If we didn't check what we got we would have been missing one. They were able to give another lamb skewer for us though, but unfortunately didn't get to try what we originally ordered. The meat was well seasoned with cumin and other spices, but some of the lamb pieces I had were largely fatty and hard to chew. A good place to stop by for a quick snack, though there are better skewer shops in Flushing

What a wonderful hidden treasure I stumbled upon! While waiting for another reservation, my friend…read moreand I got hungry and couldn't resist the decadent smell of chinese skewers. With a price of $2 per skewer, we ordered 1 beef, 2 lamb, 1 chicken gizzard, and 1 chicken skewers. They cook all skewers to order and take credit payment (tap). If you want to pay in cash, make sure you have the exact amount. The meat was so flavorful and the fat was rendered beautifully off of the meat! I'm docking 1 star because they had accidentally given us 4 skewers instead of 5 that we ordered when they gave up the skewers wrapped in tin foil, anddddd after consuming the skewers did we realize we did not get the variety we ordered, but instead 4 lamb and 1 chicken gizzard. The lamb was honestly so delicious though we weren't even mad!

Flavorful and VERY filling!!! We got the 2 meat sampler (cost extra to get brisket and ribs but…read moreworth it). Also got a side of mac and cheese. This was enough for 2 ppl for lunch - we were really full afterwards. The brisket and ribs were tender and had great taste! Recommend using the lime sauce they have at the table - goes great on the brisket. The sampler came with a small side of coleslaw- this helped cut thru the meat. Total was about $30 so there are def cheaper options for lunch but if you're craving bbq this will do! Plenty of seating inside. Order at a kiosk.

Used to order the brisket, but this time had chicken and a side of smashed sweet potatoes. Chicken was tasty, however I had a hard time eating it with the skin on since the skin wasn't crispy, which is my preference (I peeled off all of the skin). Not sure if the quality has changed over the years, but I would like to try the brisket and pulled pork again.

I used to order the wings but they too big so didn't order that. Ordered the smokehouse bbq, brisket, pulled pork & ribs. The pulled pork was cool the brisket wasn't well done, the ribs were okay. The best thing was the baked potato. Now the drinks came out right away HOWEVER, the food took damn near an hour to come out. We almost left when it came out. I'm almost confident I won't ever be back unless it's just for drinks. And since I barely drink I highly doubt I'll be back.

The happy hour menu was in full swing when we arrived so our table of four sampled a few things. Korean BBQ ribs were tender and flavorful but much too fatty for my liking. The popcorn shrimp served with real popcorn was tasty. Lemonade spiked with vodka and served in Mason jars was really good. My friend said her pulled pork sliders were just a bit dry. From the main menu I ordered deviled eggs sprinkled with crumbled bacon. My main course was a Caesar Salad with grilled shrimp. Everything was delicious. Our servers were very patient and let us linger which was very nice. About an hour in, we were treated to live music and we ordered another round of spiked lemonade. Our bill at the end was really low considering how much food we ordered. I plan to attend a few more Broadway shows this year, so Virgil's Real BBQ will be seeing more of me.

When we pulled up to the restaurant, we were informed there were a few levels. We went to the second floor and they were happy to accommodate us. We were rolling 6 deep and the booth was enough for us, but barely. In our party, majority of us wanted meat with the exception of 2 people only wanting shrimp and something else. We got the large beef combination platter which comes with ribeye, thin skirt, brisket, marinated kalbi, and marinated chuck flap. Most people stuck with water, while a couple got ginger ale. I ordered the soju flight but I ended up not liking it so my cousins shared it. The meal comes with different veggies as well as your choice of soup. We got the spicy tofu and split it 6 ways. The spice lived up to its name, so I didn't eat very much. The best part was meat. Despite there being 6 of us, there was plenty to go around. I think you have the option to cook it yourself or have them cook it for you and we chose the latter. While I enjoyed it, I wish there was more space. Most of the space was taken up by the accompaniments that come with it (veggies, etc), so there was hardly any room to put anything else. It didn't help that none of our dishes were cleared once we finished them and that no rice is included. Aside from that, both the food and service were great.

I saw that they have music on certain days so if you interested in some music come check it out. We ordered the two meat meal with greens, mac n cheese, and corn bread. They didn't have any pork belly burnt ends ready so that was a bummer. The food came out fairly quick which was nice. Everything looked really good. The brisket was cooked perfect and nice fatty parts to it if you like that. There was some good smoke to it and nice seasoning to it. The ribs were a little overcooked and not much meat on them. The mac n cheese was really good, nice amount of cheese, noodles cooked perfect, and nice seasoning in it. The greens were also cooked perfect, not mushy, great flavor, and also seasoned right. The cornbread was off the hook, very tasty with great flavor. I like that they mixed corn in the cornbread. We also ordered the Banana Wafer Pudding which was delicious. NIce flavor and the wafers were fresh and crunchy, I just needed more of them. We tried to wait for Pork Belly burnt ends but we had to go. The BBQ sauces were just ok, nothing to say hey you have to try it. I'd definitely be back to this place if I'm in town. Don't know why they only have 3.5 stars. The service was also good. I so wanted to give a 5 star but I just couldn't.

Since our program covered the expenses, we didn't pay anything out of pocket. Now I enjoy a good BBQ cookout at home as much as the next family, but don't care for it as a dining experience. My employer catered BBQ luncheons from time to time, and even then I wasn't crazy about it. Here in Hill Country, a room was reserved for us (party of 36). Our dinnerware resembled army mess tins lined with sanitary papers; our glasses resembled moonshine jars complete with screw threads at the rim for lids. Our dinner was a catered set of longhorn cheddar mac & cheese (quite good), sliced brisket (meh), market chicken (a little tough), fresh baked cornbread (dry & hard) and collard greens (good but could be saltier). I consumed massive amounts of mac & cheese and collared greens to help swallow down the almost rock-hard cornbread. Desert was chocolate chip cookies (that wasn't bad). Some members of the group ordered liquor (at their own expense) to celebrate the good time they were having. Customer service was less than stellar. The waitress did not inform us that soft drinks were complimentary until after we finished eating. That wasn't all. The restroom was located downstairs past the bar room. During my two visits - before and after the food was served - the same staff member was there cleaning. He had just finished the sinks when I went in the first time. On the second visit, the front door was blocked from the inside by a pail - he was mopping the floor. Couldn't he have waited till the off-peak hours to do that?? Customer service and cornbread were enough for me to not recommend this restaurant.

Nubiani is a premium Korean BBQ restaurant in Koreatown, and it operates at a level that is…read morenoticeably different from most of what the neighborhood offers. I walked into a space that was well designed, the kind of room that felt intentional from the lighting down to the table setup, and the ventilation was genuinely excellent. I did not leave smelling like smoke, which is not something I can say about most places in this category. The format here is tableside cooking handled entirely by a dedicated chef, which changed the experience considerably. The meats came out properly and in the right sequence, and having someone manage the grill meant nothing got overcooked or neglected while I was distracted by conversation. The Nubiani Package is the standard way to go and covered a solid range of cuts. Meat quality was high across the board, well marbled and fresh, the kind of thing that reminded me why I was paying what I was paying. The banchan selection was generous and well prepared, and the egg soufflé that came as part of the meal was a high quality dish. Service throughout was attentive in a way that never felt intrusive. Banchan got replenished without me having to ask, the pacing moved at a comfortable rate, and the staff seemed genuinely familiar with the menu and how the meal was supposed to flow. There is a time limit on the reservation, which is standard for the format, so it is worth knowing going in. Reservations through Resy are essentially required, and they will not seat your party until everyone has arrived, so plan for that. For the quality of the meat, the service, and the overall experience, Nubiani justifies what it charges.

Unfortunately…read morethe seating was very uncomfortable and the manager of the restaurant refused to switch the bench for 2 chairs to accommodate my disability because "it didn't fit their decor perfectly." We were deeply offended and left the restaurant to eat at the nearby restaurant. We would never return.

Do yourself a favor, don't bother to come there! Oh and also they tell you that you can only spend 1.5 there, a limit on your stay. You get the picture. Don't waste your time and better spend your money elsewhere.

NOT IMPRESSED…read more Stopped in for a quick lunch around 1:00 PM and I was extremely disappointed with the service and food quality. When I arrived, there were only a few other customers seated in the dining room. That should have been a RED flag, but I wanted to try the burgers while visiting New York. My wife had the Classic Burger topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, house sauce served with fries for $19.95 and I had the Smash-ology Burger with double smash burger patties topped with American cheese, red onion, lettuce tomato, smash-ology sauce on a potato bun served with fries for $19.95. First, the burgers are very small, lack flavor and there is nothing special about them. I've had a better tasting burger from Steak & Shack for a fraction of the cost. The fries were very cold and looked like they were sitting on a holding table for an extended period. I sent the fries back only to be served with more cold fries. Service was also lacking. When I complained about the cold fries, the server didn't seem to be pleased and was very hesitant to take them back. At a cost of more than $45 for two burgers and fries, I expected more.
