Brick House Barbeque - Jacksonville (IL)

4 /5 Paul J Przepiorka: Pretty neat little place on the square. The food is pretty standard, not much to expect out of a bar establishment, but the menu does have some decent gems. I especially enjoyed the New York ribeye, w/ a loaded backed potato and coleslaw on the side a few months back. Not a big fan of drinking, but they do have a pool table in there as well, which is nice. If you dont want to deal with the high school / college crowds or the noisy speakers of the other place on the square, then this is definitely a nice little restaurant/bar to check out.

5 /5 Mark Towers: Great bar and restaurant we just ate at the high top and watched the SU game. We tried a few of the appetizers to share at the table. The brussel sprouts were maybe the best Ive ever had. I ordered a side for dinner instead of the chips. The brisket sandwich was solid. The mac and cheese must have been great it didnt make it around the table. Maybe onions in it?

5 /5 Timothy Cole: The brisket was some of the best Ive had. If you want an "off the beaten path" local joint feel, this place is nice. They were clearly caught off guard by having several families arrive at once, causing quite a wait. The food was totally worth the wait. Im not big on eating in a bar, and that is kinda the feel of this place, but I had a nice conversation over a really good meal. If I remember right, the price was also very reasonable.

3 /5 j s: Not bad place. I had the seafood basket. Clams were good, the breaded shrimp was over freid, the cod breading was good but couldnt taste the cod. Couldnt get my drink till I asked then never was able to get a refill. But, the others I was with had a good experience.

1 /5 Ty Brant: Came in with my wife and 2 kids and sat our selfs, no one came. But what made us mad enough to leave was the fact that they wasnt busy, seen us, and 2 other people came in and sat them selfs as well and got instant service and drinks brought out so we got up amd left. Otw out i said hey thanks for the service and the lady at the bar said oh well I was just about to go over there i said no thanks and she said see you later and laughed in our faces
