    You can’t hit wrong with then the patty melt and barbecue bacon cheeseburger. Both sandwiches are absolutely delicious and the french fries are the best I have ever had. Large portions and decent pricing for what you get. Restaurant is always clean and the staff if extremely friendly and helpful. A must have when you are looking for a fast, well priced meal delicious sandwich!!!

    The chef that prepared and cooked my food at this The Patio location deserves a huge raise. I got the Cajun Chicken Jambalaya Skewers. It comes with a bed of Mexican-style rice with Andouille sausage and shrimp mixed in. On top is a skewer with four large pieces of chicken, each with a giant grilled pepper and soaked in a Cajun sauce. The meal is served with four pita chips, one for each of the skewers. I can’t even begin to describe how tender the chicken was and how delectable and savory the sauce was. You will have to try this option on the menu for yourself in order to understand it’s deliciousness. Please try this meal. You will not be disappointed (and I want them to keep it on the menu so I can get it again). Props to the chef and the service. The food was out this time in about 10-15 minutes and I got it served with a side of Mac n Cheese. Wow… blown away. I think I might just explode.

    Been here many times over the years, the food is consistently good and the quantity is high. I’ve tried the ribs, Grecian chicken, chicken kabobs and more. Everything I’ve ever had here has been very very good. This time around, as everything prices have gone up. Two ppl for lunch was $70. Things are expensive everywhere these days. It’s hard to believe as long as they’ve been around, the quality of the food is still high and quantity has not gone done.

    The PATIO is a well known fast food restaurant establishment located in the Orland Park, IL area on 159th Street between LaGrange Rd & Harlem Ave. The restaurant is very well famous for its barbecued food. The pulled pork sandwich on a bun is not only hearty but lip smackin good til the last bite. They offer lots of varied sandwiches, burgers, ribs & other great bites at a reasonable price point. There are food choices available for every member of the family! The PATIO has a cult following & good thing ..there are other locations to visit. Last time I was at the Orland Park location the restaurant was clean & spacious reminiscent of a cafeteria with plenty of seating. I believe you will not be disappointed in stopping by for lunch or dinner. It has been around for many,many years with good reason.

    When the hotel desk clerk said: "Everybody goes to' The Patio' to eat." I imagined a really small barbecue place that had maybe five people working there, this place ....just blew my expectations away in every way possible! Don't miss this place if you find yourself in the Area, go check it out.

    So first off. The ribs are great, BUT I got the lamb chop special and it was not. There were four chops and two were very well done to the point of being tough and a trial to eat. The other two were okay and just slightly too well done. The sides were decent and the kids really liked the mac and cheese.

    Their food is delicious and they have food for pretty much all the food moods someone might find themselves in. The service is friendly, they get the food out to you quickly, and they keep the place very clean. The restaurant has lots of seating and the place has a very open, cool vibe. I've never had anything here I haven't like. Enjoy!

    Usually the food is great. I often get the tacos or the 1/2 chicken. I was a disappointed today. The turkey tacos which I've had many of times was dry and cold. I do live nearby. I know with tacos it can be hard to keep hot when you add-on those cold toppings. But it was almost as if it the meat was overcooked and had been sitting. Almost went back to complain but I was so hungry after a long day of work just decided to eat it anyway.

    I was discouraged to come based on previous reviews however, it's just like gossip. You have to experience it for yourself. My experience in Orland was stellar. The service was great, the food was epic, the friendliness was above board. I don't know what happened to those people who gave bad reviews but I can only attribute to them having a bad day because it's no way a bad restaurant can be so amazing in such a short period of time. This is a 5 star restaurant and experience. Don't cheat yourself out a wonderful dining experience

    Great BBQ!! I eat at all of the southwest side Patio restaurants. My kids and their families eat here. I use their BBQ sauce at home. Their "system" works so well, even during busy times, tables are clean and ready, food is hot, or cold, depending on your order. Cafeteria style... so they take a hit for service, and a hit for atmosphere. Although, I don't know what I would change!!

    Well this was the go to spot that never disappointed until now. The quality of food is very poor. Fish tacos use to be some of the best around but now they are simply AWFUL!!!🤮🤮 The same for the submarine sandwich. Also the portions have decreased tremendously and the prices are extremely high. My family and friends who were also regular customers feel the same. We will not patronize the patio any longer due to the poor quality of food and high prices.😔😔

    Food was great. Had the half rack ribs and brisket. Meat was cooked right and not fatty. The standard sauce is a little sweet. On the table is a spicy sauce, it was pretty good, but not too spicy. Enjoyed the bake potato and coleslaw. Ordering/register service seemed impatient, even after telling her it was my first time. Service at the table, she was sweet but she didn't speak English well and had trouble telling me where to fill my drink cup. Place was nice, clean, well decorated. Seemed beer and wine was available, but no spirits.

    Decent place, decent food. Not to shabby on the price. The place is always busy so there is a little wait. But that's to be expected. The place has alot of seating if you dine in. Even has a little bar. Soup is good, steak sandwich is good. Some really like the ribs. Lots to choose from on the menu

    I like the idea of having real tees inside,they serve it hot and fast.the crew is 🙂 but the food is a little bit pricey✌️✌️

  • 5/5 Beverly B. 10 months ago on Google
    Ordered takeout on line. The full slab rubbed ribs were absolutely 💯 delicious. The waffle sweet potatoes fries and corn cob were great additions as side dishes. Also ordered a hamburger and chicken tenders for the kiddos and they were very pleased. Definitely will visit again.

    It’s supposed to be a pulled turkey sandwich, and while it tastes good, it’s impossible to eat in the current state with the huge chunks. Feels like it was just thrown together.

  • 5/5 PlainOlBill 9 months ago on Google
    Very nice place that my wife's friend Vicky invited us to so they could catch up. The ladies split the Monterey chicken sandwich which they've always had, and really really like. I had the brisket sandwich which was very delicious and I would encourage you to order.

    First time here and I will be back! The food was delicious and reasonably priced. For it not to be a table service place I felt very accommodated. I like the order, pay then sit concept. Ribs, salad and even the chili was great and served HOT! I will be back

    Customer service at the counter,polite allowing us viewing of the menu without a hurry to get served. Entrees arrived timely manner with quality questions if more condiments were needed. Absolutely grand experience to dine for ribs with my request for bit of 'char'.Orland area excellent location with much for parking and well maintained grass. Totally beautiful worthy to dine .

    Been going here since their original location in Tinley Park. Patio has always a favorite. This visit I had the ribs and pulled pork combo. Loved every minute of it. Ribs are tender, pulled pork was also extremely tender. My husband had ribs and brisket, and I'm definitely getting some brisket as well next time. We both had the cheddar broccoli soup, but the cream of chicken rice is also a favorite. If you like barbecue, definitely a place to go!

    I started with the cajun shrimp, which was by far the best thing I had this time. The seasoning was great, the shrimp was fresh, and the cocktail sauce had an interesting spice to it that was nice. The garlic mashed potatoes didn't give me garlic flavoring. The loaded Mac and cheese was more cheese sauce than baked, which made it watery. The cajun chicken kabob was ok. The sauce was more sweet than spicy. The jambalaya rice was mushy.

    First time me and my wife tried this place.. let me tell you it was 🔥 we got The Greek pita and it was so scrumptious! And the service was super fast! We waited for about a minute! Would definitely recommend this place! BBQ is good too! Price was reasonable.

    I am so disappointed in the manager Dean at this location. I purchased an Italian beef with cheese and sweet peppers to go. I was 3/4 done eating the sandwich I felt a long stand of hair in my mouth and I pull it immediately out and threw the remaining sandwich away. I called thr restaurant and spoke with the manager name Dean. I explained to him what happened. He said that he would refund me for the sandwich. Of course, I was upset and I asked about food handler requirements. He then said his workers doesn't have long hair. He then told me that he’s been in the restaurant business for 24 years and I didn’t have to tell him how to do his job and the hair was probably my hair. I told him that I’m bald because of scalp conditions. He then apologize. After a few choice words from the two of us, he then hung up on me. I felt like that he crossed the line. I’ve had hair problems for years. My profile pic is at least 15 years old. Even the case, wealthier I have hair or not , it wasn’t his place to suggest it was my hair. Not everybody is trying to get a free meal. On the next day, I made it my mission to make a trip back Patio without minus my army hat. I spoke with another manager Thomas. He apologized for Deans behavior. In addition, I said that I would contact corporate as well for his rude comments as well as the problem with the long strand of hair in my food. I would have given them a 0 but there’s no option.

    Very nice restaurant . When you walk in it's a little different than most ,though. You walk up to a counter to order your food and pay. You're given a number to display at your table(that you pick out). Service is fast and courteous. The food I had was "outstanding"! I don't ever make comments like that about restaurant food. Casual atmosphere and attire. We stayed for about 2hrs after food was served. Another thing I don't do is hang out in restaurants after meal is over, but here we did.. I'm from ST. LOUIS . I sure wish we had one there.

    If you need to go for a quick lunch or dinner I really recommend The Patio - Orland Park. Very nice and spacious place with planted trees inside. And very important not pricey at all. This time I ordered regular chicken breast salad and soup of the day. But this restaurant is famous for their ribs. Also very quick service. Clean bathroom. I will be back for sure. Highly recommend this place…4 stars

    Food is still decent, but with the recent price increases the value is not there now in my opinion. Some of the price increases were over 20%. Took those pictures at noon on a Sunday. In the past, the place would be pretty full at this time. I counted less than 10 tables in total. I guess people also think the value is not there too.

    So much room to sit! Also outside seating. Easy ordering process. Food is brought out to your table! The chili with cheese & onions is very tasty!! Very good coleslaw also!!
