    Beef Brisket Sandwich with French Fries
    Kristal M.

    I've been coming here for years and for the longest time they only took cash, but now they take debit and credit! The food never disappoints, the barbecue sauce is the best. Also, one side of the restaurant they have an aquarium I didn't take a picture of it but it's so awesome.

    This place was delicious. The ordering process was easy and well organized. It may seem it was a long line but it wasn't. There were more people doing carry out. The place wasn't bright but the room decor was filled. A few tvs and employees bustling around, serving, cleaning and helping. When I got to the table someone came by to ask if I wanted bbq sauce. I said yes. They must keep tabs on the bottles because as soon as we were done someone came and picked it up right away. We ordered the pork chop dinner and beef brisket dinner. The pork chop dinner came with 2 chops and a few pieces of bread. The chops were thick and tender and delicious. The sides were simple but also good. The beef brisket was sliced thin. It was a couple ounces but didn't seem like much meat. It came with a piece of corn, 2 pieces of garlic toast and the sides I wanted. This was plenty to eat but wished the brisket were thicker slices or had a little more meat. I will be back to try other things but glad to have made it here.

    Ribeye Steak Burrito Dinner Wednesday
    Daniel S.

    Well known BBQ restaurant in the far south suburbs. Their BBQ dishes are all good. I got the rib tips and liked them. I did try something different the next time I went, and tried the ribeye steak burrito. It wasn't bad, but not on par with their other signature dishes. It's best I'd say to stick to the more traditional barbeque dishes. All the sides I've tried have all been good too-the fries, the curds, the mac n cheese. The inside is nice, a good western decor. Your order at the counter, and then they bring the food out to you. A pretty big parking lot so that shouldn't be an issue. If you live nearby and are a fan of meats, then it's definitely worth checking out.

    Pay attention to what be charged for!

    Went with a large group of family members to celebrate a birthday. I ordered the ribeye dinner special and my husband ordered a full slab of ribs dinner. They asked what side we wanted and I asked for Mac and cheese, for my soup the cream of chicken, and a baked potato. The hubby had red potatoes and Mac n cheese. Mac and cheese lacked any real flavor tasted bland. But the kicker was they charged each side as additional charge to the dinner price which was suppose to be included. My husband didn't bother to question until I asked him. We drove 45 minutes and don't plan on going back. Steak and ribs were good. Most family members ordered the pork chop and they were happy with it.

    Huge & Tender Pork Chop Dinner

    I have seen this place for years and never stopped by to try it, but today was the day! I ordered the grilled pork chop and it came with two sides. The pork chop was grilled to perfection and juicy. It was probably the thickest and juiciest pork chop I've ever had. The red potatoes were delicious. I wasn't a fan of the green beans, but they have other sides to choose from. They were bland to me to be honest. Their service is amazing. They must always have pork chops on the grill because I received my order about 2 minutes after placing my order. The food was hot, so it wasn't like it had been sitting there for awhile. It was definitely fresh. The inside is pretty large in size, but it's very dark inside. If you want to take pictures of your food I would recommend takeout.

    Amazing place. Food came out so quick! You get lots of food in your order. You won't be hungry.

Which lead me to find Retro Burger. They have pretty good reviews and it is super close to her home, so I decided on going there. They had a decent crowd of people when I pulled up. Major props to one man doing it all alone!! Even taking phone orders. I didn't wait long, maybe 15-20 min am fine waiting for fresh food. I ordered two meals and when I got home, I was impressed. The french fries were good. Not too soft, just the right thickness and flavor. The Burger looked and smelled amazing. My grandma was just raving how good it was. I had the chicken sandwich which was good (I don't eat beef and tbo it is rare I find an amazing chicken sandwich). The ingredents were very fresh and the bun was perfect on both. They only have cans of pop which I prefer. I also, was happy to see the sandwich packaging is compostable, that is bonus points!!! All in all this is a 5 star!! We will be back. Sorry, no photos, we forgot and ate it all. lol

So you get it the way you want plus the owner cuts it all fresh to order! Buns are fluffy meat is flavorful and toppings are FRESH like everything else. This comfortable place serves phenomenal Burgers, Hot Dogs and service. If you're in town and want a great bite instead of all the poisonous food thats around stop and and show some love at this homemade burger spot. I will from now on support this spot whenever i get the chance and it definitely up my expectations in this world.

    Stopped in after work about a week ago to try the Italian beef and polish. I'd heard great things…read morefrom the owner through various clips and videos about the quality. Sadly everything was false. The beef was one of the worst I've ever had...any mom and pop hood spot could match or beat it. The polish was long and skinny and unremarkable as well. I ordered butter garlic fries that tasted exactly like regular fries...which was also a first. I know they were not regular fries because those came with my polish and were even worse. This place is jokingly slow...they messed my order up as I should have had another Italian beef and the staff was pretty unprofessional as they got super heated over the cashier not helping the cooks...it was bad. This place is bad...almost anyplace else is better...hell McDonald's is better.

    Friend & I ordered delivery and overall we think it was a miss. My friend had a burger and I got a…read moreshrimp basket. My shrimp were overcooked and soggy (no ventilation in the styrofoam) and not much flavor. No seasoning at all on the fries, it was a pretty tasteless meal. My friend said the burger was ok but buns also a little soggy and not super flavorful meat. They make sweet and spicy pickles and those were added but only 2 slices for $1 upcharge seem unreasonable they were the best thing tho. We probably won't try it again.

I'm the only black person in the bar he made me feel very uncomfortable and I feel that this is racially motivated. He didn't treat the other people like this at all, he catered to them and was pleasant. I believe that something was wrong with my drink and I don't trust this place, I have never been to a bar and got this sick before and the bartender gets angry that I point out that something is wrong. I will go to the hospital if I feel any worse. BEWARE OF THIS PLACE The drink was $12, the kind of treatment is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE! EDIT: immediately after posting my review I received a direct message , saying that im only here to get a free drink and they see people like me all of the time (hmmm I wonder what that means) When I was actually looking for a bar to frequent and have a good time. I actually told my server that I was there for several drinks tonight. However, after my interaction and the message I received I am now POSITIVE that the bartender is racist and had someone message me to attack me.
