Dang Good Smokehouse -b-que - Evanston

Was really looking forward to some good BBQ. We waited 30 minutes for just menus. Was told there were no clean cups to get our water...waited another 20 minutes for clean cups that never came. Ended up leaving.

I really enjoyed having a nice lunch at this rustic family owed country BBQ restaurant. According to locals they are know for their fried catfish, brisket, and ribs. I can confirm that the fried catfish comes in large portions and is perfectly crispy on the outside and delicate and flaky on the inside, I would definitely order it again. The brisket is also delicious with a sweet and tangy homemade sauce and the mac and cheese is homemade. The staff is very friendly and welcomed me to sit at wherever table or booth I liked. I will definitely be sure to stop by here again even if I’m just passing though. Kid-friendliness: High chairs are available and the atmosphere has lots of things for kids to look at. There is also kid friendly menu option like Mac and cheese and grilled cheese.

The service was kind of slow but the food was amazing

Always slow and incomplete service. Food is exceptional, but takes forever to get it.

Had this place for the first time and WOW! We ordered our meal to go and the portions were huge and the meat was soooo delicious! I am very very impressed with the food. We will continue to make this a regular spot. The inside is so cozy and cute. I kick myself for not coming sooner!
