This was a cool place to eat in West Loop. You order your food then wait for the pager to go off. After that you just go to one of those communal tables to eat. It was a solid place to eat bbq, not the best one I’ve been to in Illinois but very solid. Customer service was good, no complaints. We ordered pork ribs, sliced brisket, potato salad, banana pudding, sausage, pork belly, and brisket salad. They did have brisket salad on the menu before.
-pork ribs 5/5 - moist and fell off the bone
-sliced brisket 3.5 - could be a little more moist and less salty.
-potato salad 5/5 - very flavorful. I loved all of the components going into it.
-banana pudding 5/5 - delicious. Made you feel like it was homemade.
-pork belly 5/5 - not tough. Easy to cut and good flavor
-sausage 5/5 - savory and good
-brisket salad ⅘ - it was decent.
If you’re a bbq fan, you have to make this spot a priority! The decor and vibe inside was really unique and fun. It feels like a BBQ joint meets a European town. We really enjoyed the brisket, smoked turkey, and LOVED the pulled pork sandwich. I would skip the pickled veggies and the baked beans. They just weren’t my favorite. But highly recommend this fun spot! It seems especially fun for the holidays. The decor was top notch!
I love this smokehouse and would revisit again next time I am in Chicago!
The ambiance is truly remarkable. Naturally, there's often a substantial wait, but you can occupy yourself by enjoying beverages from the bar, including an extensive array of draft beers. 🍻
The smoked brisket is absolutely sensational, boasting an incredibly tender and succulent texture. I'd also suggest trying the well-seasoned pork ribs – they're fantastic!
