Best BBQ in Bensonhurst
Master Critic Review
Dun Huang
8.0
A Bensonhurst stop where the BBQ lane shows up in skewers and grill-forward dishes, but the smartest way to use it is as a focused order around one signature noodle and one grilled item. Portions and speed make it a solid weeknight option, especially if you avoid menu sprawl. Treat it as a tight two-to-three item meal and it lands cleaner.
Must-Try Dishes:
Signature beef noodle soup, Cumin lamb burger, Mala noodles

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; generally manageable on side streets but tighter after 6pm on busier nights.
Dress code: Casual and practical — jeans, sneakers, and everyday wear are perfectly fine.
Noise level: Low to moderate — easy to have a conversation without raising your voice.
Weekend wait: 15–25 minutes at peak times; shorter if ordering solo or off-hours.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — a few vegetable noodle dishes and meat-free sides are available.
Vegan options: Limited — possible with customization, but not a dedicated vegan menu.
Gluten-free options: Limited — broths and sauces often contain gluten; best to ask before ordering.
Best For
Better for: Fast, filling noodle-and-grill meals with strong cumin and spice-forward flavors at a good value.
Skip if: You’re looking for a long sit-down BBQ experience, big group dining, or a wide menu you want to explore end-to-end.
