What People Are Saying About Hecky's Barbeque

In Short – It's all about the 'cue at this ketchup- and mustard-colored, matchbox-sized corner carryout joint. Some diners go medieval with the slathered turkey drumstick; those who prefer a leaner cut opt for the fall-off-the-bone baby backs or perfectly juicy barbecued chicken. Other menu favorites include fried shrimp served with a side of barbecue sauce, plus corn bread, seasoned fries, crunchy slaw, and sweet potato pie and tapioca-like peach cobbler for dessert.

To Die For Ribs

by christierae

I love the ribs here. Their salads are excellent. Their BBQ sauce is quite excellent. They evoke the very best ribs I've had throughout the years. If I were to choose one ribs place to recommend, this would be it.

Best BBQ in IL!

by goodeats31

I never would imagined I would find a smoked BBQ restaurant I love more than Woody's on Lincoln Ave., but Hecky's comes pretty darn close. Actually they are very different, but oooohhh soooo gooood!

Move Over Garbage

by citychica

I've been living in Evanston for almost two years and I couldn't wait to get a taste of Hecky's World Famous BBQ and sauce. But after recently experiencing eating at this place, I have to say move over garbage and make room for Hecky's food to join you. I ordered the pricey Chicago style rib tips and it was a waste of money. They make better BBQ in a grocery store. There was no smoked or grilled taste what so ever. i wasted $30 in this joint, only to come away very disappointed. The hotlinks tasted dry and terrible, the chicken wings tough, and the rib tips fatty. My advice is avoid this place and try Buffalo Joe's instead. If you like eating overpriced garbage, then you'll love Hecky's.
