Ordered cream of chicken soup with rice, brisket sandwich, mushrooms with garlic dip & roast chicken oregano. Everything was delicious!

I usually order the Greek chicken dinner. It's always yummy and reasonably priced. The cream of chicken soup is also yummy. May try the steak sandwich on my next visit. read more

The Patio - Fish Sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Darien, Illinois

Great spot for ribs! The last time I went for a quick group lunch, we ordered ribs and salads. Our food came out rather quickly in about 10 minutes. My favorite dishes here are the dry rub ribs and cranberry blue cheese salad. Will defs be back! read more

I rarely order beef when I go out, but saw the brisket and thought it sounded good. The meal came quickly, but the brisket was disgusting! It was shiny, greenish reflections, over cooked, fatty, had veins in it and was just a major disappointment. My husband got half an order and ate none of it either. I had maybe two pieces and struggled to chew and swallow them. A complete waste of $40! All thrown away, inedible. The garlic potatoes were good, so was the coleslaw. Don't throw your money away on the brisket. Yuck! read more

Friendly and efficient staff. The ribs are too dry at times. Shrimp and chicken have been fine. For the most part tables are clean.

Very disappointe. The dry rub full slab of ribs or literally as dry as the seasoning. Not worth the $31 at all. Also ordered the steak kebabs. They were good but not worth $30. It was about 6 ounces of meat. I'm just not worth the paid $70 for everything. He was disappointed. Will not order again. read more

Fabulous ribs and all their other food is good too. Soups excellent and we order these regularly especially in cold weather. Love the drive thru service as well. read more

The food was sooo delicious here. I got an apple pecan salad with chicken and the chicken was so well seasoned and not dry at all. The dressing was not too heavy, sweet and complimented the rest of the dish well. I also got the Cajun shrimp which tasted best with a squeeze of lemon on it, otherwise it was slightly dry. But the seasoning was yummy. My boyfriend got the brisket and it was so soft and the sauce was incredible. Next time I'll get that. It's a la carte so it is a little pricey, but worth the cost. You order your food and then it's brought to the table, it was pretty fast service. The restaurant is casual but feels a little more fancy than most restaurants of this style in the dining area. I definitely recommend it. So many yummy options. read more

One of our favorite places in the Burr Ridge/Darien/Hinsdale area. The staff is the best. The servers are attentive and well mannered. Kim is the manager and helped me locate a lost item that fell out of my pocket the previous day. They make you feel like you're at home . Fave dishes are the salads, grilled cheese, BBQ sandwiches, skewer/kabobs, and sweet potato waffle fries. read more

A go to. Everything is good. Order ahead with a twenty minute lead time and You should be fine. Inside is clean, efficient, and inviting. Good for carry out or dine in. Well run by good people. Good for families and in good weather you can usually eat outside. They have their own barbecue sauce. Go get a kabob or a pulled turkey sandwich, or a hot dog. The Patio will take care of You. read more

I ordered delivery and it took an hour and it was frustrating but the turkey barbeque sandwich was delicious!

The service is too slow. Food was not hot after waiting 20 when they were empty. Ribs were way overcooked. Should have went to chucks.

The Patio is an awesome local chain so my wife and I decided to go to their Darien location one night for dinner. I ordered the chicken ranchero sandwich, which is chicken breast, bacon, lettuce & tomato and a ranch aioli. It was delicious! I had a bite from my wife's pulled pork sandwich and I told her that I'd try that when we're back. Service was quick and friendly - we will definitely be back! read more

My family has been going to The Patio for over 30 years now. We would go with my grandparents when we were little and now make a special trip every time I'm in town. I'm obsessed with their Breaded Mushrooms and the garlic dipping sauce that it comes with. That honestly makes them spectacular - I can eat an entire basket myself. I will only get ribs from here. The meat literally falls off the bone. And I absolutely love their bbq sauce. The Pulled Pork Sandwich has enough meat to make three sandwiches - incredible. read more

I got the ribeye sandwich the steak was great but they put it on a hamburger bun not a great choice for the bread Italian bread would've been a better choice Will know next time lol. read more

Food was fire ash had a loaded Chicago dog and a huge brisket burger w some surprisingly good watermelon tea. Would reccomend

Always delicious and consistent. Soup is something I normally get, I like all of the varieties. All the food is solid and we get it all the time. Some favorites are the lemon oreganto chicken, the chicken wings, and the appetizers. read more

Ribs were rubbery. Apparently no quality control. Big disappointment especially at that cost. Couldn't even cut it with a knife.

The patio restaurant is always a good choice for lunch and dinner. Very good food and large portions. You will not walk away hungry.

I have had their lemon orzo soup once a year ago and it was delicious. The last two times I ordered, however, I am receiving chicken noodle soup with not a hint of lemon. If out of lemon soup, please remove from menu and don't substitute. read more

Ribs were dry, bland in flavor; only one sauce was offered and tasted watered down. Paid $30 for the full ribs dinner. Albeit it was a large portion, the meal overall was mediocre at best. read more

-Great food (Ribs & Pulled Pork) -Excellent Friendly Service, FAST -No pressure on the POS system to press you for a tip. Ridiculous practice at many restaurants. Top it off, Wayne the "big boss" accepted a $10 gift card from (20) years ago that we recently found. They definitely have earned my future business. "Bravo" Darien Patio Team read more

The ribs and chicken are very good. The food keeps me coming back. The staff is typically rude at the drive thru, but we love the food. read more

The Greek Oreganato Chicken is the best rotisserie chicken that I've tasted in a long while, especially in this geographic region. We enjoyed the takeout version but I definitely will dine in house one of these days. The sweet potato waffle fries are very tasty. read more

#66-2021 Another Patio small local barbecue and more based in the Chicago area. Hadn't been here to Darien for quite some time but I have to say walking in was very impressed at how clean it was. Last patio experience was in Orland and it wasn't quite as good and neither was the food. From my house to the Orland location into here it's only about an extra 12 minutes or so to drive to here. Came and wanted to get one of the usuals have slab of ribs couple of sides and a beer. So me and Dad decided to have 1/2 slabs of ribs with french fries he opted for coleslaw I opted for the mac and cheese and I got a Coors light. Beer was cold but they don't give you cold glasses there unlike some of the other locations that do. that's something they could possibly work on they only have plastic cups but it is what it is. The main thing that separates you from Orland visit about a month ago was the meeting this at the ribs the half slab I had was fantastic the french fries were great they were not burnt and the mac and cheese was really really cheesy. All in all a nice experience sat down they brought out the food in a fairly timely manner it took a little longer than Orland but they had a ton of calling orders and app orders I could see the styrofoam containers lining up so it was fine. Staff were nice accommodating Walking out used the can to wash my hands was very clean. supplies were very well stocked and all in all definitely will come back here to Darien over Orland in my opinion now. read more

Sorry to say, but The Patio, Darien, IL is NOT the place for BBQ-RIBS. Jewel grocery stores, Marianos, Pete's Fresh Market all have far superior bbq ribs. Save yourself the disappointment in a few extra dollars and go somewhere else for barbecue ribs. read more

Delivery is never available so go through the drive through. Great BBQ but kind if a hassle with service

For our 55th anniversary my husband didn't want to go to a noisy restaurant. The Patio came through with a tasty perfect lemon salmon dinner for him and excellent chicken kebab with Cajun rice. That with the bottle of Prosecco from our wine rack made the perfect anniversary meal. Thank you! Food and service read more

Skip this location. It's dirty. Dirty bathrooms, drink station, floors. The Bolingbrook location is spotless. Ordered chicken kabobs. Chicken was stringy and dry. Vegetables were mushy. Side of broccoli, broccoli was old. They always say dirty bathrooms = dirty kitchen. Oh and no hot water in bathrooms. Ick!!!! Sorry, won't be back to this location!! read more

Love the salads at the patio and go there about three times a month. Had dinner there tonight and wanted to give a big thumbs up to the young lady at the order taking counter. Her name is Skyy. She is very pleasant, helpful and kind. I hope they keep her around. read more

We are done with this location! Shouldn't be 25 minutes for two cheeseburgers and a large fry??!! Only to be disappointed with undercooked burgers and cold fry's. This location has been off for a while now and we refuse to spend that kind of money for meh food and service. Clean up your act Patio. read more
