RecommendedThis place has been the same since I was a youth. I remember my dad pulling up to the alley to park and the smell of what they are cooking is incomparable to any other Bbq joint out south. The sauce, the tips, the fries and the hot links got me addicted! RIP to the owner and it’s like he is still back there chopping up the tips ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best BBQ on southside.❤😋🔥
People aways experience food with a memory. Just the smell of Lem's take me back to a 5 year old girl. waiting for my wings & fries soaked in mild sauce with white bread. My mom took me to location on 59th & State.Yum sure don't have this in AZ. Got off the plane last night this was my first stop. Just as I remembered same recipe. The wings are crispy with just enough sauce while the fries are swimming in the sauce with the white bread on top. My son wants to go get more hot links before we leave.
The ribtips are off the chain

I've been eating Lem's all of my life going as far back as the 59th and State Street store. Food is always fresh. It's never a trip home without making my way here. They're the best to do it outside of cooking your own.....
Best BBQ in Chicago! I live in Las Vegas now but always get a gallon on sauce when I’m home for a visit. These Vegas people love it!
