"Food was delicious and made on a timely basis. The sweet steak 2 for 1 before 2pm was out of this world. The 10 wings for $9.99 were excellent, and not those little wings a lot of other places sell. The place is somewhere you should check out."

"I love the freshness and cleanliness of the place. The Italian beefs are awesome! The polishes, nachos, tacos and burgers. Everything!!! They also sell Italian ice and shakes! I just been told they have another location on 183rd country club hills. They’re just as good!! Check out either place for a great polish, hot dog, burger, or Italian beef!! Never disappoint"

"I so love this place!! Never been disappointed until today tbt. I normally call and place my order so I come and pick up. For some apparent reason they was not answering the phone at all today. I don’t live in Illinois at all. When I arrived I asked the young lady at the counter are they not answering the phone . She then told me no they never take order over the phone. I told her then that’s not true because I’ve placed orders several times over the phone and came and picked my food up. But other than that all the food is amazing"
