Great food

10/10 charr dogs. The daily dog special is $11 and you 2 hot dogs and medium fry and a drink. No better deal out there.

This is the best. We order from little island almost every other week and are never disappointed. Prices can't be beat as well!Straight forward service that delivers everyday they are open. Great local spot to stop in for literally anything.

Yal trippin with these reviews. That worker is both cook and cashier. He took my payment and touched cheese with the same payment hands. The shrimp were tasteless.

Been a Chicago hot dog eater for 65 years, since 1958. I've been to them all. Used to be you couldn't go 1/2 mile in any direction in the city without hitting a good hot dog stand. This is a throw-back to the old days. Great dog and outstanding fries. I mean OUTSTANDING. Dog is great by any standard, even against Lerner's and the Ranch. Haven't tried anything else on the menu because there is nothing, I mean NOTHING better than a 'meal on a bun'. Only thing missing is NEDLOG orange drink.

Used to hang out at this place when I was a kid so now I was an adult I still return back and think about the times hanging out there food is still good and you can find some good dealsKid-friendliness: Just like when I was in the school there is a pinball machine in four kids to play You can sit inside or outside either or the Dynamics experience is still the same

I've been coming here the past 10 years every week in the summer because of how incredibly good and CONSISTENT this guy is. mind you it is a single dude who takes the orders, makes the food and everything and yet he still only closes it once a week. genuinely the best fries and fish sandwich i've ever had, no place comes even close. he's a beast and can make some of the best burgers and sandwiches in the area no doubt!!!

I ordered takeout randomly at my office job and figured I would try this place out. I was not disappointed one bit. The small order of fries is totally worth the price. I was shocked at how many fries I had. The 1/3 American Cheeseburger was just perfect. If I lived in the area I feel like I would come here a lot. The parking confused me because I'm from the suburbs, but it was completely doable and fine. Will definitely order again.

There is literally no appeal to the place. The restaurant is really small, the service was bad, and the burger I ordered was burnt to a crisp. I wouldn’t even bring my worse enemy to this dump, highly don’t recommend.
