About Firewater BBQ & Brew- Crest Hill

Firewater BBQ & Brew offers delicious BBQ, with polite and kind staff, as reported by multiple customers. The restaurant has been a favorite for over 8 years for some. Customers praise the food, especially the brisket, which is tender and flavorful with just the right amount of fat, and the ribs with great Smoky flavor. The signature BBQ sauce is highly appreciated, often described as addictive, making customers wish the restaurant was open 24/7. The brisket is enjoyed with their sweet BBQ sauce, and the cornbread is good, though some feel it could be improved with a little butter. The 3 cheese mac and cheese is served plain but can be easily mixed for better taste.

However, some customers have experienced unexpected additional charges on credit/debit card transactions, which they found misleading. One visitor noted that the food was often served barely warm, and while tasty, it would be better if it were served at the right temperature. Others mentioned that the placement of the brisket on plain white bread was a bit odd, and some found the pickles served to be sweet rather than dill, though still tasty. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall experience remains positive, and many customers plan to return, sometimes opting for takeout to enjoy their meals warm at home.
