The Original Maxwell Street offers tasty Polish sausages and home cut fries, with quick and friendly service. The food is praised as better than the original, providing a pleasant surprise. Prices are reasonable, making it an excellent option for a quick bite any time of day or night, especially since they’re open 24 hours. The Maxwell Street Polish with fries has a sausage that boasts the perfect snap, and grilled onions add a nice touch. The fries have been described as crispy, though some find them a little gummy and unsalted. Portions are generous, and the junk food is considered good. The atmosphere is simple and straightforward, focusing on good food rather than fancy décor, but customers mention that the area can feel sketchy, especially at night, with a sense of depression surrounding it. While some prefer to order food and go, the service is fast, and parking is available for at least 10+ cars. It is accessible because customers order outside, making it a go-to for a solid, affordable meal in the area.
