"Another KBBQ spot in Chicago marked off my list, and I am greatly surprised by the fantastic service, warm & welcoming staff, and the quality of the meat. It's definitely on the pricy end and it does seem like they've recently raised their prices, but who hasn't? Inflation is costing us all a lot to dine out now. I see this place as the kind I would come to maybe on a bi-monthly basis because for two people, with three orders of meat (tongue, ribs, and brisket) and two Soju bottles, it came out to $150 not including the tip. Totally worth it though if you're ready to spend that kind of money. The tongue here is DELICIOUS. Great quality, and it's hard to even find tongue at a KBBQ spot in the greater Chicago metropolitan area, so kudos to this restaurant for offering it. Also, you can NEVER go wrong with a charcoal fire to cook your KBBQ. It's the best way too cook this tasty meat. Just keep in mind that you will have to cook it quick and eat it kind of quick because you don't want the grill just chillin' with fire and getting burned quicker. The server who assisted us for most of our experience was extremely friendly, and we actually forgot a credit card in the bill, and she ran outside and knocked on our car door window across the street to return it to us. So sweet! If you're looking for great service and excellent meat quality, make your way to Woo Chon BBQ in Budlong Woods!Just expect to pay a pretty penny."
"Decided to stop in for lunch and discovered that they had a Sunday brunch menu. I ordered the sausage breakfast sandwhich. It was served on a croissant. It was hard to hold like a sandwhich so I cut it. The sausage tasted just like the sausage you would get on a pizza. The Pico on top had a lot of onions in it. (More than I would have preferred). Served with a side of hash browns. (It was a small serving). They had cold brew coffee which was delicious. My friend's order was incorrect, but he just rolled with it. To me it was only ok."

"Heffer BBQ is a pop-up bbq spot, located inside the Whiner Beer Company.Their menu offers items such as brisket tacos, fries & smoked chicken wings, smoked brisket burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, smoked esquites, deviled egg potato salad, etc.Finding the spot was easy, as you go upstairs and it's to the back in your right.We ordered:+the smoked brisket burger +the smoked & fried chicken wings - you can choose between coffee bbq or mustard bbq sauce - we opted for the latter +the deviled egg potato salad +the bbq beans +the smoked esquitesEverything was tasty and presented well! Staff were friendly and welcoming.The place is nicely set up and cheerful, with plenty of comfortable seating.Plenty of parking in the area.+smoked brisket burger+friendly service+plenty of parking"
"otherwise known as I-57 Smokehouse across from the longtime veteran, I-57 Rib House that used 2 b goodwell.. it was an exciting day as we decided 2 do a taste test by getting ribs here 2 go n comparing it 2 another competitor.. competitor's identity kept secret.. this place won; although, it had a honey taste 2 the bbq sauce, it was more meaty n tenderAlso, I got 1 question Yelp.. can't u add that 1/2 star rating 2 ur reviews? b/c I don't feel this place is necessarily 4 star like I'm a fan.. it is more like it's between ok n goodChank Q"
"So tried this on a whim and I have to say this just is t awesome bbq, it is amazing Indian food and add it table top grills. What can I say other then run here order it all and enjoy some of the best food you are going to have. P.s. the naan is amazing, I know you say naan really. But dang can't be beat So close this app and go to Absolute now !!!"
"I love coming to Squabs for lunch. The food is extremely tasty and the service is friendly. The dinner plates are big enough to take half of your order Togo and eat later. My favorite plate is the chicken breast dinner or the chicken kabob which are always marinated/seasoned to perfection. The menu has a lot of variety so there's something for everyone. Unfortunately they serve their plates with plastic utensils so cutting up the food is sometimes a bit of a chore."
"I can always count on Hub's!This place always warrants at least 1 visit during a Chicago visit - I always get their Gyros Plate, extra well-done, which comes with a big buttered pita bread, fries, sliced tomatoes, extra onions, and their chunky tzatziki sauce. Make sure you don't sleep on their rice pilaf, as this is one of the best that I've tasted - so good, and adds as a yummy side to your entree.Their gyro meat is sliced well, crispy, and tasty!Service is always great, welcoming and friendly!Plenty of tables and booths inside, and there's a private lot to park your vehicle.+Gyros Plate+rice pilaf+friendly service+family-owned+small lot"
"Food was BOMB DIDDY! Tender rib tips with flavorful mouthfuls! Service was awesome! Was ready in 10mins for pickup! And ambiance was there. Cozy and friendly place with great customer service! Check 'em out!"
"We got the beef soondubu with kalguksu. 2 extra rice bowl. Yes we eat noodle and rice- it was very filling. The flavors are pretty good and the banchan is also pretty good. 1 order with 2 rice bowls was definitely enough for a small-to-average eater. Unless your goal is to have leftovers at home.Each item is pretty expensive. They are on average 17-26 bucks. They give a lot, but now if we have limited budget we can't get more variety! I mean a plate of galbi is $31, yikes.The menu is in english but korean language. There are pictures. But I feel like if you're not familiar with korean food, you'd struggle a little choosing what to get."
"Driving through the area, stopped by for lunch. I ordered a small catfish with fries. Catfish was simply delicious! It was 2 catfish filets cooked to perfection. Perfect combination of flaky & crunch. My fries just as ordered, salt & pepper with mild sauce. Excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was friendly & prompt. The steady flow of customers shows Browns Family BBQ & Soul is on the right track!"
"I had a pretty good experience here. I got the STL style ribs (half) with a side of Mac and cheese and sweet potato fries. I'm from St. Louis so I had high expectations for these ribs and they were good. They were a little on the dry side, but still tasty. My sweet potato fries were meh and not crispy at all. The Mac and cheese however was the star of the show in my opinion. They were so creamy and noodles cooked to perfection. I will definitely be getting that again. I was a little disappointed with service. The others in my party got the "Taste of daddy" platter, which allows you to choose two types of meats, but they ran out of one type and didn't ask them what they wanted instead they just gave them double of the same thing. Other than that I had a good experience."
"My wife and I loved it here!!! The food was so good!!! Rib tips were super tender - at other places I've had rib tips that were over cooked, charred and cheery but Ella's were awesome.The brisket and pulled pork were also fantastic. Super flavorful. The different sauces were sweet, spicy, tangy. Mac and cheese and beans were both great. The service here is very friendly, attentive. The woman behind the counter make our experience very welcoming; she was going above and beyond. It's a very clean spot. All tables were spotless. Would definitely come back!!! Great Chicago BBQ joint"

We are always on the search for good Korean barbeque when we are in Chicago and randomly found Woo Chon. The restaurant is nothing fancy, but if you ask me, that's how you know it's going to be good! And it did not disappoint! We ordered two different types of beef. Both were delicious! I really liked the marinated beef. Side dishes were great as well and we enjoyed a couple Korean beers. Our server was very friendly and helpful. In a slower neighborhood so parking wasn't an issue. There is a parking lot in the back. Highly suggest for no-fuss Korean barbeque!

Came here for the first time about a week ago with family, and I had a pretty good experience.When we walked in, the hostess told us to sit anywhere we wanted. We sat at a high top table, and our waitress came soon after. I wish I knew this place had an outdoor patio on the roof because I would have loved to sit up there; however, it was so hot the day we came, and we were sweaty from a Cubs game, so I guess it worked out that we didn't know about it anyway.The Piggery has a dive bar feeling inside with tvs everywhere and wooden furniture. There are string lights around the dining room, and the bar itself has many different taps. The restaurant was also clean when we were here, and it's obvious that the workers care about how the place looks.The menu isn't extensive, but there is a decent variety. They offer different bbq pork dishes, as well as entrées like tacos, salads, mac and cheese, and burgers. I ordered the tacos ($12.99), which were pretty good but not very filling. They were mix and match any 3, which I liked because I ordered two steak and one chicken tinga. The flavor was good, and both the chicken and steak were well-seasoned and cooked, but the tacos came with no side, and they didn't even double shell the corn tortillas. Consequently, while I was eating them, the tortilla broke, so all the filling constantly fell out.For an appetizer, our family shared the buffalo wings ($15.99 for 10) and the cheese curds ($11.99). The buffalo wings tasted like the generic normal buffalo wing, so there was nothing unique to them, but they were cooked perfectly and still tasted good. I honestly loved the cheese curds more because of their perfect balance of a crispy exterior with the soft, cheesy interior. They were delicious!When it came to service, our waitress was attentive and friendly. It was decently busy, and yet she consistently checked in on us. She was also the bartender and still found the time to help us. Good customer service is rare nowadays in restaurants, so we were very thankful for her!Overall, I'd come here again, but I want to take a look at the patio and also try some different menu options.

Another amazing trip to the best bbq in Chicago. Sampled the brunch menu Sunday. I had a brisket breakfast taco with eggs, beans and queso fresco as well as a hot link. Everything was amazing. As usual great quick service in a very cool setting.

I'm gonna give this awesome review with my fingers crossed that my great experience with this place lasts. I've returned after soso food from Best BBQ. Previously, the service was subpar and the ribs were slightly edible. Fast forward to now: this may be Chicago's best rib place. I've been twice within the last month and the ribs are tender down to the last morsel. The customer service is great in-person and over the phone. Recently someone asked me where to get good barbecue and I stated, "I don't know anyplace consistently good." That is, until now. Best BBQ also has I-57 Smokehouse on their signage to make sure you're in the right place.The hot links are the best ever. I hope this great food and excellent service continues because I've told everyone to try Best BBQ.

Ordered a lunch special today. Came back it's white rice butter chicken, 1 naan and some chicken appetizer. All the food was absolutely amazingly great!! I could have eaten 3 orders of it all!! Just enough heat, not too much!! And after I placed the order in store I received it rather quickly! I only docked them 1 star because the portion was kinda small (that butter chicken was so good! Needed more). Super good highly recommended!!!

On the SW corner of Mannheim and Fullerton, this was quite the busy place. A nice, Greek joint vibe with great gyros. Plenty of tables but, they seem to have a big carry-out clientele as well. We had practically perfect timing arriving at 11:10am. My co-worker got the Gyros Sandwich with fries and I ordered the big Gyros Plate (see photo) for $19.84. But, when the cook brought out two, full pans of beautifully, broasted chicken halves (it musta been several dozen!), it made us wish we'd ordered the Greek Chicken. Our other friend with us had the Combo Plate: Two Chicken Kabobs, Gyros with tsaziki, olives and feta on the side. The food came out pretty darn quick, though. At about twenty bucks a plate, there was a lot of food. Soon again, we'll be back to get some of that great, Greek Chicken, for sure.

"About a 1-1.5: Wagyu House Chicago by the X Pot has 2 other locations, one in Vega and one in LA.We made advance reservations for an earlier dinner for our group, which was super easy. The menu offers lunch specials, an AYCE yakiniku and wagyu meals at different tiers, an AYCE hot pot menu, as well as various apps and beverages.We went for the platinum level of the Wagyu AYCE Menu, with the added supplemental for the A5 Wagyu Experience - we tried the following meats:+the A5 strip loin steak+the A5 flank steak+the A5 otoro+the chef's special - wagyu cubesThe menu also includes apps, soups, sashimi, maki rolls, tartare, entrees, veggies, seafood/chicken dishes, and desserts. We tried:+black truffle edamame+chicken karaage+kimchi+spicy Japanese pickles+tempura shrimp+shrimp with garlic+miso butter salmon+garlic scallop+otoro uni caviar tartare+wagyu fried rice+wagy bibimbap+chili oil wagyu dumplings+salmon, yellowtail, sweet shrimp, and foie gras sashimi (note that the foie gras is limited per person)+wagyu uni caviar handroll (note that the specialty rolls are limited per person)+wagyu uni caviar nigiri (note that the specialty rolls are limited per person)+seared wagyu foie gras nigiri (note that the specialty rolls are limited per person)+otoro uni caviar hand roll (note that the specialty rolls are limited per person)Note that even though the menu specifically states that it's an 'AYCE', there are still 'limits' in terms of how much an individual can actually eat (such as the A5 strip loin steak, the A5 flank steak, the sashimi, and the specialty rolls...) - kind of a baiting situation, as it's not really what it's being advertised as. Why even include these items onto the menu?The supplemental charges do add up, and the value for the selection that's being provided is definitely not worth it.Service was fine, and the so-called 'immersive dining experience' was interesting; I felt that it was a way to distract the diners from really inspecting the quality of the food and what they were being served.No dice, Wagyu House.Free parking is available with validation.+'AYCE' menu is not an 'AYCE' menu+free parking with validation"
"Sweet and delicious bbq. I have tried the rib tips, turkey tips, grilled half chicken, and turkey link. Literally everything was awesome. FYI, this is not the vinegar based bbq sauce, it's sweet and tasty. I also tried the strawberry lemon drop and the Wilma Punch. Both were good if you like sweet drinks. I had a lemon and lime squeezed in for some zing."
"After a nice weekend in Chicago, I was anxious to hit the Chinatown on our way back out of town and stock up on some of my favorite Chinese baked goods. Being there around lunchtime necessitated a stop in for some BBQ meats too, and that is where New Great Wall BBQ came in for our group. Upon entering the establishment, there were several different tables to choose from, and the waitress was quick to provide menus. I opted for the 3-meat plate and got BBQ pork (char siu), Roast Duck (siu ngaap), and crispy pork belly (siu yuk). The portion was generous and easily shared between my wife and I. We also gave bites to my young sons who enjoyed the BBQ pork quite a bit. Flavors were good, service was quick, and I'll definitely be back during the next Chicago stopover."
"I lived in Chicago for 20 years, starting in December of 2000. My friend lived nearby, on Clark and Byron which was two blocks away. This was the first bar I went to when I arrived. Neighborhood joint, but also good enough for people to make it a destination spot to visit. The Southport corridor has changed so much over the past two decades...bars and restaurants coming and going, upscale retail buildings replacing old one story strip malls. But Toons has endured and also thrived. I never lived in a big city before, and it was a crazy experience. I first lived near Lake Michigan on Sheridan- but still came up to Lakeview to play pool and for the first time I saw an indoor shuffle puck game in a bar. The freezer where they keep the popular liquors cold for shots is the same. Reminds me of my childhood and now is covered in stickers and decorations where you cannot find one open millimeter. It felt like nothing has changed since that night just under 23 years ago. My friend Sean now has worked here for almost 3 years now, and I disclose that while stating that he didn't when I first visited so that this is a genuine review of this place. Ally was also friendly, professional and easy to chat with. The entire team looked out for me, Tyler asking if I needed any utensils, extra items, refills- I never needed to ask for anything whatsoever. Laney was also super friendly, turns out we have a couple mutual friends. I'm in town visiting as many friends as I can, while helping my good buddy promote his new tequila line by making introductions- and decided to come by here and get something to eat before going back to my hotel for the night. It's 8 PM and the bar is busy but I was told "it's a slow night" I miss Chicago. Tonight on special was Annie's famous Wisconsin beer cheese soup. Sold! Got a bowl and it came piping hot, hearty with veggies and potatoes and a hot roll that I broke up like mini croutons and devoured it. By the time I remembered to take a photo it was almost gone so I am sorry for that photo heh heh.The food coming out of the kitchen is flying out at an incredible pace. I could watch this all evening. I ordered the popcorn shrimp and asked to sub out the fries with tater tots. Look at the photo below! These are not your ordinary popcorn shrimp. These are essentially actual shrimp (tail free!) and comes with Buffalo sauce and homemade Blue cheese dressing and some truly tasty pickle chips for a relief from all the fried items. I'm really happy to take a trip down memory lane and had an amazing meal while catching up with a friend I haven't seen in a while. Also bumped into some folks I knew from when I lived here- just another part of the amazing place and experience that is Toons. Support small owned businesses! Come on by, eat some great food, and have a few drinks and make some lifelong friends. Thanks to the team here at Toons for making a guy who came alone to eat feel like a part of the family/team dynamic. I gotta give my bud Sean a shout out for introducing me to everyone. Now I'm feeling the food coma coming on so I'm off to my hotel for some much needed sleep!"
"You can Smell the delicious BBQ from the streets as I park for parking. Ordered the ribs tips and cheese burger. A nice lady took my order didn't quite catch her name it was pretty busy. The Vibe was a quick in & out spot. It was about 4 people ahead of me but the line moved quickly. Took about 20mins for my order to be ready. Timing was perfect, leaving the beach Alice's bbq was on the way home, could not have been a better time."
"I harkened back to the 1980's at Leon's on the corner of 83rd & Cottage Grove and French fries smothered in "Leon Sauce" so when my wife said "barbecue for Mother's Day" I immediately jumped on-line and ordered a slab, tip-link combo and large fries with extra sauce. This location off 63rd & Stony Island may be "new" but this food is consistently DELICIOUS. I have no idea what the relationship is to the other two "Leon's" locations that claim to be the "original," but this location was started by my dear friend Dr. Leon Finney, Jr., and this food is authentic and amazing!"
"Chicago Kalbi is a long time Albany Park favorite for unique Asian cuisine. It has more than it looks. Sure the place is small, but they can somehow get all this food out. For many they consider this the best place for Korean barbecue. This is a great long time local business that's been family owned for years. After coming from a few bars, we needed something to eat. In comes this place, or actually we came to this place. This is one of the many ethnic restaurants in Albany Park, and one of the best in the city to get Korean barbecue for sure. Not just barbecue. Of course vegetarians can get something. A few choices. We came later one evening after hanging around at some bars around here. Even though it's mostly meaty stuff, we found a few vegetarian items. We got the Yasai Gyoza, which were pretty cool looking. It's $7 for quite a bit. These are green colored things that look like potstickers. For sure would come here again. It's one of the favorites for Korean in the city, according to many lists and polls. Take a trip up here and try some things."
"Looking forward to returning. Went with a girlfriend for K bbq and luckily this was near by. There is a decent variety for grilling meats ...mostly beef, few pork options, some chicken and seafood. We tried many of the chef recommended items in the menu. The beef flavors were just okay. The marinade isn't overpowering. The shrimp was really good. The little ban Chan dishes could be better. I wish kimchi wasn't an extra charge. They have some tasty spicy salads and soon dubu with whole shrimp that is included in the AYCE menu."
"I've been wanting to come here for a while now. I have always been hesitant in trying this place out. I've heard some good things about them, but it didn't seem like my type of bbq joint. All I can say is I've been missing out. I called in my order and the staff was great on the phone and in person. The place was also packed. It was small inside with an old school vibe, but I can definitely see why it's busy. The ribs were damn delicious. I've always said there's two types of bbq food. Smoked bbq with a great rub, doesn't need bbq sauce. And then there's bbq food that isn't smoked and doesn't have a great rub, that one usually requires bbq sauce. And the sauce better be good. Twin Anchors is the latter. The ribs were perfectly cooked and literally falls off the bone. They're unfortunately not the best on their own, but their Prohibition Sauce is definitely one of the best bbq sauces out there. It's a sweet and spicy sauce and it's very addicting. I also ordered their half chicken to mix things up but I did regret not ordering two full slabs instead. The chicken was dry, lacked flavor and on the smaller side. I would have preferred for them to cut each piece individually to make it look like there's more food. I ordered this with their mild sauce which was ok. It reminded me of another bbq sauce that I wasn't a big fan of in the suburbs. I also ordered their creamed spinach which was really good and a baked potato which I also regret ordering. I will definitely be returning for their ribs and ribs alone."
"My recent dining experience at Jiang Niu BBQ House was truly exceptional. The restaurant's ambiance strikes a perfect balance between cozy and contemporary, with rustic decor and dimmed lighting creating an inviting, intimate setting perfect for any occasion.

The meats are expertly prepared, with a smoky aroma and unmatched tenderness. The interactive dining experience takes you beyond the ordinary, allowing you to enjoy a diverse array of flavors. A delightful assortment of appetizers sets the stage, but the real star is the barbecue selection, which features a variety of meats cooked to absolute perfection. The restaurant's "unlimited" concept allows you to keep the succulent offerings coming by ordering a barbecue platter. The ability to sample a range of flavors, each more tantalizing than the last, is a true highlight. Complementing the meats are an array of delectable sauces that enable you to customize your culinary journey, creating a memorable and personalized dining experience. Jiang Niu BBQ House offers an unforgettable culinary adventure that will linger in your memory long after your visit. From the warm ambiance to the attentive service and the unparalleled Korean barbecue experience with its unlimited selection of meats, this restaurant has undoubtedly earned its place as a top dining destination. If you're in search of an extraordinary dining experience in a welcoming setting, I wholeheartedly recommend Jiang Niu BBQ House. You're in for a delightful culinary journey you won't soon forget!"
"I picked up a couple pizzas from here that I ordered online. I ordered a 12" Pep 2.0 for $19. The pizzas was honestly to small to justify that price, but did taste good. The crust was burnt at the bottom, which was perfect and topped with ricotta, Parmesan, fresh basil and orange habanero honey. Really good pizza, but very pricey. I also ordered their 20" Margherita pizza. This one came at an amazing value for $26. It was huge. A lot bigger than I thought it would be, but just lacked flavor. It came with your traditional Burrata cheese, fresh basil as marinara sauce and then topped with olive oil. It did lack flavor and didn't taste like a traditional margherita pizza should. The crust wasn't as perfectly cooked as the Pep 2.0. Perhaps a more burnt crust would have improved the overall flavor the pizza. Overall Dimos was pretty good. They have some creative pizzas. I would however group Dimos, in the same category as Dominoes and Pizza Hut. Fast food pizza. Except Dimos is serving traditional brick oven pizzas with a little less love. They also offer slices, which is a huge plus if you want to try one of their creative pizzas without investing on a whole pizza. I can definitely see myself returning here."
"The real deal. Closer and less expensive than a trip to Pakistan. Enormous portions (two people can absolutely share one main course) and a high default level of spice are the watchwords here. The colorful and voluble customers make the experience. Modest facility with a single, much-used bathroom and dedicated parking. Your correspondent likes not loves the kitchen's sensibilities but is equally unqualified to pass judgment on its level of authenticity. The milk-in tea isn't a favorite but certainly is ubiquitous in authentic Pakistani food joints. Rice is very competent and good without being the bestest. The freshly-made naan bread is, however, not to be missed."
"The best Grecian chicken love their food simply one of the best fast food places to eat on 63rd Cicero"
"Passed by here the other day and I was intrigued so stopped in. When I entered I saw they have a station where you can place your order on your own and then pick it up. I placed my order that way and when I was preparing to pay I found that they don't have a way for you to use digital wallets at that station; a credit card is required. The employee made some comment that suggested perhaps they were going to fix that so it can at some point take digital wallets but I don't know if he was just saying that or not. Anyway, that was kind of annoying, just make sure to bring your card if you decide to use that or you can order at the counter and you can use a digiwallet.The chicken was okay. I liked the soy ginger flavor though it wasn't very strong. I also got the kalbi one we could share and it was really good. I don't think I've ever had short rib before, but this is what I'd order if I visit again. It made me think, is this what Korean BBQ tastes like all the time (as opposed to this just being their seasoning/saucing)? If so I've been missing out on it for sure.The potstickers were ok. I think they would have been good if they were steamed but they are fried here and that's not my preference. I got one of their dessert things but it wasn't my bag. It tasted to me like circus peanuts, which is a candy I hate with a fiery passion. There was no one here when I stopped in but they have plenty of seating including a counter at the front of the restaurant. Parking doesn't exist anywhere but on the street here, which can be tricky."
"What a great place! Everyone is so friendly and the food is amazing. I had a pulled pork sandwich that came with a huge portion of pulled pork on it. The boardwalk style fries were addictive, and the vanilla milkshake was really delicious. Seating could be limited but didn't have to wait for a table on a Saturday. Everyone seems very considerate. Really happy to find a great bbq place close to home."
"Great food!! Awesome service and awesome rib tips! It's our go to spot after we go out for drinks!"
"I love this place! Food is always fresh and there service is outstanding! I fell in love after my first visit!"
"I've been wanting to come here for years, and apparentlt, it's the first Black-owned barbecue spot in Chicago. I'm happy to report that I was well pleased with my visit. The vibes were immaculate (customers and workers were both lovely and fun to chat with while we waited), and lots of regulars coming in. The food was delicious - we got the rib tips and links combo as well as an order of fried shrimp. The prices are great, and I do wish I'd tried their fried chicken too (just to sample), since other people seemed to really like it. I especially enjoyed the tips and the fried shrimp was wonderful (I admit I love a fried item and fried shrimp in general might be one of my perfect foods). But definitely get the rib tips and links because that's what they're known for.As an FYI, My friend and I came here on a spring night and unsurprisingly, there was a bit of a line. I'd read reviews talking about lines in winter, so I was ready to wait. I would definitely factor that in if you're a newbie like me, so don't come too hungry because it's also takeout only, so you'll have to factor in transporting it home."
"This is what you call "Hood Ribs" because if you are looking for Carson type ribs you would be going to the wrong place.Now, if you sometimes just want the grease and sauce slathered over some meaty rib tips then you would love this place.Now, I didn't give it 5 stars because although I enjoyed my rib tips some were hard and uneatable. It was 14.75 for the large tips but they gave you enough to feed at least 3 people depending on how much you eat.This is a cash only or cash app establishment so make sure you don't bring the plastic because there isn't a close ATM machine around.Due to the pandemic at least when I went you could not eat in the restaurant. I also got the chicken wings and they were fresh and tasty. I didn't add sauce to them because I didn't want them to come home soggy so I just dipped them in my sauce with the tips.I can't wait to go back and get some "Hood Ribs" they will definitely be my go to guilty pleasure once a month.As always...Enjoy and be Safe!!!"
"Doug really helped hook it up with the catering. My work team was gathering together in the office for lunch and I figured this would be perfect for a summertime meal. Yes it's a bit heavy but oh so good. We got a salad ribs, brisket, chicken, Cheesy cauliflower, Corn, And green beans. everything was so delicious and flavorful. The sauces were amazing. I would totally order from here again."
"Loaded Brisket Crinkle Fries We made a stop here last night before the Suns vs Bulls game and it was honestly D to the E to the L I C I O U S!!! We honestly can say that we will be coming back for future games! Really really really good meat and entrees to choose from! I can't believe we've always just passed this but not anymore! And the service made this so fast and they were really nice!"
"Use to be my favorite bbq place but it's gone downhill over the years. This bbq spot is a hit or miss majority of the time with staff and food. If the place is busy (mostly weekends and fridays) you'll know as STAFF DO NOT ANSWER THE PHONE, if they do you are greeted with a bad demeanor and cannot place orders over the phone due to rush sales or peak hours. On a relaxed day it's the opposite. I typically order the rib tips but sometimes you get what I call "scrapped meat". It's basically shredded pieces of really tough meat and bones. I've had more plates of scraps rather than actual rib tips. The bbq sauce is tasty whether it's hot or mild but there's a charge for extra sauce if you prefer a more saucy plate. I believe all orders come with bread."
