predominately Greek yogurt-forward flavor rather than a creamy blended tzatziki of cucumber, garlic and dill that I am familiar with. The smoked wings didn't quite have the smokiness I imagined. Blue cheese however was awesome! read more

Great place! But a little small The food & portions were awesome the crowd was lively and upbeat the service was great. Only complaints - the place was kind of chilly it needs some heat. Also in the restroom was a laughably tiny garbage container. During our dinner I noticed some beautiful looking people so it's a great hot spot in my opinion. I noticed the servers saying "of course" to our every request. read more

We decided to eat inside because it was humid and in the 90s that evening, but when we got inside the A/C was almost nonexistent and the air quite stuffy, the staff were all working up a sweat. The table area was small and crowded, but it was clean and modern. It took awhile to get our drinks, but unfortunately they didn't have any unsweetened iced tea. The appetizer was a tall pile of nachos in a small tray with refried beans and brisket, delicious but really messy. The Texas style brisket dinner was tender, juicy and delicious, but the Mac and cheese that came with it was starchy. The cappuccinos were served lukewarm, a disappointment. We never got the banana pudding that was ordered, we attributed it to the place being very noisy. The prices are decent and the portions generous. The one unisex bathroom was horrid, the floor was sticky and wet. The service is good, just a bit slow. We will go back, it will avoid hot days as well as not using the bathroom. read more

Inventive, interpretation of southern BBQ. If you go for the "meals" expect to take food home. Sandwiches are more reasonably priced. Food is good - creative. Place is small so make reservations if you are a large party (5+). It's got a huge bar for the solo eaters and cocktails set. Good news is it's walking distance from 4 other restaurants of similar status so you can definitely get dinner in that part of town. read more

Food was not very good. Only servers bar food. Not a good place to go for intimate dining.

Excellent service, not so good food. We had heard about this place from the radio when a couple dj's were discussing it on air. It sounded good and thought we'd give it a try. Outside was nearly full so we sat inside where it was pretty empty. Our server was fantastic. She had a great energy, was funny, and quick to get us anything needed. Unfortunately the food was just not good. We tried the brisket sandwich and half the brisket served was so burnt it couldn't be chewed or even cut with a knife. The kitchen replaced it but still failed with a chewy (but at least chewable) bland replacement. Tried the pulled pork sandwich. It too was a massive failure. It's a giant pile of pulled pork so dry it literally keeps the shape of the container it was dumped out of! Then it's topped with a dribble of bbq sauce and the world's driest, saltiest kimchi which in itself is a weirdly bad combination. The result is dry and salty leaving your mouth feel like a desert. I felt bad there was so much food left so I got a take out container but then realized no one in the house would eat it, so literally threw it in the trash as soon as we got home. The pork dish wasn't the only mixed up creation we tried . We ordered several other items, all flawed conceptually and in flavor but I don't want to drag this review out any longer. Trust me, skip this place. read more

We were looking for a new brunch spot and since my boyfriend and I were off this Sunday we headed to Beast. The menu was limited but it had poached eggs with hollandaise sauce so that sold us. We walked in and took a seat at the bar, not one person acknowledged us. We actually joked that maybe we were invisible! Finally the bartender said hi and we ordered drinks. Ordered food but then was told they ran out of hollandaise... it was 1pm. The hours are 10 to 3 on Sundays.... how can you "run" out of something..how about make some more?? We ended up picking something else but probably should have left. The sausage gravy...no sausage. The biscuit...hard. The poached eggs were perfect but at that point it didn't matter. The pork sandwich was huge but the slaw needed to be chopped more. Overall we wouldn't go back, not worth it. Hopefully they work out the kinks and not rum out of items during a 5 hour brunch. read more

The worst thing a good bar can do is measure shots. Glass of wine was 5 ounces in a small glass for $10 and mixed drinks are 1 ounce in a tall glass. The place had a nice atmosphere, very clean, and staff was friendly. Menu is OK if you like barbecue, ruebens and beef brisket. not much else to choose from. I would highly recommend they stop measuring shots and give a decent drink. And if you're going to serve inexpensive wine, at least give a decent glass. read more

Delicious food! Everything was great, service was great (not that we expected anything less we are super fans of dutchess biercafé) We loved the corn bread too. Id love to come back in the summer for outdoor dining! read more

The food is next level good here. The Peruvian chicken is amazing. We went for brunch yesterday and ordered the BLT, smokehouse and pancakes. My whole family enjoyed every bite. The chicken wings are also the best chicken wings in town. We adore the staff and owners. Everyone is friendly and kind. It's small but has very cool vibe. read more

First time at Beast tonight. What a wonderful place!!! Great food, kind and attentive staff and great drinks!!! Everything was delicious and can't wait to go back again!! Thank you for an amazing and relaxing dinner!! read more

I live in town and was waiting to come check this place out. Popped in on Friday evening and the place was busy. Not much seating so the gentleman at the door said we could wait for 20-25 minutes for a table and stand to have a drink if we'd like, so we did. The music was very low, you could barely hear it. It would have been nice to have it a bit louder. The bar seats were taken so we stood up at the end and had a drink. Now 30 mins passes and no table. We were offered a seat at the bar and we were hungry so we took it. We ordered wings, kimchi, pernil, rice & maduros (sweet plantains). The wings and pernil wet cooked nicely and had a smoky flavor. The rice was very mushy and lacked flavor. Maduros should have a sweet flavor that lacked. I'd recommend eating the proteins but the sides not so much. Waitresses at the tables seemed friendly and attentive. Waitress at the bar was very dry and did not smile at all. I was hoping for a better experience. I've frequented the Bier Cafe which is the sister restaurant and have always had great service and food. I'm hoping it was just a bad night for them as it would be great to have another nice place to eat at in town. I'd like to give it another chance and maybe try brunch. read more

Was very excited to try this place. Was super hungry and despite the high prices, we were going to order a few things and try this new place out. Upon arriving we awkwardly stood at the door waiting to be told we could sit. There is no room at the door at all when you enter. If there was any more than 4 of us we would have had to stand in the open door way. Someone finally greeted us and said we can make our way to the corner table. The tables were so close together I had to side step through the tables and my butt STILL touched the top of some man's table as I was squeezing by.. awkward. We sat for a few minutes and finally someone came over and said "just so you know we are only serving happy hour food" and handed us a sheet of paper the size of a cocktail napkin with I believe three choices. 2 appetizers and a pulled pork sandwich. Then said "I have one pulled pork sandwich left" it was 4:30 and dinner menu started at 5. We would have waited but again we were so hungry and excited to eat a meal, we went elsewhere. I have never experienced being only allowed happy hour choices when not seated at the bar. I feel most people come to a restaurant and sit at the bar for a quick bite and drink, but at a table for an actual meal. Definitely disappointing but our server was kind and understood why we were leaving. Wish we could have tried the food but for the prices and the terrible ambiance .. I sure hope it would have been incredible tasting dishes. read more
