I really enjoyed the corn bread. The coleslaw was sweet (has apples in it) which wasn't really my thing but it doesn't mean it's not good! Highly recommend try this place

The two meats were good, not great. The turkey breast was drier than I was hoping. I was disappointed by the chilaquiles because no where on the menu did it mention the chips were tossed in BBQ sauce instead of salsa. I would skip this dish next time. The sticky ribs were tasty. Still a fun spot to visit, especially in summertime when you can take advantage of the outdoor space and extensive cocktail list. The churro ice cream sandwich is exceptional - highly recommend.

When I compare these flavors to Newark BBQ, you'll realize Newark does not season at all. We ordered the Lemon and Garlic chicken. It was moist and seasoned to perfection. Even the fries were seasoned. Don't forget to ask for the garlic sauce. Dining room was clean and customer service was great.

YEEHAWWWWW! Save a horse, ride a cowboy!…read more Boots & Bones brings a piece of Nashville to downtown Jersey City! This is a restaurant/bar that serves American BBQ and Southern soul food in a country-inspired environment. We visited late on a Saturday evening and easily got a table for 2 without reservations. I was surprised it wasn't crowded... maybe because it was the weekend after Christmas? I really liked the rustic "Wild West"-themed interior! The space has neon cowboy decor, barn wood furnishings, Western wall art, saddles, dark lighting, etc. One thing felt completely off, though... to my disappointment, they didn't play ANY country music that night!!! :( Booooo. There's a large bar, plenty of TV screens, booth seating, high top tables, and even a selfie machine! The ambiance is fun, lively, and casual. It's a good spot for a date, a girls night out, celebrations, or for watching sports. They also host events like live music performances and line dancing. The menu is a blend of classic Southern and Southwestern (Tex-Mex) dishes. The most popular items are the signature BBQ meats (slow-cooked beef brisket, chopped pork shoulder, smoked chicken, St. Louis-style ribs), brisket sandwiches, birria tacos, & quesadillas. There are endless options for drinks like themed cocktails, wine, beer, shots, and seltzers. They offer plenty of deals including Happy Hour Mon-Fri until 7pm, daily specials/discounts, NFL game day specials, and a brunch on Sat & Sun. What I ordered: *3 Smoked Brisket Birria Tacos $17 (includes oaxaca cheese, shredded brisket, onions, & cilantro with a side of consomme) - Oaxaca cheese + smoked brisket = perfection in every bite! The tortillas were fresh and soft. There was a generous portion of meat in each taco. The brisket was juicy, beefy, and packed with flavor! I loved how gooey and creamy the cheese was. The only disappointment was the consomme - it was bland, watered down, and under seasoned... It's a shame, because when made well, it has a rich and deeply savory flavor. On the bright side, they gave me green & orange salsa that absolutely SLAPPED - both sauces added some tang and spice to the tacos! *18 Hour Hickory Smoked Beef Brisket $26 (includes fries, dill pickles, coleslaw, and toast) - Slow and steady wins the race... I got 5 juicy slabs of brisket, cooked low and slow. It was tender, smoky, and well seasoned with a texture that melted in your mouth! While it was delicious, it didn't stand out compared to other BBQ spots. Do NOT compare this to authentic Texas BBQ. *Corn Bread with honey butter $6 - This is different from traditional corn bread that's usually served as a square slice; they give you 5-6 pieces in the shape of a mini muffin. They were buttery and lightly sweet with a toasted corn flavor. The outside was slightly crispy while the inside was soft and crumbly. Although they were good, they could've been more moist. The sweet & salty honey butter dip definitely elevated the overall taste with its lightly whipped texture. I wouldn't order this again. The service was average, but could've been better. We had to wait for someone to greet and seat us since there wasn't a host/hostess when we arrived. Our server was friendly, but didn't check in on us frequently enough, so we had to flag him down ourselves. Overall, this place is worth a shot! The brisket is a must try. It may not be the best BBQ of your life, but the atmosphere and happy hour/daily deals make it worth a stop. P.S. There's a speakeasy and dancefloor downstairs... ;) (separate review to come)

JP didn't just run the bar at the beer hall. He made the whole afternoon. We had a big group,…read morefamilies, kids, grandparents, the whole mix. It was a full afternoon of food and drinks, and the kind of event where a lot of moving pieces have to come together for it to actually work. JP was the reason it worked. What stood out most wasn't the drinks. It was the kids. There were a lot of them, running around, excited, in the middle of everything. JP knew every single one of them by name before the afternoon was half over. Not in a performative way. He just made a point to learn who they were and made them feel like they belonged there as much as anyone else. He was checking in on them, getting them what they needed, keeping them engaged. Parents noticed. Everyone noticed. Beyond the kids, he was everywhere. Anticipating what people needed before they asked. Moving fast without ever seeming rushed. Making sure nobody was waiting, nobody was forgotten, and everybody was having a good time. The food, the drinks, the whole flow of the afternoon, it all ran smoothly because JP was paying attention to all of it. My sister-in-law's celebration was exactly what it was supposed to be. A big part of that is JP. If you are booking an event here, request him specifically. You will not regret it.​​​​​​​​​​​​

Sometimes the best finds happen when you're focused on family and stumble into excellence. The food is the real deal. Bold, authentic, and done with discipline. Every bite reflects craftsmanship and pride. No shortcuts. No hype. Just results. The open, spacious layout creates an atmosphere that's relaxed, energetic, and inviting--perfect for unwinding, connecting, and enjoying great food without feeling boxed in. It has that Brooklyn-meets-business-meets-community vibe that works. And the pastrami? Memorable. Elite.

Honestly the dining area was quite empty and I guess I could partially attribute it to snow, but it wasn't snowing when we got there. Maybe it was due to the long weekend, not sure. The place is huge though, tons of space so it felt weird being a bit empty, especially with a playoff game on. There was a private event though so perhaps that did make a difference. Anyhow, since we traveled around the south last summer, we wanted to get a little flavor of southern food this evening. We got our customary picked veggies to start off (good!) but then decided to order Hot Honey Glazed Carrots for an appetizer. The carrots were a bit off. It was somewhat difficult to eat. The carrots weren't fully steamed, with some pieces way tougher to eat than others. The yogurt was fine, but you don't really taste any honey and it was a bit too gooey to the point where it was hard to dip it properly. I wonder if the dip should've been separate from the carrots itself. I'm not sure. As for me, I got the Country Fried Oyster Mushroom Po'Boy. It was fine, but felt it was a little too dry... and honestly a little too simple. The fries were great, but felt like I was missing something. The cocktails, on the other hand, were great and saved the day. Maybe I'll enjoy this place a bit more during brunch, but was a bit disappointed with the dinner experience.
