ADDY'S BBQ

Addy’s BBQ in Elmont, NY is a halal spot with a welcoming vibe and friendly service. We ordered the Chili Cheese Fries, which were decent; the Jalapeño Poppers had good heat but lacked crispiness; the Chicken Mishkaki was flavorful and tender, probably the highlight; and the Rib-eye Steak was okay…..juicy enough but nothing extraordinary. Portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. However, the food is nowhere close to the Addy’s BBQ in Edison, NJ…..it’s just not on the same level in terms of boldness and execution. If you’re in the area and craving halal BBQ, it’s worth a try, but manage your expectations if you’ve been to the NJ location.

Tried this place for the first time on a snowy day. The place was empty due to the weather so we asked to sit in the booth but they said it’s reserved for people but the place was empty and no one had came as they said it was reserved for even when we left. The food wasn’t hot was arrived and the flavors were bland. There was a fly flying around the food as well. When press the service request on the app it only worked once and was waiting and waiting but seem they were more busy with drinking chai and talking on their phone. Finally when I called out to them they came after 4 times trying. I wouldn’t recommend this place the service is bad and they over charged you without telling you anything.

Great, comforting food! Highly recommend the chicken fried chicken. The restaurant is spacious and the staff is very friendly.

We got a few different kinds of dishes here and the only dishes I'd say that were worth it were the steaks and baby lamb chops. The burger was average and the tenders were below average. Overall I feel the price was way overpriced vs the quality of the food. The one thing that really annoyed me was that they put on a "standard 18% gratuity fee" even if we were a smaller group of 5. I understand when it's used for larger groups but I feel it's rude for a smaller group. The service was good and friendly and I really appreciated that they served Salam Cola. Overall I'd only recommend coming here for a budget-friendly steak. Chair Score: 3/5 had a cushion but felt a little unstable

I've been driving by this spot for a long time not even really knowing what it is. I thought it was what I know as traditional barbeque. What I found was halal style and it was very good. The lamb shank has beautiful zing in its seasoning and the short ribs were a bit tangy and melted like butter. Oh what an unexpected treat. The biryani was simply trash and delicious. The other treat was the brothers in the place; sweet spirits. I enjoyed connecting them. Quite a pleasure for a quick bite and way more healthful that the other go to's for quick bites. I'll go back again.....rich, fresh, beautifully seasoned....just nice.
