37 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Brookfield

“I don’t do reviews often but when I say I wanted to write this review mid bite! This BBQ restaurant is sooo delicious! Juan is a pit master and a saint! We drove from Chicago to try it and they did not disappoint. Lord forgive me the Waygu beef brisket was a melt in your mouth tender I can only describe as heavenly. I regret not getting more we had samples of the smoked Turkey, tri tip, & hot chicken. We ordered the half chicken, the waygu brisket, street corn, Mac and cheese, slaw, corn bread, to go we had the rice pudding and bread pudding Delicious! I overheard chef describing a smoked gyro they do on Fridays and not a Friday will pass that I won’t think about hightailing it to Beach Ave. BBQ to try it! The experience from the entrance to the exit!! was perfect!! the menu items were fairly priced the dine in area was clean and the staff were attentive and kind! 10/10 would recommend! (The photos I took aren’t great but wanted to show what we had)“

“I had a mistake on my order and I called the staff was amazing . I just wanted my food but they went above and beyond and made it all right the food is great You can go there and be assured your getting good food and service“

“The food was FIRE!!! ? I had the 6pc grilled bbq sauce chicken wings with fries and a Mountain Dew! It came out in 5 minutes and I was very satisfied. $13.50 it was amazing. Super flavorful, fries were seasoned and crispy! Chicken was full of flavor and well cooked perfectly. It came with ranch which I think is homemade! But it was all 10/10. I’ve been a huge fan of other wing places but this straight up trashes them! I’ll be coming here for now on! I can’t wait to come here again! If you’re dieting but want a good cheat meal this is it… You can get a 1/4 chicken grilled with rice and green beans. It’s great ??“

“Stopped in for carryout. Ordering was a bit confusing. We did try the brisket, and it was delicious. The sides were just OK (lots of rice, a few potatoes, garlic, some type of tomato salad, corn, and Cole slaw). They also give you lots of sauces. I would go back and dine in.“

“My friend and I stopped in at Firewater BBQ in Elmhurst on Thursday Dec. 1st for the "Granny's Lunch Box Special" which is available daily from 11AM-2PM. This was my second visit and my friend's first at Firewater. We both ordered the Angus beef brisket sandwich with a side of 3 cheese Mac & Cheese and a soda. The brisket (smoked for 22 hrs) is amazingly tender and flavorful. It was piled high on a toasted brioche bun and is served with your choice of sweet or spicy BBQ sauce or both if you like. The Mac & Cheese is sooo silky-smooth and creamy and compliments the brisket quite well. There are complimentary pickled jalapeños and sweet & spicy pickles available as well. My friend was so impressed by this amazing brisket that he placed another exact order to go to bring home. The cashier who also took our order was very friendly and polite. We told one of the chefs, Shawn, (pictured) that we really enjoyed the brisket and complimented his skills. My friend and I will both be returning to Firewater BBQ and we'll definitely be letting our family and friends know about this wonderful BBQ spot.“

“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.“

“customer service was excellent and precise pretty Black Woman Sandra and Handsome cook Tony Best Hotdog I have ever had better than Portillo’s Clean establishment and had to give an compliment when due to staff“

“Wow, what an incredible BBQ experience! I'm still drooling just thinking about it...The meats were tender, juicy, and full of flavor - the brisket literally melted in my mouth! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone delicious, and the pulled pork was so tender it just fell apart.The staff is friendly, the service is top-notch, and the prices are super reasonable.If you're a BBQ lover like me, you HAVE to try this place out. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!“

“Smitty's ale house is at the location of the old stores, the spirits bar not the strip club. They really did not change much from the outside. The new owners updated the bathrooms, looks like they expanded the kitchen and removed the dj booth. All probably good moves, based off of the history. The aaa staff was nice and engaging. The crowd for a bears Sunday was a lot lighter than the places previously iteration . That may be due to the bears sucking this year though. There was also less staff but enough for the limited crowd. For an ale works they had pretty standard beers on tap. Looked like only one rotating tap out of the 10 on the taps. Not a very deep option for beer needs. I do think any bar named Smitty's should have guineas on tap . I had the steak quesadillas. They were solid bar food. Overall thisplace is worth the stop but needs a bit more to stand out.“

“Wonderful server and good food!“

“The food is ? ribs, pulled pork, chicken, and the pork chop. Tried it all. Chop was tender a little dry. the sauce fixed it right up! the sauce is really good . It's thin vs. a thick sugar sauce. Good stuff!!! The pork chop is thick it's in the pick with the fork in the beans cup, and they offer a double chop. I'm definitely going back!!“

“We got a 16” pepperoni pizza and breaded zucchini. The total with tax and small tip was $33. Not bad and on par with other area pizza joints. This pizza was pretty good. Enough cheese and each slice had at least 1-2 pieces of pepperoni on it. The sauce was also pretty good. The only thing I didn’t like was the crust. Well it was don’t perfectly, it seems just a little chewy. But no where near enough where I wouldn’t get it again. I would recommend Duncan and Dada’s and would actually get the pizza again. My wife loves the breaded zucchini. The pieces were big, unlike other area places where it’s small pieces and all you get is breading. She said it’s her favorite breaded zucchini.We will definitely be back.Parking: Park in the front of the building I’m for easy access to pick up food. If you want to bowl, park in the back.“

“I have been coming to squabs for years now along with my family. They always have the most tastiest foods and my favorite is the gyro plate because it’s such a good portion that can be made into two meals if you are spreading out your meals. I came in one day 10 minutes till closing, they still made my order with much love and care, and I appreciate their service. 100% recommend squabs and trying out their menu items since there is many delicious options.“

“1st time going now tbh 20 mins wait was actually 10 min!!!! You lady called the people in the back 4xs just to show me how big a large pan was ????. I got the large also a pan would be amazing if you have a greedy partner in crime( my kids). Now to the food fully covered in sauce big plus meat was tender and juicy. Smokey taste check once again yall know I love my fries ?? combination of grease and bbq sauce made me an excellent French frie sandwich.... basically take the bread scoop up the fries in the bread dip it in the sauce OMG... gotta go back also yes this place is worth a try guys“

“no I sure don't my gyros had a hard pita I complained and they had such a bad attitude they need to learn customer service I will no longer go there and tell me o get the police“

“This is a pretty good bar. Every time I've been here the staff and patrons have all been nice. The bars seems to be clean. I haven't tired the food here yet, but when I do I'll update my review. If you want a cold beer, then it's not a bad place to come to.“

“It's so nice to be out at a restaurant! This location is poppen so be prepared to wait a lil bit. We always sit at the bar and Angela was busy! She was friendly and never stopped moving! Our shrimp was salty to me but my husband at it all.“

“5 stars and no complaints !!I am very picky person and also I usually cook meal at home so I never feel outside restaurant food fresh. BUT, The food is so delicious and fresh here and service is great. Price is reasonable and specially the place is very clean. We can’t wait to go back again.“

“we were at a wedding that had an after party that was changed at the last minute to this bar. Our bar tender Odette, was amazing. She handeled the whole party of 50+ with such grace and ease. The service at this bar is exceptional. Thank you for making the night fantastic for our group!“

“Service polite and quick. Space clean and well organized. Ordered the Papa Q platter, everything was good, especially the pork belly and sausage. Sides were cornbread, sweeter than traditional, mac q roni- tasty, coleslaw- creamy and traditional, and mashed potatoes with gravy-really good. Hush puppies were yummy too. Three sauces on table are all good individually but I mixed them all together, delish!“

“First we used the app to check in. It said 1 hour waiting. Which was as expected. But it was 90 minutes before being seated. 2nd reason food was not as my husband and I ordered. We ordered our steak medium rare. It was cooked to medium. I ordered a side of mushrooms. The mushrooms were on my steak.The waiter was alright. Since they were extremely busy. But the food was upsetting!“

“This is good place for bbq. I got burnt ends, cajun fries and corn bread. Burnt ends were tender and had a nice kick to it. Corn bread was moist and fries were nicely seasoned but a little overcooked. Was going to try their bread pudding but most of their items contain nuts which was unfortunate.“

“muy buen sabor y mu amables“
