Studio Hotrods Smokehouse is a restaurant that offers a variety of smoked meats and unique holiday drinks. The mac and cheese is a customer favorite, while the BBQ, including brisket and rib tips, receives high praise. The atmosphere is cool with live music on Fridays and Saturdays, and Bible verses can be found throughout the establishment. The staff is known for their friendliness and engagement. Customers from Chicago's south side drive specifically to dine there, and the servings are generous. The dessert options are also worth saving room for.
The restaurant has received positive reviews from customers. One customer was initially hesitant about the price of the beveled door handle/lock cylinder gaskets, but found the end result to be well worth the price and plans to purchase a set for their other vehicle. Another customer praised the outstanding food, particularly the mac and cheese brisket, and mentioned that the owner, Harry, was present and engaging with customers. The bartender, Ryan, was also praised for his excellent service. A third customer highlighted the expensive but amazing Bloody Mary, which included smoked meat sliders, especially the burnt ends, and mentioned their server, Holly, who provided a thorough rundown of the sauces and smokers.
