They've changed their BBQ sauce. Tastes terrible. So that's why the two star rating. As long as not getting roast beef sandwich and putting BBQ on it, it's fine.

Ok, we went thru the drive-thru, so ambience can't be part of my review. That lets us focus straight on the food. Now, I remember Rax from decades ago. I've not had a Rax Roast Beef since 1989 or 1990. And a big pox on management for not showing any solid leadership - someone must have paid the C-suite to tank the brand, as they've shrunk mightily. One would think it's the food. Au contraire. We got a regular Rax, a King Rax, and Twisty Fries, along with a chocolate shake. WOW. I was blown away. It essentially tossed the Arby's roast beef into the garbage- the bun was warm, soft, buttery..... the meat? Spectacular. their BBQ sauce was less tasty than I'd remembered- the Twisty Fries were just spot on fantastic! Why this place isn't growing again is beyond me! The food is awesome, and we'll gladly make the drive from the NW Suburbs to Joliet to have this delectable roast beef sandwich again. Try it- it's REALLY good!

I miss this place. I wish they still had one in Minnesota. It's way better then Arby's. The big Rax is unbeatable in my opinion. Guess I have to travel just to treat myself to perfection.

$7 for a bratwurst with NO fries or drink!?! Insane. I used to come here and I know they aren't the cheapest but come on!! I just stopped by to try the brat. Not worth it. The money or the taste. Also, chili was terrible. I do like their curly fries though. Two stars and that's generous. Sad actually, and I I know we don't have any other Rax in Illinois.
