Menu

The restaurant from Chicago offers 88 different dishes and drinks on the menu at an average price of $12.9.

After years of not visiting, we returned to a BBQ restaurant with high hopes, only to be let down by dry ribs and fatty brisket. Despite friendly service and BYOB option, we were disappointed in the food quality. Another reviewer found the brisket tasty but the pulled pork lacking. A negative review highlighted patio issues with bugs and flies. However, there were positive reviews as well, with praises for the brisket, pulled pork, and sandwiches. One customer declared it to be the best BBQ in Chicago, with flavorful meats and delicious sides. Overall, while some reviewers found flaws in certain dishes, many others praised the restaurant for its delicious BBQ offerings and friendly service.

Was Jay P at Smoque BBQ a mag?
The brisket was nice juicy and flavorful. On the other hand the pulled pork was lacking, tasted a little old. Coleslaw and macaroni and cheese were good. The cornbread needed some butter it was really dry. View all feedback.

What Laura A dislikes about Smoque BBQ:
After years of not visiting this BBQ restaurant, we decided to go back with friends. My husband and I shared a full baby back ribs platter, a side order of brisket, slaw, bbq beans and mac cheese. The ribs were dry and the sliced brisket had too much fat and little meat. My husband thought that the ribs were from the day before and had been reheated. The only way to eat them was with lots of bbq sauce. We were disapp... View all feedback.

A very busy place. Good food and atmosphere is electric. Prepare for wait time not only seating but order. Still worth the wait

Sooooo good! We had the brisket and the pulled pork and both meals tasted like heaven (if you’re a fan of grill goods). It’s the kind of place that looks really simple on the outside but is full all the time because there is just amazingly good food. 10/10, recommend
