Hawthorne's Backyard offers an excellent dining experience with exceptional food and service. The restaurant caters primarily to Cubs fans, with the game playing on every TV, though it would be ideal to have more options for other sports. While the menu features predominantly meat-based dishes, the establishment is wheelchair accessible. Despite the higher prices, the quality of the BBQ is second to none in the state, making it a worthwhile destination for a memorable meal with family and friends. Visitors often find the place cozy and inviting, with a relaxed atmosphere that feels hidden but welcoming. The food consistently impresses, with many customers praising the ribs, fish tacos, and homemade carrot cake, which is considered the best they’ve ever had. The beef brisket is noted for being tender, and the baked beans and macaroni and cheese are described as superb and amazing. Attentive staff quickly address any issues, offering food vouchers and ensuring a positive experience. Overall, Hawthorne's Backyard is highly recommended for those seeking delicious southern comfort BBQ in a cozy setting.
