Cheap beer and decent food. 3.5-4 stars. I went on a Tuesday and got their quesadilla style barbacoa tacos and it was better than I expected. Sauces that came with it were good. One comment, the normal fries were a bit plain. Everything else was fine.

We ordered the Thanksgiving catering meal for an early Thanksgiving dinner. Everything was hot, delicious and done to perfection. Extremely happy with my choice to order from Big Joe’s. Highly recommend!!

Got a full slab yesterday. Very dry and chewy like they've been sitting since the day before. Very disappointed because I was at the other location a few times and always enjoyed it. Don't think I'll be back.

Ordered the barbacoa taco dinner. It was amazing! The time we were quoted was perfect and as we arrived it was getting packaged. This was our second time there, we have not been disappointed. So good! Thanks Joe!

Went for the taco but i didn't do enough research to find out it was only for Tuesdays, my boyfriend and i both got the pulled pork sandwiches with fries and their mac & cheese. Let me tell you pulled pork sandwiches is one of my favorite things to eat and this is now going to be my favorite place to go for it. Amazing portions, great flavors. I can't wait to tast these tacos because they look amazing! Definitely coming back, probably on a Tuesday! Haha

Giving this four stars because I absolutely LOVE big joes backyard bbq and love supporting joe. He consistently puts out amazing food and I'm excited he's closer to home now. Lost a star because service from bartending staff can use a little work. Came on chip night and it took a while to order my food, never came back to check how it tasted, and never received a chip. Joe shouldn't have to be coming out to do the extra steps of service that front of house should be hitting. Wasn't terrible service, but can use some tweaks to be better and more attentive. There is always room for improvement. Food is amazing though and will keep me coming back when I have time!

I won't be coming back to this place. I'm losing my A** on their slot machines/video poker machines and the bartender comes up and says we're closing early tonight. Place shouldn't advertise open till 200a.m if they are gonna close half hour to an hour early because the bartender isn't making enough money. Don't have the slot machines if your not gonna stay open until the listed time!!!!
If your grabbing dinner to go Suggest you call ahead. If you ain't drinking it's a long wait. The barbecue sauce is good however the ribs are to salty and the membrane on the back of the ribs should be removed before smoking. At $25 a slab it's worth the added labor. I'm thinking the muffins are served cold because I live three blocks away by time I got home they were ice cold. The fries were delicious the mac & cheese crammed into the side container just subpar the ranch dressing for the wings was disgusting tasting I couldn't even eat it . Food quality a little inconsistent room for improvement I'm sure They'll get there Joe and the bartender were very nice and polite.

Came here to celebrate the 244th Marine Corps Birthday. TC Pub did a great job setting up the party and included $4 16-ounce drink specials, a stage with a band who played the Marine anthem, and a cake. I appreciate all of the effort they put into making this day a special one for all of the marines and their families. It didn't hurt that I also won some money at their slot machines in the back! Plus they have plenty of parking and friendly staff. Not sure what the place is like when they aren't having an event and the bathroom was in desperate need of a cleaning, hence the four stars.

Where do I begin with TC's. For one, it is the best bar in Oak Lawn, and near south side of Chicago. TC's offers your standard beers, and they make some really good mix drinks. They even have some of the best deals for drinks compared to the other establishments nearby. Also another great thing about this place is chip night. TC's does a great job hiring its staff. My favorite bartender is Kylie. She is quick at getting you your drink so you can enjoy it cold, and I have never had a problem with her. Some places I have been to in the past seem to take your order, and come back 10 years later with your warm drink. TC's is the place you should go to if you want to have a good time and good drinks.

Decent above average food and drinks plus friendly staff. Try the 1/2 pound TC burger with an ice cold HPA beer on tap
