Chicken Wings near Glenview

“brilliant. never had zeppole before but it was a great balance of doughy and crispy. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't overwhelmingly sweet, the dousing of powdered sugar not too thick and the texture fairly homogenous, which is a nice moderation after a big meal. salad had a great variety of vegetables and honestly I'd come here just for that. but my favorite part was the pizza. I got mushroom and black olive thin crust pizza. the sauce was lovely, smelled great too. they actually put the mushroom under the cheese, like civilized people, and not on top like the chains do. that way the mushroom juices actually absorb into the sauce and cheese, harmonizing the flavor compounds, instead of evaporating and feeling separated. why order mushroom if you do not love it enough to embrace its essense in abundance? why bother if only to just barely keep grasp on its form as a skeleton? service was great, appropriately timed and nice people.“

“Thanks Saddiq for all your help tonight you are such a wonderful help. 5 stars for you. I really recommend you“

“Diego is the man! This review is specifically for him. Always smiling and kind when I come. Working hard! I wish they could keep this place staffed because it's slow. Managers please read this. You should be working if you can't hire people. Especially during $1 T-Mobile pizza puff deal. Seriously you're going to have 2 people working?? Ownership/management should probably change as this has been an issue for over a year.“

“Good Buffalo chicken strips and onion rings!“

“We went last night for the first time… Great menu options, food was delicious, portions were perfect, staff was really nice. I had the Grilled Salmon, he had the Braised Pork Shoulder…definitely recommend both.“

“$20 bottomless wings on Monday and $10 pizzas for happy hour (5-7 PM). Great deal! Amazing service! Did not get the waiter's name but we loved his positive energy!

Small caveat is that the wing sauces were sauced inconsistently. Some batches were super saucy, others a bit drier. Standout flavors were honey miso and truffle parm.“

“The wings themselves are always cooked just right - crispy skin, juicy inside. And the sauce selection? Forget about it. Lemon Pepper is a classic for a reason, but I'm also a huge fan of Mango Habanero

for that sweet-and-spicy combo“

“Lovely place. Good staff. Yummy food“

“Solid crispy thin crust! Buy by the slice to satisfy a quick craving, or order a whole (small/medium/large) pizza. Pasta sauce and dessert pies are also delicious! The place is no frills, so don't expect fancy silverware. Terrific add to the neighborhood!“

“Stopped here for a quick bite during my road trip and was impressed with the quality of their pizza. One of my favorite slices I tried was the Shawarma pizza. It’s very unique, different and packed with flavor . Def recommend giving them a try.“

“Afeera was very helpful and patient, it’s my first time at Charleys and first time in Illinois and I was happily surprised to see a cheesesteak place inside of a Walmart instead of McDonalds, Charley’s was on my radar coming here and being able to get an old school was definitely a good afternoon meal, thank you 🤙🏼“

“We just had our first order from this new establishment. Everything was just how we like our wings. Also a shout out to the boxing of the wings and tater tops. Cardboard with venting to prevent steaming. They were still hot enuf to drive home and eat. We have a new wing staff. The staff was very helpful too. With smiles“

“Great customer service, they’re very kind & ms Shelly is a sweetheart“

“Amazing dine-in pizza spot. Unique pizzas by the slice means everyone can try something different. Their pulled pork pizza is the best slice I've ever eaten, bar none. Cheese curds are delicious too!“

“First and foremost, the staff is hands down the best! Literally the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered! And I’ve tried a few things on the menu and nothing has been a let down. Usually I regret straying from “the usual” but I never do here. The crab rangoon is the best I’ve ever had, the wings surprised me with how tasty and well cooked they were, the basil chicken egg rolls were bomb (so is the basil chicken over rice), and the Khao Soi is a best seller for a reason!“

“Budacki's is a classic neighborhood stop for fast eats. It boasts a broad menu of comfort food, from Polish dogs Chicago-style to gyros and Korean fare. It's not a large or contemporary space, but around rush hour, you'll find it full of regulars from blue and white collar workers to young families and school kids. If you're visiting, there are other spots that do something similar. But if you're new to the neighborhood, be sure to make the trip, and you'll easily find yourself a regular too.“

“our friend/landlord brought us to you all and it was so good and fresh and juicy and it was the best food I've ever had in a long time! I really recommend this place!!“

“Absolutely incredible. Very very nice staff and guy took our order. Explained everything so clearly and was extra patient while me and my friend decided what we wanted to order. We also came in at a weird time for lunch (2:30pm). Guy was so great. Split everything in our order for us because we wanted to share. Food was absolutely amazing to match the service. 5 stars. Well done.“

“🔥 Highly Recommended! Flame On Peri Peri is hands down one of the best spots for flavorful, juicy peri peri chicken! The spice levels are just right, the portions are generous, and the service is fast and friendly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or dining with family, this place never disappoints. Don’t miss the loaded fries and their signature sauces — 10/10!“

“These were the best chicken tenders I’ve ever had.

EDIT: I have returned to the unforgettable chicken tenders and tried them with a Nashville flavor rub this time. It’s even better. I feel so lucky to live close by 🤗“

“The philly steaks are to die for, ask for extra chess and watch your life change. They also have some really good beer, I don't drink beer often but I did the last time I was here and I have to admit I think I'm a regular now 😂“

“OMG obsessed! The pizza is so delicious. I always thought chicken on pizza was gross until trying the Tikka Chicken one from here. NOW I have changed my mind. It has a good kick btw, loved it. The pizza crust was so yummy! The masala potatoes were so good, they also had a kick.
Upon arriving, I was thrown off because it's a liquor store, I saw the pizza sign but no door, so you enter the liquor store & there it is, in the back on the left. The liquor store is very nice btw
Great friendly service & there is some seating to eat there. I wonder if you can have a beer while eating there? lol
Can't wait to come back and reorder the same thing I got.“

“This is my first time at this restaurant, and I was told it's good. So far, the Chicken Tender Lunch Special I ordered is great.“

“I've been eating at Buff Joe's since 2013, and it has never let me down. The wings are fried to perfection and the sauce is just incredible. Not the fanciest place. You walk in, place order at counter, wait for them to call your order and you pay. Grab a table, and go crazy! I get the medium heat a delightfully vinegary hot sauce smother the PERFECTLY COOKED WINGS! All the wings are perfectly crispy and cooked thru to the bone!!! 100% recommend!“

“Ordered catering for a 40th birthday party and it was excellent! A great value and everyone enjoyed the food! Huge portions of chicken and salad and guests devoured the beef! And of course the pizza never disappoints! Highly recommend! Great service!“

“the food and the atmosphere and experience“

“Assalamualaikum everyone I must say they have best pizza in chicago. Every week I visit here with my friend and order dil khol pepperoni pizza.. The staff is very kind and friendly especially the long beard brother on front desk and the cheff. Now they know me and as a regular customer they make special one for me with extra cheese and bunch of extra pepperonis. And we eat in the parking lot while enjoying weather and fighting for that last piece.. thank you brothers for making us a best pizza and lot of memories too..“

“Birthday pizza party!! Perfect pizza / on time delivery 🍕 📦“

“A true unknown gem of Chicago, this place makes hand down the best fried chicken—you would never guess. The staff is always friendly and the service is always fast, even though they fresh fry each order. Do yourself a favor and try it once and you’ll never visit the McDonald’s right across the street again.“

“While the neighborhood bars are getting worse, this place keeps getting better and better. Fricken love this place and had an amazing time!“

“good food good service go again“

“Love the food and there open late!!“

“My son went to a concert at the Vic Theatre and couldn’t find his car right away. They were so kind and gave them something to drink and a slice of delicious pizza. What a great place.“

“Viet fusion has brought me back to Vietnam. Fresh ingredients you can TASTE! The owner is so wonderful and very friendly! Ordered the FAMOUS bahn mi(viet fusion bahn mi), I kept hearing about and let me say.. this is one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in a long time. Fresh, crispy and delicious. Presentation was amazing as well. Bread was soft and I wanted to order another LOL. Pho here is traditional and I can say the servings are large! Don’t be shy to ask what’s in the soup! Drink menu is also available just have to ask! I will be back! So happy I finally went in to try.“

“If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would! The fried chicken here is absolutely phenomenal—crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, with seasoning that hits all the right notes. You can tell it’s made fresh, and the flavor is perfectly balanced without being too greasy.

The sides are just as impressive—[mention a side like “the mac and cheese is creamy and comforting” or “the coleslaw is fresh and tangy”], making every bite feel like home. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality.

The staff here are friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting—perfect for a casual meal with friends, family, or even by yourself when you’re craving something delicious.

I’ve had fried chicken from plenty of places, but this spot easily ranks at the top. Highly recommend to anyone who loves comfort food done right!“
