“I’m a cook, kudos to All out smoke Pit. The best rib tips , turkey tips and the balance of the food. 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!“

“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!“

“excellent food and service“

“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!“

“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!!!“

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!?“

“Let...me...tell...you......🙌🙌🙌 I've been here a few times....and the last time they ran out of these...because they're SOOOO good! Tonight my mom in law and I split a slab! 🔥🔥 I'm a "tester" of ribs...and believe me when I say....I will ALWAYS be going for these EVERY time! NO sauce needed!! (And besides....I'll be supporting my son while he works there 😍). We met the owner, he asked how we enjoyed our time. Of course we mentioned Austin is ours, he had nothing but great things to say about him! He said we have a good one! JC is an amazzzzzing server!! 💖 If you haven’t been there....go! You will not be disappointed! 😘“

“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.“

“Felt like I am immersed in the culture and local community when I go into this place. I look to stop in when coming back and forth from co to mi. Verrry tasty quality stuff.
Curious to know about the name if there is a story behind it?“

“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.“

“First off, I ordered because Kevin sent me lol. I got the cheeseburger and a pupusa. The flavor was really good!

The only small thing I noticed was the cheeseburger was a little soggy, which might be because the toppings were on the bottom of the bun. Also, $10 for one pupusa felt a little steep. Maybe a couple medium-sized ones could make it feel like a better value.

But overall the taste was great! Just wanted to share some friendly feedback. Keep up the good work!“

“I reakky love getting my chicken and fish from here!“

“Food and drink- awesome - awesome!“

“We were hesitant about trying this restaurant after moving into the neighborhood. Reading the reviews helped. 😲 when I say this food was 🔥, we devoured the large turkey tips w/hot links. Everything was hot and fresh! Fries were still crispy with the sauce on them! Turkey was melt in ur mouth delicious 😋. No leftovers, we ate it all in one sitting. Woo woods is our new bbq joint! Will definitely be back. Today. Hopefully.“

“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! 😀“

“I ordered a Half Slab of Baby Back Ribs, 1/2 lb of Beef Brisket (burnt ends), and a small side of Mac and Cheese. The portions of meat were generous and well-seasoned, generously coated in BBQ sauce, making them quite delicious. However, the Mac and Cheese did not meet expectations and needs improvement. I was taken aback by the restaurant's size; it was quite small. As someone in a wheelchair, I had difficulty making a 360-degree turn due to the narrow waiting area. Despite this, the atmosphere was pleasant, filled with the enticing aroma of BBQ, and the chef was friendly and laid-back. Overall, I recommend Medley's BBQ and plan to return to try their Turkey Tips and Fried Chicken Skins.“

“Lunch Special Rib Tips 10/10 Recommend“

“We typically love it here. However, we had an easily avoidable issue yesterday. The app only allows the "call ahead" for up to 6. We had a party of 12. So, we called the location to ask if they could accommodate a party of 12. We kept getting placed on hold by 3 different employees only to be told they can't give a time estimate until we are physically there (15+minutes btw of employee after employee). Okay, we pack up and head there. After arriving we are told they can't even sit the 12 of us together and it's a 1.5 hour wait. What a WASTE of OUR time. I understand the wait is based on the customer traffic. But if you guys know you can't sit 12 together, TELL US OVER THE DAM PHONE!!!!!!“

“We dined here today mainly due to having a gift card. My husband opted for the 9oz filet with mashed potatoes and macaroni & cheese, accompanied by Sprite. I chose a peach sangria and the 7 pepper sirloin salad and loaded baked potato soup combo. The restaurant's cozy atmosphere was a welcome respite during our Christmas shopping in the snow. We appreciated our friendly server, quick service, and the good food, which exceeded our expectations and made us want to come back. See you next time Longhorns!“

“Quick and easy service! Delicious food!“

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

“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 🙏“

“Great food and great customer service“

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

“The first time I went in I ordered the three piece catfish dinner. It came with fries, coleslaw and corn on the cob. What I was surprised with was the packaging. It was placed in an aluminum tray and packaged so well that I was highly impressed. My food was prepared by the male chef. It was delicious. I was so impressed that I told my neighbors. The next time I ordered a lady answered the phone and took my order of the same first order. Her customer service skills were poor and the same order that I ordered before was a disappointment. The fish was not crisp and packaging was a plastic bag. The real cook who was chef that cooked my order should train the staff in their cooking skills. I haven’t been back. If a standard is set customers will be faithful and tell others about the food served and the quality of customer service.“

“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.? ?❤️???? “
