    Burnt ends
    Teresa H.

    Came here to meet up with friends and once I heard they had burnt ends I knew what I was getting. Came as an appetizer over BBQ chips. A little different than other burnt ends I've had. Other than cutting off the ends of the brisket to get the crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. These were cut into chunks and probably cooked a little bit longer so you had burnt end cubes. Tasty but I've had better. Nice selection of menu items and drinks. Service was good and location in downtown. Glen Ellyn is good.

    Super smash burger, side of fries, side of mac n cheese
    Katie M.

    The "adult mac n cheese" entree was incredible. It was so creamy, cheesy, flavorful, and had a nice subtle crunch from the little breadcrumbs. I would 100% get it again and highly recommend it as an entree or at least as a side. Our service was good, the place was nice and clean, and everyone else in my group also enjoyed their food.

    We went during the Christmas rush, and the poor server was trying her best to keep up! Everything was really festive... They definitely love their Christmas decor. As for the food, it's nothing to write home about. I got one of the salads, and I felt like it didn't have too much flavor. I think my husband liked his tater tots and beef sandwich though!

    Brisket platter
    Vince A.

    This place is a place I often forget about but when I do remember it I remember why I enjoy it. Great beer list. Solid BBQ. Had the brisket last night with coleslaw and bread/butter pickles and sweet potatoes fries. Very good. Service was excellent. Went on. Tuesday night for trivia and had fun.

    The NOBEL HOUSE PRIZE PLATTER.$60
    Natalie H.

    We love this place. Being in downtown Glen Ellyn, food can be a bit pricey. My husband and I discovered a little hack. Get the NOBEL HOUSE PRIZE PLATTER and share it! Honestly, it'll feed a family of 4. I can confirm that it does because we had enough to bring home to our 2 teenagers and they were satisfied. It's 60 dollars, you get a half smoked chicken, smoked turkey (my only complaint was the turkey was a salt bomb, could have been an off night) pulled pork, burnt ends AND brisket! This includes 3 sides and 2 corn muffins. For a healthy sampling of ALL of their delicious meats on a massive platter... You can't beat this deal anywhere. This is the 2nd time we've been there and will probably make this joint as our "go to" for local BBQ.

    Chicken & Biscuit brunch
    Katie L.

    We are STILL dreaming of the weekend brunch we had last month while visiting Glen Ellyn thanks to Nobel House. Service was amazing (my server really understood when I said to keep the unsweet tea coming- glass was never empty, and a fresh lemon each time!) Ordered a side of onion rings for the table, an excellent choice. I got the healthy option and didn't regret it for a second, even that was flavorful and delicious! Loved the music so much I wondered if I had made the playlist myself. Casual and lovely, great location.

    Chicken Smoked Wings
    Kiara A.

    The five stars is for their french toast. Holy moly that french toast was amazing. Do you know that after my husband and I shared a regular order of french toast, I ordered a kids portion at the end just because of how good it was. But everyone enjoyed their food when we went. Husband said the burger was very good and my wings were really tasty too. They have this deep Smokey taste to them which was great. Definitely will be returning, more than likely on the weekend because I think they only open at 4pm during the week.

    Enjoyable atmosphere for everyone. It was interesting to see families, including kids in the sport bar restaurant. The area is very safe and vibrant. The food was good and prices were reasonable. we ordered nachos and it was very loaded and tasty. The drink was also good. They have good choices for draft beers. One of our drink was too spicy for us so we asked and the waiter changed it. The staff were very nice and friendly. It was a little loud but not too loud so we liked it actually.

    Cowboy Reuben (Shaved brisket, house sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, Dijon, burger sauce, rye bread).
    Steff M.

    We had an excellent meal at Nobel House in Glen Ellyn! We both ordered the Cowboy Reuben and it was fantastic. They were very accommodating to my mom's gluten allergy, and made the sandwich on a gluten free bun. The Reuben was very unique, and if I didn't live in Milwaukee, I'd probably be eating it weekly if not more! The service was wonderful, the restaurant was clean and spacious, and it just had a great vibe. We will definitely be back when we are in town!

    My husband and I decided to try this place out and glad we did! We ordered nachos, which aren't pictured. They had pulled pork, cheese, jalapeños, baked beans, cabbage slaw, bbq sauce and sour cream. It was really good and the portion was fair. For our entrées, my husband went with the brisket sandwich with fries and I got the Cuban with a side of Mac n cheese. The brisket was really good. The sauce was not very good. The fries were hot and tasty. I liked my Cuban but didn't care for the mustard they use. The mac n cheese was just average and small. Overall, the prices are okay and the food was pretty good. Our server was really fast but there weren't many people in and we were surprised by that being it was Sunday afternoon.

    Onion Rings
    Kelly D.

    Came here on a Friday night for dinner, the restaurant was packed. They do not take reservation so keep that in mind. We were able to get a table after a few minutes of waiting they also have a bar so you can order drinks for a longer wait. We ordered the wings with a variety of sauces the Alabama white sauce was my personal favorite. We also order a prime rib sandwich and Nashville hot chicken sandwich with onion rings. All the food was very good. The only item I would not recommend was the jalapeño mango margarita which is a go to drink of mine, theirs had really no jalapeño or mango flavor at all. Overall the service was okay. Cost of the meal plus tip including 3% credit card charge was around $100.

The liver soup not my favorite only because it had a liver taste--which if you like, then you'll like it. The saurkraut and purple cabbage the best Ive ever tasted and worth getting. The spetzel so-so, not much flavor. Son liked it though. The bread dumplings ok. More like white bread. The big pork shank that is the prize-it was good but not as stellar as we thought it would be. And we did make sure to order it crispy like it said to and it wasn't. Looked like it was a little browned but even my young son said the fat isn't rendered. I think it would have been a lot better if it had been crispy like in other pictures on here. Disappointed. It's like $35. Not cheap. The beef with sauce (sauerbraten) was good, the sauce great, the beef ok. The special that was going on, the beef roulade. Nobody liked it at all. The stuff just didn't taste good together in it. Overall, it was a good experience. The waitress Rosie was amazing, most of the food was great to awesome. The ambiance was German and cozy. Our favorites: the curry wurst sauce, the saurkraut and red cabbage and the stuffed cabbage rolls.
