I was able to smell the chicken a block away, so I had to try them…read more This place is a cute little hole in the wall. I ordered the 4 piece dark with mild sauce and a small rib tip. I also ordered a side of cole slaw and red beans and rice. The guy behind the counter said they don't have mild sauce for the chicken. Then he told me the sauces that they had, so I said no sauce. I guess he was also relating the sauces for the rib tips when I already said no sauce. They cook the chicken fresh and may take a little time. When I got home, I was ready to dig in but I found out the sauce discussion left my rib tips with no bbq sauce. I called them and a nice lady told me I would be taken care of the next time, I visit. Thank goodness, I had bbq sauce. But I tried the tips without sauce and they were seasoned well. I put on some Sweet Baby Rays on them and dang it was good. The tips were tender and a lot of meat. The chicken was so good that I wish I would have gotten more. It was seasoned and crunchy. The Cole slaw was okay and the red beans and rice was good, just which it had a little more pot liquor. I would definitely go back. Also the prices that they have online is really outdated.

This spot is such a classic! I have been coming here for many years and always love coming back…read more Just an FYI that it is cash only. They also have an ATM machine if you don't have cash. Generally this location is usually pretty busy almost every time I have been here. Not too loud, definitely a place where you chill and hang with your friends over some wonderful wings! The food comes out pretty fast though & it's a spot where you can order, eat, and leave in a reasonable time. The wings have gotten a little smaller over the years, but I still come back because it's just so good. My usual order are the spicy wings and waffle fries. Something about the waffle fries that make it so good. I always have to have it. The wings.....you can't stop after a few. It's also addicting and you have to eat another one. Writing this makes me want to go on another road trip to get wings and waffle fries now!

(Kari's Rating 8/10) CASH ONLY!…read more Was in the mood for wings and a friend suggested this tiny one hit wonder wing shop and wow did it live to its name. We came all the way from River north and it absolutely exceeded all expectations. It is a cash only so make sure you bring cash! The place let us place our order and then we ran across the street to grab cash. There's not much seating in the front, but they have a larger seating area in the back. They don't necessarily have servers coming around, but if you don't clean up your garbage, someone will pick it up, but please also pick up your own garbage like a normal person. This has to wing ratio was on par. The wings refresh and since they were made to order, they were perfectly coated. Price was relatively fair. Unfortunately, the seats were not very comfortable, but the place was pretty packed when we went. Since it's right on Northwestern's campus, there were a ton of students. We got an order of the mild and the spicy wings, but I think we preferred the spicy. Overall, I probably would come back if I was in the area, but I don't know if I'd make a special trip up there.

The Fire Chicken Bowl definitely has a bit of a kick; I'm not big on spicy food, but my mom enjoyed it. The Korean BBQ Chicken Bowl had sauce that soaked nicely into the rice and tasted great, though the chicken itself was a bit bland. I recommend getting an extra side of Garlic Parmesan Aioli to dip the chicken in. It made a big difference. Overall, the bowls were pretty filling, and we enjoyed them.

The food was amazing, especially the BRISKET which is hard to find in Chicago! The FRIES are very unique and seasoned, somewhat of a different texture, flavor and seasoning than regular French fries so I was very pleased. I also had the greens and Mac and cheese. The greens could use some smoked turkey or flavoring. You won't be disappointed! I also want to say that after my first visit, I came back two (2) days in a row! I am appreciative of the staff, CONSISTENT smoked/barbecue food selections, which is a rarity, and great prices, especially the Specials.

We checked out this place with a few people on the Saturday evening after Christmas and were still…read moreamazed how empty the place was. Did everyone truly leave town? It's located right down the street from Northwestern University's football stadium (whatever the heck they're naming it). This is a nice hidden gem in Evanston. Not located downtown, it may have a chance to stick around a while. As Jane V. noted in her review, you are greeted by a delicious smoky smell when you enter the restaurant. It was an inviting smell (at least for me), others in our group thought we were walking into a barbecue joint and were less than thrilled, but the menu put them at ease as it has a lot of options. There were five of us and one couple decided to share a couple appetizers as their entrees. They ordered the Cauliflower Buffalo Bites, and the Macho Nacho. They were huge portions easily enough for us all to share. However, my wife and I don't see eye-to-eye with our eating habits (she is mostly vegetarian and I'm a card-carrying carnivore), so she was not about to share the smoky wings and cheesy tots with me. I opted for the Chicken Vesuvio entree, and she and our other friend both ordered the Inside-Out Grilled Cheese. I would say most the sandwiches looked good (no portobello for me, thanks). I would say though, the desserts are pretty generic, so we opted out, but their is a door inside the restaurant to the donut shop next door (which was closed), but I wanted to try that place, so I'll have to make another trek out there for them and review them later. I'm amazed that the donut shop, DB3 Donuts, does not appear on their menu at all, despite having a connecting door from one establishment to the other, but alas, I've heard their apple crisp and brownie are good, but neither were too appealing that night. All meals were delicious and I definitely need to go back and try other dishes. And may DB3, if they are open. Give this place some love as it is a nice gem in Evanston.

Holy Moley, did we find great food in Evanston!…read more We celebrated Saint Patrick's Day at Ten Mile House restaurant in Evanston @tenmilehouse When we walked in the door, they had a delicious smoky smell that was driving me crazy. So much so that I ordered the smoked Sampler plate, and was I glad I did. I started off with their Top O' The Morning special Saint Patrick's cocktail (Titos, Curacao, and orange juice shaken and poured over ice). I really loved this drink. My hubby had a Margarita that was just delightful. Our appetizers were: Angry Shrimp (really delicious) shrimp with a spicy tomato garlic sauce. Served over polenta cake. Ahi Tuna Wanton (mango jicama salsa, avocado, and teriyaki sauce) This should be their signature appetizer).The presentation is impeccable. It appealed to our eyes before the 1st bite. And,the first bite, as well as the rest, was wonderful. We would gladly return here just for this. Our entrees were: Grilled Salmon with corn risotto, grilled asparagus, smoked tomato aioli. The salmon was well cooked to medium, not too dry, and not too rare. The plate was well balanced and everything was very tasty. Smoked Sampler My favorite! Rib tips, brisket, pulled pork, Texas toast, cole slaw. For dessert: Chocolate Brownie Apple Crisp Both were so good that we did not want to share! The next time you are in the Evanston area, you really must stop in for their delicious food!

It was supposed to be a 1/4 pound. It had to be near 1/2 point. Nidely charred and crisp. It was on a sesame bun and had lettuce pickles, onions and tomato and a nice sauce. It was amazing. The onion rings were good, but I thought didn't have the onion taste I was looking for. The fries were crisp and all in all it was way too much food. The service is quick and it seems to be a popular place. It seems almost like a Harolds with a stark front with plexiglass window to place your order and pick up food. It's a bit off-putting. I don't think it's in a bad neighborhood so it's a bit like overkill on the security. Particularly since it's in a strip mall.

We remembered Bat 17 from previous visits and had really liked it. Since then, it relocated down the street. New location is fine. A bit more sterile. We sat in the side room, hoping for sound. No sound on their tvs so that's a bummer when you actually care about the game. Maybe it was like that before, too? The food is still good. We split the Roadhouse Chicken sandwich and, as before, they let us each choose our own side. Appreciate that. Our server was very friendly when she came around, but there were times we were waiting to be checked on, etc. We also had a weird interaction with the bus boy. The other bummer is that they used to have tons of beers on tap. Now just 4. I'd say the food is still good but other factors made this a miss for me.
