That's easy barbecue. Taste great. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a taste of barbecue who doesn't want to spend all day in a restaurant. read more

Oh my gosh. Please do something about the horrendous noise created by diners dragging the chairs at the tables. The chairs are extremely heavy and the noise disturbs a very pleasant dining experience. Putting something on the legs where they touch the floor could work. Please , the patio is a great eating experience except for the terrible constant noise. Please read more

This is just an update from previous review. Patio is our go to spot, but this is the first time having fried mushrooms. They were delicious. Order was enough for two people. Also had mozzarella sticks and they were good too. read more

Today I had the Monterey Chicken sandwich and shared cheese fries with my 5 yr old. Everything was pretty good.

Absolutely delicious & HUGE portion sizes! I got the pulled pork sandwich- perfectly cooked and love the bun. Fries were marginal and I would skip those next time. My partner got the Oreganato Chicken - Wow wow wow - so much good & chicken was hot and juicy - perfectly cooked! Baked was really good & no attempt made on the giant side salad as she was too full. Clean, efficient & friendly service! Winner read more

Picked up dinner via the drive thru and it was great! Very friendly staff took our order and we waited just a few minutes for an employee to bring our food out to the car. They have a large menu with a lot of nice options. The prices are pretty reasonable for the portions and they usually have coupons available as well as rewards on their app. We went with the chicken kabobs and full slab of ribs. The kabobs were great! Very flavorful and well seasoned and came with a delicious rice pilaf, pita bread, and some tomato slices. One or two chunks were a little chewy but overall they were great. The ribs were also flavorful and the bbq sauce was nice. Not too sweet and a little smokey. The ribs came with choice of potato, French bread, and coleslaw. We will definitely order again! read more

Great kabobs, burgers and Gyros I especially like the chicken kebabs with rice . I recommend this place read more

Yummy BBQ and good kids options. They don't give much cole slaw and the French bread instead of corn bread with the plate is odd. Everything tasted good, just wish we had a little more coleslaw and didn't need to add on cornbread read more

Wow delicious bbq chicken meal with side of garlic mash potatoes and baked bbq beans. Chicken was so tender and moist and grilled to perfection! Also got a cheeseburger with cheese fries! Can't go wrong. Great chargrilled burgers! Will be back! read more

Anyone who left a negative review here is an entitled privileged a-hole acting like a child who didn't get to eat candy and froot loops for dinner, because I just ate here today and loved it. The guy who took our order was attentive and super accommodating when I asked to add an additional item to my order. They made their greek salad to perfection. Great portions and delicious flavor to that additional chicken I requested. My mother had the fish tacos and thought they were delicious. And that's coming from a woman who grew up in Michoacan eating authentic tacos and Mexican food all her life. The ambiance was beautiful. Had a great open window view with a very clean environment and great seating options. read more

Now I remember why I haven't been to The Patio in over 10 years.....the ribs are WAY too salty and barely any meat and the meat was tough to chew. read more

Stumbled on this place because it was close to the Fox Valley Mall. This place was great for me and my family. The food was hot and fresh to order. The service of the staff was also great no complaints. read more

I haven't taken the time to do a review in a really long time. I always review the best restaurants and rarely review the worst and in my opinion, this place was the worst. This was our first time there and we didn't know what to expect. We always just saw a lot of cars there so we assumed the food was good, we took a chance and man were we wrong! First thing that happened to me when I walked in the door was the overwhelming stench of a truck stop smelly bathroom is the only way that I can describe it. It's the smell of the cheaply used deodorizer in the bathroom. It was so strong, it hit you when you walked in the door That alone, should have made me run out the door. The menu was overwhelmingly large which tells you that most of the food comes pre-frozen. I don't think anything is made fresh there. I had the fish tacos. they weren't bad they just had no seasoning whatsoever. Salt couldn't even save them. My husband had the barbecue bacon burger, which he said the meat was not seasoned and he didn't think it was real beef because it didn't taste like meat. It was just a messy burger nothing special. We also ordered the mozzarella sticks, which literally look like ! The outside was so hard I actually had to use a knife to get through it. The outside batter looked old, almost frost bitten, really unedible. The cheese was OK. The sauce came from a jar. We are family new to the area so we've been trying all the restaurants around us that we can. This one really made an impact on me of how poor the quality of food was and how low our standards have really become, but this is all just my opinion. I hope it helps for anyone in the future. read more

Overall place was not crowded and the order was taken really fast. Unfortunately for my experience everybody in my table received their order with the exception of me. After a while I stood up and went to the counter to see what was taken so long, and it turns out they never received the ticket to start my order. I had the Santa Fe salad, and we tried the pull pork sandwich. The pull pork sandwich was really dry. Salad was ok, and the pull pork sandwich was extremely dry and no BBQ sauce. We also tried the Baked potato and cream of rice soup of the day, and the better soup by far is the baked loaded potato. They have many others items on the menu, and will keep you guessing on what to chose when is your turn to order. read more

Husband had lunch from this place catered at his office and liked it so we stopped in this weekend. Definitely recommend the ribs and brisket, the brisket is delicious! And it's hard to find good brisket. I'd skip the Mac and cheese and try a different side. The corn bread is good. Fries are ok, but I would try something else next time. Tons of seating and everyone was very nice. Will definitely eat here again. read more

I took a group of coworkers here while in the area for a conference. The patio is great for groups because everyone can place their separate orders and then sit at a shared table. Service was speedy. Restaurant was clean. Love the cream of chicken and rice soup. My group loved the salads, chicken sandwhich, and grilled chicken. They serve pepsi products. read more

The food had very little taste and was dry. The service was not great either considering the restaurant was empty. The restaurant was also pretty dirty throughout and they were playing inappropriate music with a lot of cussing and sexual references which was weird for a BBQ restaurant in a suburb that is supposed to be family friendly. I rarely leave less than a 4 star review but we were pretty disappointed with this place. read more

Service was excellent. I went in during lunch, inside was not too crowded. I ordered the santa fe salad, and the shrimp dinner. The salad is huge, and the shrimp were crispy and delicious. Definitely will eat here again. read more

This place is very clean and well lit. The food was very, very good, nice and hot and fresh. Service was excellent. The only problem we had was a kid was cleaning up and dropped one of the containers of barbecue sauce and quite a bit of it landed on my son's shirt and pants. read more

Food is always excellent especially the Roasted Chicken. Plenty of food in the entree to last two meals. We go every Tuesday. Last week the restaurant had 2 new young employees, James and Aidan. I would like to give them a shout out! They had smiles on their faces every time they came to our table and were both extremely helpful. We go to this location weekly and are never dissatisfied. The staff and food outstanding. read more

The food was good selection is many You order at the desk and they bring it to the table The barbecue is okay nothing to write home about But it is a family friendly place read more

First time here! And I will be back. Had the Cajun chicken kebabs with rice a coleslaw, chicken was moist and flavorful rice was fluffy and had a little spice to it in a good way! The inside of the restaurant was clean and modern and the service was excellent, They do have a outdoor patio and they do have a bar with beer and wine. Totally recommend. read more

the attitude of our server, Irma, was very poor. the way she served our food was with an attitude and when i asked for ranch, her stank face was present as if i did something wrong. after, i noticed her attitude with other customers was better. food was good tho lol read more

The food here is the best love the Greek chicken. So so sorry to see the seafood gumbo go off the menu. I am so bummed.

I'm familiar with the Patio Restaurants as I have been several times to their Lombard and Willowbrook locations. The Aurora location was just as good as the other 2 locations. Ordering at the front counter went quickly. If it matters to you, they have Pepsi products, not Coca Cola products. We get the fried zucchini with garlic dipping sauce. It always comes out so hot that we have to let it sit for about 10 minutes before it is cool enough to eat. Today we ordered the Cobb Salad and I had the burger with bacon, cheddar cheese and an onion ring on a pretzel roll. It was a weighty 1/2 lb. burger cooked through yet juicy and flavorful. A special thanks to the employee who found my cell phone and gave it to a manager to keep in the back until I returned looking for it read more

Pulled pork sandwich is 4 solid stars! Tender juicy pork with great bbq sauce. Sauce came on the sandwich. I wish I got it on the side! Sides: Mac n cheese 3 stars - it is missing a bit of cheese flavor. The creaminess is good but lacks the flavor of a good cheesy mac n cheese. Roasted veggies are yummy! 4 stars. Good size portion for a side. Zucchini, green beans, squash , onion, red peppers. I like the seasonings on the veggies. The coleslaw is a 3 star. Creamy good crunch. Ok flavor that is sweet/sour. Not much color! Mostly cabbage and a splash of carrots. I ordered my meal on door dash for delivery for dinner! read more

I went to this restaurant recently out by Fox Vally and this had to be the worst experience. The ribs paid over $80 for three meals. The ribs tasted like beef jerky. They were so old they told us they were made to order. There's no way these ribs are made to orderstick with Portillo's not worth the money. There's a reason they're parking lot was empty. Used to love it here but the food is definitely gone downhill. read more

The food is always good and fresh and their cream of chicken soup is our fav! the owner or manager is always so nice, definitely a good business man helping his staff. Portions are really good and the triple aaa discount is a nice perk! i do wish they would bring the grilled veggie sandwich back! read more

The Patio has an excellent selection of food. I've been dining at their locations for a few years and appreciate their adding different items. Though, I often find myself ordering the BBQ brisket soft tacos. They're really good! I also appreciate that they have several types of dessert. I recommend the carrot cake. read more

Atrociously bad for the price that they charge. if you microwaved frozen food at home it would taste just as good, if not better. the fries were terrible and it's really hard to mess up fries so i give them credit. i ordered an italian beef sandwich for $15 and i couldn't get past one bite. it tasted like a middle schooler's dirty sock after gym class. whatever you do don't go here, i would have rather gone to mcdonald's. genuinely. read more

Relying on coworkers' reviews, we came here for lunch on Friday. We arrived shortly after 11:30am and there was no wait. The restaurant is set up in a dining-for-dummies format in which people are quickly expedited through the process. When you first walk in, you're faced with these huge panel screens that display their extensive menu -- they serve everything from BBQ to sandwiches to salads. It's somewhat of a sensory overload and too many choices for the indecisive. Beyond the huge ordering boards, you proceed down the hall to the ordering line, After you order, turn around and face the soda fountains to get your drink, and walk beyond those to get to the dining room. Easy restaurant set up, no thinking involved! I chose the easy route and picked the first thing on the menu: their famous rotisserie chicken. Even this simple item comes with three choices: original, BBQ, or garlic flavor. Beyond that, you choose how you want your potato side: fried, baked, or mashed. Your order comes with a huge piece of bread, butter, coleslaw, and a side plate for bones and a wet wipe. I ordered the quarter-sized BBQ chicken and I'm so glad I picked this size instead of the half -- it was more than enough food for one person. I really liked the chicken, it was tender and cooked well, falling off the bone easily. I didn't care much for the sauce as it didn't seem very unique, just a generic BBQ sauce...next time I would probably just go for the original flavor. All in all, a reasonably priced meal for lunch! Love the atmosphere of the dining room as it's wide open and really does feel like a patio. Will come back! read more

Good food at a reasonable price Food is delivered to your table after you order and pay. Friendly staff

Came in today to buy a slice of cheesecake like every year for my family member's birthday, but got a half-slice and charged $6.59. (it was 4+5 dollars per slice last year). Went back and mentioned this, the workers inside gave me a new slice that was just shorter and wider and not actually larger and said that next time it won't be that big. There won't be a next time because I'm taking my business elsewhere for the poor service/rudeness. Also, there was moisture in the cake container itself and the handling of the cake-cutting knife was questionable for food safety. (Rinsed in tap water then stuck in a can with tap water until next person ordered even though it's dairy products on the knife...) the patio at this location was better in the past but has declined over the years. read more
