Decent BBQ by NYC standards. We tried: Buffalo wings- good, though wish there was more of a smoky flavor. This goes for all their meats tbh Pork ribs- a tad leaner than I prefer, but had the right amount of bite Pork belly- liked how they crisped this up on the griddle before serving Fatty brisket- solid Pastrami beef rib- definitely the best thing out of everything we got. Tender and very flavorful from the pastrami brine. Highly recommended. My favorite BBQ spots in Brooklyn are still Hometown and Bark, but this is a solid spot to add to the rotation. read more

Grand opening, grand closing. Been meaning to try this place for a while now and now that I have I can honestly say it wasn't worth it. Ordered pickup and when I arrived to pickup the staff wasn't friendly at all plus it was damn near empty in there on a Saturday afternoon. That should've told me to abort mission lol. Ok so let's jump into the food, I ordered a lot cause remember I've been wanting to try this place for years. I got fatty brisket, pulled pork, half rack of each kind of ribs. The meats are what they are, brisket is tender but lacks flavor. Bbq sauce helps with that. Pulled pork, same thing. The naked ribs are ok, but again the glazed are more flavorful. It's almost as if they don't season their meats before putting them in the smoker, assuming they use one. The one star I did give was due to the tenderness of the meat so they weren't a complete lost cause. Now for the sides. Lord have mercy. None of the sides I got were worth a damn. The collards had no seasoning, mac and cheese was literally just that, macaroni with a "cheese sauce" and cheese on top. No type of seasoning. The simmered pinto beans were ok but not what I was expecting. I was expecting baked beans and ended up with beans from chipotle. The cornbread was an absolute joke. Dense, chewy and lacking flavor. I wouldn't wish this cornbread on anyone. NYC is not known for its bbq and with places like this I can see why. Surprised they're still in business if I'm being completely honest. Oh also, where they're located isn't ideal. Venture in at your own risk. read more

Man , I was craving some good ol' BBQ. I definitely used Yelp for this spot. This spot seemed underrated but I went based of the pictures. We had made a reservation prior and walked in and were seated right away. From the waiter we were told few good recommendations and we definitely listened. It's was a great idea , perfect for 2 hungry 200lbs+ Men. We had Wings , Mexican Corn , Platter , Beef Brisket and Bacon Mac Cheese. Loved the place everything was amazing . Loved the ambiance and bar. Definitely will be back !! Service - Perfect Very Welcoming Ambiance- Nice Corner Location , barn Setup Reservation- Not Needed but Preferred WiFi - Not Sure Parking - Street Metered read more

It has been 3 years since i was able to write a review for this place. I figured I will do an update. I went there yesterday with a friend. The beef ribs were available (usually sold out). As soon as i heard that, i ordered an order to split. Best thing on the menu. Just melts in your mouth. Also had the fatty brisket which is the 2nd best thing on their menu. Do not order lean brisket. We also had ribs and wings which were good. If I had to redo it, I would take off the ribs from my order. Not because they weren't good but that was more food than we could eat. Service was great, came back frequently enough to make sure our waters were never empty. Will definitely continue to come here when I need great Brooklyn BBQ. TLDR: Everything is still great. (added 1 star for better service this time) read more

All I have to say is Fatty Brisket and Truffle Mac & Cheese, nothing else matters to me!!! Fatty brisket: is so full of flavor and tender no sauce is needed. Truffle Mac and cheese: creamy cheesy goodness with truffle flavor that's not too overwhelming. Ribs: we're dry and not too flavorful Smoked Sausage: good Cornbread: Dry & hard... why would you serve this ‍ I'll stick to what I like, because I'm not brave enough to try anything else. read more

Being from Texas, I kept an open mind that I couldn't compare this to the ones I've had in Texas. I called for a pickup order but I had to just order online nonetheless, the guy who was on the phone was extremely nice, patient, and helpful. He told me since they were renovating I had to come to pick it up from another establishment that wasn't Morgan's Barbecue, a bit confusing but not that bad. The food however was not that great. Quite dry and the dry rub just wasn't hitting it. The sweet bbq sauce was not too bad. The best out of all of these would probably be the ribs, but even then it was decent at the best. I commend them for trying to attempt Texas-style BBQ in NYC but this ain't it. The service is definitely what brought it from a 1-star to a 2-star rating here. read more

Morgan's Brooklyn Barbecue - Barbeque Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Let's see.. the last time I had really great BBQ in NYC was Tennessee Mountain in Soho. ( yes a blast from the past). TM served delicious BBQ chicken, ribs, best sauce which they sold and delicious corn bread. Even the decor was homey and comfortable with even great service. Then.. sadly.. it closed. I've tried Blue Smoke and several other BBQ joints located on Park Avenue South. All were just okay.. Then I was dining at Tiny's Cantina last year, and they mentioned Morgans BBQ and the devastating fire it went through. ( Morgan's owns Tiny's Cantina). TC was cooking BBQ in their tiny kitchen for online orders. Now to the present.. restaurant week was upon us and I got an email from Morgan's. And the rest is... this review!! My friend and I were in a BBQ mood and last Friday night was a perfect breezy summer night for BBQ and brews and dining al fresco. We sat outside in their cute picnic seating and placed orders for brisket sandwich, fried chicken sandwich, fries and some drinks. All was good until... BEES! Swirling around us on us.. YIKES! and we headed inside.. literally feet don't fail us now!!! Andres, our really nice and understanding waiter, "ran" behind us with our food and drinks.. My friend loved her brisket sandwich.. tender and saucy. I loved my fried chicken sandwich and the fries... Yumm! I could have drank the sauce.. I dipped every fry in that sauce. The chicken was crispy and tender. I would order it again next time sans bread. My Corona XL really hit the spot and was badly needed as my Yankees lost yet another game.. I should have summoned the bees to Yankee stadium but I digress.. My friend loved the Berry Fresca*, she found it light and refreshing. Dining inside was just as cool as outside and it was packed as we were leaving. Well my " Tennessee Mountain" has moved to Prospect Heights!* * Sofreh is next to Morgan's.. I knew it was in Prospect Heights but a great find.. Eyval in Bushwick is related to Sofreh. Actually, there are a plethora of cool restaurants on St. Marks Avenue that I've bookmarked. More to come..( I felt like Rachel Maddow right now with that last line) read more

Another successful restaurant week visit at an amazing location. Being from Florida, having lived in Texas and spent much time in North Carolina..I know good barbecue. I was not disappointed. The service was quick and efficient and the place has a sexy ambiance. The Instagram page did not disappoint and I'm glad I gave it a chance. I highly recommend. I vote for adding boudin to the menu. lol read more

I'm sorry but this place went way downhill. The food is above par, but the staff, clueless! The bartender tonight horrible ! Never gave water and handed me paper towels for a napkin. Bartender never cleaned bar, and told couple you'll be fine when sitting at dirty area"! I hope the owner sees this! Clean house read more

Yo this is my kind of place! As my Dude Big_Schilm would say Stamp on everything! We were hanging with our daughter and her boyfriend who had been here before. So we had so insight on what to expect. The outside seating looked great they had umbrellas for the tables. The inside wasn't huge but very cozy. Nice strong wood motif. Service was great! We decided to eat outside. After we ordered drinks and our meals. We were annoyed by a couple of Bees. We were quickly moved inside. Now the food in the hand is something special! If someone tells you that only good Bar-B-Que is in the south they are lying to you. Cause, let me tell you Morgan has some of the best Bar-B-Que in the country. The fatty Brisket is a must. The burnt ends, the ribs, the pork belly you name it, it was great! Not Good but Great! Not to mention the drinks were on point. I had the bushwick smash. Very nice . I can see this being a regular stop when in NY. RP @unk_rp read more

Food was a 2/10 everything had more fat then meat to all my Hispanics go get some tacos instead

Restaurant Week 2024 Smoked Chicken Wings (4 out of 5) Tossed in mango habanero sauce a hit of a kick but not unbearable Smoke Prime Rib (4 out of 5) cooked medium rare, tender and moist, served with Mashed potatoes and Au Jus Chocolate Brownie (5 out of 5) warm and soft, great with the cold vanilla ice cream Overall I give it a solid 8. Located a few blocks from Barclays Center. Our server Nina was excellent. Will be back again read more

Used to come here literally all the time for a specific dish (which they don't have anymore smh) but besides that the food is still good, the service is super friendly & the place looks just like it did before. A calm vibe as always with good music. read more

Came in on a Tuesday night and the place was actually not very packed which I thought was kind of nice. The ambiance was great, the music was not too loud and the staff were super accommodating. They definitely took their time making sure my boyfriend and I were alright and were super patient with us given that it was our first time there. We got the brisket nachos to start and that already was delicious and the portion was hefty! Food was great. The only thing that was a little off was the queso fries. I didn't expect it to be fries with queso in a container, but it was alright. Overall, I highly recommend the place to anyone that's looking for a fun night out with friends and some decent bbq. read more

Please take note of the ignorance of the management's comment about my reasons for posting this review. The photos clearly show Morgan's barbeque served undercooked chicken which is a health risk to all customers. i refused management's complimentary meal offer and informed the staff that i will not patronize this business. Instead of attacking your customers for sharing valid concerns and feedback about your negligence, Morgan's management should take the initiative to prioritize and correct the ongoing problem. Serving improperly cooked meat to customers is a health risk and violation. The management's ignorant response clearly speaks volumes about the lack of professionalism, customer service, business ethics and values. No one cares about your free meals. Food safety should be your top priority. Again to all customers, please hold this establishment accountable for food safety. read more

Morgan's doesn't miss. The candied bacon is crazy. I had the chicken sandwich, good size, juicy. Service was on point. Nothing super fancy about the place, it's a BBQ, it shouldn't be. The bathroom is hot as hell though. read more

The staff at this place is what makes it great, not the actual quality of the majority of the food. I was so excited to come here, as I am a southerner with a love to hood food. I ordered a shot with ginger bitters, but received a drink with juice and watered down soda. So weird. Things only got worse, the food arrived. The smoked wings were unseasoned, reheated and dry as the desert. I'm still reeling from having took them home and trying to doctor them up for consumption. Collards tasted like Glory or Sylvia's with some of the sesonong rinsed off. Mac & cheese was tasteless and one dimensional. The saving grace was the frito pie. It was missing a few traditional toppings but it was still the tastiest thing I had. My friend had the brisket cheesesteak and was also disappointed in the dryness and lack of cohesiveness in the dish. Guys, I know you must have served better in the past, I pray you will deliver like the glory days. read more

I've only been to this place once, and I will say I had a great time when I visited. I really like the ambience of the place, it's casual, but still inviting. The staff is pretty friendly and accommodating, but what I loved the most about this place was the food. I had some of the best brisket I've ever tried here, it was the perfect amount of lean and fatty, making it super flavorful. Their wings were also incredible. They smoke them and because of that they have the perfect amount of crispness to the skin and string in flavor. I also liked their bacon Mac and cheese, which was the perfect amount of cheesy for me. I would definitely come back here! read more

So we showed up 10 minutes before our reservation. The man that greeted us told us to hold on a minute. I guess he was trying to find a table. There were empty seats at the bar so we asked if we can sit there. The bartender was very pleasant. He told us what was unavailable right away. The food was delicious and the Coney Island beer was smooth. We requested the channel be changed on the tv so we can watch the All Star Challenge and they obliged. I read other reviews before going ab people complained about the weird curtain. I feel the curtain is there to keep the cold air out when the door opens. It was a great idea especially since I was sitting at the bar right in front of the door. I will definitely be back again. I had the steak tacos which was good. My boyfriend had the holy trinity plater which consisted of fatty brisket, pork ribs and pork sausage. I did try the fatty brisket and it was delicious. I put their spicy bbq sauce on it and it was as scrumptious!! We had the smoked wings with bbq sauce as an appetizer. read more

Came to enjoy some good ol American BBQ. We had our pup with us and were quickly seated outside. Food was delicious and the service was great as well.

The candied bacon on top of the Mac and cheese was ridiculously good. read more

Glad they re-opened. Not glad that it seems as though there has been no training to staff and/or they just aren't ready. - No wine list and when I asked for the wines that he said they had (Savi B) the waiter came back to tell me that they didn't have it - They say they have Buffalo Trace Bourban on the menu - ps they don't and it took three men to check for 5 mins. - A few taps were labeled wrong and the beer I did get didn't taste well at all. Food was ok - brisket tacos, kale salad, corn and baked potato. I am hoping it is just kinks they need to work out. read more

I've eaten here several times, especially in the summer. Nothing like a chill vibe, good company and BBQ in Brooklyn! Each time I come, I try different things. Having said all that, I find the food to be just okkkkk for me. I had the fried chicken platter, which was on the bland side and my corn bread was dryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy (cough cough) I don't know what's going on here, I just wish the food was consistent. Service is always good and drinks are decent. Just ehh for me... read more

Great BBQ food! Even more special with my perfect food delivery ! The smoked meats were so delicious and I enjoyed bits and pieces of it all. I ordered some Fatty Brisket, pulled pork, plain wings with sauce on the side. 1Lb of Ribs and traditional macaroni and cheese. The portions are generous and all of the meats were extremely tender. My goodness those ribs were amazing with every bite, the meat literally just falls right off the bone. Everything was to perfection aside from the macaroni and cheese, I mean it was great don't get me wrong but lacked flavor. I was able to sprinkle a little salt on it and BAM, perfection! I'd definitely visit in person because I had no complaints at all. Food was packed away tightly, it arrived hot and all was delicious. read more

Morgan's Brooklyn Barbecue - An update of my favorite brisket spot - Barbeque Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Honestly a very good and delicious BBQ Joint! You get a lot for your money and it's all very high quality meat! I only left off a few stars because for me personally, a lot of the meats were on the fatty side--but the flavor is phenomenal so if this isn't something that bothers you usually it's a nonstarter. I highly recommend the Mac and cheese, cornbread, ribs and burnt ends--those were my favorites! If you go with a group get one of the platters so you can try a lot of the meats at a great price. Great place and will definitely back, just with tums next time for sure! read more

I am extremely disappointed with this year's food. I've been ordering every single Thanksgiving for the past few years but the food was extremely disappointing. The turkey was dry and the string beans were unseasoned. The food seemed to be rushed and for a special holiday like today, you have lost a customer. I couldn't believe how bad the food was and we paid a pretty penny for the food. So disappointing, never coming again. read more

So over the years, pre-covid, I've been to Morgan's. I've seen good days I've seen bad days. Most recently I came in town and it was an easy choice bc I've enjoyed their food. Unfortunately, my experience deteriorated after the last two visits. The service is great always I must say! It's just I don't feel the need to cheat myself on good Bar-B-Que when I can go some place else. The smoked wings and brisket nachos were perfect! read more
