Haven’t had Barbecue like this since Alice on 43rd between Wabash and Michigan Ave. Moreover Alice , there’s a new Queen and King of Barbecue. It’s the best! I have recommended their food to everyone I know. So far no disappointments!“

“excellent food and service“

“I went here as a recommendation and came out a huge fan! The sauce is perfect and everything was cooked to perfection! It was even better seeing some of my former students serving and killing it! I truly recommend Lexington Betty Smokehouse!“

“Hands-down worst BBQ place in Chicago if not the nation. Don't look, don't ride pass, & pleeeease don't stop in here and WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The brisket dry, the ribs uncooked, and the fries was hard asf. You'd be better spending your $50-$100 at the grocery store and make your own bbq. I'LL NEVER BE BACK AND WILL MAKE IT MY MISSION TO TURN ANYONE I KNOW AWAY FROM THIS ESTABLISHMENT. To hell!!!“

“Was recommended this restaurant from a friend. The maple tree and did not disappoint. Made a reservation online easy. Their menu is awesome, simple and delicious. Crab cake was perfect! Our dinner was fantastic. We had trout and shrimp. They have the best banana pudding over crème brûlée. The coffee for an end cap was out of this world good!“

“All around great food, great atmosphere..“

“The food was so good but a bit pricey. The service was excellent. We enjoyed the ribs.

It was frustrating that seats are first come first served. I wish they would take reservations ahead of time. We decided to stop before our flight and it took way longer than expected.“

“Got food tonight it was hot and fresh. Beans are a little spicy but very good food. I like this location better than others in the area!“

“This place came up on my facebook reels multiple times!! Living in NW IN found that it was an hour and a half to get there. Saturday my brother and I decided to take a road trip!! Well worth the drive. The food was fantastic. The server Anna was great. The manager Ken came by the table often to make sure everything was to our liking. We will definitely make the trip again and bring other family members with us.“

“Excellant tasting food, and I was a Sous Chef at Chez Paul in the early eighties . I totally know my mixtures and taste relation! This establishment has it together. God Bless the retired Fireman and Police officer! There is no better tasting Rib House around the South Side than 911 ! GENTLEMEN the rib tips are heavenly!?“

“Hands down the best barbecue around. The staff is fantastic, the prices are more than fair, and most importantly the food has me coming back at least once or twice a week. Joe has always been fantastic, always making sure I get exactly what I’m looking for and even has looked out for me more than once with allergies.“

“Catered Nick's in Tinley Park for a Grad Party. Everything was great! Food was delicious, delivered on time and generous portions for a great price! Highly recommend!!“

“Let me start off by saying, I rock with this place!! I’ve been going for years since the smaller location. The customer service on this experience was HORRIBLE!! I asked for extra sauce on my Jumbo tip and link combo, small turkey tip, and 6 wings ($55). When the cashier relayed the request to the lady who was preparing the food she got a real crappy attitude like I was asking for too much. I guess because they were almost closing. I asked her what she said and she went all off. “I wasn’t talking to you I was talking to her!” I asked what her name was and she refused to give it to me. No name tags present or I wouldn’t have asked. Then she directed me to the manager who was also preparing food for any concerns that I may have. I asked the manager Nivia Battle (I think that’s what she said) was she required to give me her name. She said no. Her attitude was crappy as well. Just negative energy behind the glass. Except for the cashier. I also told the that they need to improve their customer service and that I WILL BE BACK!! I have no complaints about my order at all. Food was great!!! They just need to get someone back there that’s actually going to do their job without being so nasty.“

“Forget the girl at Burger King...Noriah ( I hope I am saying her name correctly) at Lawrence's in CC Hills, Illinois should get the soul food employee of the year! She handled about 8-10 customers taking orders, cooking food, chopping up rib tips, slicing cake, grilling fish, boxing food...plus more! I was so impressed! She was AMAZING! I will be back for those rib tips soon! Thank you so much for your wonderful service! 😀“

“Food and drink- awesome - awesome!“

“My husband had the burger & parmesan fries. He said his meal was really good. I got the filet steak & sweet potato. It was ok. I personally thought it was to pricey 32.00 when all my meal came with was a small steak & small sweet potato, no vegetable or salad. Was not worth the price. I should of got the burger!“

“Hands down the best, excellent proportions, and the sauce is to die for, also price is reasonable.“

“We have been going here since it opened and it never disappoints. We love the wide variety of meat and the fact that you can do kbbq and hotpot at the same time. Truly a place to enjoy food. 😁“

“I was visiting from Canada and we stopped here to grab a quick bite for lunch! The food was incredible, I had the rib tips and they did not disappoint! Thank you 🙏“

“Best food and very clean! I highly recommend 👍👍👍“

“I'm waiting for my Togo order at Texas Roadhouse in Tinley Park, the restaurant was super busy and some people had minor complaints but the hostesses Angelique and Megan were very very nice and professional, they were super awesome. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone. Thank you ladies for making my Valentines day very pleasant.“

“Great food and great customer service“

“My sisters and I stopped in yesterday afternoon. Been coming here for quite some time. We were there in July and enjoyed a delicious Italian beef combo. It was served on great Italian bread and the au jus was plentiful and tasty. Second best beef I’ve ever had. Sad to say our stop yesterday was not so good. They changed the sandwich, now served on toasted hoagie bun with a little cup of au jus. Very dry. My sister had a meatball sandwich, also dry. We won’t be looking forward to stopping by anytime soon. Go back to the old recipes, please.“

“I really like the rice bowl with the chicken 🐔 skewers!!“

“She has the best soul-food that I have ever tasted in my entire life. Everything was cooked to perfection. Every bite was so savory, satisfying, appetizing, delectable, scrumptious, mouth-watering & internally fulfilling. I couldn't even share my food with anyone else. #WrightwoodElementary is the school that she catered food for.? ?❤️???? “

“Wilma's bbq is good and the sauce is exceptional. I got a small rib tip and ate from it for 2 days. They do not take cash and that's okay because a great deal of people use their debit card. The parking lot is a little tricky to get into but you can go around the back and take a shortcut through the front lots or enter from Lincoln Highway. If you ever have an opportunity to go to Wilma's, I don't think you will be disappointed“

“we were at a wedding that had an after party that was changed at the last minute to this bar. Our bar tender Odette, was amazing. She handeled the whole party of 50+ with such grace and ease. The service at this bar is exceptional. Thank you for making the night fantastic for our group!“

“Ate here tonight and the food was wonderful. We had jerk turkey tips, jerk salmon and shrimp, yam, greens, cabbage, Mac and cheese and fried rice. Everything was tasty, hot, freshly made and spicy. The ladies were super friendly, helpful and provided great service. We will definitely be back to try other items. Ask about the specials that aren’t in the regular menu. Yum!“

“Great food! Highly recommend“
