They sat us at a table that smelled of sour milk we moved. The table we moved to no one noticed us for about 20 min and then the waitress came up and she was the only saving grace for the restaurant. She was very nice and got everything right and out in a good time. When we were eating there were fruit fly’s all around our drinks. I will say I will not go back. The food was good in spots and burning hot in other spots. Just not a good experience. The place wasn’t even busy. I hope they promote the waitress to manager cause the manager was horrible.

Kinda sad. We really liked Kinfork in the past, but it’s been over a year since we have been there. On a Weds night they were nearly deserted, and yet seemed understaffed. There was no one at the front desk. Service was really slow. Our meal, which took an extra long time to make it to the table, was lukewarm, like it had been sitting in the kitchen for a bit. We did let the waiter know how we felt, and he eventually came back to us with a $10 coupon towards another visit. But we thought it was strange not to have a manger visit the table. We hope it was just a off night, but it felt like a place treading water.

They only had two types of wine in stock out of 10-12 listed on the menu on a Friday night. Server seemed to be the only one there at 5:30pm so service was very slow. Food was decent. Probably won’t be back.

Had a great meal at Kinfork! We started our meal with the hush puppies. The jalapeño lime sauce was great, it gave the hush puppies a tangy savory taste. My sister had the BBQ brisket nachos which she enjoyed. For my main meal I had the party melt, which was amazing, I highly recommend it. The flavors of the cheese blended great with the juicy burger, making a rich taste in every bite. For my side I had the honey butter cornbread, which went well with my burger. If your in the area and need a bite to eat, I highly recommend dining here.

Food was amazing. Our waiter was horrible! No silverware, no napkins, had to repeat things multiple times. Other staff seemed nice though

Stopped here for dinner for the first time. I had the Knife and Fork burger- fantastic! Definitely, something I'd go back for. My friend had the pulled pork and rib platter and loved it. I've been to their sister location, RackHouse in Arlington Heights several times, this menu is a bit different but still focused on BBQ.

We tried this restaurant for the first time and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is cool, the food was good, and I loved the moonshine cocktail I got. Only negative thing was that no one was up front when we walked in (on a Saturday night!) so we had to stand around for awhile until someone showed up.

Cole slaw was spicy and cannot be subbed out. There were only about 4 other people dining at the same time as us and it took a very long time to get our food. The sauce on the pulled pork was very bland, no flavor whatsoever. I will not be back.
