Mighty Quinn’s BBQ opening in Garden City

Long Island’s first Mighty Quinn’s BBQ restaurant is slated to open in Garden City next month.

Jason Wotman, the New York City-based chain’s area franchisee, plans to open the restaurant at 829 Franklin Ave. on Sunday, August 9.

The eatery was supposed to open months ago, but the opening was postponed after construction delays and the state’s coronavirus shutdown pushed it back. The new restaurant has outdoor seating for 30 people and 57 seats inside.

The Mighty Quinn’s chain opened its first restaurant in Manhattan in 2012 and it now has 11 locations, mostly around the New York metropolitan area.

Wotman plans to eventually open two more Mighty Quinn’s on Long Island.
