The Tonk

For over 18 years, this rustic Pilsen eatery has served traditional Memphis-style of barbecue cooked over wood and charcoal without gas or electricity. The kitchen slow-roasts dry-rubbed meats like apple-and-oak-smoked brisket and pork, with signature sauces served on the side. Beyond the dining room, visitors find pool tables and live music paired with a crowd that joins in the entertainment.
