Chicago Q

Score brunch with a delicious down-home BBQ twist at this Downtown destination. Try the sweet potato pancakes smothered in pecan butter and bourbon maple syrup , or the Kobe brisket eggs Benedict (!!). Read more

Best place for substantial, filling, and yummy food for Saturday brunch . The free pickles alone are worth the visit. The photo is a half portion, so sharing is recommended!

This place has a very nice and cozy decor . The food is very good and nicely presented. If you are going in a group I suggest to order different dishes to share. The beer selection is also 👍🏻

Pickles and BBq chips are irresistible, but don't overdo it! Portions are huge, so it's very easy to over order. Try the BBq or Benedict flight for brunch . Crab cakes have huge chunks of crab meat .

Classic sides include cornbread , baked beans & potato salad , while Southern starters of corn dogs , hush puppies & a BBQ flight (American Kobe brisket , pulled pork & pulled chicken ) are also on offer. Read more

The lunch special platter was a steal! This spot lived up to the hype. I was particularly fond of the st. Louis ribs and the pulled pork .

The ribs are easily some of the best I've eaten, and the kobe brisket is the bomb-diggity. But, don't skip the shaved ice mint julep or the braised collard greens-- both are just right.

BBQ chips and sweet pickles to start, a baby greens salad to be healthy, and a full slab ribs to fulfill your stomach. The menu is meat-heavy in big portions , so definitely share, even the q2.

They made a few changes to the menu and I'm very happy with them! Can't go wrong with the classic pulled chicken & Mac and Cheese though!

Amazing food. The Mac and cheese and hush puppies were divine. And cocktails - had one that felt strong enough as three but was a great compliment to meal

@chicagoqBBq Omg, Dan is a great bartender/server. The shrimp and grits r 2 die 4 and the pickles & chips r amazing. It ended with a hot aromatic towel. Thnx!!!

Love everything at this restaurant - includes the food and people. You cannot go wrong with any of their options.

Check out this barbecue joint for Eastern N.C.-style barbecue . Want to act like a true Carolinian? Ask for some slaw with your pork sandwich , but not on the side. Read more

Chicago Q balances its Southern-style BBQ reputation with this sweet and savory brunch that is sure to please all who dine at Chicago Q. Read more

BBQ shrimp n grits ? Yeah, they go awf. Chopped brisket and pulled pork ? Yeah, they go awf. Mac n cheese ? Mmhmm...they go awf too. Great beer selection , friendly staff & great ambiance top it off.

The Pulled Pork sandwich is delectable and "The Q" uses the PERFECT bun . Try it with the South Carolina Mustard sauce ; I couldn't get enough. Is this the best Pulled Pork in Chicago? It might be.

I hope you came hungry! I would recommend the BBQ flight appetizer to get a feel of the different meats. Then I would get the Kobe ribs ... expensive , but the best meat I have ever had!!

Upscale touches include Kobe brisket and a slab of “competition” ribs that goes for about 35 bucks. We prefer the standard spare ribs , which are tender, smoky and sport a slightly sweet rub. Read more

If you want bbq you have to come here. Best bbq in Chicago. Brisket is to die for and the ribs literally fall off the bone

Upscale touches include Kobe brisket and “competition” ribs . Spare ribs (the standard, not the $10-more-expensive “competition” slab), proved tender, with a good dose of smoke and a slightly sweet rub Read more

They have bottomless mimosas here. I WILL be back for brunch . Oh, and the brisket sandwich is amazing but the baby back ribs are life changing.

Best BBQ I've had in Chicago. I enjoy the variety of sauces they provide so you can get exactly what you want.

The Kobe Brisket sandwich is tender and delicious. Service is great but the cornbread is a little grittier and drier than I am accustomed to.

Try the Competition St. Louis slab from our 100 Best list: These ribs take two additional hours of labor because they’re pulled out of the smoker periodically to baste. These bones are killing it.

For an appetizer , definitely try the BBQ flight ; Kobe Brisket , Pulled Pork and Pulled Chicken . And ABSOLUTELY try the Smoked Dry-Rubbed Wings that are smoked for 40 minutes. Best wings I've EVER had.

Burnt ends and the alligator starters are huge - and utterly delicious! The burnt ends practically dissolve!

The eatery offers their signature mac and cheese with various BBQ toppings. Amazing. Read more

Chef Lee Ann Whippen earned plenty of accolades as a pitmaster on the barbecue competition circuit. Now, she serves the same tender smoked meats at this white-washed plantation-style dining room. Read more

The BBQ is all great. The portions are huge. An appetizer and a q2 platter is usually enough for 4 in my experience.

The main event is BBQ — brisket , pulled pork & baby back ribs — plus cornbread , coleslaw or fries (plus house-made sauces). Read more

I've come here twice and have always left underwhelmed. The staff is friendly , great vibe, location and mimosas . The food does leave me a bit underwhelmed, I always think there should be more flavor

Great BBQ in an elegant setting ! Recommend the 1/2 slab with choice of one other meat, and red potato salad or chipotle corn .

If you crave for spare ribs , this should be your favourite address. Half rack is very enough, but go for a full rack if you are really hungry.

Chargrilled oysters are a great app. 3 meat combo best for sharing

St. Louis ribs are a must. This with the cornbread is perfection. Love everything here, all served up with the southern charm ambiance.

All of the meats were good. The brisket , maybe my least favorite. But the mac and cheese - hands down the BEST.

Shrimp & Grits (Southern Grits , Tasso Ham Cream Sauce , Scallions )

So good. Great martinis and great ribs . A friend of mine likes it better than what he gets in Austin.

Ribs and brisket are awesome. Try the Spicy and Vinegar Sauces

Pulled pork , mac n' cheese , and killer bloody mary's are go-to's at this upscale BBQ joint . Can't decide on your smoked meat ? Go for the BBQ Flight .

When attending Q you must start the meal with their amazing corn fitters. Well balanced and savory flavors, with an amazing chipotle dipping sauce that complements the fritters perfectly.

EVERYTHING is amazing. My favorites are the pulled pork & pulled chicken sandwiches & the BBQ Cobb Salad is amazing!!

Love this place. If you like pork , this place is great. One of the best BBQ options in Chicago.

The benedict flight at brunch is amazing and great for people who can't make up their minds. All the meats are present.

Can't go wrong with anything here. I highly recommend the Pimm's Cup for a cocktail or the Bruleed Macaroni and Cheese as a side.

The whiskey list has expanded, flights of 3 available OR try all the whiskey on the list for $75

One of the best bourbon lists in Chicago. Awesome mint juleps . Great food. Fantastic service.

BBQ is the best. The benedict tasting is also pretty good. Portions are enormous!
