In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Naperville; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Illinois are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. The most common schedule is 10 am–10 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (630) 778-9990. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, gematoswoodpitbbq.com.

Place smells like a good time the second you walk in. Loved it all. Would have liked an option to have my BBQ sauce on the side. The sauce was decent, but I like it a little sweeter or no sauce. Coleslaw was ok, seemed home made. Alcohol options were there but not many. They stay open late which is appreciated. Best part of my meal were the beef ribs. Excellent flavor, tender, juicy with a great wood smoke flavor.

What an interesting place. I usually prefer full table service, but the counter service here worked surprisingly well. The staff took the time to explain the menu options clearly and helped make the ordering process easy. Everything we tried was very good, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into the food. My only small complaint was that I did not realize some items would come covered in sauce. If I had known, I probably would have asked for it on the side. Aside from that, I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. One of the coolest parts of the experience was seeing the stacks of wood behind the restaurant that they use to smoke the meat, which really adds to the authenticity and character of the place. Overall, it was a great lunch and a spot I would happily visit again.

Worst food I’ve ever had at a restaurant. Even the sour cream is bland. The baked potato wasn’t even salted. Their bbq sauce is disgusting and they drench all the meat (which is probably precooked and pulled out of a bag) with it before you even get your plate. The customer service was terrible and made us feel like an inconvenience. The food was literally so bad my mom started crying. You’ll get better bbq roasting a weiner over the stove burner.

A local favorite! Staff is pleasant, food is fresh and delicious. A bit pricier than some however, worth it. The environment is welcoming and very clean. I don’t eat pork and the beef ribs are always flavorful, juicy, and plentiful. I love coleslaw and they have the best. If you need to elevate your palate with some tasty affordable grub…check them

Stopped here on a friend's recommendation. The place was busy for lunch and the restaurant smelled delicious. All I wanted was the meat and I was thrilled to find you can buy the pulled BBQ pork by weight. So I purchased a 1/2 pound. It was a little over $11 with tax. I took it home to make my own sandwich with leftovers. It was so good that just sitting here writing about it makes my mouth water. Seating is pretty good, kind of on the size of a fast food restaurant only way better!! I'll definitely be back for more.
