• Barbecue • Newark

Vibe BBQ is an inviting and casual, all-day celebration of American comfort classics, putting house-smoked meats at the center of the plate. "I've been in this country for over 30 years, and BBQ has been one of the cuisines that I have loved most. It's a food that is known as classic American, but it's also about the culture, the taste, the feel, and the vibe for me. Eating with hands, eating outside, eating in someone's backyard with family and friends. I'm drawn to the vibe of BBQ, which is where the name comes from. BBQ culture lives here like nowhere else."

Dolly Varden was the PERFECT cocktail spot for a birthday get-together I had before a show:) The staff was so nice and attentive to my larger party of 14, and the vibe of the place and decor made it feel like a Christmas cabin getaway. Every drink we had was amazing and the food was wonderful as well! Will surely be back!

If I tell how fabulous the food is, it will just make it harder for me to get in next time. So why would I tell anyone that they make the best baked clams in the city? Or the veal chop smothered in peppers is to die for the fact I have been coming here for over thirty years and the quality hasn’t changed shouldn’t influence anyone to go to Montes so do me a favor and go somewhere else

Very nice spot (we were in a teardrop on the rooftop). The whole team was very friendly, the atmosphere is what you want it to be (individual control of the sound/light), and the view on the city is stellar.
