I'm here visiting from south Carolina. I was craving bbq so I ordered from here, despite the pictures online, I still ordered. The ribs were DRY!!!!!!!!!!, the mac and cheese you taste more noddles than cheese, and the potato salad was horrible, its made with hash brown potatoes instead of diced potatoes and it's so much mayo in it it shouldn't even be called potato salad. Wings were lacking flavor but tinder. THE RIBS WERE DRY, you're better off going to chilli's for ribs than here.

Ordered 3 meat combo, chicken wings, & rib tips. All meat is so dry and lacks taste and so with the sides.
Total waste of money.
It was a bit disappointing. I got the sample platter. Dry pulled pork, brisket was roast beefy, Ribs were lacking in flavor, not much smoke on anything. Sauage just wasnt very good. Everything was Luke warm if not bordering on cold. Worst mac&cheese , bland, zero salt. The beans were the best thing, could have used more monster in them though. They claim we don't sauce our meats, maybe they should, and even then, the sauce isn't anything to get excited over.

Was a great restaurant before these new owners… took away the 10% cash discount and made it to 3%. Is this a joke? So greedy and won’t recommended to others anymore!

Everything was just meh. Music was too loud. Chicken wings were dry, Turkey was dry. Sauces lacked flavor for a bbq joint. Save your money and go somewhere else.

My first time there. I got a 2 &3 meat dinner. The wings were robbery and the mac and cheese tast bad and one of them had a hair in it. My family wouldn't eat, money lost. By the way I order a coleslaw and a Mac and cheese, u gave me 2 mac and cheese. The ribs were the only thing that tasted ok, but were cold.The beans not so good. I will never eat there again.NEVER. It was a take out so I didn't get to see what I ordered until I got home. Bad discussion.I should have taken pictures like the other, but I told my son to put it in the trash. Look I wish I had saw these other reviews before I went there. So sorry I didn't. I used cash so the cashier took the price down 3%.

Good BBQ brisket and ribs. Pulled pork was a little dry. Great BBQ sauce. Good Mac&Cheese and BBQ Beans. Try the Mexican Street Corn Nachos with your choice of meats.

This BBQ place needs help. I went in and ordered the 2 meat combo and ordered double brisket because the menu stated "choice" and no where does it reference to choose 2 separate meats. I was told that I had to buy 1/2 lb of brisket if I wanted all brisket. The attitude was take or leave it. I wanted brisket because I live in Texas but working in Chicago for awhile and miss eating BBQ so I decided to order that and a side of potato salad. I also got a drink and a small banana pudding. Big mistake, this meal cost almost $36 when the plate was $13.95 plus the drink and dessert. I am not rating the meal off the bad experience but the taste. It was not good, the meat was dense and dry and the potato salad lacked any taste but Mayonnaise. The banana pudding was so instant I could only taste the vanilla that was a dry mixture. I am a Texan and this establishment references Texas and this would not be a place to frequent back in Texas because of the service and quality. If you don't know any better than this might be a place you go to. Beware. Attached my receipt and the menu highlighted the entree I was trying to get.
