Billy's Grill

This is the epitome of a South Side Diner.  Not many of these left; you simply have to experience this place!  A very wide ranging and low cost menu, most of which is scratch made by owner Jim.  Be sure to sit at the counter so Linda can give you more trouble than you can handle -- great entertainment!  And she will remember exactly what you ordered the last time you were in.  Wonderful traditional breakfasts.  The Daily Specials are excellent, especially the meatloaf and the spaghetti.  Ham off the bone in the omelets.  No legible sign on the building at the corner of Columbus and Lawndale.  Open only on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and a half-day on Saturday.  You can become part of genuine American treasure -- you will absolutely love it.  But please don't take my seat at the counter!
