Went with some friends to this restaurant and let me start out with the food. The smoked wings were delicious, and the sauce is sweet and spicy which Is tasty. The service was really great and the waitress was very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is very unique indeed, but in the best way. The women’s restroom doesn’t have a light switch and only turns on when you close the door which would be good if they put a sign. Other than that this is a great place and very affordable for a night out.

This spot is an absolute go-to. Since seeing it on Chicago’s best, we had to try their smoked wings, and boy, did they live up to the hype. I love a spicy sauce, and the Death sauce is no joke. Make sure to dip the Death in the Ranch Has become a go to for food and plenty to drink while you wait for a carryout The 3 bartenders/waitresses are great as well

The bartender was also very nice but we forgot to ask her name. The owners should feel very proud of having you both on their team!!! My family and I can’t wait to go back and try new stuff!!!!

This is going to give you a local “dive” bar, it’s small quaint, not too loud. We went on a Friday night and wrestling was on the big screen. You sit where you want and service is pretty fast. A lot of bar tops and only a few booths. The menu is simple, straight to the point. Got the rib tips, wings , Tijuana hotdog, potato salad, and beans. Overall you can taste a Smokey flavor and there is the red smoke mark, however the seasoning was lacking from the meat. The rib tips were less smoked than the wings but the bbq sauce was amazing I like a heavy vinegar based sauce. The sides were bland. The hot dog was very good and had amazing flavor.

We were there last night with some friends. They ate the wings and the rib tips and they all have diarrhea. Don’t know what’s going on but I think the cooks need to wash their hands. I stuck with the TJ hotdog and im fine..

This place is pretty awesome. And the food is really really good. If you like BBQ and spicy food, this is the place for you.
I had the Tijuana Hot Dog and the peanut butter habanero cookie. So good! Great drinks, too. They play movies here, too. The night we went they were playing a live AC/DC show. It was pretty cool. We were hoping to see a horror movie, but that’s the next night.
Gotta check this place out. It’s a Berwyn gem. BERWYN!?!?

This place is a berwyn gem and the waitstaff here is super so tip your waiters! The last time I stepped in this place I was 18 about to purchase my first cigar the experience was the best being able to purchase tobacco!
Now I was recently informed that they now serve food and have a huge outside patio so we came to check it out since I no longer live around the neighborhood. Me and 3 other guests had the wing plate and shared ribtips let me tell ya that the wings were HOT FRESH WELL SEASONED! The sauces they have about 4 different ones to try I tried them all they were super flavorful the riptips were so delicious mouth watering nice fatty chunk of meat on the bone with the signature bbq sauce was delicious. If your around the area you should try the wings and ribtips, I was unable to check what else they had on the menu but I will be back for the wings and ribtips again they are a hit for me.

Excellent joint! I enjoyed the wings, rib tips, baked beans, and potato salad. The owner, Ronnie, was a great guy! My buddy and I talked with Ronnie about the wrestling business and some of his stories. When I told him that I was visiting and heading to Midway Airport later that evening, he insisted on giving me a bottle of the Ronnie Lottz Route 66 Sauce. Fantastic guy! I highly recommend supporting this local business!

The presentation was enticing, with seven hand-cut wings perfectly seasoned, smoked to perfection, and served with a side of Corn, Garlic Bread. And the squeeze of lime provided that extra zing to tantalize the taste buds. With each bite, I embarked on a flavor journey like no other. The smokiness of the wings paired beautifully with the fiery kick of the habanero sauce, creating a harmonious balance of flavors on my palate. And when dipped in the creamy ranch dressing, it elevated the experience to a whole new level. It was like a perfect dance of flavors, with each component complementing the other flawlessly.
