Playland Motel

Great music and live band playing . great vibe and drinks also has it own parking lot. Enjoy a bite to eat or some great frozen mariagritas. Mix age in the crowd to young to hip and cool. If a know bar song comes on this is the place where every one starts singing together. End of the kitchen bag pipes. All scottish attire and a traditional bag pike is played. Bartender is the sweetest and bar backs are quick so if you get up for a smoke you might lose your drink so take it with you or have someone watching it.

Food was really good. ( 's)... (Avocado, shrimp, blt...) I would go back... Also recommend other's to visit.....

I have been here 5 times and it is just a hit and miss great to really bad they know it besides they want only there locals by the way I'm a local and I feel unwelcomed I'm not there click Oh well !!

WAS IN THE ROCKAWAYS AND STOPPED BY AT RBQ. AND LET ME TELL YOU I LOVED THIS PLACE, FROM THE FOOD TO THE DRINKS TO THE SERVERS, TOP NOTCH. AND THE BEST PART THE BBQ RIBS WERE OUT OF THIS WORLD. I WILL RETURN. I WORK FOR ANDREW DICE CLAY, AND I TOOK SOME FOOD TO GO. FORGETABOUT THIS IS HIT OF A PLACE

Great food, cold drinks with 24 taps, catering, take out and live music

Just too expensive. Food is good but not THAT good.

First time there. Very nice place and staff. Food was really good. Looking forward to going back.

What an awesome experience ..Peter the bartender took care of me and my guest ...Great service!. The food and the service was amazing. Thanks guys I enjoyed myself .

No parking when I went they had it closed off so I left and went somewhere else

Nice place to go with your loved one to enjoy each other and have great conversations and enjoy the live music...

I live the layout, our waitress Debbie was superb, and the food is always on point. RBQ is more than just a place for great ribs, it's a great hang every time you walk in the door

Good Food, nice staff. The back area can get a bit drafty in the winter (maybe it's the windows?). Like the place though and will certainly return again in the future. I know it's a BBQ place, and I eat meat sometimes, but maybe they could add an impossible burger to the menu or something of the sort?

Neighbor recommended RBQs for good bbq. Ordered the pork and brisket platter with mac and cheese and mashed potatoes for the sides. Food didn't take long at all. Both the pork and brisket were very bland, not seasoned well at all. I'm not one to drown my food in bbq sauce but in this case it was much needed.

This place is nice when wanting to have a relaxing time and have a good glass of wine or a bear.

The smoked chicken was good but the atmosphere was loud and cold. I had the rack of ribs and the flavor was good but I needed a sharp sharp knife to cut into them. This isn't my first visit but it's the same everytime.

Good food, clean place, many choices, Chile is v spicey

Food was delicious so tasty..we had chicken rib dish for 2. Portion was great we were stuffed. Mac and cheese. And cucumber slaw was delicious. Really nice clean new resturant..the staff so nice..the young boy. That brought us water. And was cleaning table. A real gentleman...cant wait to come back and tell my other friends. Price good

Terrible with what they had - their chicken taste like some boiled garbage you would find in a chinese soup - nothing was barbequed - fries were good - they were out of brisket and corn bread - (place was not busy how can you be out of menu items) - very disappointing... Lettuce wraps and chicken Taco were all made of the same soggy chicken

Their ribs are to die for. Very good flavor, get the full rack and it ll last you 2-3 meals easy. Their cornbread was a little dry, but still flavorful. Their vegetarian burger isn t anything special but tasted okay. Love their Mac and cheese side or their mashed potatoes side. Great atmosphere inside. Bar area with tv s and plenty of seating.

So irritated that I just wasted $15 on wings and cornbread. The cornbread was dry no butter like they usually put but charges me $5 just for a piece of cornbread. The 3 pcs wings are so big they can't even cook them all the way. The wings were still pink in the middle! Very dissatisfied.

Was here today and grabbed one of their 32oz. Orange Crush frozen alcoholic drinks in the to-go aluminum beer can. SOOOOOOO GOOOOD!!! Do yourself a favor and grab a drink or SIX while here!

Good coleslaw. Ribs were good. Brisket was ok. Their BBQ sauces leave something to be desired. Mac and Cheese was bad. No bread crumbs and the cheese was Kraft or Cheese Whiz.

Terrible food, place is small! Bathrooms have vomit all over.

Great place. Wish they had more beef options. Beef ribs

Great Food, Nice Atmosphere, Wonderful Service. Best BBQ around.

Place is soso nothing special for BBQ. Service was also just ok. Not sure if I would go back

The food is always fresh and delightful, cashiers gives fantastic customer service. I love the cleanliness and ambience. I highly recommend this spot.

Great spot to chill and have a drink with friends or colleagues. The drinks are great and the staff is very friendly. The food is pretty decent but being the fry connoisseur that I am, their fries could be a little better.

This place is a great addition to the community! The menu is well written and easy to read. I love the mac and meat! Literally the best combo EVER! My family and I also loves the nachos and the smoked wings. I look forward to working my way through the menu!

Very Good Stopped in w two buddies for lunch & we all enjoyed it

Quite nice. A bit of a vibrant and noisy atmosphere. The ribs were quite good. Very meaty, fall off the bone and succulent. The fries were a bit salty however and the beans were good. Wait staff was pleasant. Overall a good place to eat.

Great service, great food! Support your local businesses!

We had the 12hr Brisket and the BB ribs. And to quote my hubby after sighing and picking a piece of brisket out of my lap. "You know your eating good food when you're more upset about the piece of meat you dropped than the clothes you're wearing." Yummy. Thanks Taylor for excellent service.

Place was loud. Couldn't hear what other person was saying to me. Food was delicious though!

Food was really good I would have given at 5 Stars I'm just not a big BBQ guy place was clean price was nice good

The food was really good! Watermelon mojito was delish!

Was visiting Rockaway during covid, so we stopped by for some takeout. Owners were very nice, food was delicious. Will go back again when I'm in Rockaway.

There is no better, a day at the beach and RBQ heaven!

Some off best BBQ I've had in NYC. Be sure to also get the cucumber slaw!

Drinks were good,Service was good,food was ok,a little more seasoning and it would be perfect.

Food and atmosphere is decent . I enjoy going during the winter when there are only locals or less it is too crowded .The food is pretty good. The wings can tend to be dry if they weren't smoked the same day , which has only happened twice . The music is really bad when there isn't a band . Five stars is for the service , the workers are cool and accommodating!

I constantly stop by getting some food in here. I like the swift service and well made food. Fantastic work.

Guys are just great. Helps that they are all my sons friends and always makes me feel special..

So far so good ! The brisket is slammin. The fries are slammin. I usually don't like non-Kraft Mac and cheese but guess what ? Theirs is slammin. We ate at the bar and the bartender was pretty cool. They gave out some rib tips that were covered in some kind of honey BBQ sauce. It was SLAMMIN. They have a huge beer selection. I think we got like a 3 or 4 page beer menu. Love this place !

Open early for World Cup Games, great selection of beer, five TVs for great coverage, tasty food - so great to see this spot revitalized. Will definitely be back.

The food was delicious, the service was great. No complaints about anything.

Good beach for after a day at the beach . But the BBQ the meats are a bit over salted , dry and way too smokey. It might be that it is a young Bbq pit. Also no real greens collard , would like to see a vinegar slaw also . Burgers and Beers are on point though . Will go again

Its smokey, deliciousness aroma is captivating captivating from 4 to 5 blocks away. The food is awesome. Loving the new full menu. Great live music through the week. Friendly fast service and a great atmosphere. Loving the open air counter and express/latd night market. Keep up the Smoke. Have a #SickPhatTight day and beyond.

Memorial Day Monday night, Black Beatles were playing - awesome. Good selection of draft beers and whiskey/rye/scotch. They ran out of food this day(!), but their meat, wings, tips, and beans are very good. May have an AirBnB onsite, and one block down the block from beach.

First time eating from here i give three stars because the ribs had too much of a smokey taste and fries was to salty but no complaints on them big chicken wings very crunchy like i like it

It s was So Nasty felt as if They just didn t care how the customers feel. Bad Service

Great food great bartender..I believe Jay was his name. Good times

Nice place, good bar, and okay food. I'd like to give 3.5 stars. Their "pulled chicken" is basically just poached chicken that's been cut up in chunks and really isn't seasoned. We really enjoyed the nachos though! Because it's so small, it's very loud when there's a band here. I'd prefer to go when it's quieter.

On sept 8, 2018 I ordered my meal to go over the phone. First of all the lady acted like she could not hear me so I repeated order several time she confirmed at the end of it all and got it right. She also asked me for my number at the end of conversation and it was correct. Stated she was taking it just in case she needed to call me back. Now with that being said I get there to pick up meal. They substituted my husbands sandwich which we ordered the cry baby and they gave us a truffle chicken cheesest which isn t even on the menu. Claiming they didn t have the sandwich that was ordered but didn t bother to call back or state on phone that they didn t have it. Mind you the sandwiches were nothing alike. Next I also ordered the St. Louis rib meal 1/3 rack which was 16 dollars on the menu there and the menu I had got earlier in the week and I was charged 22 dollars. I am asking the lady what s up with the bill she quickly ran my card and I processed to ask why am I being charged 22 dollars for a 16 meal she tells me it s tax. So I pointed out to her that there is a line right below it that says tax 2.93. Basically there service is terrible the sandwich was gross and they over charge and can t seem to figure out why .... I threw menu away when I returned home and will never go there again nor recommend to anyone

The food is consistently well prepared and delicious, workers gives excellent service. I really like how clean it is and atmosphere. I highly recommend this place.

Everything was fine, but while we were waiting for our server for an additional order, there was another one server girl passing by our table without any significant being busy. We wanted to ask her about bringing some water saying sorry could you please, her answer killed us. It was like I am not your server. And no excuse, no apologysing, no any sorry or just saying I will call your server. And no smile of course.

Had a half of rack ribs and mashed potatoes. The ribs were so tough and dry with lots of fat. Could not even cut it or chew it. Mashed potatoes were cold. Never again.

Great atmosphere, wonderful staff, good grub. If what I saw Memorial Day weekend is any indicator, come early cuz this place get real busy and the more popular dishes might be in short supply.

Stopped in for some drinks, live music, and great vibes every time.

Food was quite nice but pretty expensive for what one is given.

It's a nice place. The food was decent. Portion sizes were large. The nachos appetizer was very good. I had the baby back ribs. They were good but a bit salty and a little tough. The brisket my daughter got was tasty but a bit dry. My son had the mac and meat. It was probably the best of our entrees. The atmosphere was loud. It's more of a bar scene than a BBQ restaurant. The service was ok. I think they were understaffed though. The food came fast and hot, but then we rarely saw our waitress after the food came out. I had to track down a runner to get take away trays brought to the table. All in all, I cant give it more than 3 stars. I've had better BBQ with better service elsewhere.
