While some found the noise level high, others enjoyed the live music and kid-friendly setting.

The menu didn’t offer many healthy choices and this restaurant was way too loud to have a conversation. I would not return.

Went to Bub City Rosemont for a family outing. The atmosphere was fun and the restaurant is pretty big. The prices were not too bad for the sandwiches. The fried pickles were the best I’ve had. The food over all was pretty good but definitely not the best bbq I’ve ever had. The brisket was a little too fatty for our liking even though I ordered mine lean. Sauce was good but we had to ask for extra - there was no bottle on the table. It can get a little expensive if you order any sides beside what comes with the meal. Getting into the complex on the weekend after Thanksgiving was a bit of a nightmare, so give yourself plenty of time depending on when you go. We had reservations but probably didn’t need them but were seated at a large booth that fit all 6 of us. While we generally enjoyed our meal, I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to go back since there are many good bbq places closer to my house without all the parking hassle. But, if you’re in the area, give it a try and enjoy the decorations and ice skating rink the complex has up during the Christmas season.
