“Dukes BBQ is a fantastic joint, and the owner is a good guy. Just ate there for the 1st time today, and the ribs are the best. Great dry rub and sauce. Talked to the owner Duke, and he is a good-hearted person. The train caboose is a cool location, too. Mac and cheese is great!“
“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.“
“10/10 experience! Walking in to this restaurant, you can immediately tell you are going to have a great meal. And a great meal we had! It was our server Joshua's first day on the floor and he was rocking it! He was friendly, attentive, and great at recommending dishes. We took his meal recommendation (the meatloaf!) and LOVED it! Our drinks (an old fashioned and manhattan) were strong with wonderful flavor. And the chocolate bundt cake for dessert did not disappoint! We also had the pleasure of interacting with the manager of the restaurant, who was very kind and welcoming when he found out it was our first time visiting! We will definitely be back soon!“
“I don't really like All You Can Eat, so I prefer places where you order individually, but this is the best barbecue I've ever been to.Six people ate raw meat, anchang, ribs, etc.There is no need to say anything about the quality of this house compared to the price. I think people who live in Chicago are happy people because they have a good barbecue restaurant.“
“Co-worker mentioned to try out the Boss's Signature. We decided to try it out and we are so glad we did!! Two of us had the ribeye and two had the corn beef and cabbage. For dessert we tried out the cheesecake and key lime pie. All the food was absolutely delicious! Was very impressed that the owner Gino came to our table to see how everything was!! You don't find that much these days. Wonderful people, atmosphere, good service and great food.....what more can you ask for. Already discussed that this may be our new go to place. Looking forward to trying out their breakfast menu.“
“We had our wedding at hawthornes and it was such a fun and beautiful experience. Heidi was so attentive to my guest and most importantly my dog. She made sure everything was taken off our hands and helped make sure it was a stress free day. She took such good care of us and made sure we had the chance to eat and drink while we were busy greeting our guest. The food was outstanding and I will definitely come back to host future events. Thank you so much guys! I wish I could give you more stars.“
“Not only is their food and service great, I have to applaud Duke's for helping out a non for profit and allowing us to takeover their back room. It was a perfect sized room and we had plenty of servers taking care of us. Thank you for being a good neighbor! We appreciate it! #stcharleswomensclub“
“We had BBQ on wheels cater my wedding on 9/23/23. The food was absolutely outstanding! Everyone was complimenting it. It was the most hands free easy going catering service I have ever worked with. We did the pig roast with the Oktoberfest menu and holy moly was that food good! They came on time, set everything up, food was out right on time, packed all the leftovers and cleaned up. I had about 110 people there and there was so much food leftover for my guests to take home. Communication was on point and anytime I had a question or needed to change something, they responded right away. I will definitely be using them again when I need catering next!“
“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.“
“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.“
“We ordered the burnt ends with pit beans and corn bread, and the pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato fries. The order was ready for pickup on time. and stayed hot while we drove home, about 20 mins. These meats were sooooo tender (which is high on my for good BBQ) and tasty. My partner liked his sides too, and the sweet potato fries were also pretty good. We both agreed that we want to come back when we're ready for BBQ again. 5 amazing stars for the meats. 4 stars for the sides.“
“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!“

“Visited here 3 times this year for the iftar buffet. It's was a very good experience all 3 times, mashallah. But I was a little disappointed in my 3rd visit. There were no vegetarian options in your buffet menu. I had a person with me who was a vegetarian and could not eat anything except your raita with fried rice. I would like to request the management to please have a couple of vegetarian options available in your buffet daily. Apart from that pleasant atmosphere friendly staff.“
“Texan Barbecue is one of those places that seem to have been there forever. I remember going here over 40 years ago, and have noticed little change. The decor is like a smokehouse from Nashville or Memphis.The food is tasty, and you have various barbecue causes to choose from.We had pulled pork and a Reuben sandwich.Prices are reasonable, and service is good.I have been here several times, and will continue in the future.Conveniently located just north of Algonquin and Main Street.“
“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!!“
“If you haven't tried Venezuelan food, you have to make your way here. Everything from the cachapas and tequenos to the patacones and burgers are awesome ❤️?? the chicha is to die for!!Dietary restrictions: They have a dish for everyone. If you're vegetarian there's plenty of options for you.Kid-friendliness: Everyone is so nice and friendly with kids. Staff is always playing with them and treating them nice!“
“Y'ALL. If you like BBQ. If you like ribs, go to this spot!! Honestly best BBQ place in the burbs. Their sauces be bangin and I really loved the pork ribs. Very yum. Very juice. Also they have a live band on Saturdays and karaoke on Sundays. Show a family owned business some love!! Also you really can't beat these prices, I'll definitely be coming here anytime I'm craving some bbqqqqq“
“It has a vibe of mom and pop restaurant. Service is good but the restaurant can use a bit of face-lift inside. Food tastes good but like the other reviews, some care needs to taken. When we went there were few other guests who seemed to enjoy the food. Our server made sure we got good service.“
