    Stopped in there for lunch around 3pm on a Friday , place was almost empty , between lunch and…read moredinner I guess ? I got the brisket plate with two sides, I got the Cole slaw and the Mac and cheese . It was close to $23 . They also have chicken , pulled pork and smoke sausage plates . For $15 to $18 with 2 sides. The brisket was amazing , 5 good size slices . Very tasty, the Cole slaw was good , above average , and a good amount . And the Mac and cheese was very good , and no "up charge" one of the last places I went there was a $3 up charge . So I passed . Everything was great , great service , food came out in 10 minutes . I'll be back again .

    Good food, Classic Americana Bar-style vibe with friendly fast service, even with large parties…read morelike us. For a "BBQ" place, Theodore's covers all of the usual bases - pulled pork, beef brisket, Baby Back Ribs, Short Ribs, St Louiis style ribs, chicken and sausage too. For those in the mood for something else, they also offer a couple of salads, and a tasty sounding Blackened Chicken Penne, burgers and incongruously, a smoked meatloaf dinner too! I'm a fan of meatloaf, but for this evening, I chose to stick with their staples and thus, the Baby Back Ribs plus my sides of chili and mac n cheese arrived soon upon our table. The Ribs were quite nearly fall-off-the-bone, moist and flavorful - I enjoyed slathering the ribs in the default BBQ sauces in squeeze bottles on our long dining table. PRO TIP: My compatriots who ordered the beef brisket found it dry and not to their liking. Maybe it was just that night.. who knows.. Either way, I wouldn't mind coming back.. Nothing too outstanding, but the ribs were certainly on point for me!

This place was amazing and I'll tell you why... Atmosphere/Appearance: This place is inside the MGM Grand Casino in Springfield so you know it'll be classy. It was chill, relaxed and really easy going. I loved how we could just sit at the bar, play some video poker, sip and have great conversation with others around you. Service: Excellent. We were first greeted by an awesome young lady. I forget her name, but I'll never forget her tattoo. It was Disneyland, but like, zombie versions. Lol. It was the coolest thing and I believe she called it "Death Disney". Wild, but cool. I do however remember Bryan, Cassie and Aiden! Aiden looks like Bruno Mars, Cassie was really sweet and Bryan... well, Bryan was just damn awesome. He chatted with us, told us his story and how he preferred to make drinks... craft style instead of your normal cookie-cutter style cocktails. So some of the drinks I had weren't even on the menu, but came out of his head. Make sure you go see him. For real. Food: Well, they don't serve food here, so we drank! I started off with some wine... you know, some Pinot Noir, 2 glasses to be precise. Then as I loosened up I started getting adventurous. Hennessy is always delicious, but he fun part is when we got Bryan excited! He likes to create and make drinks so I told him to use his imagination and make me a drink with 219 parts. I was obviously joking, but he answered the call! He came through with a Sidecar at first. A Sidecar is basically cognac, orange liqueur and lemon juice. He stuck with the dark liquor theme since I was already drinking dark. He added his own twist and it was delicious, served with this hilariously big ice cube in it. I loved it. Next was the Old Fashioned. It's made with muddled sugar, (which I watched him do), bitters and whiskey with some citrus zest! Another hit! This dude is legit. Like I said, go see that man. Like I said earlier, I want to drive all the way to MGM just to come hang out at this place. I had that much of a good time there. I will be back.
