“Juiciest burger in Illinois! I've never been to Au Cheval, but several people have told me that paradise pups burger tops Cheval. The bun is tasty, patties are fresh, and the sauce is out of this world. Parking is a bit cramped and be prepared to wait but these burgers are WORTH IT!“
“I liked the hamburgers, they are delicious, they cook them right away, the delicious onion rings give you a very delicious dip.Parking: The parking lot is large and if you don't want to eat at the tables you can eat in your car or inside.“
“Flew from Reno to Chicago to see my son play lacrosse in the Milwaukee area. Had to stay in Chicago over night due to problems with our rental car. Happen to stay right next to Frannie"s Beef. So glad we stopped for a Italian beef and sausage combo sandwich. I have been craving a good italian beef sandwich since my last trip to Chicago. This place is an icon. Definitely will be stopping here again.“
“I'm from Atlanta Ga ,and was visiting family and friends and we stopped in for a hotdog ..delicious ? and the fries tastes like McDonald's fries ( although they are not )lol I ate mine and my friends..nice atmosphere, and the gentleman who took our order was great ?“

“I hadn't been here in about 15+ years. Finally came back. Ordered a sweet beef, hot beef, chicken tenders, & fries for $30. Everything was great! Prices are pretty low given the crazy inflation going on right now. Quick service. Will definitely be back“
“Kong Dog is a unique take on a hot dog and very creative. We had the Cheetos and Potatoes half and half dog. Both were fresh, tasted good and had incredible cheese pull from the cheese portion. It is certainly a speciality kind of a place rather than a quick stop in for a "regular" meal however.“
“This is an institution in Skokie! I wish you could give it more stars. The hotdogs are sensational. The burgers are the best around the french fries what dreams are made of their chicken breast sandwiches satisfying any non-meat lovers appetite everything there is excellent. The staff is great the owners great, thank you so much for being here and providing the great food. If you're in Skokie, do not miss this place the chain that begins with P and ends in OS cannot compare.“
“this place is awesome, i have gone her my whole life and the food has never changed in quality, it is amazing. the owner and his wife give amazing service and are always extremely nice. this place overall is perfect and it goes to show that the size of things does not matter but the inside of things does.“
“Try either of the hot dogs. My favorite was the Whoopskidawg. My husband liked the Superdawg better. Great place for trying authentic Chicago food and the history is great and atmosphere was so fun! We tried 2 types of beer also and they were very good with the dogs. Oh and a chocolate malt for dessert was nice to take on a walk by the river behind the restaurant.“
“I've driven past this place so many times and I finally decided to try it out. Only carry-out and delivery right now with the pandemic. I ordered 2 Big Island Classic burgers, 1 smokehouse burger, and another basic burger with one small cheese fry. It took 25-30min for preparation. This seems to be a 2 man operation (dad and maybe his daughter) and it was at prime lunchtime. I didn't realize the description online said the island and smokehouse burgers were on french bread so that was a surprise but not bad. Personally, we weren't the biggest fans of how the burgers were cooked, charred and well-done, but the toppings were great and my sister said the ketchup to mayo ratio on hers was perfect! The cheddar fries are Merkt's cheddar which I now know isn't my favorite but for those that like Merkt's, there is lots of it and covers all the fries. Thanks for lunch, Little Island :-)“
“My Wife and I were blown away at how tasty the food was. Everything was very flavorful and well seasoned. And the prices were great for the portion sizes which were generous. My Fire Burger especially was a good full sized burger. And best of all everything was halal.Everyone working here was very polite and accommodating. They let us go into the back to wash our hands before we ate.The inside seating is very limited since this is a very small place. They did have an outside seating area so in the summer time there is more seating. They had an extensive menu including delicious Mexican food.“
“Fresh cut fries crisped to golden brown to order, wrapped in paper with the simply dressed red hot: yellow mustard, relish, onion, optional sport peppers. Always hits the spot, and friendly fast service.Parking: Depending on the season, the large lot can fill up.“

“H I wanted to try Korean cheese dog for the first time, but the egg toast looked delicious so I half-heartedly gave it a try.The store staff is kind and speaks good Japanese, which is refreshing.The toast itself was delicious, the eggs were fluffy, and there were a variety of sauces to choose from.“
“Incredible customer service! Christine + Anthony were working today and gave me the full red carpet treatment (first time ever eating Mochinuts!). Mochnuts are an incredible novelty we just discovered! (Imagine a chewy donut). Highly recommend pairing food with the refreshers!! So as long as I'm in the area I'm probably going to be a weekly or bi-weekly return customer.“
“I have been meaning to try Dear Franks for some time and I am glad I finally did. I ordered the #5 Italian Sausage combo meal with some sweet peppers and it was delicious. And it came with a ton of fries. I ordered the Dear Franks Famous Cheddar Cheese to go with my fries and I highly recommend that. Yum! My only complaint with it was that it was over $15 for the combo meal (not counting the cheddar cheese) which seemed a bit high to me. My wife ordered the #6 Cheeseburger combo meal and it was also very good. My kids each ordered the hotdogs and reported back that they were tasty. I was kind of surprised how large it was inside. For some reason, I thought it was going to be much smaller. But there was plenty of tables. The staff behind the counter was very friendly and the restaurant seemed clean. Even though we walked, I noticed there was a good amount of parking which is nice.“
“Portillo's in Skokie is a great spot for a delicious and casual Chicago-style dining experience. They're famous for their Italian beef sandwiches, Chicago-style hot dogs, and decadent chocolate cake. The restaurant also boasts a fun 1930s Prohibition-style theme, complete with vintage décor and gingham tablecloths.If you're looking for a taste of Chicago, Portillo's in Skokie is a definite must-try!“
“I have been coming Johnny's Place since they were in Park Ridge. I used to come there for lunch every day or every other day. Always friendly and pleasant atmosphere. The food is very delicious. John puts his heart in all the customers.“
“Curiosity is going to win me over 100% of the time. Such is with this place today.Ate the sweet nacho bat and I was pleasantly surprised. It is quite good.It is on my way to the Jefferson Park blue line for work. I will be coming here more often to try the other flavors and teas/slushies ❤️You guys should check this place out.You won't regret it ?Vegetarian options: They have plant based sausage (which I'm gonna try next)“
“This place is awesome! We had lunch there today and my husband and I both had the Italian beef sandwich and we split fries. It was so yummy!! The food is great, and the sandwiches were huge! The owner could not be more pleasant and we would highly recommend this place!!“
“Came here for another corn dog. My wife and really Luke the original kong dog with half beef and half cheese, so we got 4 of them. The corn dogs are good, I just wished the stick wasn't so long. Every time you take your first bite, you will bite into the stick. Otherwise, everything is good here.“
“Pete planned a great lunch for our teachers! We had a variety of wraps, salads, and chips/salsa/guac. Everyone loved the food and Pete made the ordering and pick up extremely easy! Will definitely be ordering from Little Louie's again soon!“
“Classic burger joint. I got a cheeseburger and fries. Both were made quickly. Fries are hot and crispy. Burger was a nice thin patty with brioche bun. Spent $14 which is more than I'd like but the ingredients taste high quality, so I guess that's why.“
“My favorite hot dog joint in Illinois. Hot dogs are delicious and looks damn beautiful fries are always perfectly salted and fried. Every time I come here the service is incredibly nice. I always take a few minutes to say hello to everyone, truely always a pleasure going. Not one bad time visiting this place definitely worth a visit.“
“Was near Roma's and haven't stopped by in a long time, wanted a good Italian beef, say no more. Definitely a great Chicago Neighborhood Vibe...One of Owner's was taking orders...Asked what I was in the mood for, "I said, a million bucks!" He said " Me too!"We laughed & dreamed...ordered the 6" Italian Beef with Sweet Peppers. Never mentioned whether I wanted dry or baptized, but gave me a perfect sandwich. I could handle the bun without worrying it would fall apart, not that I don't mind, but would need additional napkins. Certainly hit the spot, looking forward to trying their pizza next time...Looked delicious. "El Stool Presidente" would give it an 8.1, I'm sure! Cheers & Mangia!“
“Not too many hot chicks working here but that’s fine. The food was really good. The claw machine was broken so if you were gonna go there for just that don’t. This is completely irrelevant but Im a little bit hunger over today. Gonna eat some Korean and just take it easy tonight.“
“Best quick junk food on the north side for sure. Don't expect much if you're dining in. Just some stools and 1 extended counter. Chicago type of atmosphere for sure, but the food -- hot dogs, burgers, chicken sandwiches, mozzarella sticks are perfect. They always hook up the fries too, and it's pretty cheap.“
“Family-owned, old school Chicago lunch spot. Don't be fooled by the location in a strip mall. The owners take your order on a pad of paper and ring you up on a 1990s cash register. Menu is everything you'd expect from a Chicago burger/dog/italian beef spot. Greasy and delicious. If you're in the mood, this place hits the spot. A shame they are only open for lunch!“
“Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! Probably visited here last in the 2010s but still the same classic joint interior-wise and food-wise. Top 5 Gyros and Chicken Gyros spots in the Chicagoland suburban area in my opinion. Ordered their Chicken Gyros sandwich as well as a side of Oven-baked Greek Potatoes (pictured here). So much gyros meat and the potatoes are perfectly baked and soaked in broth. Not going to wait years for my next visit.“
“This is a cultural Chicago area Icon. Ok never mine the food is ALWAYS EXCEPTIONAL. It's the hot dog stand of your dreams. Everything is delicious- ive had it all over many years. Established in 1969, next door to Ryan Field in Evanston IL, it's a wonderful family business fantastic service, open late. Treat yourself it's worth it.Parking: Parking around the resturant and street parkingKid-friendliness: What kid doesn't like a hotdog or hamburger. Quality ingredients served just the way they like it“
“I was impressed with this place. Had traditional AND veggie dogs! Not over priced by today's standards. If I am back in the Chicago area I would definitely go back.Vegetarian options: They have veggie dogs!! Yay.Kid-friendliness: Wasn't loud and obnoxious. Cool stuff on walls.“
“The guys at this location are awesome, very friendly and cordial. If you have food allergies, they will take care of your order. We really like this place and their food.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free - Bunless burger wrapped in lettuce or burger in a bowl.“
“First off the service was great. They were very nice people. There are more tables than you'd expect but I imagine at busytimes might be more of a take out destination. And it seemed clean and bright inside which is good. The best food was the burger, juicy...it was a good solid burger. Kids weren't as big fans of the chicken gyro (would've gotten the real gyro but there wasn't much left, which probably means it's popular, when I got there, so would try that in the future). Fries were decent. They make the shakes from scratch (just probably need to clean the blenders (and/or ice cream scoopers) more btw uses as the plain chocolate shake had a strong minty note (also I wasn't paying attention but chocolate shakes gotta still have added choc syrup, I dunno if it did, which prolly means no). Oh and gotta use fresh bananas for banana shakes, syrup or powder, to quote the bard Mando, just isn't the way. And that might be my biggest gripe with an otherwise really solid diner-like joint.“
“Lovely food, really good prices! Get their chili and add their homemade hot sauce to it, then poor it over the fries. The horchata was also pretty good. The man who helped me was really kind and helpful. It’s both convenient and frustrating that it’s in a Walmart, but overall I’ll likely come to this Walmart just to grab this food as well.“
“I love when I get food that’s super Duper hot and I have to wait for it to pull off a little before I eat it. Everything tasted fresh considering it’s just a corndog. But very delicious toppings and the Kong fries were great. This is my favorite fast food.Parking: Clean ??Wheelchair accessibility: It’s a mall totally open. We parked in a handicap parking space right next to entrance ??“
“The Chicago style special, with a hot dog, pop, and chips definitely hit the spot before my flight. The Chicago-style dog with a poppy seed bun and a pickle, tomato, relish, onions, jalapeño peppers, and of course mustard, was delicious. I was tempted to go after one of the pizzas too but resisted.“
“Stopped today at Biggies per friends suggestion. Pleasantly surprised!! Ordered for take out, but noticed they have slot machines and even serve beer (noted for next time ;) I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich (added pickle) and fries . Wowza. The bun was toasted, the tomatoes and lettuce were fresh, and thick pickles!!! This is a YEP!“
“This is a small space in an older building with no tables. One guy was there by himself serving up orders as quick and efficient as some places with an entire staff.I ordered the Snappy Dog. Fries were piled on top. Ugh, I hate that. I realize it's an old Chicago tradition but it's not my thing. I have to admit it does give the fries some extra flavor in this case.It was on a fresh poppy seed bun with sport peppers, cheese sauce, onions, and their secret sauce (which tasted a lot like barbecue sauce). It was tasty with a bit of zip but very messy.I wouldn't mind trying some of their other unique menu items sometime.“
“Its a good quick bite. Food is consistent. Been stopping by when I'm in the area. But I used to eat here regularly when I worked in the area.Alot of other Al's have closed, I'm happy this one hasn't.Chicago has a lot of Italian Beef places, and reviews for this category is very subjective. But I have always liked Al's over Portillos, Mr.Beef, or Buona. But Johnny's on North Ave will always be top shelf for me.But this Al's has a bigger menu and is on the otherside of town, so if you're in the area swing by for a bite, most people aren't driving to Johnny's from Niles if they weren't planning on it from the start.“
“Food was great the owner Mark is very polite and attentive and made sure we were taken care of. The dining experience was very fresh and unique and I love the theme. Me and my girlfriend went here and both of our meals were good and the zesty fries were really nicely paired with the BBQ chicken sandwich. Soda dispensers were also well maintained and clean tasting and restaurant overall was clean and overall a really good concept and atmosphere. Can't wait to come back and try the ninja dog! Overall really cool place and great prices too compared to the portion you get.“
“Let me point out one key detail to why the hotdogs are so good at u dog u. Take a really good look at the photos that I’ve posted. you see that end of that hotdog you see how it’s twisted you see how it overhangs the bun well those are all great signs. Have a wonderful delicious hotdog. Also, I would like to point out the toppings sauerkraut ,sport peppers. These are the two things that we really should have on every single Chicago style hotdog and the only ketchup you see insight is on them fries and let me say ,them fries were crispy delicious warm in the center just the way you expected crinkle cut fries to be. they have mastered the art of the Chicago style hotdog and the crinkle cut fry.Parking: It’s certain times of a day it might be a little difficult to get a prime spot so you might have to walk about 25 to 50 feet to the door but man is that walk worth it and you’re gonna need it once you leave because the food is so damn good!Wheelchair accessibility: All the tables are wheelchair height and all the chairs can be moved to accommodate anyone in a wheelchair“
