We walked in 20 minutes before closing and had very pleasant service and great food. We were welcomed to stay after closing for however long we wanted, and did. BYOB is a plus. I'm glad its a block away from my friend's apartment, cause I'll go back.

I like this Robinsons. I live near by so I go here occasionally. I've always had good food. I ordered a burger and fries a few weeks ago and it was fantastic. For the amount of food they give you, it's a reasonable price. The service is pretty fast and there is good food. What else is there to say? It's a rib joint people, it's not a Rick Bayless restaurant, give them a break.

Home recipe for the bbq sauce. Ribs and fries is the way to go. I get a bottle or two of the sauce to go every time :) finger licking good.

I live very close and go quite often. Last night, I got the BBQ grilled salmon sandwich wiith fries- very tasty. My boyfriend got the pulled pork sandwich with fries and ate every last bite. Our waiter was super friendly and we never had to ask for anything. It is BYOB, they have a nice patio in the back, and carry out is efficient. In terms of BBQ spots in the city, Smoque is amazing but they have long lines and I feel rushed to get out of there. Robinson's is more laid back and almost as tasty.

If thats Chicagos #1, its very sad to say the least!

3 of us went there 12-28-12. We waited about 25min.For the price we paid I expected fresh cooking and DIDNT get it. The ribs were rewarmed,dry and chewy around the edges.The sauce was overwhelmed with VINEGAR. Small portions.very small place,big advertising! I can cook better at home. WONT GO THERE AGAIN!!!

The portion serving size is perfect and the rib meat is tender. The BBQ sauce is nice and tangy. Just come on down here and find out yourself. Really good cooking at Robinson’s No 1 Ribs.
