Chicagoans rejoice! This is an oasis in a sea of horrible food. The menu is extensive, the prices are fair and the staff are wonderful. We had a great time speaking to Razz and reminiscing about good times back home. We ordered several dishes, the sliders, the polish sausage and italian beef. Needless to say we took a lot home the portions are more than fair. The fries were fantastic and what I took home the air fryer brought back to life. I never do that with fries normally. Anyway I know natives will be upset but you're used to the bad food. The rest of us who gravitated here like flavor without anything having to be soaked with green chilli. This is a must stop for out of towners.

Discovered this gem last September and have been coming here regularly since. Amazing food, great atmosphere and the service is second to none. 5 stars isn’t enough.

The service was actually outstanding and everyone was so sweet the only reason I had to give it 4 is my order was messed up, I ordered a Windy City and got a hot dog with cheese and sautéed onions… not sure what happened. However the food was DELICIOUS! My boyfriend got a burger and it tasted so good! We will definitely be back and new favorite hot dog spot!

Patio is nice and food is good but the service is always off. I ordered 3 hot dogs and a side of fries for carry out and got 3 hot dogs and 4 sides of fries. Who in their right mind is eating 3 fully dressed Chicago dogs and then still has room to consume over a lb of fries. Besides that the gal let me order an extra side of fries not mentioning that the hot dogs would all have fries included. I’m in food service myself so I can appreciate a mistake but, when one single person by themselves comes in and orders 3 hot dogs and a side of fries it would stand to be logical that that person does not likely desire 4 sides of fries but simply one. love the food but when someone’s lack of training/logic costs you 12$ on an already pricey chicago style lunch it’s hard to patronize the place. On to the next place to try and get my Vienna fix.

The food overall is not that great, pretty pricey. The Mac & cheese was not good at all. Server didn’t take down our order and kept forgetting things but they are very polite.

My friend and I went there for lunch. The service was outstanding and they are amazingly allergy friendly. I have celiac disease and I was actually able to get fries there. They have separate gluten free fryers and are able to make vegan/vegetarian accommodations! I would highly recommend going there!

This place has a true diner retro vibe. I love their massive burritos. It's a great dog-friendly brunch spot. They even had a small band playing some creat 80s covers.I think their take away isn't as good as eating there. The food gets a bit soggy in the container and I could swear the burritos were smaller in the to-go containers. Goes from great to just fine.

I'm a Chicago native visiting and discovered this comfy Chicago based Cafe. The owner was supremely nice and came to talk with us upon request after finding she was also a Chicago native. I ordered the Maxwell Street Polish and it was on point! The fries are hand cut and cooked to order. Very delicious. I'm definitely coming back on my next visit!Parking: Parking lot is a bit tight to maneuver but there's also street parking available

I don’t like to leave negative reviews of local businesses but my experience was so bad that I felt compelled. While there on a girls night I ordered a burger well done. I took one bite and it was rare on the edges (not even the center). When the server checked on us, I politely showed her and she politely agreed it was red and said she’d take it back and have the chef make a new one - great. All good so far. The new one comes. I cut it up and take a bite. Still very pink and not only that, while chewing I bite down on a gross chewy piece of gristly meat. I gag, immediately put my bite in my napkin and didn’t eat any more. When the server came to take our payment, my friend asked her in surprise if she was planning on charging me for this $18 burger that was gross and cooked wrong both times. The server said she had to or she’d lose her job. We asked to speak to a manager. No manager on duty. The server said she’ll call her. She comes back and tells me the manager said she doesn’t care I have to pay bc they prepared the food and they can’t lose the cost. She says the manager is from Chicago and maybe they just cook meat differently in Chicago bc people regularly say their burgers are too rare here. My friend and I were both quite taken aback. I asked if I could call the manager and explain myself Vs having it go through the server. The server wrote a phone number down for me for “Razz.” I called. No answer. At that point another server came over and both told us we were required to pay for this meal, and that this was not their fault but the chefs fault. I did pay, of course, but both of us were so appalled by the service and food that we’d never go back. Also, aside from being raw and gristly, the meat was grayish, dry and very poor quality. The 8 tater tots that came with it were barely warm (verging on cold) and unseasoned. The meal as a whole was super gross and the burger was $18!!! I can go to Hopdoddy, Lowry Beer Garden, 5 Guys or In n Out for a far superior burger comparably priced or less.

Small, good food, they took to making adjustments well. We had to grab someone to pay eventually as after food was delivered they didn't come back for a while.

Amazing vegan burger (minus cheese), the Resolution! Perfectly cooked with amazing toppings. Fav vegan burger in Aurora. Not many other vegan options but can sub impossible patty on any of their other selections. Also great happy hour margs and drinks as well as superb service. Highly recommend.
