Description

Slab South Shore is a neighborhood barbecue favorite on Chicago’s South Side, known for tender rib tips, juicy wings, tangy mixed sauce, fresh-cut fries and hearty sides. Regulars praise friendly service, clean, mural-adorned surroundings and dependable takeout, though online pickup timing and occasional order accuracy can falter. Critics note inconsistent portion sizes, sporadic greasiness and rare overcooked or bland items. Overall, it’s an authentic, sauce-forward BBQ spot loved by locals willing to overlook occasional quality or service hiccups.

As for accessibility, the restaurant is located on the street level, making it easy to access without any stairs.

Pick up order 1/25/2023: I wish I had checked my order before I got home I would have asked for a refund! I received small order, tough, tasteless, burned Tips, Cold Fries All soaked in Sauce with a slice of Bread stuck on top! If you choose to order, please check your order before leaving. Finally, whoever prepared my order, (unless they were visually impaired) they knew and saw all of the above issues with my order! I threw it in the garbage!

As far as I have seen on Chicago's Southside, this is the last of the few remaining good rib joints. The service is great and the workers have pleasant attitudes. It helps that I've never seen the obnoxious a**hole customer but they are out here so who knows. The food, sauce and sides are prepared with great care.Leon's used to be great as did DD&S but we are going back 30 years or more.Thanks for being so incredible. I hope that as you grow the quality stays as high.Marc Crenshaw
