  Kenny's use to be the place I go for ribs and hot links but they just aren't as good as the smell any more!
  
  My rib tips were hard and I couldn't eat my fries because they were soaked in the sauce!
  
  The hot links were okay but if you remember what they use to be you will know the quality wasn't the same!
  
  They had some other food that they were trying to get people to sample but no one including myself wanted to sample that dry and old looking food at least while I was there!
  
  They have raised the price and given you less it's sad but I won't be back!

  Sketchy location at night but open late..  I ordered the wrong meal and only liked the hot links.  It was late at night and the tips were barely edible.  I had high hopes that were quickly dashed upon eating..

  We got a large combo(tip and link) and I thought it was a small. Yes, I understand that some have downsized portions due to the economy, but C'mon Kenny if you're going to do that downsize the price too! Enough complaining, just don't get your BBQ fix here.

  I am a long time patron of Kenny's; these ribs are from my childhood.  However, the recent closing of both Chicago Kenny's (87th & Stony and Hyde Park and even Aurora (imagine that)) left me pondering whether I'd ever eat ribs again.  Imagine my astonishment when my husband's work led to the discovery of a Kenny's in the south suburbs.  We ordered for take out a small link and an order of ribs, both with mild sauce.  And unlike at the Aurora location, my European-American ( :) ) husband was not asked if he wants sauce on his fries!  
  
  We returned home, tore open the bag, and proceeded to chow down.  Their ribs are St. Louis and come with the standard bread and little cup of cole slaw.  The ribs and the fries from this location were good (and of course the cole slaw).  But what stands out about Kenny's in general is the sauce, it is excellent.  It is so good, that many of my college afternoons were spent eating fries with sauce (still one of my favorites).  In addition, Kenny's hot links are like the only ones I will eat.  However, at this location, the hot links were not the best as they seemed somewhat reheated.  I will give them another try with the hotlinks.  
  
  Overall, this is a good Kenny's.

  Dude!  Dude!!!  This place is really good.  Exceptionally good.  A normal Kenny's experience through my eyes:
  
  I roll up on Torrence Ave. and start smelling something wonderful.  No, it's not me.  Then I see the smoke pouring out of the top of the building and start drooling (don't judge, I usually have a napkin handy).  I pull into the parking lot, get out of the car and do some sort of celebratory giggle/arm motion/leg kick and walk inside.
  
  I order a full slab of ribs...plus another half...the full, in mild BBQ, the half slab in hot because I like to live dangerously.  Once I receive my order, I scamper home causing any number of traffic accidents due to preoccupation with rib fantasies.
  
  I eat the hot first, enjoying the mix of pleasure and pain.  Then I quickly move on to the full slab to douse the fire.  These things come dripping in sauce, sitting on a bed of fries, with a couple pieces of white bread to mop up the plate, and really good slaw.
  
  I usually wake up on my kitchen table some time in the early am covered in delicious sauce, but that's for another conversation.
  
  I have two words for you: GET SOME.  Two more: RIGHT NOW.
