From Google Maps reviews.
We chose Roosevelt Bbq for our NY visit, and it was a great decision. The food was perfectly seasoned, and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout our entire meal. Cozy atmosphere and a lovely experience overall!"
This BBQ spot on Roosevelt Street is a hidden gem! The place is clean and has a really authentic Chinese street BBQ vibe. The skewers are amazing—especially the lamb skewers, which are juicy, well-seasoned, and perfectly grilled with just the right amount of cumin and spice. No gamey taste at all. The chicken wings and grilled eggplant were also delicious and full of flavor without being greasy. Service was friendly and efficient, and the staff gave great recommendations for first-timers.
