We had one of the sample platters for 2 and it came with brisket, pulled pork, ribs and chicken along with 2 sides (we picked the hush puppies and banana pudding). Everything but the chicken was full of flavor! The bbq sauces were amazing so it was easy to make the chicken enjoyable. We will definitely be coming back!

I only went because my husband live barbeque. So, I had bought him a gift card and we went and he had ribs, baked beans, peach cobbler, and cold slaw. I had French fries and some of his Cole slaw and peach cobbler - I'm a veggie with 2 or 3 kinds of fish in my diet. They did not have fish, so I had the sides mentioned above. We also shared a grape nehi [remember nehi sodas?], which was as delicious as I remember it back in the day. He enjoyed his food and I enjoyed my fries and peach cobbler and the nehi grape soda. The Orland Park location is nice as well. Today, Tuesday, they have buy by the bone at $1.79 per bone and my husband bought about 4 bones. We will be back on another Tuesday and combine movie discount Tuesday at Marcus Theater with the buy by the bone Tuesday here.

Won't go back. Went there today (1/23/23) around noon. Besides the fact that my fries looked (and tasted) like they had been sitting in the fryer all day long (black, oily, burnt, crunchy, and inedible), my pulled chicken sandwich was served to me w no sauce. I understand that you're supposed to put your own sauce on, but boiled and shredded chicken is definitely not appealing to look at and they should at least toss it in some sort of sauce for presentation. "Garlic bread" was bread w melted butter on it. Not a hint of garlic flavor or any flavor. $15 for a less than appealing looking shredded chicken sandwich, a side of burnt fries, and a small drink. Their Mt. Dew soft drink and free refills was the highlight.

The brisket tasted as if it was left over from a day before. Honestly the only thing I enjoyed were the hush puppies. Eh!

I went to City Barbeque for dinner tonight. The time was about a quarter to eight. I ordered pick 2 meats which were pulled chicken and smoked turkey. My sides were salad and green beans. They were out of smoked turkey. They ran out of pulled chicken. They didn't have chicken on the bone. They were out of ALL ribs. I usually have pics with my reviews, but they don't have anything. Your name is City Barbecue, right? Well, lemme tell ya, they have no bbq in the city of Orland Park!!!

I stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon for takeout. I ordered the beef brisket sandwich, four ribs (they have a special on Tuesdays for individual ribs) and fries. The brisket was good and moist, and they put a good amount in the bun, the ribs were really good -- dry rubbed and you add your own sauce (sweet, in my case), the fries were unsalted and soggy. I'd get carryout from here again. Solid four stars.

Recently returned to City Barbeque in Orland Park. Impressed with the updated presentation of the slab of ribs, full or half. The ribs are sliced and served on a platter which makes it easier for sharing. Excellent idea. The ribs are cooked to perfection. Eating them makes the experience more enjoyable...less messy due to the perfectly sliced slab. Can't wait to return so that I may indulge in their assortment of sandwiches and sides.

I absolutely love their food. Smoked bbq has the best taste and only type of bbq food I will eat. They have really tasty desserts too. Great staff and managers. I was missing part of my order one time and they were so great dealing with the situation. That's a rarity in its own.

Tried to order take out on a saturday at 5:30, they don't have any ribs, really, at 5:30 on a Saturday, do better please
I was in the Orland Park location and saw an employee blowing something off a burger she was packaging. It wasn't mine but I took my food left and threw it away.

Awesome BBQ Joynt! Pulled pork & brisket are Amazing! Fresh cut fries rounded out the meal. Leanest pulled pork I've ever had ?

I am a vegan, I never place a one star for anyone, however, a friend whose like a mom fell at this establishment and is now in rehab/skilled nursing facility attempting to work her way back to walking again but she still likes the food from this place. I ordered lunch for her though I don't eat meat her due to her age and respect I picked up the lunch for her. When I came to pick up instead of greeting me like a paying customer I was treated as a delivery driver. Please know there is nothing wrong with delivery driver but when they are worthy of receiving good customer service as well. I will of course never pick up anything for anyone here ever again! Disgusting

I went here on a whim to meet my dad for lunch. The service was fast and the food was good. There was an issue with one of the bottles sodas I got and they replaced it without hesitation and with a smile. I definitely will be back

Someone mentioned this restaurant to me so I decided to try it. I ordered a half slab of ribs, collard greens, Mac & cheese, and cornbread. The ribs were really very good. I did not enjoy the collard greens at all. Very bland. The Mac & cheese was ok and if you like sweet cornbread ,which I do, then you should too. I recommend this restaurant and I'm looking forward to going back to try some of their other items.
