Virgil's Real BBQ - Times Square

Barbecue restaurant · Midtown West

"Virgil's Real BBQ in Times Square makes real hardwood barbecue more accessible to tourists than any other place in town. It’s owned by the same hospitality company as the Italian restaurant, Carmine’s. The barbecue is surprisingly good despite the corporate feel, with decent brisket, pulled pork, and barbecue beans bobbing with little tidbits of meat. Like Carmine’s, another branch resides on the Upper West Side." - Robert Sietsema
