Thank you for your response. What went wrong today, and is the problem fixed?Very disappointed.$15 Turkey tips were so gross. Boiled? I wouldn’t eat them for free. Wish I had only gotten the $4 fries.

The attention to detail is zero. Your store hours say open but your actual location is closed. Bad for business

I order the turkey tips and beef tips. When I say both melt in your mouth ☺. The aroma was smelling thru the car. Couldn't wait till I got home. Pull in the driveway and had to taste. Now its time to go in. Movie, food and wine perfection ?. The only thing was no side dishes. They were out!

Very tasty. Liked the sauce!

Best tips and links over Best, I-57(easily) and any other place, except maybe the old Ribs Unlimited, on 79th and Loomis... Links were not overcooked, moist and delicious... Tips didn't have that high ratio of overcooked tips, like those others.. Sauce on point...I come again and again to this spot!

This was my 1st visit. Great service, good food. At the time they weren't taking phone orders, so I orderd at the window, it was a 20min wait. I waited in my car, it was ready on time. I ordered tips for my husband at the last minute, they got it ready in less than 5min. I ordered a small turkey link, they were a little stingy with the fries that comes with the order. But the links was a nice size, not too hot to enjoy. My husband enjoyed a small rib tip it also came with fries. Both ordered could have use more of the tasty sauce. Will come back.

When they cook it right, is DELICIOUS, the runs are ski good n tender, and the chicken is Fye.. best chicken I had n a minute. That was the 1st time we went. The 2nd time, if was ok, but not like that 1st time. Don't know if they have more than I cook there, maybe that's the difference. You can offer over the phone and the phone rings forever n at times does not get answered at all.

They are very ridiculous. I come in today and they were out of fries and said they dont know when they are coming. No problem, can I get a substitute no we dont substitute. They don't take off money on the order either. Its horrible that this is a black owned business. Just ridiculous save your money and time.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AT THIS PLACE. NO FOOD IS THAT GOOD. I VISITED THIS LOCATION ON SUNDAY MARCH 14, MONDAY MARCH 15 AND TODAY MARCH 19. I VISITED THE LOCATION ALL 3 TIMES ATTEMPTING TO TRY THEIR "BEEF RIBS". SUNDAY THE CONVERSATION GOES LIKE THIS: (ME) DO YOU HAVE BEEF RIBS? (79TH STREET BBQ) NO WE JUST SOLD OUR LAST ORDER. (ME) DO YOU HAVE ANY BURNT ENDS? (79TH STREET BBQ) NO. (ME) OK LAST QUESTION, DO YOU HAVE BEEF BRISKET? (79TH STREET BBQ) WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE BEEF. MIND YOU I ATTEMPTED TO CALL BEFORE I WENT OUT THERE AND TO MY SURPRISE THE PHONE JUST RANG AND EVENTUALLY, GOES TO THE VOICEMAIL ONLY TO HEAR THE MAILBOX IS FULL AND UNABLE TO LEAVE A MSG. SO I TRY AGAIN MONDAY (BECAUSE THE GOOGLE LISTING SAYS OPEN 12-8PM AND I WANT SOME OF THOSE BEEF RIBS) SHOCKER THEY ARE CLOSED UNTIL WEDNESDAY (HAND WRITTEN NOTE LEFT ON THE DOOR SMH). LAST ATTEMPT FOR THESE "BEEF RIBS" FRIDAY I TRY TO CALL 1ST BUT SAME THING "MAILBOX IS FULL AND UNABLE TO LEAVE MSG. SO I DRIVE TO THE SPOT ARRIVING AT 12:45ish AND THE DOOR IS LOCKED (SHOCKER). I SEE THE LIGHTS ON SO I KNOCK. SOMEONE COMES AND UNLOCKS THE DOOR. I PROCEED TO ORDER... (ME) DO YOU HAVE ANY "BEEF RIBS" (79TH STREET BBQ) NO. AT THIS POINT I'M DONE (MAD AS HELL). I'M OVER THIS PLACE. I LET THEM HAVE IT. (ME)"THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST BUSINESS I'VE EVER ATTEMPTED TO SUPPORT". YOU ADVERTISE PRODUCTS YOU DON'T HAVE, YOU MAKE BUSINESS HOURS ACCORDING TO THE WAY YOU FEEL AND YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE THE DECENCY TO ANSWER THE PHONE TO TELL CUSTOMERS YOUR MODIFIED DAILY HOURS AND WHAT'S AVAILABE TODAY FROM WHATEVER YOU FELT LIKE COOKING FROM THE MENU TODAY. I TOLD THEM I WILL NEVER, EVER, PATRONIZE THEIR BUSINESS NEVER EVER AGAIN. I ALSO TOLD THEM THEY WERE THE TYPICAL BUSINESS THAT I SO HATE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS STEROTYPED FOR.

Ordered a small tip/link combo, paid almost $20 for a tray full of sauce, tough tips, half cooked hot links, fries that were precooked. Very disappointed..

Darnell Payne

Told immediately there were no pork tips or link *should have left then* ordered burnt ends for 24.99 received a half of small carton with mushy pot roast covered in a delicious sauce. Beef links were great recieves 3 instead of 4 and we told there would be a 6 dollar upxharge if i wanted a combo meal. So after spending 54 dollars to buy two separate items we still had to go to best BBQ on 115 st to get enough good to feed my family
