If you need your #BBQ fix in #Chicago check out Chicago Q in the Gold Coast. This fixture is close to many of Chicago’s entertainment areas so makes for a perfect pre show or after show dinner/ lunch spot. They carry fries green tomatoes as well as BBQ flight trios. The only downside is that pickles and chips that were a free appetizer years ago, now cost something .

⭐️🍽️ GOLD COAST HIDDEN GEM 🍽️⭐️ Have you been to @chicagoqbbq yet?! I had no idea that such a cute southern-style restaurant was so close to downtown - the second you walk in, it truly feels like you’ve been transported to Savannah! 💛

Great bbq in the city!

Such good burgers and chicken sandwiches

#Chicago Q is a classy #bbq in Gold Coast. Spectacular service! While their prices have gone up, quality for the portions are fair. Because it can get messy, they provide hot towels at the end of your meal! 🍅 Love the fried green tomatoes with housemade dill ranch. 🍖 If it’s your first time, get the BBQ Sampler that includes chopped #brisket, pulled #pork, & pulled #chicken. 🥔 Buttermilk mashed potatoes a bit underwhelming.

Chicago Q is a huge space with a welcoming atmosphere and even better flavors. If you’re looking for your next home style BBQ, look no further. Their complementary pickles are enough to come back alone! 10/10, all homemade in house sauces, fresh cuts of meat, and delicious sides.
