This was the first time I visited this place and all I can say is... what do you expect from a BBQ Joint. My order probably would've looked & came out much better,...if I had order my sauce on the side. It's my fault.
I did order a small order of rib tips too, but I forgot to take a picture of them to review them. It did come out looking like this photo too, because I forgot to order the sauce on the side, but overall,... it was a little ok and more better than the link.
The sausage tasted like it had a little Mexican chorizo in it with that brats maple syrup flavor and brown sugar in it. It was ok, but not the best. It was' a kinda dry inside the link.
*This is my 1rst time trying or experiencing food like this, at any BBQ joint. *But To finish this review off, I would say it's not the best experience I had, but it's worth giving it a try for yourself, but remember to order the sauce on the side. Don't do the mistake I did. Oh' & have a good day.

If I could leave a negative 5 star review I would. I ordered a number 4, which is 1 dried out link, 4 tiny dried out wings-and I mean tiny, and a half order of fries. I ate the whole plate and I didn't even feel like I ate. And they charged me 16 dollars. After paying that price I should be full and satisfied. I would recommend that you go elsewhere. The food tastes fried and below average.

I’ve been going to this place for over 15 years. Today will be the last time I ever go there. They really messed up my order. I wanted a bucket of rib tips and I told them to put the sauce on the side. They ended up drinking the whole bucket and sauce and on top charged me for a side of sauce which I was aware of. They also charge me for hot links which I never received. I called them and they hung up on me and every time I tried calling back they wouldn’t answer. The food might be good but disappointed in the service and they last a long time customer .

I grew up in the area, orderred this often and I must say this food is a huge disappointment. Everything from the sauce to the links and even the rib tips are not the same. Im not sure if its under new management but the food lacks "soul", for lack of a better word. Wont be orderring from here anymore. I had the links and rib tip combo. Super greasy and very dry. My girlfriend orderred the chicken tenders and she stated " bland with no flavor".

Never opened during their posted hours, they close whenever they want, food overpriced. They fell off used to be good. Everything over cooked or dried out. Price should match quality every time.

Not Luke it use to be. Lacked flavor. Some was just tough meat. Mexicans are running it now. I don't know if the black owners sold it but the food isn't the same as in nit as good. Not going back and I wouldn't recommend them

Besides all the big franchises I do consider this place on of the best in the south side of Chicago. Chicken is fried to perfection. BBQ ribs are okay. I've been a customer for years and always recommend it to friends.
