You don't eat at WCG, you experience it. The place itself is 2½ walls of tinted windows, and the interior is a little old. The place next door is forever changing hands, and is always vacant, sorta like Bob's Burger's. Inside you'll HOPEFULLY meet an older grouchy guy who does NOT have time for your shit. You get like two or three questions max. Think of that one episode of Seinfeld with the soup. There's a daily special, it's usually something good, except one day of the week where it's something you probably would never eat... Either way it comes with fries, drink, and salad or soup for like $12, and you're not going to finish it. You can try and then hate yourself for it, or you can walk around Buena with REALLY good chicken soup, your choice.
The best part though, by FAR, are the people you will see and the spectacle that can unfold if you eat there beyond midnight, particularly on the weekend. You can witness every type of human walk through that door at any moment, but in the five minutes you sit there to eat.. I PROMISE you one of the most. Let's say.. unique..individuals will walk in there and order a cheeseburger combo meal. It never fails, and it's always life changing..... Do it, get a a GYRO at 2:26 AM.

Best "Burger Joint" on the Northside. Quick service, and excellent food. Busy all the time but U get your food within 5-7 mins. Open flame grill, everything is made to order great place. I have been going here for over 30 years!

If you’re craving classic Chicago food, this place has you covered. Burgers, gyros, hot dogs—you name it, they do it right. The portions are solid, the flavors are on point, and the prices are just right, especially with their daily specials. It’s not fancy, but that’s part of the charm. Expect a crowd during lunch and late at night, but that just means you’re in the right spot.

This is what we call Chicago food! Burgers, gyros, hot dogs - you name it! Best of all, the food is done right. This is not fancy dining, but you’re still getting a deal on the food. This place gets busy around lunch time and in the late evening.

I'm not sure what happened on the day that I went. Recently, I stopped in here to have a chicken taco and some fries. Now, I've frequented this place in the past and have never really had any issues, but for some reason, my visit this past week was the complete opposite! Lol
The chicken taco I had was absolutely disappointing. It tasted like I was eating Styrofoam inside of a corn tortilla shell. The chicken was super dry and had literally no flavor. All of the shredded lettuce on top made it worse and the cheese that they put on it did nothing to help. I even tried putting some of the green sauce on it to see if that would help; it did nothing. I was so disappointed because it felt like I was eating the stuffing to a teddy bear. I meant to take a picture of the taco, but I tossed it so fast I forgot. I won't let this be the last time that I go though Lol so we will see what happens the next time

I called to inform them I am missing an order and they automatically deny it was their fault and point the finger to uber when the driver gave me everything except one item. These people are ridiculous and this is the last time I will order here.

My chickhen pita didn't have what I requested.Some of my meat was overly cooked,it wasn't a bad taste besides the chicken pieces that were crispy like a chip.I also brought the side salad.They used the cheapest lettuce,with wild onions and a huge tomato sitting on top.Are you guys that cheap you couldn't add cucumbers. Just not worth the deliver price.

I have been going there more than 20 years and the food is very good and the service is quick, the workers there are very friendly , my favorite sandwich is chicken on pita. Finally the price is reasonable.
