About Meat Moot

Founded in 2021, Meat Moot has rapidly expanded to 52 locations across 14 countries. Headquartered in Istanbul, we are a premier halal smoked meat restaurant redefining the fine dining experience through a unique "modern-meets-traditional" philosophy.

Moving beyond traditional pits, we utilize innovative slow-cooking techniques and advanced meat-curing facilities to ensure perfection in every bite. Our kitchen specializes in high-quality, halal-certified cuts, including our signature smoked brisket, tender lamb, and premium beef ribs.

Our Burbank, Illinois location brings this global tradition to Chicago's Southwest Side. We serve the same carefully sourced, 16-hour slow-smoked meats that have made Meat Moot a favorite from Istanbul to Dubai to Houston — right here on Harlem Ave.

The warm industrial design of Meat Moot takes inspiration from traditional Istanbul butcher shops, mixing natural wood, stainless steel, and dark marble for a modern BBQ look. It feels rustic and welcoming, but still premium.

One standout feature is the "meat locker" style wall, finished with walnut wood panels running along the dining room. Soft, quiet music adds comfort, and every detail — big and small — is carefully chosen to deliver an unforgettable dining experience.
