5-16 51st Ave
Long Island City, NY 11101
Located in Long Island City, Smokey’s 11101 is the only good place in Queens I have found for BBQ. This place is never packed, and I have been there on weeknights and weekend nights. Hopefully this place sticks around since their food is great. The ribs are meaty and juicy, and as any good BBQ place their meals are definitely filling. Most entrees are served with a salad, beans and potatoes. For the salad they have an Asian Ginger dressing which is a personal favorite of mine. Just as I like it, the staff here is very friendly, I have even had the manager come to my table almost every time I have dined there to check on how my meal is. I live not to far from this place, so when I get the crave for BBQ, this is the place to go, and to top it all off Smokey’s participates in RewardsNetworks, which means miles!
