The best part of tonight's meal is the friends that we were with. The "giant ribs" were a bit under cooked, a bit chewy and fatty. The side of salad and the mac and cheese were welcome but just the 10% of the 90% of what we were expecting. Although we were disappointed (and this was a costly eat out), we do enjoy the food here from experience. Tonight, not so good. Deserts were good and the beer was cold. Nice Irish coffees and cocktails throughout. read more

My family loves this place. We have visited both locations and the one in Suffern, NY is our favorite. They have a more extensive menu and typically have live music. This location also has outdoor dining during the warmer months. They have daily specials and this time we went on hot dog night. The hot dogs came out hot and were very flavorful. My kid really enjoyed the mac and cheese. They also have a good kids menu, a bunch of TV's and a nice beer/ cocktail list. I shared the chili special and ordered my typical go- to, the chicken and rib combo. All of the food hit the spot. read more

One thing that I've noticed is that Fink's reviewers have hit or miss experience. Mine was miss ... here we go: Having been to other BBQ restaurants, I have to say that I was under impressed with Fink's. After being seated, we waited 10 min for water (never a good sign). We ordered the gumbo as a starter, brisket with corn soufflé and veggies, and BBQ 1/2 chicken, ribs and pulled pork slider with burracho rice & beans and Quakie Tatties (mashed potatoes with duck crackling) for the mains. The gumbo was lukewarm but flavored well as one would expect. The roux presentation was beautiful: savory brown and the spices were noticeable but not overpowering. However, the undercooked rice was problematic and the same undercooked rice came with the burracho rice and beans. Unfortunately, the chicken was grossly overcooked (so dry) for both dark and white meat (BTW, we had to show the waitress we were lacking the dark meat on the original order). The ribs fared no better than the chicken as they were so dehydrated that I almost cried. The vegetables (broccoli and squash) were just overcooked - no excuse for this. The only redemption was the corn soufflé - absolutely excellent. So, this place is not one I'll return to after dropping $100+ for two people, which is surprising because a lunch meeting a few weeks earlier proved their sandwiches to be good. Hopefully, control on the smoker and the oven will improve the food quality, delivery and presentation in the future. read more

We haven't been to Finks in a bit so decided to stop in tonight. Get the gumbo! It has consistently been outstanding each visit. The ribs needed more time to obtain that fall off the bone tenderness. Great Smokey flavor but lacked seasoning. The Buffalo chicken sandwich was nice - I wish I remembered to order it grilled to save the calories for the AMAZING homemade chips. Don't even think of getting the fries when they serve these perfectly seasoned and crisped delectables. Sides were good! read more

Had a nice lake biking adventure with the fam today doing a loop around Greenwood Lake, and had to find a nice after-ride lunch spot. Found Fink's and headed there after our ride. Was modestly busy for covid times, but we still found parking and they had several tables still avail, so we were lucky. Will just list what I found to be pros / cons. Mostly all PROS. + for the good outdoor tables layout. Chill picnic tables with umbrellas for keeping in the shade. + they have an outdoor stage for live music, although we did 't go during a performance - they didn't have a beer/drinks menu so we had to just chat to find what was avail. All good but would be nice to have a list to choose from + BBQ options are LEGIT here. Brisket was good, and the dinosaur sized short rib is now my favorite thing. Got "cut 3" intentionally and was right on. Epic fatiness! - food came out in "takeout" bags and containers, was kind of annoying to take it all out again and initially cut that short rib with plastic fork and knife. Overall is a winning spot, will try to go again next time in the area for sure :-) read more

I am very disappointed with the new menu and shortened hours. Fink's was always my go to place. The food was really good and the staff very friendly. I would go for a great meal a beers at the bar or just for take out on the way home. So sad that the cheesesteaks are no longer on the menu because that was my favorite....and the wings. well, the wings are still on the menu but the batch I had last Thursday (10/31) were not as good as those I had previously. And the fries were soggy, not crisp like they used to be. the vibe has changed also, maybe it is the reduced hours and pared down menu but the usual energy was not there. I'm not sure that I'll go back unless things change. read more

Can never go wrong with this spot, always hits the spot. Meat was tender. Service is always good here. Parking a little challenge if you come during busy hours, but you'll have no problem if you dine at oddball times. Unless I'm in the area or headed past this area I make sure I stop here, just a little out of the way from where I am. read more

I'm torn. I really enjoy the food. (I do wish that beef short ribs were available all day). Today I went for lunch. Had the beef rib cheesesteak sandwich with Meunster... it was delicious! Yet I was still perplexed. I don't mind the credit card surcharge. Might not like it but okay, I get it. I am typically a 20% tipper. Good or so-so service, I do realize that wait staff are on a different pay scale, and this helps. I do like the convenience of the tip at different percentage levels being calculated on the receipt... Here's my gripe, and it might not seem like a big thing, but when you consider the surcharge for credit cards, it adds up. A TIP IS SUPPOSED TO BE CALCULATED ON THE SUB-TOTAL OF FOOD AND/OR BEVERAGE -- NOT THE TOTAL PLUS TAX AND SURCHARGE I didn't realize this until after I paid. It's not the money as much as the principal ... It just feels like needless nickel and diming the customers. PLEASE fix this, it should be a simple software adjustment. read more

To find a good BBQ place by me was impossible until I came to Finks! We had the sweet corn souffle, baby back ribs and mashed potatos. The waitor gave us two different kinds of barbeque sauces to try which were homemade and filled with flavor! I highly recommend checking it out. read more

First time and not my last. Finks was the best BBQ restaurant I've ever been to. Our server was so sweet and helpful with the menu (thank you Nicole). The place is clean and the food was out of this world. I'm glad it's a little far from my house because if it was closer I'd be going more then I should. It's the kind of place you go to to satisfy your most decadent cravings. The prices were more then fair for what you got and they even had a good Chardonnay that was the cherry on top. Love this place and keep up the good work. Happy we finally stopped in. read more

Visiting from NC came across Fink's while visiting friends in Tuxedo, NY, and we were not disappointed. The food is amazing, service is outstanding, Ian and Ella are awesome! The corn souffle is top-notch. We ordered the pork sampler with fries, garlicky greens, and corn souffle. Our friends ordered the half chicken, corn souffle, and chicken sliders. Everything was amazing.. we forgot to take pictures when the food came out but trust me when I tell you, this is a stop to add to your list. read more

We were hesitant to walk in but I'm glad we did. The food was delicious, staff was super attentive and they played old school RnB/Motown. Desserts were good I prefer the chocolate soufflé over the cheesecake. If you're in the area I recommend. read more

Fink's BBQ Roadhouse - brisket pork belly - American Near Me - Suffern, New York

I came here on a whim and out of desperation and overall I was quite satisfied. It's a tad overpriced for the area but I guess its the premium you need to pay for good food in a deep suburb. Our server was extremely helpful and was able to accomodate all of our requests. We ended up getting the pork sampler which came with spare ribs which we upgraded to baby backs. The pulled pork was great, the pork belly was awesome but surprisingly the ribs were rather dry and extremely salty. We also had the brisket which was definitely above average as i requested the moist end. The ribs stop me from giving it five stars but if they can fix them i'd easily give this place 5 stars. read more

Had the pork sampler with additional potato salad and garlicky green sides, as it wasn't past 5:30 and I couldn't sample the brisket nor beef rib. There were about 5 spare ribs that were varying in size and amount of meat; they were seasoned fairly well but overly charred and dried for two of the ribs. They were reminiscent somewhat of Cantonese style ribs in flavor and texture. The pork belly was crispy and not entirely that soft. The pulled pork slider was probably best, as the succulent bits had a rich sweet flavor. read more

I can only give it 4 stars because I am a HUGE fan of Bailey's Smokehouse in Blauvelt, and I use that as the gold standard of BBQ currency. Fink's is great. The Texas lollipops are on every order we place. Pretty confident that their sauce could be made from pixie dust and unicorn Horns. Magical. The only drawback for me is the brisket. Didn't love it. With all that being said, order. There is no other way than to find out for yourself! read more

Middle beef ribs are to die for I drive miles just to get it and the sauce is everything..

I've tried them twice! The ribs were tough the brisket dry and the pork belly was rubbery. The first time the Mac and cheese was good! The second time nasty read more

Best BBQ I've had in a wild. My husband and I went 30 minutes before the restaurant closed and the food tasted so fresh and delicious. The staff was friendly and attentive. The corn bread was out of this world! read more

Very solid bbq spot at reasonable prices. Easy parking right out front in their large parking lot. Ordered takeout but they had a pretty lively scene inside and plenty of picnic table seating outside. Really enjoyed their pulled pork, fried chicken sliders, and homemade chips. The rice and beans had a funky tangy taste and i can't decide if I love it or its just meh. The coleslaw was very good and just they way I like it. Will definitely go back to check out their live music on the weekend! read more

From the outside this place looks like it's a hole in the wall but on the inside it's very spacious, updated and well decorated! Brought my husband, son (5), infant daughter and mother here for lunch. Greeted by the host, seated in a booth, and waiter came up instantly. Had our drinks quickly, appetizer quickly. Waiter knew a decent amount about ingredients in the food (allergies at the table). When it came time for the food to come, it did take longer than normal and with a hungry child and husband, that will not fly. There was one other table and 5 people at the bar, so not much of a busy place at the time. Finally got our food. My ribs were AWFUL!!!! And I mean awful. I wanted so badly to love this bbq but another one bites the dust. It's very difficult to find fall off the bone, tender ribs, unless you stumble upon chili's. These ribs were so chewy, I ate one and that was it. My husband ordered a brisket dish with mashed potatoes and it had about 100 jalapeños on it. 10 jalapeños, cool. Dozens?? Not cool. Since my husbands mouth was on fire, even after removing the jalapeños (lingering hot pepper juices over-powered the dish), he asked for a refill on his soda; never got it. My mother said her pulled pork was the best she's ever had. That being said, we will not come back but the whole experience was "MEH". I wish I could give 2.5 stars because 3 is too many for chewy ribs. What a shame, it's such a cool place! read more

This review is long over due! honestly this has to be one of the best restaurants around ! The food is absolutely amazing. Orders are always correct and never messed up. The food is always seasoned well and also reasonably priced for what you are getting. Not to mention the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and needs are met. I would list their names but there are so many and no matter who you get will be the best. I highly recommend Finks to everyone. You will not be disappointed i promise !!! read more

I was blown away by the amount and flavor of the food, especially the pork ribs. Before I get into all the meat excitement, let me back up to say I ate at the bar on a very cold winter evening. Finding this place was slightly challenging as the Lyft drop off marker indicated it was actually about 700 feet past the actual business location, so my driver had to turn around in order to get me there. There is a firetruck out front that somewhat hides the side of the building. I ordered the duck skin tacos as appetizer, followed by the pork sampler. The pork sampler included pork ribs, pork belly, and pulled pork, and I got my sauce on the side. I loved the homemade pickles with my dish, too! My bacon old fashioned was well made, not watered down, and the candied crispy bacon was a nice touch to help highlight the natural sugar and smokey flavors in the bourbon. The pork ribs from my sampler didn't need the sauce, so I would suggest asking for it on the side. The sauce was delicious but personally I prefer dry rub ribs, but still they were great. They were very moist and falling off the bone. Very deep, notable seasoning and flavor. The pork belly was just ever so slightly overcooked. I enjoyed it nonetheless and the sauce it was served with which I dunked my bites of pork into. I suspect it may have been kept warm from prior cook and dried out in the process. The service was very friendly, everyone I met while eating at the bar was having a good time joking about how a heat wave was coming with the next few days going up to the low 20's, and it seemed like everyone enjoyed being there in this casual meat-tastic place. The menu was a little overwhelming with too many options, and even beyond that, they also had about ten daily specials the night I visited. However, that wasn't a bad thing, as the duck skin chicharrones tacos were on that daily special and I would gladly order them again. Since I'm low carb I didn't eat the taco shells but everything inside was so good, so bright, and the crunch on the duck meat was enjoyed with every.single.bite. I heard this place gets packed during good weather, and I can see why. It strikes me as the local hang out joint where you can know your staff, they know you, and the options for some good meals with very generous portions, abound. Can't wait to come back for more on my next visit. read more

I had got the buffalo chicken cheese steak with fries and both were pretty good. The fries are really good and the cheese steak was alright. However, the order was messed up and I had to wait for them to fix it. The size of the sandwich was wrong in addition to the side and the toppings. Other than this, the service was good and both the hostess and waitress were nice. The thing that bothered me most about this place was that there was a very strong smell of cigarette smoke as soon as I walked in. I'm not sure if it was from other patrons or what the deal was. All in all the food was decent for a pretty good price. read more

Very tasty, I came specifically to get the beef rib for takeout, so I showed up at 5:15 so I could claim the first rib! I got the potato salad and coleslaw as my two sides. ( I got the combo). The potato salad was really good I wasn't sure if I'd like it because I don't always like bacon on my potato but I liked this. The coleslaw was light on dressing but that went well with the beef. read more

We had been to the Dumont location so when our travels took us up to Orange County, we knew we had to pay a visit here. Outstanding ribs. Sauce must be requested. You might not need it though. The ribs are fantastic on their own. Fries with bbq seasoning. Pork belly, while a small serving, is quite good and rich. Fast, friendly service. The owner or pit master stopped by the table to see how everything was. Nice touch. This place is the real deal. Highly recomended. read more

We'd been here numerous times before and now we're officially disappointed. Our server was very unattentive to our table and basically admitted that he was too busy dealing with the tables outside where the band was to give us proper service. It got to the point where the hostess even noticed how poor the service was and stepped in to help out..... For the record... the entire inside of this restaurant stinks like Marijuanna. I think our greatest fear of Overlord Cuomos' reign has come to fruition and its "apparently normal" for patrons and employees to no longer step out for a cigarette break anymore but instead to smoke weed as if they are one and the same. read more

I love Fink's - it's my go-to spot for BBQ in the Bergen County, NJ/Suffern, NY area and always my first choice for wings. Their wings have a unique texture and savory, smoky flavor; they almost don't even need sauce, but the sauce is a plus! I've also had their BBQ seasoned fries, which are delicious, as well as various traditional BBQ dishes. I have yet to try anything here that I didn't like. This is a great spot for watching sports games with friends. They have TVs throughout the bar area and the dining room, and they usually have beer specials as well. Their signature cocktails are a bit on the pricier side, so I generally stick to beer when I dine here, but they have well drink specials as well. Definitely recommend Fink's for college football Saturday's and NFL Sunday's. read more
