First time visit here today. My husband and I are from Chicago, and great barbecue is difficult to find nowadays. This place has a GREAT MENU. Ribs, brisket grilled cheese sandwich, baked beans, spinach casserole, coleslaw, cornbread muffin, chocolate frosted cake ALL DELICIOUS. My better half claims BEST PICKLES he's EVER had. So, YES, this is a MUST TRY !!! We will be going again, especially with family and friends, to prove to them there is still great barbecue around Chicago.

We used Sharko’s for our community wide BBQ and not only was the food terrific, Ron and his crew did a great job and helped make our event memorable. They served almost 400 people and everyone loved the food and the event. Thank you for a great evening!

It wasn't busy at all but the lady who greeted me was rude/borderline kinda racist. I didn't appreciate how she assumed I was picking up a delivery order as if I wasn't an actual customer/human being. It was weird, slightly condescending and rude. Won't be going back at all.

OMG! I was hit outside by the aroma, so that had me. When we entered we were greeted, very friendly. So many options. My husband got the Judges Plate (pork, brisket, 2 ribs and 2 sides- green beans baked beans). I got the chicken off the bone plate with mac n cheese and corn muffin and a lemonade to drink. When I say God came down and cooked this food, it was absolutely delicious 😋. Everything was seasoned, had just enough bbq, and the lemonade was just perfect. I will be visiting again. 5 stars across the board.

The food was cold during lunch time on a weekday, I even asked if it was fresh, they said yes. Could’ve been sitting out too long. Unsure but won’t come back

Visit this location very often. Food is always great, i think the part that really sets this place above the rest is the customer service. Hands down the best. I visited today and the young lady taking orders was pleasant and patient as always....but what really stuck out this visit was the young guy working the register. I didnt get his name but this kid deserves a raise. I seen 3 customers in there with a request and the only words out of his mouth were " i can do it if you would like. This included making custom jars of sauce, looking for a jar and making lemonade on spot and carrying a full catering order to a guys car. Kudos sharkos and thank you for giving this man the proper platform to perform a job id say extremely well done. I work in food service myself for last 25 years and it feels good to get the treatment i did.

Ribs and brisket were great. Front counter service was excellent.
Ordered a pig 4... The description is not clear and seems like you're getting 3.5 pints of sides. You're actually getting 3 and 1/2 total pints of sides. We actually went ahead and weighed them and you're not even getting that. In addition, we received the wrong sides and did not know till we got home. All the food was cold. Not sure if I'll ever go back
