BEWARE! Menu prices don’t matter. Employees literally make up their own prices based on “inflation”. Charged me 12.50 for a cheeseburger and fries when it’s listed at 8.50 on the menu. Unbelievable. This place used to be a good solid burger joint. Hope they get their act together

Cheese fries are life-changing
Mrs. B.
We had a few questions about the items we'd never had. The person at the window was extremely helpful & knowledgeable. The food was great. Our sandwiches came with sides of potatoe salad which I had forgotten. We ordered a side of fries and onion rings. Plenty to split between the 5 of us.
Update-10/3/24 stopped in to pick up lunch for 2. 1 Ruben special #5 how it comes. 1 on white no sauerkraut. 2 drinks & a side of fries. $36. Unfortunately that's pretty average nowadays. The meal was great. I wish I would have had a little more thousand but I'll remember that for the next time xtra 1000 on the side. Lots of new faces behind the counter. The guy manning the grill & the young lady who rang me up & bagged everything were friendly & talkative. We had a great discussion about books & different ways to read. Paper vers kindle vs audio. We'll definitely be back not just for the food but for the conversation as well.

Horrible service. 4 times tried to get a pastrami sandwich. Twice they were out. Twice their server was down. Couldn't take any order as it would mess up their inventory. I asked why don't they take written orders and update the inventory later. Sorry owner, you don't know how to take orders or manage inventory. I give you a zero star as an owner They vehemently relayed they couldn't because their boss said so. Evidently their boss can't keep track of their inventory whether their server is up or down.

Went off the reviews and can’t believe they’re at 4 stars. Very disappointed with the chicken sandwich especially for the price. $15 is a rip off
Classic hotdog place known in the Chicago car scene. I like coming here for their burgers

Great food, generous portions, great atmosphere. The best 50s diner in the western suburbs.
