“My family and I love coming here! Kid friendly, super clean here and we are always greeted sweetly by the owners and staff and they are so accommodating! One of our go to restaurants. We are always craving their food since there are a lot of tasty options~Few of our top favs!Honey garlic and gangjeong have been the top flavors fried chicken for us, perfect amount of spice and flavor and the chicken is nice and crunchy on the outsideTheir boneless options are good too pleasantly juicy on the inside with a nice crispy texturerose ddeok-bokki- the rice cakes perfectly cooked not too chewy not too hardperfectt texture and the flavors are so delicious. If you don’t have a high spice tolerance this can be a good alternative for you instead of regular ddeok-bokkiKimchi fried rice- delicious can’t go wrong ordering this dish here!We like to order fries and pickled radish with our chicken and it’s byob as well so you can enjoy a nice cold beer all together best combo!! (chi-maek) ❤️“

“My daughter and I traveled from DC to Chicago for a cheerleading competition. We decided to try Porky's... I am not making this up, hands down the best BBQ I've had in years. The combo sandwich with brisket and pork, is phenomenal. The Porkys Beans with brisket, left me speechless. Outstanding customer service to go along with the great taste. Honestly wish I lived in the area, so I could eat here more often.“
“First time in this restaurant! From tender ribs to smoky pulled pork and melt in your mouth brisket, every bite is a flavor explosion!! But it’s not just about the meat—the sides are equally outstanding. Jalapeños cheese corn bread out of this world!“
“Best experience with food, service, and catching up with your loved ones (friends/family) and wasn't rushed to be kicked out. I think theres a timer, but like I said, they let us enjoy our atmosphere and keep bringing the food without us saying. Great service team, they were all on it as if they were our older relative who we hadn't seen in years and kept us happy by bringing dish after dish. I'm definitely coming back more often now that I discovered this spot. I wish I had known this place.“
“Always phenomenal bbq and ambiance! The owners are fantastic and always appreciate their customers. Have tried everything on the menu several times and have yet to have something I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. If you get the chance definitely attend one of their beer/bourbon/bbq dinners..super fun and delicious experience!“
“We usually frequent another family-style Korean restaurant in Schaumburg - which we've loved over the years! Wanted to try something new for a change.Ambience is very cozy - booths (instead of an open space) with traditional touches!Food is DELICIOUS - let's get that out of the way!Some observations:* Salad/sides - tasty, free refills, 5 choices* Bulgogi and pork dish - lots of veggies used as fillers. My kids are 'carnivores' and as such don't eat any veggies. They see meat and attack! The amount of meat we get in each plate is very less.* They should have an option without veggies. We ended up buying 4 plates of bulgogi and 2 plates of pork - just for 3 adults and 2 young kids. One of them had miso soup and I had the bibimbap! Price is reasonable but with volume of less meat, it adds up.* They don't have individual miso soup bowls for kids. It's a large bowl with greens already in it. My kids HATE greens.* Wish there was a easy way to call the waiters/waitresses - no call button and with only 1 person speaking in English, you are at the mercy of that person crossing you or the other waiters passing the message! This also impacts how quickly they could bring things. For ex. we asked for the lettuce and miso paste at the beginning but got it towards the end!* Dessert was a nice suprising touch and we all loved it!Will definitely go back there...now that I know their menu and system better.“
“Loved the experience from this place! The food was phenomenal & service was high quality. Ended up getting the beef bulgogi, crispy tofu, & crispy crunch roll! So flavorful and yummy, highly recommend if you're looking for a lowkey Korean BBQ place! Will be coming back for sure ?“
“I never had Korean barbecue before. I was skeptical. Wow! 6+ stars. All the ingredients were fantastic. Flavors I’ve never had before. I highly recommend anything that says beef. John was the best waiter I have had in a long long, long time.??????Thumbs up“
“Food was great. Traditional Korean food. (Pot stickers was not that great. Very thin)The place itself is very small and they have packed way too many chairs into this place. No elbow space.They would only seat you if your entire party is there. We were 5. But there isn't really a place for us to wait without being right on top of some other diners tables. A bit awkward.“
“Our experience with the Weber grill exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed a variety of dishes, including ribs, pork chops, and meatloaf, all of which were delicious and generously portioned. Joshua provided exceptional service, especially in accommodating my wife's dietary restrictions. He went above and beyond by double-checking with the chefs to ensure her dish was prepared properly. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience, and we look forward to returning next time we're in town.“
“Friendly staffs, Cozy and comfortable restaurant for family, couples, groups. Hot tea and water were offered once we seated Refreshing banchan were offered before our foods arrived, it doesn’t take long for our foods arrive. Crispy fried dumplings were good. Beef Raman noodles were not over cooked, The broth flavor was mild, but good. Beef bugogi was flavorful with rice on the side. Kimchee soup comes with noodles on the bottom side hot stone steamed rice along with the order. We all enjoyed our dishes. We get there right when they open. The place fills up quickly. Highly recommended.“
“Beautiful place with beautiful staff. Highly recommend marinated ribeye(number 14) and all dishes we ordered were absolutely delicious. Julie on staff was very kind and overall amazing experience. Highly recommended. Kimchi Fried rice and spicy chicken were also very good.“
“Like most, we've had a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's Sauce in our pantry for years. I was recently tasked with finding a new place to meet up with friends. With the help of Yelp, I stumbled across Sweet Baby Ray's Restaurant. The BBQ was excellent, the Service was perfect, and the ambiance of the place is just as it should be. I'll be back again soon. If you are in the area and like BBQ, make sure you give them a visit.“

“5 star food and service every time. Tonight we had the pleasure of being waited on by Lupe. Lupe is very passionate making sure he provides excellent customer service for his guests. He knows the menu and explained it in great detail at our table. He offered suggestions when asked and the suggestions were spot on. We started with the corn bread which was warm and the soft butter only made it better. For dinner most of our table had ribs. The ribs were cooked to perfection with the sauce ratio being spot on. You can taste the freshness of the ribs let me tell you, delicious! A few ordered the NY Strip steak with the added optional char, it was amazing. For dessert our table shared a few sundaes and the brownies a la mode. OMG, what a way to end the perfect dinner! Thank you Lupe and all the competent staff for a great dinner. Stop in and ask for Lupe! He will make your dinner or special occasion extra smooth!“
“Lisa was great! She was taking all of the orders AND cooking all of the food too! The food was amazing and she even brought out some special bbq skewers that she made! Our first time there she made it so good, and we can’t wait to come eat there again! Thank you for great day!“
“Got seated immediately which was nice. Waitress was nice also. Ordered the Parmesan Chicken & 1/2 slab ribs with sauce on the side and the loaded sweet potato and Caesar salad. I would recommend ordering the ribs with sauce on the meat instead of on the side. Food arrived promptly, was warm and tasty as it should be. Parmesan chicken was good however I do enjoy the Parmesan encrusted chicken at Cheesecake factory more. Ribs were fall off the bone and tasty. Sweet potato was more like a delicious dessert than a potato as it was covered with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. What could be bad? Overall it was a delicious meal and I would recommend that you give them a try. You won't be sorry. Enjoy!“
“Seated right away, with in 5mins we had bread , water and submitted our order. Wait time was reasonable, portions were appropriate and not over seasoned. Server was very attentive and checked on us periodically with out having to chase her down.Vegetarian options: LackingParking: Many close spots near the front door.“
“Stopped in for a late dinner, good service and we were attended quickly. We had the boneless wings since they were out of the whole chicken and bone in wings. We tried soy garlic & spicy galbi and they were tasty! They were both crispy and good flavors.Food was great, only complaint is the restaurant was uncomfortably hot. My girlfriend and I decided to take the food home since it was so warm inside.“
“Food was good, got the peanut butter burger and had good flavor. Next time i'll be adding onions and pickles on it as I got it the way it came. The pretzel bites were absolutely delicious. If you're a pretzel lover then you have to try these. I got honey mustard on the side as an option instead of the beer cheese. The service was good, but I would've liked to have been told that getting sweet potato fries instead of regular fries was an extra charge. When the options were listed it sounded like it was all an even substitute. The atmosphere was exactly what you would expect, looks like a pub with televisions everywhere and nice folks around.“
“Bub City ORDOne of my go to places when flying in and out of Chicago.I usually get the grilled cheese and haven’t been disappointed yet.If you luck out and go on Friday and Saturday they have live bands.Make sure you try the house honey whisky it will make you wanting to keep coming back.We stopped in on a Thursday afternoon and it wasn’t too busy, server was friendly and the food was quick.Looking forward to my next visit next time I’m back in the Chicago area.Vegetarian options: It’s a BbQ place maybe the coleslaw ?Parking: Parking garage“
“We order the Sampler with the half Alabama Chicken (with skin so crispy and flavorful it makes bacon jealous), brisket, pulled pork, sausage, pulled chicken, corn bread, French fries, Texas Toast, Brussels sprouts, and picked veggies. Easily can feed 3 to 4 people.“
“Always phenomenal bbq and ambiance! The owners are fantastic and always appreciate their customers. Have tried everything on the menu several times and have yet to have something I haven't thoroughly enjoyed.

“I stopped in for dinner at Famous Dave’s on March 28th with a couple of buddies. I’d never been and had to try their bbq - and it was delicious! Highly recommend the brisket nachos, and if you go on a Thursday, their Rib Tip platter is fantastic.The service was incredible too. If you go, ask for Steph. She made sure we were taken care of, went out of her way to share her recs, and even brought the manager by to say hello - really cool guy! Couldn’t have asked for better service.Will definitely be back soon!“
“Great casual steak restaurant with Texas twist steaks are good tasty of good quality with loads of toppings options to modify hearts contentChicken fried steak and chicken are good optionsBbq ribs tender but sauce underwhelmingBread or rolls are tasty warm and fresh!Kid-friendliness: PerfectWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Came here on Sunday, March 3rd 2024. Service was great but a bit slow. The restrooms need to be deep cleaned. Super gross stuff on the sink, no hand soap available, toilet was dirty and bathroom floors felt a bit sticky. The food, however, is amazing. I see why people rave about it. Great quality and taste amazing! Just wish the bathrooms were cleaner!“
“Listen. This IS the All You Can Eat Korean BBQ spot I swear by! This place is calm and straight forward. Food is fantastic. Price is right. And most importantly, the service is amazing! Everyone is so nice and friendly.I love that they place all the sides buffet style too! Get whatever you like from a HUGE assortment of options.BBQ Garden truly is a hidden gem.The owner is always so kind to me and anyone I've ever brought. He and his staff will always have my business.“
“Great service the moment we stepped in.They were so kind and welcoming.The brisket was so tender and juicy. The sauce i used ( they have 5-6 house made sauces) the sweet and spicy sauce, which paired perfectly. Tiny tiny kick with the nice tangy sweetness.I also tried their ribs, which were just melting in the mouth.“
“Ok, so I've never had anything like this before. The food was really good!! Took about 30 min to make. So I know it's all fresh!! Very nice staff!! At first I was questioning the price but wow it's a lot of food lol. The only thing I'm gonna do the next time is ask for extra sauce. That stuff was awesome!! Remember everyone, this is a food establishment that cooks everything. I'd rather know I'm waiting for awhile to get great food then to get food that may get microwaved and givin to me in 10 min. I'll be back soon!!“
“Amazing food, exceptional service and an interesting atmosphere to say the least. I love this place and go fairly often. This is the kind of place everyone should experience once. They don’t accept reservations so if you come during the dinner rush be prepared to wait for close to an hour.“
“Personally to me the BEST BBQ in Lake County hands down !! You have a great selection of meats to choose from and the portions are fulfilling.. The meats here are smoked to perfection with flavor in every bite. You have a variety of sides to choose from, my favorites are the creamy spinach and the Mac and cheese. Nice size portions to go with your meat. Let’s not forget the pickles, THEY ARE A MUST! Sweet but tangy crispy crunch, go hand and hand with your bbq.Surprisingly today it was not as busy as your would expect for it to be a Saturday afternoon, but that meant no line for me and I was not complaining.The prices are worth the portions but be prepared to spend if you have the appetite !Parking: Shared parking lot with neighboring businesses“
“EVERYTHING I'VE ever ordered from here has been nothing short of amazing!!! The food is ALWAYS hot & fresh!!! I usually order my pizza's and beef & sausage sandwiches from here BUT I went outside the box this time and ordered a full slab of ribs and holy schnikeys!!!! These ribs are juicy,tender and flavorful!!! Add another meal to the list of awesomeness!!!! Everyone is pleasant & friendly!!! You've got a lifer for a customer here!!! Keep up the good work,guys & girls!!!“
“Drove 35 minutes to eat here, but was skeptical about how good it would be. I left with a full carryout order of 1/2 chicken for tomorrow, after finishing a 1/2 order at dinner today! Absolutely delicious, and not to mention, very kind owners!“
“The food was really good but not excellent. The corn pudding lacked flavor. It was almost like damp cornbread mixed with corn kernels but no flavor. The pulled pork was good but almost cold when served. I'll definitely try it again because we went when they first opened, and it was a Monday.Kid-friendliness: Large open space as long as you don't let your kids run wild and they will have a good time.Wheelchair accessibility: It's all on one level , with easily accessible doors and parking.“

“I love this place+ the moment I heard Galbijjim was on the menu! You know how hard and rare it is to find this delicious dish? Everyone needs to try it at least one..level 2 spice was perfect! The beef intestine was really fine taste! Very clean and satisfying! I will be back to try the other items on the menu!“
“First time diner, but not last time!Food was plenty full, had great variety, and was very tasteful!Service was efficient, guide me through the menu!It's the first meal, but not the last!The food was filling, very varied and very delicious!Service was efficient, please direct me to the menu!“
“Big Lou’s loves Big Ange’s Eatery! Great vibe! Friendly and courteous service. Excellent food! I personally had the Reuben. Owner Rokko stopped by our table and introduced himself. We talked about naming our businesses after our parents, Big Lou and Big Ange! Ended our lunch with their homemade ice cream which was smooth, creamy and very tasty! Will definitely be back for more when the crew is on the road.“
