Nick's Barbecue - Alsip

Love this place. Great food. Monthly specials. Friendly staff. Parking: Adequate parking Wheelchair accessibility: Small ramp, easy enough to navigate. Chairs well spaced. Not sure about restrooms

Stopped for a solid rack of pork ribs for $26, service like mama/big sister, which is nice. Solid rack, and that's good.

Drive thru service uncaringly slow. Keep in mind I’m the only one in line, ordering 1 food item, they will still ask to pull up and wait 15 min. I’d understand if there was a line or parking lot had cars. Food items seem to be hit or miss. I DID like the ribs. I don’t agree with price given the extremely small styrofoam cups as “sides”. I couldn’t believe the mashed potatoes beans were 2 bites worth… but tasted good. The curly fries they gave me looked bottom of barrel cold pitiful..didn’t care enough to turn around. The corn on cob/mac cheese I ordered as extras were unbelievably terrible I can’t believe they serviced me it. Disappointed because that’s very hard to mess up so that tells me cook doesn’t care. The cod sandwich special on Friday’s forget it. McDonald’s fish filet taste far better and less . Buffalo chicken wrap great. Coleslaw excellent. Place is a flip of the coin. I’m willing to go a couple more times only because the ribs were acceptable. If another unpleasant experience I’d say place isn’t worth it for me, the alsip location could be so popular if those things were fixed. Kinda feels like getting robbed eating there so far. Prices could be fine if the food service matched.

Ordered a slab of barbecue ribs which were on special on Tuesday picked it up and took it home and ate half the slab delicious

I’ve been a customer for over 20 years and in the past year the service has declined. I’ve been shorted sauces I’ve paid for and now you no longer get extra sauces for ribs or even napkins or utensils. Prices go up, but better have some sweet baby rays and your own eating and clean up supplies handy. Ribs have been dry, gyros cold or lacking the ingredients ordered. Very disappointed. Not sure why the restaurant is changing their service. But I will definitely rethink where I spend my hard earned money for a meal out.
