More of a 3.5 First time went, I loved this mom & pop joint. Sweetest and best service from the 2 ladies. The gravy bread was delicious. Italian beef and burgers were also good. However, recently went and had chili and a tamale. The tamale was prepacked and frozen, in which they just microwaved it up for me...never seen that before (maybe at a convenience store). The chili looked good but tasted straight up like tomato paste and ketchup. Fast service, but you can tell the food is not fresh, especially if it is not busy. Stick with the sandwiches, but can't beat the service. Cash only, but if you don't have, you can pay them back later! They also have a large variety of food including falafel.
Review Source:Was visiting from Boston and wanted a good Chicago Hot Dog and it was right around the corner from where I was staying. Â Went in and got a couple jumbo dogs and the food was excellent. Â
Most impressed with the atmosphere and service. Â A true mom and pop shop with the nicest mom around. Â I didn't have any cash on me and she said to just come back the next day and pay her because she wouldn't let anyone go hungry. Â Such a sweet lady, wish I was staying longer to try the rest of the menu items. Â Will be going back in here next time I'm in Chicago.
