What people say

The Meat Up Grill on Beach 116th Street is a must-visit American restaurant for anyone looking for delicious burgers and sandwiches. The menu boasts an array of mouth-watering options, including their famous smash burgers that are available from 4 pm every day and throughout the weekend. But it's not just about the burgers - the Chicken Caesar Salad Sando and Fried Cutlets "grandma style" with Calabrian Chile Pesto are also highly recommended.

One of the standout items on the menu is the ROCKA PHILLY Cheesesteak, which can be customized with your choice of cheese and toppings. And if you're in the mood for something different, try their Griddled Muffuletta Sandwich with Italian Ham, Mortadella, Salumi, Provolone, Fresh Mozz, and Olive-Pepper Giardiniera on the side.

But it's not just about the food - The Meat Up Grill has a great atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Their friendly staff and love for Rockaway make this restaurant a true gem. Don't forget to pair your meal with one of their thick strawberry milkshakes - it's the perfect way to end your dining experience at The Meat Up Grill.
