Smokehouses in Chicago, IL

“The oysters were on point and the barbecue was unexpectedly fabulous. As a southerner I am quite particular and they knocked it put of the park with the choices of bbq. The listing for their bubbly happy hour was a bit confusing and I think they should change their menu. But the drinks were amazing and I will certainly be visiting again ASAP.“

“I went here as a recommendation and came out a huge fan! The sauce is perfect and everything was cooked to perfection! It was even better seeing some of my former students serving and killing it! I truly recommend Lexington Betty Smokehouse!“

“The best goulash and meat products.They do smoke the sausage and salmon here. Steaks are high quality, aged well.

Vegetarian options: Stuffed peppers with rice and vegetables, delicious cabbage,Feta goat cheese .

Parking: They have free parking on the side, and paid parking right by their entrance.“

“Hands-down worst BBQ place in Chicago if not the nation. Don't look, don't ride pass, & pleeeease don't stop in here and WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The brisket dry, the ribs uncooked, and the fries was hard asf. You'd be better spending your $50-$100 at the grocery store and make your own bbq. I'LL NEVER BE BACK AND WILL MAKE IT MY MISSION TO TURN ANYONE I KNOW AWAY FROM THIS ESTABLISHMENT. To hell!!!“

“I ordered a Half Slab of Baby Back Ribs, 1/2 lb of Beef Brisket (burnt ends), and a small side of Mac and Cheese. The portions of meat were generous and well-seasoned, generously coated in BBQ sauce, making them quite delicious. However, the Mac and Cheese did not meet expectations and needs improvement. I was taken aback by the restaurant's size; it was quite small. As someone in a wheelchair, I had difficulty making a 360-degree turn due to the narrow waiting area. Despite this, the atmosphere was pleasant, filled with the enticing aroma of BBQ, and the chef was friendly and laid-back. Overall, I recommend Medley's BBQ and plan to return to try their Turkey Tips and Fried Chicken Skins.“
