21 best things we ate on Long Island in 2025

Rooh’s BBQ Smoked Meat and Steakhouse in West Hempstead is more than a delicious meal — dinner there is an experience. All your senses are in for a treat as they have daily fire shows to dazzle guests. For those wanting a luxurious option, their smoked Wagyu brisket ($44.99) or Wagyu tomahawk encrusted with edible gold leaf ($199) is a must-try. The meat is juicy, tender, smoky and falls right off the bone. Other options include the hot mezze platter ($34.99) that includes two Middle Eastern sambousek (meat-filled pastries similar to empanadas) with Turkish sausages and fried kebabs. More Info: 495 Hempstead Tpke., #499, West Hempstead, 516-280-2896, roohsbbqsmokedmeatsteakhouse.com.
