The smoke is dialed in just right, the flavors are bold, and the atmosphere strikes a lively balance between rustic barbecue joint and polished night out. It's the sort of place where the aroma alone convinces you you've made the right decision. And the first bite confirms it.

We recently tried this restaurant and the experience was a bit mixed. When we first ordered, we…read morewere told they were out of ribs, which was disappointing but understandable, so we changed the order. Then they had to come back again to let us know they were also out of potato salad. We also noticed that many of the drink options were out of order. At checkout, I noticed an extra charge on the bill that wasn't explained upfront. When I asked about it, I was told it was an added fee to account for inflation instead of raising menu prices. I understand businesses needing to adjust pricing, but extra charges should be communicated ahead of time rather than being a surprise at checkout. While waiting for our food, I used the restroom and noticed there was no soap in either dispenser, and one dispenser was sitting broken on the counter. The back area you through was cluttered with boxes and open cleaning supplies. I was really hoping the food would turn things around. The price for the food was reasonable. My boyfriend enjoyed his meal, but my smoked chicken was a dry and overall I didn't find the food particularly memorable.

This review has been a long time coming because I somehow forgot to post it, but my husband and I…read moremet our friends here in the late summer and it was the first visit for all of us. When we first walked inside, the restaurant felt like a typical bar and grill. However, we asked to sit outside and were pleasantly surprised by how massive the patio area is. I am so glad we chose outdoor seating because the atmosphere back there was completely different and much cooler. Even though we did not play any games or fully explore the backyard area, it was impressive how much space this place has. They clearly host a lot of events and even offer volleyball, pickleball, and bags leagues. It all gives off a very relaxed, social, and fun vibe. Our waiter was also a highlight of the experience. Since it was our first time, we had a few questions about the menu, and he was incredibly helpful, friendly, and personable. The menu itself is large, so it took us a bit to decide what to order, but the prices were very reasonable and the food quality did not disappoint. I ordered the Woodsman Nachos ($14), and they were excellent. The portion size was huge and easily shareable. They were loaded with toppings like chili, jalapenos, lettuce, and multiple cheeses. I forgot to ask for no tomatoes, which was totally my fault, but they were chopped in larger pieces so it was easy enough to remove them. Everyone in our party enjoyed their food, and when I come here again, I think I will order the Nashville chicken sandwich because my friend ordered it and it looked delicious! Overall, this was a great first visit with good food, a fun atmosphere, and friendly service. It feels like the kind of place you could easily spend hours at, especially during warmer months.

There is ample lighting and the staff is welcoming and friendly. The food is BBQ and they have a little bit of everything to offer. That is great, but makes it hard to choose what you want! We certainly had that problem but ultimately were very happy with our meals. They pretty much cover all the bases as far as BBQ and the sides. The flavors were very tasty! Having one in Glen Ellyn won't have us running back to this location but that is only on account of circumstance.

First time at Nobel House in a LONG time and after today I'm not too sure why because this place is…read moreawesome (it was awesome before too though). I think the last time I visit was before the renovations. Inside feels much more spacious and the menu feels more well rounded white a few more healthier options to choose from. I opted for the BYOB with grilled salmon. At first, it looked pretty small but the portion size was just perfect where I felt full but not overly stuffed. Service was great - attentive and personable and we never feel rushed. Hope to be back soon!

Take a pass on the Majong Noodles. Our whole family was so confused about this one. Noodles with clump of sweet peanut butter on top. Not a sauce.

Quesadilla is very filling with fresh tasting shrimp, bacon, and some other fixings. Comes with a side of fries which are also good. Good price and can probably make two meals out of it if you aren't too hungry. You gotta try it!
