Best WLM Reviews

The wife and I did the BBQ Bourbon & Beer class/dinner this past Tuesday. Learned a bunch, ate incredible food paired with great bourbon choices and finally found an IPA that I will drink! Greg & Kristina are great hosts and the staff was awesome! Highly recommend the experience. PS. the amount of food that comes home with you makes the best lunch the next day. My coworkers were very jealous. Can’t wait to do another night class!
Came here yesterday for dinner and ordered the brisket, half rack of ribs, cornbread muffin, coleslaw and Mac salad. This was more than enough food for my fiancé and I and everything was delicious! The brisket was tender and juicy and the ribs mostly slipped right off the bone when eating. Definitely a go-to spot for American BBQ for us!
Chicago Culinary Kitchen Finally a BBQ joint that isn't filled with country music. It's a rock all the time ! Nice selection of meats. The brisket is moist nice seasoning in the bark. Sauces are ok, nothing special. But the rib tips didn't need any more they were great. And those PB&J pig wings are fantastic. Totally different and delicious. Only down falls...soda is all off brand stuff..better than Pepsi but not Coke. And it's mostly family style seating, long rows of tables. So if you don't like sitting on the community table it has limited other seats
Certainly! Here’s a concise yet comprehensive review for Chicago Culinary Kitchen in Palatine:
Chicago Culinary Kitchen in Palatine offers an extraordinary BBQ experience that left me thoroughly impressed. From the moment I entered, the enticing aroma of smoked meats set the stage for an unforgettable meal.
The service was outstanding. The staff was not only friendly but also very knowledgeable about the menu. Their passion for BBQ shone through in their recommendations and attentive service.
Smoked Brisket: Incredibly juicy and packed with deep, smoky flavor.
Ribs: Perfectly tender, with a delightful smoky crust.
Pulled Pork: Rich and flavorful, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
The generous portions and high quality of food make it worth every penny. Chicago Culinary Kitchen offers excellent value for top-tier BBQ.Highly recommended!
Been here quite a few times and have loved the food I’ve had, especially the Oklahoma Burger. But yesterday I went a got a Lobster Roll that was on special, quite possibly THE BEST thing I’ve ever eaten! If you see it’s on special next time… GET THERE! Owners are awesome as well
Stopped in for a pulled pork and was blown away. Everything here as in point. Prices were worth every bit and not too expensive. Awesome list of various food and beer. Atmosphere was soo fitting. Suaces were great. I'll be back again very soon.
Paella!!! Paella!!! Paella!!!
CCK made a take-away Paella for our Mother’s Day get together. It MADE the day!!! The mothers didn’t look at their children or grand-children, just at the Paella. Then, we dug in. It was fantastic. Chicken, rib, and sausage, all kinds of delicious veggies, and saffron rice. I felt like I won the food lottery. It was the only topic of conversation. We had/have so much left over. I was calling close and distant relatives to come over and eat. The price was more than fair, they were extremely GENEROUS. And I didn’t even mention the delicious appetizers it came with…
I’d been wanting to get to one of CCK’s paella events for a while and now I HAVE to go. I’m already looking to schedule my next Paella party at home!
Enough words, let the pictures do the talking. Thanks for the love CCK!!!
Cool Vibes! Love rock n roll! Very disappointing. No flavor in any food I ordered. The Brisket looked great but it was covered in Tallow or some sort of grease. The Link was the smallest I’ve ever had at a BBQ restaurant. Halfway through the link I realized they gave me a Texas Link instead of the Jalapeño Cheddar that I paid the extra $2.00 for. I brought it to their attention and the response was “sorry dude” that was it. Pit beans were Luke warm at best and tasted like can pork n beans. The brisket Tamale was big but no flavor. They say Texas BBQ but it didn’t compare to the gas station BBQ in San Benito TX. I had high hopes!
