I suggest getting the brisket with rice bowl it's super seasoned and tasty and I also got the Mac and cheese it was also good 10/10 food.

If you're looking for a good halal BBQ, this is the place. Their rotisserie chicken is hands down the juiciest and most tender I've had. The service was also on point,the owner really cared and came out a few times to check on us. The brisket was okay, I've had better, but the chicken was definitely the highlight. Finally, a solid zabiha option in the western suburbs. read more

Ambiance had potential. I love the option for communal style or group style dining. The place could use some music and lighting to set an ambiance. The place had an overall good vibe. Kids everywhere! The staff is incredibly helpful and the hospitality is felt. The team working tonight were working. Things felt disjointed but I've run resturant ops, I get it, things happen. The people working were very nice, honest and hospitable, for me that's what counts. Recognition, awknolegement and recovery. Its Monday night and there arent many options open on Mondays. This place is definitely going to be busy so be patient, its worth the wait. Good for them too, its a golden opportunity to corner the Monday market around here. The food. WOW. The food is incredible. Season, flavor but without over doing it. The items are simple and absolutely blow my mind, the ingredients speak for themselves. I cannot wait to try everything! read more

Came here with friends. I ordered the chicken sandwich and my husband ordered the brisket sandwich combo with fries and a drink. The sandwiches are large. I only ate half my chicken sandwich. The fries were very well seasoned. My husband enjoyed the brisket sandwich but enjoyed our friends stand alone brisket even more. My Mom had the chicken bowl which she really enjoyed. They were making the Mac and cheese but gave our friends a salad and rice with their meals. I loved that they did that and didn't keep them waiting for just the Mac and cheese. The service was great and the food was delivered fast. Also, the owner/chef came out to check on us and we told him everything was great and we would be back. Great customer service and dining experience!! read more

Passing thru this small plaza in daily basis. This was a diner then seafood boil place. Happy to see a new modern Halal place with fresh food and nice services. Ordered chicken salad, brisket sandwich, and roasted chicken. Roasted chicken was really good. Chicken salad was decent. Sandwich was really delicious with nicely toasted sesame bread. It is ordering at the counter then serving at the table. Then need to take the plates and utensils to the collection station. Really liked the internal decoration and bench type tables. They checked with us to make sure that everything was good with us. read more

Charred Fork - Halal Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

The parking lot was huge, plenty of spaces. The restaurant was well lit and clean. You order and pay at the register, they bring your food to your table. I ordered the brisket sandwich combo meal. It came with a drink (free refills). The sandwich was bigger than I anticipated. The sandwich overall was very tasty especially with that charred sauce. The brisket could have been a bit more tender. I want to clarify that the brisket was not tough, it was a little chewy. The brisket rice bowl is also bigger than it looks. The flavored rice at the bottom was delicious. I recommend trying the mint lemonade, it reminded me of something we got in Malaysia. Make sure you have room for dessert. We got the lemon raspberry drops. It had a good balance of sweet and salty. Customer service was very friendly. Overall, it's about a 4.5 out of 5 for me. read more

Charred Fork - Seating. - Halal Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

Amazing service. The cashier/server is super nice and helpful. Everything was clean as always. The brisket sandwich was still super good! The wings didn't do much for me and I feel like the sauces changed and got a bit more bland than they were last time I was here. Overall I will be back to see if we can get this back to a 5 stars. Next will be the pizza... read more

I really wanted to like this place more, because they pulled off the hard part well. The brisket was the correct texture and the flavor was good. The desserts were also really good as were the cocktails and refreshers. However this location is a very hard place to be successful, and unless you're putting out outstanding BBQ, it's not going to succeed. I very much want them to succeed. An easy way for them to do that is to improve their sides. The Macaroni and cheese was meh. Additionally, many of the sides you would expect to see at a BBQ place were absent from the menu. I was also concerned that while the place was not busy, 2-3 tables sat on a Saturday night, service was slow. I hope they take this for the constructive criticism that it is. I will definitely give them another chance in a few weeks to try their pizza and chicken. read more

A very quaint, well decorated restaurant. Staff were very friendly. The TV menu board was easy to read except the moving pictures and daily specials section was scrolling so fast you couldn't even read anything. We had to keep watching the board for a while to be able to read it. Not a deal killer, just something they should correct. Otherwise the interior is very clean. Food was delicious. Huge portion for the charred brisket sandwich. The meat was tender and flavorful. The onions perfectly grilled and the sauce was the perfect compliment. I wish I had a few more fries but that's because I'm greedy. The bun. The bun was soft and fresh. Holy cow it was good. So why 4 stars? The price. Yikes. It was more expensive than 5 guys. I was honestly was planning on giving 3 stars it's so expensive but it was DAAAMMMNNN good. I'm not sure I would go back all the time due to the price but this would be a nice treat every so often. read more

Charred Fork - Charred Brisket & fries - Halal Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

Stopped here for dinner last weekend and the sandwiches were great. We got the chicken and the brisket sandwich - and while the sesame bun was a tad larger, it was delicious and it tasted like a bagel. The sandwich combo of the grilled onions, meat, cheese and sauces were delicious and we would recommend both dishes again. I got a side order of fries, and they were good - had a bit of a spice rub on them. Drink-wise - it's not your normal coke/pepsi - just the generic so I would stick with water. read more

We were fortunate to try out Charred Fork during its soft opening. It's located in the spot where Crab & Spice used to be. The parking lot is pretty big, so no issues there. The interior of Charred Fork is pretty nice with a farm feel. There was a large family when we went for dinner, so it was a bit loud with all the kids. The artwork is kind of cheesy, but it's fine. The tables are also farmhouse style and have bench seating. There is also some bar seating, but no alcohol; just mocktails and milkshakes. This is a halal restaurant. You order at the front counter, and they will give you a number to bring to your table. You get your own plates, napkins, and utensils. One thing I love is that they have a couple of sinks for handwashing right in the dining area, which is super convenient. We ordered a 1/2 brisket meal, which included a small salad, rice, and fries. We were also able to select two sauces, so we got charred sauce and fork sauce. In addition, we ordered a chicken sandwich. The brisket meal was pretty good. The meat was flavorful enough, and the sides were all decent. Both sauces were delicious. The chicken sandwich was okay. I didn't realize it would be dark meat, which I'm not a fan of, but I understand why; white meat would have made the sandwich dry. The bun could have been a little thinner, as well. Overall a nice meal. I'd like to try to rotisserie chicken some time, and perhaps the pizza. Service was excellent and pricing was fair. read more

I was in the mood for halal rotisserie chicken and this place popped up. I decided to try it and it did not disappoint the chicken was super flavorful and juicy the portions were really good. I loved that there was a full non alcoholic bar. The restaurant is very cute and quirky with lots of farm style decor. My only complaint is that the food kinda slid off these wooden slabs to the owners please consider using wooden trays with a lip so the food doesn't spill! read more

Charred Fork - Brisket - Halal Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

We really enjoyed the food. Ordered a full rotisserie chicken. Comes with a salad, rice, and fries. The flavors were very good and not something I had ever tasted before. Bold flavors and a little spice, sauces to go with the food as well. Had a very nice conversation with the owner / chef afterwards. He mentioned all the spices he uses are all homemade and developed personally by him. Definitely have to check this place out. I can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu. read more

First time here, I came to pick up a carry out order. I was impressed by the cleanliness & comforting smell. I ordered the brisket with fries, but the sandwich was nothing like I expected. It was BIG, yet I guess I was expecting a traditional BBQ. Instead, this was a white sauce and there were thick grilled onions on the sandwich as well. I'm not saying it was bad, just different. I also read reviews mentioning 2 sauces, but the only one I got was whatever came on the sandwich. Fries were quite good, long, skinny, and crispy with a somewhat peppery taste. Will probably come back to try their chicken one day, that's about the only other thing, besides the brisket, that they have (both also available in bowls). read more

My wife and I were intrigued by trying this new place solely on the fact it had rotisserie chicken and beef brisket. She was interested in the chicken and I the brisket. We were not disappointed. The chicken was pretty good, nicely seasoned and tender. The brisket was melt in your mouth tender, and also nicely seasoned. In fact both can stand on their own without sauce. But the sauces they offer elevates it to the next level. Especially the Charred sauce and the barbecue sauce. The fries were nice and crisp and had a tasty seasoning. The rice was quite a surprise, it was the most aromatic, well seasoned rice I have ever tasted. However, the food is on the pricey side, but when try it, the price is well justified. The staff is friendly and helpful, and can answer your questions about their food. The place has a simple yet tasteful decor, but very inviting. I highly recommend this place, especially if you want to try something new and different. read more

The food and the service is great. It's also a family owned business. Environment is also really good. Would definitely go again!

Yum!!! My first time. Ordered to go. Got the brisket sandwich. I'm halfway through it and I'm trying to figure out if I want to devour the rest or save it and cherish it later. The bun: Maybe 5" + diameter, charred sesame seeds, perfect! The innards: brisket nice and tender, grilled onions, and the sauce is wonderful! Fries are very unique too, great seasoning! I introduced myself to the man at the counter and we chatted for a while, and he was very kind. Will definitely be back to try the rest! read more

Lots of attention to detail, like the brisket sandwich with a larger bun than a standard burger, and the seasoned salt blend on the fries. Yummy! read more

If you're looking for melt-in-your-mouth brisket and a beautiful place to enjoy it, this spot is an absolute gem! The brisket was perfectly smoked...tender, juicy, and packed with flavor without being overly greasy. You can tell they put real care into the quality of the meat and the seasoning. The sides were equally impressive, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The vibe was trendy yet comfy, the kind of place that's perfect for a night out with friends but still totally welcoming for families. Warm lighting, tasteful décor, and a relaxed atmosphere make it easy to settle in and enjoy your meal. Service was excellent...friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they do. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-tier BBQ with a halal twist. This is the kind of place you'll be telling your friends and family about for weeks! read more

I have been to The Charred Fork three times and each time I have been impressed by the quality of the food and the pleasantness of the staff. Twice they offered us a complimentary and tasty soup which was perfect on an icy day. The brisket sandwich was excellent, as was the spicy mint lemonade. It is nice that they also offer healthier options such as the chicken salad. The ambience is relaxed. Would highly recommend. read more
