Used to love coming here when I was younger. Today we were served a tiny portion of canned baked beans and Kraft mac and cheese :'( Super disappointing.

Only reason am doing 1 star is simple ...pulledpork meat is to be filtered before serving as in ..let me explain..don't give people half dollar sized bones in my sandwich..so I told the cook showed him the bone had him take it in a napkin . He then looked at me as if I planted a pork bone in my own sandwich lol..no sorrys came from him or any staff! So I say this eat that pulled pork sandwich with caution ....ps I don't walk around with wet pork bones in my pocket lol

We stopped here for a date night and we were very disappointed with the quality of the food. The rib tips were very fatty. The chicken was dry and flavorless. This was our first and last time stopping here.
The “uncle” was nice enough to refund the money for rib tip meal. That was kind of him.

This was overpriced and terrible!. Who charges $9 for Mac and cheese that it a box of Kraft with you smearing canned cheese around the edge of the Togo cup. The sides for the meals were super tiny and in dipping containers. Pork sandwich was so dry and small that won’t even fill a small woman yet was $11 and came with nothing. Gyro had no flavor. Wasted $80 + for lunch for 3 people for nothing. Oh and the sauce that came with the cheese sticks was some type of salsa. Who puts out food like this and has 4 stars?!

I hope this doesn’t represent Naperville prices and food. Never again will we go here.

WASTE of MONEY!

I can’t comment on atmosphere because I had it delivered. However, I ordered the Rib and Chicken combo with Greek potatoes. The ribs were very hard and tasted old and the chicken was also baked hard! The so called Greek potatoes tasted nothing like Greek potatoes! In fact they were hard and flavorless. I know Greek potatoes and those were not Greek potatoes or was a bad recipe with no spices or lemon in it! It was very bland. What a $38 dollar waste! If you are a foodie like me, I suggest you just keep it moving when considering this place. Never again! I wish I could get my money back!

Good food. Chicken sandwich on the pita is most delicious. The ribs are a must have. Love the crinkle fries. However, the old guy—whom I assume is the owner—means well but he has a tendency to screw up your order. I suspect he is a little hard of hearing. So double check your order before leaving if you order carry out.

Parking: Plenty of free parking.

The food had great presentation and taste. Texas like atmosphere which was awesome. Overall service the guy behind the counter didn’t speak clearly and it was hard to understand him.

Smallest Italian beef you'll find anywhere. The beef isn't all that tender and it's served dry. Had to go back up for my peppers. Only reason I'm giving 3 stars is the Ruben here is amazing. Italian beef sucks

The food here is ridiculously good. Highly recommend the brisket dinner and the macaroni and cheese go with it. The Greek potatoes are very delicious and the only complaint is that the cornbread is too small and sometimes when it gets busy it takes a while to get your food but it's well worth it.

More than 18 dollars for a fast food meal of grilled cheese, coke and fries. In addition they make it hard to access the ketchup, upsized my fries when I didn’t ask or want to pay for that… the prices here are ridiculous. Could have made 10 grilled cheese sandwiches for the price they charged for one. Inflation isn’t an excuse, this is just price gouging.

I bought a fulk slab of beef ribs. I brought them back because they were mostly bones. They refused to exchange or give me. My money back very disappointing. I've been a customer for years. I have never, ever encountered that. Just think who would pay money for ribs that have mostly bones and sauce? Does not make sense.. Is the economy that bad or you have to uh cheat customers... After that.
I just walked out. There was nothing else to be said clearly. They don't have integrity and in business. She just get money for people
