I always get the polish sausage, deep fried with mustard and onions grilled. The service is fast so be ready to order when it's your turn. I just found out they're no longer open 24 hours, now closing around 1-2am. It's usually crowded at any time. Outdoor waiting in any weather.

I had an extremely disappointing experience at Express Grill (1260 S Union). The place is filthy, and the employees show no regard for cleanliness there’s no use of gloves or proper food handling. The fries are bland, under-seasoned, and often cold. The pork chops are consistently undercooked, which is not only unappetizing but also unsafe.

What makes it worse is the unfriendly staff and their outright disregard and disrespect toward the Black community. The atmosphere is unwelcoming and feels careless. I will never return, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who values good food, cleanliness, or respect. I’ll pass especially seeing the order taker handle money then make a polish.

The bone was very large in the pork chop. So they laid it on it's side and the grilled onions were right off the grill very hot. Everything fell inside the bag I burned two fingers slightly and got mustard on my work clothes. I told them about it and they didn't even apologize or offer me a replacement sandwich. I went to Original Jim's next store and I will from now on. There food is better anyways. There lines are usually longer because of that.

Hit up Express Grill on Union Ave around midnight—always a solid 24/7 go-to. I grabbed the classic Maxwell Street Polish with grilled onions & mustard plus a pork chop sandwich, and threw in an order of fries. Sausage was juicy and onions had that perfect char, fries were crispy, and the crew was quick and chill. Classic late-night spot—never disappoints.

This store is on the south end. I visit this one because the wait is non-existent, the servers move quickly. The food is always hot and the drinks are cold.
