50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Oak Lawn

“My husband and I were very impressed with the food. It's made fresh and is delicious. The fries tasted great and were not greasy. My husband had a huge delicious hamburger that he couldn't finish in one sitting. I had the steak shawarma which I enjoyed very much. We sat outside because the weather was perfect for it. The people working there were friendly and polite. We were definitely impressed.“

“Really good BBQ and the food was great, but honestly the woman at the register made the experience even better. She was super nice and took the time to walk us through the menu and explain everything. She mentioned how everything is made from scratch, which I really liked. You can tell they take pride in their food. Definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“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!“

“This is my favorite place to eat , great prices , they have items on the menu that u can’t get anywhere else like the pork tenderloin dinner , it’s huge, double pork chop dinner around 20 bucks take you all day to eat it . Cowboy ribeye on the weekends is great ! I think I’ve been there like 25 times , staff is nice , owners are good people , they treat me like a regular“

“We had a party of 13. Not great for large party's of 6 or more. They will not put tables together. They sat us a 3 tables near each other. But the Outlaw Ribeye steak is one of the best cooked medium rare. The Wild West shrimp were a great way to start our meal. My only change for the food would be to season the salmon with a garlic aioli or cajun seasoning.

Enjoyed our time with them!“

“First time coming out to try this type of experience. Everything was great and our server (Ryan) did a great job explaining things to us. He even gave some great recommendations on what to order. I’m a carnivore by nature so this was my kind of place. I forget what the rice dish with the egg was called but I enjoyed the crispy texture at the edge of the sizzling bowl. I went into a mini-meat trance after all was said and done but it was worth it.“

“Amazing food. Great atmosphere. What more can be said?“

“Life changing dumplings!!“

“amazing staff and food,good prices and a great atmosphere“

“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!“

“I found an excellent Dining spot. We loved the smokedJerk turkey Tip. The flavor is excellent and now I found Jerk turkey and it’s better than the chicken. I love green tomatoes the best I found since my on. The smoked Brisket Burgers you won’t stop eating them. They are in rivers oaks right now but they are moving downtown Chicago. If you love smoked flavor you have definitely got to check out Bell Heir’s Barbecue😍“

“Bbq + tacos, yes please. BBQ Chicken Taco with pico de gallo, cilantro, Pulled Pork Taco caribbean salsa, pico de gallo & spicy lime aioli and Brisket Burnt Ends Taco with chimichurri, slaw and cilantro. At $3.50 to $4.00 a taco, they were small. But they were tasty. #spicemeister approved.“

“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!?“

“This is hands down the best food I’ve had in years ! The corn bread muffins are served in CORN HUSKS…the pulled chicken sandwich came with an actual chicken leg and wing on the side! Then throw in the free music playing, it is absolutely a favorite for me from now on!“

“I was here this weekend and my experience is great. I enjoyed the food especially the beef tongue and also their drink bar was great. The sever is nice and helpful especially Vincent. Also I think they have promotions right now and it’s was 5% discount applied to qualify person. I picked the 39.99 premium dinner got 2 dollars from the promotion. They located on second floors but it’s not hard to get up there and who wouldn’t want a little exercise before they eating a AYCE buffet? Overall this play is excellent for any group around 2-4.“

“We had an awsome time at the restaurant! Our server Akasha was wonderful! She made sure our order was correct and that it arrives to our table in a timely manner! She also kept on top of our drinks and brought an ice cream Sunday for dessert! Very polite and courteous! One of the best servers you all have!“

“Rib Tips are 🔥. Owners were pretty cool. I’ll definitely go back. 10/10“

“Place is 🔥! They have great customer service, and I would highly recommend this place to anybody. Especially if you’re looking for some good BBQ!!!“

“June 7, 2026 nice venue, food presentation was good, but food was terrible. 70 percent of the guests food barely had taken a bite , steak was still alive, chicken was dry. for the amount of money that was spent for such a large crowd, management and chef should be ashamed of themselves“

“amazing staff and food,good prices and a great atmosphere“

“Quick and easy service! Delicious food!“

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

“Great BBQ, unbeatable price and nice people there.“

“Longhorn is my favorite restaurant! The food is always fresh and delicious. My favorite is the Outlaw Ribeye Steak! Because the food is so delicious and the service is so great, there is often a wait for a table, but it's always worth the wait!“

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

“I absolutely enjoy everything they have ever cooked for me. I especially love the Lamb Chops. Umm Umm Good“

“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.“

“Kids meal offers excellent value. Lots of kids activities by waiting area and TVs to look at. Our server had been there over 6 years, they must be treating staff alright. Food was excellent, it was honestly a really nice time. Really only affordable place could find for steak as my oldest had never had it out - steak pieces in a $7.99 kids meal. Bread, peanuts, refillable kids drinks, I was happy. Across from a great shopping center. Busy and good crowd!“

“this place has the best barbecue ribs Y los cajeros son muy amables visiten. Este lugar no se van a arrepentir“

“Definitely a must try ...well a add to rotation of places to frequent. Went on a Friday night and the owner came out to tell us about a few items/ samples. Not only was the turkey tips tender and flavorful, the sides were definitely a costar. Greens and Mac were 10/10. Oh and let's not forget about the cornbread, chef's kiss. Next trip I make that way , the pizza selection will be a next try and I'm pretty sure I won't be disappointed.“

“it's all good to me, havnt had anything bad yet“
