We stopped here mid week,mid day. The ribs were delicious and the cornbread was yummy. Tiny place with a counter. Nice people working there. Probably the best pork ribs I've had in a very long time. I shall return.

While I love food, I'm also older which means it takes a lot to impress me. Stuey's is the rare place that consistently impresses me. The brisket (i go lean bc even lean isnt too lean), sweet potato and cornbread is one of the most perfect meals on Long Island.

Delicious No frills Service is friendly/ the rest is self serve Ambiance is very casual I can't wait to go back. Order early, they sold out of the chicken. There's no dessert. Don't skip the sides.

Great find! Saw some good reviews on Yelp so my daughter and I took a ride into locust valley. Very little place with the smell of bbq wafting outside luring you in. Parking is plentiful behind the joint and it has a small, covered back area to dine in. The pulled pork was delicious, moist and just enough fat for texture and flavor. The brisket was great as well, moist and pulled apart easily. We ordered corn bread which my daughter loved s as were the sweet potatoes which were like dessert . Definitely will return

Top quality food. We walked in and the lady behind the counter was slicing apart a tender chicken. The menu is simple and it's easy to choosse what you want. Most of it was sold out by the time we arrived. My boo and I ordered a pound of the brisket with a mini cornbread and two bottles of water. It would be great if they had more non-carbonated options. We sat in the back patio and the guy behind the counter brought out our tray of yum yums along with some bbq sauce for dipping. The bbq sauce was good but it doesn't go with the brisket. It takes away the smokiness of the meat. Th brisket is so tender and tasty and the burnt ends are really good too. The cornbread is the perfect consistency and the jalapenos are tasteful but don't issue any heat. You can also see the corn inside the cornbread too! My boo and I ate everything and it was the perfect amount of food between the two of us. So glad we got to try someplace new and we'll definitely be back for more in the future! Happy eats!

Great little bbq spot. Brisket and ribs were amazing. Sides are very good and fit character of the restaurant very well. I hope the back eating area is open in winter. I like to cruise all year round and would love to stop by in winter as well.

Probably the best barbecue spot in Long Island the ribs are perfect. The brisket is perfect and oh my God the chorizo is addictive, friendly service, easy parking. All the sides are made from scratch, which seems like it should be obvious but (local place here in Seacliff where I live get their salads and sides out of a Cisco 5 gallon tub which drives me up the wall! when you spend 12 hours on cooking brisket or more and can't take -1hr to make a large thing of coleslaw or potato salad. Stueys makes everything from scratch and it shows. Always a treat to sit at the counter for good food friendly convo and smiles

The place has room inside and a beautiful outside. Considering the weather was fabulous, we decided to stay outside. Once you come in, you are welcomed by friendly staff with a smile. The place smelled very promising! I ordered brisket, and my husband got half a rack of ribs and cole slow. My brisket was so juicy that it melted in the mouth. Every bite was so satisfactory! My husband's ribs were also delicious.
