    Had a great time at Branding Iron for the Bears game vs the Steelers on 11/23. Food and atmosphere was awesome. The service was great despite being a packed house. Another thing is a family friendly restaurant were I took my 12 yr old son to watch the game. Prices are good, they were giving free shots of Mezcal and raffling an Authentic Autograph Odunze jersey. The whole vibe has changed since it's under new ownership. Definitely making this place my weekly Bears game bar and more. A must try for sure!!!!!

    Basil Chicken Sandwich

    Nice sports bar located right by Seat Geek Stadium. I went here for my fantasy football draft not long ago. We went early on a Friday evening, so it wasn't too crowded, got served pretty quickly. We just did buckets of beers, and I got a chicken sandwich which was pretty good. They had a lot of TVs at all angles, so it'd be ideal for watching any sports match. They have a decent size parking lot, and is just a few miles south on Harlem off I-55. There's not a whole lot of options in that area, so this may be one of your better options for going out. My friend works nearby there so that's how I discovered it. Wouldn't be opposed to coming back at some point in the future.

    False advertisement- place in the back is apparently its own entity while they are promoting Branding Iron. $3 tacos and only have chicken. Ordered 6 tacos and my goodness did they SKIMP on the meat. All the tacos came out cold, barely any chicken in them, FULL of onion chunks and a sprinkle of cilantro. Absolutely HORRIBLE! Advertising drinks at a certain price for today and not honoring it and charging more than it should be. Will never come here after this experience and all the false advertising they have been posting. RED FLAG ESTABLISHMENT!!!

    Branding Iron Mule And Beyond Burger
    Steve A.

    Branding Iron isone of the best restaurants in Bridgeview. It's a pretty easy feat. Most of the places around here are garbage, and this place can actually be pleasant. Come in to watch a game and chill. The prices are the worst thing about it, with these being pretty ridiculous on a few things. Came in with the girl to watch a game. It also happens to have drinks and food, making it a good experience overall. The only complaint was the prices. Cocktail prices aren't that bad. We got a few of these. I had the Branding Iron Mule. It's about $8 for the cheapest cocktails, so pretty average for this. This one has ginger beer, lime, and vodka. It was easy to knock back. The menu is mostly meaty. Good thing about it is they have a few vegetarian items. The bad thing is the price. Each of us got a Beyond Burger. It's about $13 and comes with a side. The prices were crappy but the food sure wasn't. It was a big ass burger. This almost was worth the high price. Good filling meal and the service wasn't bad either. It's certainly a place I could come to again if ever around here. The prices are the only complaint but if you're looking for a fun sports bar this is one, whether getting vegetarian food or something such as wings.

    Ribs, coleslaw and baked beans
    Arika C.

    Terrible food and loud music. Their menu says they are known for their ribs and there is no reason why. I don't think they seasoned the meat at all unless drenched in bad vinegar based bbq sauce is a "seasoning". I needed the big steak knife to cut through half the meat. They said the slaw is mayo based but what they meant is all mayo with no other flavor. Who can mess up beans? Well, they dumped a pound of sugar in them. Terrrrrible experience. Plus they give you steak knives and real spoons, but plastic forks. The waiter was nice, but doesn't know the menu. He told us we had to order sides, even though I pointed out the menu said that my husbands dish came with mashed potato and slaw. They brought out the dish with the sides (as the menu stated) and then extra sides. Of course we weee charged for them and when I said something, the waiter said that he told us the sides were extra. Never going back. Super disappointed.

    Is this the same family that owned the famous 95th st Branding Iron with the first open kitchen I remember? Flames were everywhere on the grill. Steak and ribs were the deal.…

    Would be a great place to go post concert/game as it is right outside Seatgeek Stadium.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a gentleman behind the counter. He was friendly and very helpful as I was obviously there for the first time. The place has got an Old West theme; probably left over from the 70s or 80s, but that's why I love it more. Plenty of seating inside but I opted to sit outside on the picnic tables out front. I had the brisket sandwich with coleslaw, beans, and a side of fries. There was a fair amount of brisket on the sandwich itself. So much so I was surprised it was very tasty and pretty moist. Could have been a wee bit moister. I wasn't as crazy about the beans but I think that's a matter of taste. Something in the seasoning. That being said, the fries were amazing! I'm not usually really concerned about french fries but every single one of these were crispy and had the perfect amount of salt. I also very much liked the creamy coleslaw. I look forward to coming back and trying the ribs and maybe some Greek specialties.

I've had their BBQ ribs and other items in the past, but decided to try their Beef Brisket Sandwich. The sandwich had a fair amount of brisket, and I especially liked how they lightly toasted the roll, similar to an Italian beef roll, nice and chewy. It's counter service, and when your order is ready, they announce your number on your receipt. Gemato's is a good place for families or large parties with plenty of seating.

We walked back out and found the door to the restaurant. Staff is warm and friendly and we were seated quickly. Our server was Robert and he was great! He gave his recommendations for which sides would go best with our meals and I felt they were spot on. They give complimentary bread and butter. It was warm and delicious. Hubby ordered the rib tips with fries, baked beans, and had the hot and mild barbecue sauce on the side. I ordered the 1/2 dark smoked chicken dinner with mac-n-cheese, spicy Cajun green beans, and spicy honey garlic barbecue sauce. I agree with Robert, that the sauce pairs very well with the chicken. The tips were tender and falling off the bone. He didn't care for the fries and loved the baked beans, even though they were a bit too spicy for him. My chicken was also very tender and I enjoyed the smokiness. The green beans had the right amount of spice although they were not as spicy as the baked beans. The mac-n-cheese was creamy. We were too full to order dessert. Maybe next time. This is a great neighborhood staple and will definitely be back.

The lighting and décor felt festive without being overwhelming, and the space itself is huge. There's plenty of room whether you're dining with family, catching a game with friends, or just unwinding with drinks after a long day. Speaking of drinks, they're very reasonably priced--definitely worth opening a tab and relaxing for a while. For food, I tried Chuck's Wings with roasted vegetables and Cajun fries. Nothing is ever truly perfect, but these wings came close. The sauce was spot-on--easily some of the best I've had. The vegetables were cooked just right and packed with flavor, and the Cajun fries tied everything together perfectly. Overall, this spot delivers on both atmosphere and quality. Definitely worth checking out.
