“What an experience! I’m a BBQ snob and this place met my standards. My opinion: love the ribs, burnt ends, hot links, pulled pork, mac n cheese and chicken. Liked the brisket, turkey, sweet potato fries. Baked beans weren’t my favorite.
Now for my favorite part of the experience… out waitress Kylie (I hope I got her name right). She was phenomenal. She knew just when to check in and provided outstanding service. Best waitress I have ever had.“

“Oh my goodness. The best BBQ we have had in Illinois. We have traveled to Tennessee, Missouri, Chicago and all over the Chicago suburbs and this place takes the cake. (Peg leg in Nashville still is the over all best we’ve had) We happened upon Porkey’s after our Chicago plans fell through. Wow!!!!!!!!!! We had several plates of meat, a kids meal, sides, and dessert and our bill was less than $50. The staff were friendly, attentive and they offered great suggestions. I was so satisfied with our whole experience. From beginning to end a great flipping meal. They also had the bears pre season game on. Everything was so tasty. I will say this… and it may be fighting words, but their lumpia were better than stix and noodles. We had brisket sandwich, 1/2 lb of pulled pork, chicken fingers, a bao bun, brisket lumpia and bread pudding. On sundays they also have apple cider donuts so yeah we had those too! 5 stars from beginning to end.“

That's not even the best part, the best part was the Kimchi fried rice at the end they served... Was very satiated.

Overall, amazing experience, amazing staff, and amazing time.“

“4.75 stars?
We eat Korean food often and in many different cities. This place was pretty legit. Great authentic flavors.
The bugolgi was delicious, the dumplings were good and the Japchae (chapchae) was amazing.
Honestly the cost is great as a lot of Korean BBQ places overcharge but not here.
Highly recommend it.“
