First time there. I pulled up at 5 min before closing time and was waved in by the owner who was standing in the window. Couple of hot dogs for my boy, nice crisp snap on them, hand cut french fries, steak sandwich for myself. The meat was grilled perfectly and served with carmelized sweet onions and W sauce on the side and served on toasted garlic bread. There is nothing I would have done differently.
Wide selection of beers and a very knowledgeable, friendly staff that makes you feel at home. Good prices.
There are places that you can tell that are passionate about their product; this is one of them. Ask the owner how something is made, like something off the new smoked menu, and you're in for a great conversation. It's going to be a regular spot for me. Woohoo! As good as it gets!
My husband and I dropped by after Fat Tommy's was featured on Chicago's Best as we live in the neighborhood. You order and pay, then seat yourself. We both had the bacon wrapped hot dogs and fries which were really good, but a little pricey to be honest. Their beer selection was really good and I love love love a frosted mug. The owner was very friendly as well. Though it was a little on the pricey side for what you get, we will come back, just not often.
