“It was a fun time I had a wonderful day“

“My first visit here. I did not get to try any food. That's because lunch hours are 12:00 to 3:00 pm, and the kitchen opens back up at 5:00 p.m. I picked up my order today. I called it in. Please make sure when you call in your order to check to see what the specials are and how much they cost. According to the post, the special on Wednesday is a patty melt with fries for $6. When I got there they told me there was no special on patty melts. So I paid the regular price of $10.50 each. It's not a bad price but I was expecting to pay $12 in tax for two. I did go over the post with the cashier to make sure of any other specials going on during the week and of course the other specials were legit but not the one today. So I don't understand why the patty melt was not a special today.

Okay, let's get to the food. The patty melt was delicious. It was seasoned perfectly. The onions were grilled perfectly. The food was nice and hot.

I will come back again but I'm going to double-check to make sure about the prices before I do.

It's a great spot to hang out for lunch and dinner. There are less than 20 items on the menu but they are nicely priced. Also, if you're a drinker there's plenty of that too. And the prices are great.“

“We really enjoy the food plus the prices are very reasniable . We have tried almost everything on the menu and have enjoyed it all. Blake is an excellent bartender and host who makes you feel at home. He has a friendly personality and always has a smile on his face. Megan is a wonderful waitress who is friendly and outgoing. Best of all she makes us feel special because she always remembers what we like best. The owner (Roger) is a great person and always greets us with a big smile. He makes us feel like we are always welcome. We highly recommend BJ's for a nice evening out I'd you are in the Oak Lawn area. joel/Roy“

“I don't know if I'm biased because I grew up eating this chicken, but I love this fried chicken. The place is a bar/liquor store, but they just happen to make the best chicken. And don't forget your fries and hot sauce on the side. They also have deep-fried tacos that are so good.“

“No issues to report!“

“A great place with great food and a great atmosphere. Burgers great, fries great. and the Hangover Tea is great. Just all around great.“

“Mr. B and staff family are amazing and know the regulars. Food is GREAT quality and quantity worth the price. Through all the increases in life the prices stayed about the same. Joe's, is much needed in the community. Sometimes you have to wait because it's BUSY but, it worth the wait. You can call in and place your order. Remember to drop something in the tip jug, they work HARD from 7a-2p.

Parking: There is free street parking around the restaurant and across the street that doesn't belong to Joe's but people often park there.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are more than welcome and there regularly.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are tables where you can remove the chairs and eat with a wheelchair. They will definitely accommodate you.“

“The vibes were really great! The dj was awesome they played a great mix of music that night (Friday). Everybody was having a good time, people were dancing and enjoying themselves. I ordered the tenders dipped in a honey garlic sauce, the smoke burger, and key lime pie. Everything was good, the tenders were juicy and nice sizes, the meat on the burger was seasoned and had great flavor. The key lime pie though! It came with a cherry like reduction (sauce) with walnuts, I wasn't expecting it to taste that good. I ate the whole thing before I tried the food 🤷🏾‍♀️ I'll be back.“

“Food was great very nice inside great party room also!!!“

“Had lunch here, food was pretty good. Location was previously a different "UFO" restaurant, that had since closed and re-opened as the current Mexican place. At the time I was last there, the Google Maps entry for this place hadn't updated yet, so this review was added belatedly.“

“We had a great time great place great atmosphere“

“Food and Service outstanding We are glad we hire you guys for my retirement party“

“Thank you to bartenders Kelly & Abby for giving swift and efficient service throughout this busy and eventful Friday night. And to Emcee Brian / Bryan 🫶🏼 along with the other two, for providing a safe space for us to enjoy ourselves after a long day of work and whatever else we gotta deal with. This was our first visit at Shortstops and we had such a great time here thanks to the good vibes the rest of the clientele & staff provided 💚 will definitely be back here soon to enjoy ourselves again“

“Came for one thing, and that was the egg rolls. Not disappointed at all I got the three for 15. Philly salmon, Philly cheesesteak and Philly cheese chicken out of the three the salmon is my favorite. Yet, all of them are hot, fresh roll and delicious. They are filling and crispy. The Philly steak could use a little bit more cheese, but overall very good. Would definitely recommend. Lastly, the lady that waited on me she was very pleasant and good customer service.“

“very nice atmosphere. friendly staff but the food meh deuces sports bar is way better food“

“We had our son's first birthday here and cannot say enough good things about Gilhooleys. The manager Jim was incredibly helpful and easy to work with. The staff the day of was amazing and friendly. The food (we did the brunch option) was so delicious. We got so many compliments about the food and the space from our guests. It was our first time hosting a party so we were nervous, but Gilhooleys made everything easy for us. We are so grateful for such a wonderful time!“

“My family and I have been eating here for over a decade and the food has always been amazing. The hot wings are their specialty but they also offer a great variety of other foods. The people are always friendly and the food is always prepared on time.“

“This concept offers a dining experience similar to Chipotle, but with an emphasis on authentic Mexican flavors. The pricing is competitive with other similar establishments, and the portion sizes are generous. Their chips and salsa are exceptional, truly a highlight of the meal. I had the cucumber and lime water along with the Sombrero Bowl, both of which were delicious and thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a fresh and flavorful Mexican dining experience.“

“There’s nothing to better start your Saturday morning than a good, hearty breakfast and a great tasting cup of coffee: Bailey’s is that place! I pass this restaurant often, yet I’ve never stopped to dine in, until today! I am so glad that I did! The service was truly top notch: from entry to exit! The servers, hostess, and waitresses were polite, friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. I did not have to ask for refills on my coffee, my waitress kept the Java following. I had a guess with me and we both had a hearty, delicious breakfast! I ordered their Denver Skillet: scrumptious to the very end. Not one flavor, overlap the other: each ingredient came together to make for a delicious meal. I love coffee and typically, they aren’t that good at breakfast restaurants. Not the case at Bailey’s. I was able to drink the coffee without any sugar-in-the-raw or dairy. The coffee served here is just plain on good to the last drop! I sat and watch how staff interfaced with each other and the guest: they were excellent! My guest had crepes, with bacon which she fell in love with! The crepes were served with fresh strawberries and crème. She absolutely enjoyed her meal. We both, continued complimenting the food and service. The restaurant was very clean. It didn’t have that “food smell” that can usually be found in other restaurants. The restroom was clean. I always scope out restrooms because I believe if they’re unsanitary, the food preparation might be as well. The restroom was clean and had a fresh smell to it. The entry of the restaurant reminds you of an old country porch: hospitable and inviting. I hope this restaurant maintains its charm and cleanliness, as well as great service and quality food offerings. I will be returning. I don’t understand the negative reviews I see. I can only speak for my experience which was an excellent one. I walked away highly pleased.“
