The cashier (young woman) was very unprofessional today. She yelled at me without any reason and was rude. I felt very uncomfortable. This is not acceptable.

The new location is much better than the old one. Inside is clean and updated. Food is delicious. Some of my favorite fries in the city.

I was interested in going here and trying this place out with my fan but as a delivery driver myself I came across a reply from the business owner saying how good delivery workers are pirates and says that people should berate them as they feel……how rude to say something like that about people that help your business and from what I hear the staff is extremely unprofessional and very rude

We were visiting from Texas and my niece researched the place so we walked approximately 25 minutes out of our way to try it. I ordered the Dirty Tacos, Mac and Cheese, Chicken Tenders and French Fries but tried the biscuit and peach cobbler as well. The food was good. We would go back if we had time and happened to be in the area. Would I make a special trip... No. Again, it's good food but in my opinion, not worth a 25 minute walk one way and it was on the pricey side. BTW... You could park behind the building if you drove

This was one of my first stops once getting to Chicago. We arrived and it was empty which was concerning but I wasn't going to let that stop me.

The cashier struggled answering my questions and seemed to be guessing more than giving an accurate answer. I ended up walking away because ever answer was beating around the bush kind of response so I let the person I was with complete the transaction.

The space was decent. They had a fair amount of seating not huge but not tiny. Simple dining room but serves its purpose.

For food we got the house style on a plain biscuit and the sunrise on a jalapeño cheddar biscuit.

The house style def would have been better fit for a brioche bun over the biscuit. But that wasn't a recommendation the cashier could assist with.

The sunrise breakfast sandwich did great on the biscuit. But over all I have 2 big issues. 1) the biscuits even though it looked like they came out a hot box sat on the counter and became cold. 2) the same for the sandwiches themselves. They moved so slow and no urgency that the food was like warm.

I ordered hot sandwiches I expected hot sandwiches. The flavor was good but the template was lacking. I've had hotter sandwiches from delivery orders and considering I ate at the restaurant I'm not sure how they managed it. Besides nothing was good fresh and all of it was being held in hot boxes besides the egg so it was really barely warm to began with then the solid build of the sandwiches finished off eliminating and warmth.

Service was decently quick, portions are quite generous. The Dirty Bird didn't have that much bird (fried chicken) in it disappointingly, and the fried chicken was just average. Good fries though, and definitely filling. Decent place to just drop in, but not worth going out of your way for IMO.

Goodness gracious this place had some of the freshest, most tender chicken I’ve ever had in my life. If you go, get the Carolina Style chicken sandwich that has hot honey and pimento cheese. It blows Chick-Fil-A’s out of the water honestly.

The others in my group got chicken tenders, a chicken sandwich, and some chicken fries. They really liked their food just like I did. The buffalo sauce is also delicious and they generously have bottles of their sauce in the condiment area where seating is so you can load up however much you want.

The establishment & restrooms were clean. Staff were friendly and lively all joking with each other, prices were fair, and this place was on the way to ORD as we were approaching from Downtown Chicago so it was really convenient to eat here then get on the metro. Please come here if you can!

The young black girl that works there was rude and seemed angry. They don't know how to provide genuine service with a smile and hospitality. Not only to the customers but to the food delivery service people. If you can't handle the heat she needs to get out of the kitchen.
