My father and I visited Q-BBQ a couple of weeks ago for lunch. Even on a Tuesday around noon,…read moreparking in La Grange can be a challenge. I got lucky and found the last space in the small adjacent lot shared with the hardware store. Downtown La Grange is crazy-busy no matter when, and you can forget street parking. My father uses a walker, and the restaurant was very accessible for him, which I appreciated. We thought about sitting outside, but it's not all that appealing as you basically are out on the sidewalk looking over parked cars and traffic. After we found a table inside the rustic-appointed space, I got into the short ordering line and chose the Papa Q Platter because I wanted us to be able to try a little of everything. Neither of us eats very much anymore, and the platter was more than generous. We brought home well over half of it. The pulled chicken and brisket were okay, as was the mac and cheese. The smoked turkey, baked beans, and pulled pork were all on point. The burnt ends were great, but the ribs were easily the highlight. They appeared to be back ribs, but they were meaty, smoky, tender without being mushy, and had an excellent bark. The sauces were fine, although I would have liked a sharper Eastern Carolina-style vinegar sauce, or something really hot and spicy. Overall, there were a few average items, but the better meat--especially those ribs--made it a very enjoyable lunch.

Well Yelpers the Mrs & I tried this place out after a little shopping close to the area. They have…read morea small parking lot for patrons which was a plus. You could smell the smoke outside another plus. Decent size on the inside with some outside seating as well. You can see them preparing your food from the kitchen. The service was very good. Abby took our order and she was very patient and helpful. They have complimentary pickles to go with your order if you like. We ordered beef brisket sliders, sliced turkey sliders, 1/2 lb. Of brisket burnt ends and 1/2 lb their signature brussel sprouts. All that cost roughly $53.50 without tip. First the brisket burnt ends. They were tender and Smokey I just wished they had some type of bark on them. All in all they were tasty. I'll give them a 6.8/10. The brisket sliders were also tender & a nice smoke flavor to them but they didn't have any bark on them as well. The buns were soft and buttery which helped. 7/10. They came without sauce which I liked they have 3 sauces on the table for you to choose from. Sweet, spicy and a vinegar based sauce. The sweet sauce and the sauce were average 5/10 the vinegar based I didn't care for at all 0/10 for me. The turkey sliders were decent. Very nice smoke on them and very tender. And they weren't dried out. The same soft buttery buns 6.5/10 Now those signature Brussel Sprouts was hitting hard! They had a nice char on them very flavorful and just a faint hint of sweetness. They were star of the meal! 8.8/10! We got fries with the sliders...... 7.8/10! Q BBQ was decent nothing special but they were good. I'm willing to give them another chance. Remember Yelpers ALL reviews are SUBJECTIVE!!

I 100% recommend trying one! You could taste the freshness in every bite, with gooey melted cheese and a perfectly cooked patty. Overall, a great spot for drinks, good food, and a fun atmosphere. I'd definitely come back.

They don't toss, but give you the sauce on the side, which I was fine with. I asked for blue cheese crumbles, and they put a nice amount. The side salad is huge, and really good for just being a side salad. My only recommendation is that they overload it into a small bowl, so it's hard to eat without it falling out . I recommend a larger bowl. The server was friendly. I gave it 3 stars because it's absolutely filthy! I came right when they opened on a weekday, and the floors weren't cleaned from the night before. Literally food in the corners. Also, the table next to me filled with crumbs. When a group sat there, they wiped all the crumbs with their hand-eek! The table is so grimy that it's literally sticky! If you look at the trim, gate, condiments container,lights, and furniture- you can see loads of dust and grime. This place needs a GOOD clean down!

First bite... that was it. The crust had that perfect crunch on the outside but still soft inside. You could taste that wood-fired char, just enough to give it that smoky edge. The cheese was melted just right, stretchy and hot. The sauce had a nice balance, a little tangy, a little sweet, not overpowering anything. The pepperoni was the best part. Crispy on the edges, a little oily in a good way, and full of flavor. Every bite just worked. Thin, balanced, nothing too heavy. If you like pizza, this is one of those spots you gotta try. I'd go back for that one easy.

Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and we enjoyed what we ordered. The Buzzkill pizza was delicious, and the appetizer platter was a great option for the table. Unfortunately, the service really took away from the experience. It took about 10 minutes before anyone came over to seat us, another 10-15 minutes before someone took our order, and when our Snap Into It salad arrived (for a party of three), it only came with two pieces of bread, so we had to ask for a third. At the end of the meal, we waited around 20 minutes just to get our check. The surprising part was that the restaurant wasn't busy at all, so the slow service was hard to understand. The food was definitely the highlight, but because of the overall service experience, I don't think I'd return.

Mac n cheese was (I think) the best I've had from a restaurant in a while. I love the type of fries that they pair with the burgers, they were fresh & not too salty. Our burgers were also very good. Apparently they have a new burger/dessert of the week each week so those items do change. They looked like they'd have good drinks too, I'd definitely come back to try. It can be a bummer that it's not a place where you can eat, drink, then hangout a bit so don't expect to be allowed to sit for too long. Service was also very nice

We sat outside and the menu looks like it has a lot of options. We ordered a couple drinks - a beer that wasn't anything special and a martini that had shimmer in it. I took a sip and instantly regretted it - tasted like a mixed drink I made at a highschool basement party. The alcohol burned my throat and it was like the cocktail components didn't make sense. I took one sip and never sipped it again. We ordered cheese curds and a burger which came out in 5 minutes after we ordered which was odd. Felt more like a fast food joint. The cheese curds were heavy and greasy and the burger was pretty good. 1 appetizer, a burger, 2 drinks cost us $67, kind of wild in my opinion. Our server seemed like she wanted us gone too as it was the end of the night. Disappointing experience, don't plan on returning.

The food was phenomenal. The restaurant has a cozy, laid-back feel, and the smell of the wood-fired oven hit me as soon as I walked in. Everything moved surprisingly fast too. Our pizza was at the table in less than 10 minutes, and the staff couldn't have been nicer. They even gave me a recommendation, which ended up being the perfect choice. I ordered The Bricks, a Bari-style ultra-thin pizza with tomato sauce, mild Italian sausage, mushrooms, shaved red onion, the house cheese blend, and a touch of Asiago. The first bite completely won me over. It was one of those pizzas where nothing is trying to steal the spotlight, but together everything just clicks. The crust was thin, crispy, and had that slightly smoky flavor from the brick oven that you can only get from a real wood-fired pizza. The tomato sauce was fresh and slightly sweet, the sausage added a savory, well-seasoned bite and the mushrooms brought a deep earthy flavor that worked perfectly with the sweetness of the onions. Every bite had that perfect balance of crispy crust, gooey cheese, fresh sauce, and smoky toppings. I'll definitely be coming back. This has easily become one of the best wood-fired brick oven pizzas I've had.
