18 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Deerfield

“My wife and I were seated promptly at the bar on Friday night with our reservation. Drinks were delivered and were generous: my Macallan 12 year old was almost a double! Meal was served within 30 minutes: fantastic ribs, bbq pork chop, twice baked stuffed potato, coleslaw, creamed spinach. Perfection! $120 with top and tax. We will be back!“

“They catered a lunch for 15. The food was excellent and they’re great to work with. #iraeats.“

“This is the first time my family and I are here. This restaurant has been around for 3 years and somehow, it has gone under my radar and I'm mad about it. Lol. The food here is fantastic and the family that runs this restaurant is super kind and generous. Excellent sized portions which makes this a tremendous bang for your buck. Umm, the gyro here...best kept secret (not any longer, I guess) Be sure to try the sage tea! Everything was so wonderful that I can't wait to go back and try something new!“

“My daughter and I traveled from DC to Chicago for a cheerleading competition. We decided to try Porky's... I am not making this up, hands down the best BBQ I've had in years. The combo sandwich with brisket and pork, is phenomenal. The Porkys Beans with brisket, left me speechless. Outstanding customer service to go along with the great taste. Honestly wish I lived in the area, so I could eat here more often.“

“I came to a private event at Shaevitz. The staff was very kind and welcoming, the food was fantastic. The brisket and burgers are very flavorful. Shaevitz is conveniently located in downtown Highland Park with plenty of parking in the area. Supporting a conservative Kosher business is definitely a plus.

Will definitely return.“

“Pretty good restaurant. Food is good and would give it a 4 out of 5 stars. My favorites are the Lemon Pork Belly and the short ribs. 4 out of 5 The staff was polite, though on some occasions fell rushed. Everyone is friendly, but you can definitely tell the difference when you get a vet to a newbie. 5 out of 5 for friendly vibes, 3 out of 5 for attentiveness, like needing to ask several times for items. It can be a bit overwhelming I imagine for the newer staff. Price is good for what you get. I recommend the premium menu, though there is upcharge for ramen. 5 out of 5. I think it’s a solid 4 out of 5 for me. Pretty good even if the process isn’t always streamlined.“

“I enjoyed the brisket and green beans; however, I didn't care for the Bama chicken. The restaurant was nice and clean. They offered several different bbq sauces, which was nice. The person who waited on us was efficient but not very friendly.“

“An excellent Chinese BBQ place run by a very friendly and knowledgeable couple. They really know the art of BBQ and everything is cooked and prepared to perfection. The BBQ chef there had been around for at least a decade back from before the current owners took over the shop.

The prices are very reasonable and the taste authentic. The best part is buying BBQ from here saves me the time and hassle of going to Chinatown.“

“Really good food with wonderful waitstaff. #iraeats“

“My entire family devoured our food. We were comatose afterwards. We ordered rib tips, turkey, brisket, & half chicken. The meat was so good & tender. Baked beans were surprisingly delicious as well. However, $25 pp, complimentary cornbread would have been appreciated. Lasrly, the Mac & cheese was bland but edible.“

“We got the BBQ Salmon, Brisket, Shrimp and the owner even tossed in a fantastic Greek Salad on the house. This place is walking distance from home, definitely coming back with the family“

“Incredible experience. Very cool interior, the staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating, and the food was absolutely outstanding. We got the Kal Bi and Pork Kimchi Bokum. It was an absolute FEAST for 2 for about $65. Came with 5 sides (plus refills), rice, soup, lettuce for wraps, etc. and topped it off with a couple Haagen Dazs ice cream bars. One of the best culinary experiences we’ve had in quite some time! Thank you Chungkiwa!“
