“Absolutely amazing! The 1/2 Greek Chicken at The Gyros Factory is one of the best meals I’ve had in Des Plaines. Perfectly seasoned, cooked on the bone, and unbelievably tender. The rice pilaf and Greek potatoes complete the plate beautifully. A must-try!“

“Don’t miss out! Excellent food at fair pricing with exceptional catering options. Gus, the owner, is very friendly and ensures the best experience by delivering fresh food with guarantee if you’re not happy he’ll make it right. My family and I have been customers for almost 30 years and the quality has stayed the same even if the economy hasn’t. Support local small business and find them all summer long at local outdoor events. Highly recommend for your catering needs as they provide not just good food, but excellent service as well.“

“I had the pleasure of checking out the brand-new Popeyes location in Des Plaines, and let me tell you, it’s a game-changer for late-night cravings and top-notch service. From the moment I walked in, the staff impressed me in every aspect – friendly, efficient, and genuinely welcoming. They truly bring back that old-school hospitality and service that’s been missing from the industry lately.
What sets this spot apart? It’s open until 4 AM, perfect for those after-hours munchies, and conveniently located right next to a Tesla charging station, making it an ideal pit stop for EV drivers. The food was spot-on – crispy, flavorful chicken just like Popeyes is known for, served up hot and fresh without any wait time issues despite the opening buzz.
A huge shoutout to the entire team for making my visit memorable and hassle-free. You’ve got a winner here, Popeyes – I’ll definitely be back!“

“Omg! I'm a stickler for good service. The young lady working the cash register around 6:30pm on July 1st was AMAZING 😍. She greeted us, took our order with a smile, and chatted with our children about our recent plane ride after bringing us our food. And on top of that, the food was ON POINT - like seriously so good. The restaurant was clean and the music was a vibe. We will definitely visit Raising Cane's again in the future.“

“1st time trying this place in Des Plaines and I must say that the bumper fries, bumper chicago style hotdog, chicken tenders with the honey mustard sauce which was great paired together and the bumper burger was all amazing 😋 👌 Definitely a must try🙌 I also like that it's all Halal meat so it's never frozen always fresh ❤️“

“Cece and the staff here were fantastic. The food was great, service was quick, and it was very clean. My niece spilled her shake and I offered to clean it up myself. Cece came out and helped us immediately and cleaned my niece’s spilled shake for us. I apologized multiple times. Cece was so nice to my niece and I today that I highly recommend coming here. ❤“

“My best friend and I are regulars here so it’s time for me to put MY two cents in about Taco Bell on Oakton. This is HANDS DOWN. THE BEST. TACO BELL on earth- actually the galaxy while we’re at it. This place is the epitome of world peace. If the world was taco bell on oakton, we would have no wars. This taco bell location feels like a warm hug from family on a chilly holiday night. It blesses you with its comforting atmosphere and splendid customer service. Everyone that works here deserves an award. As they ALL make this place shine bright like a diamond - actually like a white bell across a purple background in the night sky. This is my comfort food, this is my home. But ONLY if it is the taco bell on oakton. Thank you, without you i would not be LIVING.“
