Leon’s Chicago’s Best Inc., formerly known as Leon’s BBQ has been a Beloved Family owned barbeque business for over 75 years. Our founder, Leon Sr, opened the first Leon’s BBQ in 1940 on the southside of Chicago. And ever since Leon Sr. opened up that first rib house on 59th Street, Leon’s has been renowned for its mouthwatering slow smoked barbeque dishes. But as our founder always said “It’s in the Sauce! Just ask Denzel and the millions of other customers and generations of families who flock to Leon’s for the authentic experience rooted in tradition and flavor. After years on the Southside of Chicago, Leon’s is now in the South Loop. We welcome the opportunity to serve you and your family.
