I have eaten at Larry's for as long as it s been open. Food is GREAT, Services is GREAT. Prices and quantities. All GREAT. NO where will you eat a great meal like at Larrys. Even if I dont have time to sit and eat there. I call and place my orders, then pull up to drive window. and I have never had to wait. Thanks Larry and all your wonderful hard work giving us such a great place to eat. Also a thank you to all of the hard working staff. KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB EVERYONE.

Ive read tgese reviews. Businesses have good and bad days too!! Over all the food is good, the waitresses are mostly very young and learning and I the queen of send that crap back has never had to send food back at Larrys. And if tea is so important to you... Take a buck or two get a box and go mix some up. This year alone we have ate there 3 to 4 times a month and always leave with a to go cup!! You must have been rude to your waitress😂😂

Well I have never written a bad review for anyone, and after reviewing the ratings and reviews of others (I noticed were a couple years old) I am amazed. I went there yesterday to pick up lunch for my husband and I, as he is unable to "go out to eat" we use to go there when he was physically able and the food was good. However, the food we were served yesterday was terrible, it cost us nearly thirty dollars for the two of us and we had to throw 90% of it away. I should have taken it back, but as we live out of town decided not to do that, but I will say, we will not be going back again. They should have been ashamed to serve that kind of food. I sincerely hope they get their act together, as it certainly is hard to find a decent place to "eat out" at.

I have been a long-time customer of Larry's. Their food is pretty good and I really don't have any complaints about it. The customer service is appalling though. The owners, who by the way is not Larry anymore, are relatives. They now own it. The all-u-can eat I can understand not getting a to-go box. The take-home cups is ridicules. I've since heard that they are doing them again, but I'm sure you have to ask for them. It won't be volunteered. We went in on a Saturday morning, average business and waited for an hour and our food had still not come. We had to leave for an appointment. Didn't eat. Another day, the waitresses kept ignoring us after we sat down. We waited 15 minutes for them to bring menus. Another family walked in and sat near us, they got menus right away and the waitress took their order, we had still not seen a waitress. They were walking around chatting with customers about local gossip. We left. Since there isn't much choice when it comes to staying in town, we still eat there. But yes, the customer service is awful!!!

I have been a satisfied customer at Larry's Pit BBQ in CHRISTOPHER for several years. This is in response to the first 3 reviews. #1 The people that own Larry's in Christopher, do NOT own the Larry's in Carbondale. Both stores have had SEPERATE owners since the year 2003. Same goes for the Larry's in DuQuoin also. #2 Concerning the " all u can eat catfish ".....the menu CLEARLY says " no to go boxes on re-order's of catfish " I believe it is this way at every other restaurant that I have ever eaten at. #3 Concerning " to go " cups....the menu CLEARLY says " all you can drink - in house only " ...... this means they will be glad to put your LEFT OVER drink in a to go cup..... but they will not re-fill the drink AFTER they put it in the to go cup. That doesn't seem unfair to me. Just thought I would state the facts. I have always had friendly service at Larry's in Christopher. The food is great and there is no way you can beat their prices!

We loved the Larry's we had in Carbondale until it shut down without much of a notice! My son had a football game in Benton so we decided to go and eat in Christopher where the food was wonderful! We always order a bit too much and like to take a bit home for our dog. My son had the all you can eat fish which you are not allowed a to go box for. Why couldn't I have a box for my appetizer fries and meat? I have been in the restaurant business for over 16 years and I am still appalled at how that situation was handled. Work on your customer service and maybe you can keep your last store open. I doubt I will ever make the drive to come back after that!

Been going there for years! Always got our drinks to go in big cups, which no problem, UNTIL they decided you could NOT eat inside the restaurant & order your drinks to go! Must go to drive up & pay extra when a drink comes with your meal. Finally agreed to small to go cups for drinks, but when done eating & requested a refil to take medications, was told no refills must buy another drink. Come on how much does it cost for a glass of ice tea!

LARRY'S BBQ CHRISTOPHER, IL HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT I HAVE SEEN IN THE AREA.
I USED TO EAT THERE ALL OF THE TIME AND GET A TO GO CUP FOR MY TEA. NOW THE MANAGER HAS BANNED TO GO CUPS PERIOD. OF COURSE, IF YOU ARE A CHILD YOU CAN GET A TO GO CUP AND A REFILL-AN ADULT-NO WAY! TOTALLY RIDICULOUS AND EXTREMELY BAD FOR BUSINESS. COME ON LARRY-TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS LAKE CUSTOMERS!! IS A CUP AND A LITTLE EXTRA TEA WORTH LOSING YOUR LONG TIME CUSTOMERS OVER?? IF YOUR HURTING THAT BAD-YOU MIGHT AS WELL SHUT THE DOORS!
