My husband and I stopped at this location yesterday 6/23/25 approximately noon purchased 2 Maxwell polishes for $20.00 when we received the polish the onions were cute huge and barely grilled some were still raw then the inside of the big polish looked not fully cooked I ate half of the polish before realizing I trashed the rest it was the only thing I ate for the entire day because 30-1hr later I felt sick vomiting/ diarrhea I am pregnant so I went to the ER early today I was advices I was given food poisoning so was the other person that ate the polish but they ate their whole Polish so they felt even worse then I YUCK I will never again buy from here the new huge Polish they are using aren’t beef nor the original Maxwell ones

Maxwell Street Beef – Downers Grove: A Must-Try for Italian Beef Lovers
If you’re craving a top-tier Italian beef sandwich, Maxwell Street Beef in Downers Grove is the spot to hit. I stopped by recently and was seriously impressed. The Italian beef was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor—juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. Whether you like it dipped, with sweet peppers, or spicy giardiniera, they do it right.
But the real surprise? Their hand-cut fries. Fresh, hot, and crispy, these aren’t your average fast-food fries. You can tell they’re made with care, and they pair perfectly with the beef.
The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and perfect for a quick, satisfying meal. The service was great, and you can tell they take pride in their food. I’ll definitely be back—this place is a gem for Italian beef lovers!

This has been a childhood spot of mine since Game Pazzo was around. My favorite meal from them is their had breaded chicken nuggets. But none the less they have a very versatile and diverse selection.

The food is outstanding & they serve homemade fries. We have gone there for 20 years & their beefs, Gyro & Hamburgers are all fabulous. I rated atmospher 5 because the owners are friendly & the service is great, but it is like a hot dog stand with counters & stools, not fancy.
Vegetarian options: I've never noticed if this is available or not.
Dietary restrictions: This is really not a place for diets
Parking: Large free parking lot. Very accommodating. We always want our gyros browned on the grill & they do a great job.
Kid-friendliness: I'm sure they would be kid friendly.
Wheelchair accessibility: Never noticed.
