It's No Longer Named Bernie's J*** Kitchen & Waffles now its Tha Kitchen same location.And the food was not worth 35.00 ,I pick up my family and I a J*** Salmon Dinner and A J*** Chicken Dinner with a Shrimp Taco..First off the prices are ridiculous for how much food you get . My Taco was a pack of 35cent Corn tortilla shells that was Microwave too long so it was super hard to eat with 4 J*** shrimp on there and some cheese and lettuce for 5.00.. Our dinners had instant Garlic Mashed potatoes in them that was like baby food.. are you serious!!!and the smallest piece of frozen and Thaw Salmon that was burnt not Jerked okay its a difference for $15.00 anytime I pay this much for food I can eat on it for two days..I was so disappointed cause I only went because of The article I read..but I won't be back...

Man they have the worst J*** ever, wait time is a joke! You might as well order your food on Monday to get it by Tuesday evening!!' Also burnt chicken wings was such a disappointment!!! I wouldn't recommend you wasting your time with this establishment!!!

Best comfort and soul food in this area and now Chicagoland hands down! Good every time! Delicious and fresh, very sad they are temporarily closed down.

Great food, horrendous customer service!!! I've eaten takeout from here multiple times, however I decided to do DoorDash and it was a disaster! Staff was very rude about menu items that were available on DoorDash menu but unavailable at restaurant. Lost a great customer

Placed a order through a third party site I was expecting a delivery and unfortunately the establishment waited until I was suppose to receive my food to cancel the order. Now not only has my time bees wasted but my money is tied up for 3-5 business days for food that I don’t even know if it’s worth eating, I guess I just saved myself $24 and a tip and bellyache.

Most J*** places think it is a contest to see how spicy the j*** chicken is. Bernie's has an amazing flavor without being over spiced. Best damn j*** chicken I have had in a very long time!

Your gonna get a different experience every time you go...I’ve been there a total of 3 times. The first time the everything tasted sour or like it had a tang to it including the Mac. Next time I went it was a Friday the food was amazing baked Mac, greens, sweet potato was good just perfect not overly sour either. I just went again today on a Sunday and it wasn’t a pleasant experience the Mac tasted like it was stove top box Mac and cheese. What happened to the baked?!? I just think the experience needs to be the same every time. I refuse to eat from here now because I don’t know how their gonna cook my food. Feels like I’m getting a new cook every time.
The j*** chicken dinner was good. The j*** seasoning was a bit watery and strong citrus taste but the reward is in the smoked flavor from the grill. The j*** sauce more so compliments the Smokey flavor, not exactly the focal point. Overall no complaints.

I was pretty impressed with the food here. Turned out to be hidden gem! I will definitely be back! I will upgrade this review if they're consistent!

Went here for lunch today, I got the quarter chicken and my friend got the half chicken. At the price point I thought a quarter chicken was actually a quarter chicken. What it turned out to be was half of a Cornish hen in size. The sides were pretty large but that did not make up for the fact of the little chicken snack I had. The j*** seasoning they use here is very good. The sides were hot and tasty. I must agree with the other reviews that the girl working the front counter is extremely rude and has a terrible attitude. She requested we pay for our order over the phone because it was over $25.... what!? Then when we picked it up she just stood there... no greeting, no expression it was very weird. I would return if the chicken was the size of a normal chicken other wise just go down the road to white fence farm and get chicken.
