   The St Louis Ribs were awesome! The shredded pork was also very good. The brisket was tough and dry. Good barbecue sauces.

   I had a really good experience dining here. It was my 3rd time eating there and my mom’s first time. We went for her birthday. She’s been wanting barbecue and I thought this would be a great place to go. It was slightly loud because there was an Irish fest I guess on the same street as the restaurant and there were a lot of people at the bar but we were in the main dining room, which was quieter. The brisket was great! The Mac and cheese….omg. One of the best restaurant Mac and cheese I’ve ever had. The brisket meatballs and grits are soooo good. These are the only grits I eat. I normally don’t eat them, I don’t even like them, but there are good.

   Thank you for celebrating your mom’s birthday with us! We’re so happy to hear that you both had a great experience and that the brisket, mac and cheese, and brisket meatballs with grits hit the spot. It means a lot that our grits won you over! We appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back for visit number four. The Chicago Q Team

   Although the food was absolutely phenomenal, the service was extremely slow impacting our night. We were there on a weeknight with minimal other tables and we couldn't understand why everything was taking so long. When the food did come it was the best BBQ we've eaten in the city but that did not make up for the lack of service. The front room also smelled of the nearby bathroom cleaners as soon as we walked in

   Dear Guest, Thank you for your honest feedback. While we’re thrilled you loved the BBQ, I’m sorry to hear the service was not up to par. That’s not the experience we want for our guests, and we’d love to learn more. Would you be so kind as to send an email to our team with the date/time of your visit as well as your name? We appreciate the chance to make things right. Best, Rob The Chicago Q Team

   After 2 disappointing visits I came back after a year...i loved the food this time, back to what I remembered and enjoyed about this place.. Chicken, brisket, ribs all cooked well. Good service and good value.

   Great food. Service was lacking, which is a change from several months ago. Music was not consistent and volume went from good volume for dinner conversation to extremely loud.

   We found ourselves unexpectedly dining at Chicago...and the experience was fantastic. Great BBQ and ambience but the best part was our server, Robert. Outstanding!

   This is such a hidden gem. The food was amazing (specially the hush puppies) with great price and serving size! Additionally the service staff were all so friendly, kind, and attentive! I would highly recommend this restaurant.
