Master Critic Review
Mason Jar NYC
7.6
Mason Jar NYC is a long-running Midtown East sports bar and barbecue spot where baby back ribs share space with smoked brisket, wings, and Southern comfort staples. Since 2010, it’s been the default choice in this part of 10016 when you want a plate of ribs with a beer list and TVs for the game rather than a pure smokehouse experience.
Must-Try Dishes:
Baby back rib platter with two sides, BBQ tasting platter with ribs, brisket, and pulled pork, Braised short ribs with garlic mashed potatoes
