“I can only comment about the food because we tasted it for the first time this weekend and we had the fried chicken! Omg!! Great chicken it was said over and over at the party! The BBQ sauce was amazing too! Whoever friend the chicken for the catered trays on Saturday 12/30 ?? ?? it was perfect!! We live near by and will be ordering from here soon!!!“
“We enjoyed a lovely meal with delicious food and great service. Joe was our server and was very knowledgeable and attentive. The baked clams were exceptional and the raw oysters were so good! We had several appetizers and each ordered a meal. Zero complaints from us! The pork chop with Marsala mushrooms was amazing! Well done Vinny's, we'll be back!“
“We were warmly greeted by Chelsea when we arrived. We were seated at a cozy table toward the back of the restaurant. Frank Sinatra music was playing in the background. Our waitress Melissa brought us water to the table with the days specials. There is a good wine & cocktail selection. We started with the shrimp & calamari along with truffle fries for an appetizer. The shrimp & calamari were cooked perfectly while seasoned with the right amount of oil and garlic. The truffle fries garlic aoli sauce was very good, not overpowering. For dinner, we had chicken parmesan served with penne pasta as the side. The portion size was big. The chicken was cooked well, not overloaded with sauce and the right amount of cheese. The other dish order was the risotto of the day, shrimp & grape tomato. Highly recommend the risotto. It was cooked perfectly with big delicious shrimp mixed in with the risotto. As delicious as it was, room was being saved for dessert. Not many restaurants serve flourless chocolate cake, but Frankie's 1988 does. It is served with a carmel sauce, pecans, and vanilla gelato. I have had many flourless chocolate cakes in my life, and none compare to the one made at Frankie's. It is dense, almost like dark chocolate fudge that just melts in your mouth. They also have canolis, tirimisu, and an assortment of gelato. The staff was so nice, checking on us throughout our dinner, ensuring we were never out of water. Frankie introduced himself to us as we were leaving. We had to tell him how amazing the risotto was today. Frankie said that their kitchen is a scratch kitchen and will gladly make items not on the menu if the kitchen has the ingredients. Frankie's 1988 is a 5 Star restaurant nestled in a strip mall in Tinley Park.Dietary restrictions: Many gluten-free and vegetarian options are available.“
“This place is slept on. Food is amazing, staff is professional. Hope the food and prices stay the same. My favorite spot in the south side by far. At the moment, they are better than Albawadi and fatooush. Mixed grill or one of the sandwiches, you can’t go “
“Everything was on point! They made my aunt's 90th birthday special. My favorite dish is the Bang Bang Shrimp. It is shrimp with a kick. We had a problem and the staff took care of it immediately and made it right. This is one of my top ten restaurants!!!“
“Such a great seafood place, south suburbs, small strip center. I'd heard it was good, today is my first visit and oh boy is this place good the best place for seafood in the whole Chicago area. Yelp showed then add number 51 in the country . Today I had the Lobster Roll, warm. I also tried the fish and chips, both absolutely excellent about the best I've had. This lobster roll is on par with my all time favorite place, Burgundy Square Cafe in Venice, Fl. Both excellent, I'm so glad to know I no longer have to go to Florida to have the best Lobster Roll.I will be back, and often! Luckily Island Shrimp is only 45 minute drive away.“

“This was my Second time visiting this restaurant, and I brought my guy in to try their food. Ms. Darcy waited on us, and she was warm, and inviting as we walked in. We didn’t even have to get up when our food was ready, Ms. Darcy brought it to us!! He had a catfish dinner, and he thoroughly enjoyed it! I had the chicken wing dinner and it was a hit as well!! We tried the jerk egg rolls as well once we got home and they were good…not spicy enough for my taste though. The atmosphere here was a bit “smoky” I’m sure from the grills but the smoke consumed the dining room atmosphere. Overall, we were pleased with the food and may come back to pick up take out!“
“The menu selection was very good. The pork belly tacos had the perfect cook of crispy outside and tender inside pork. The oysters were so fresh, we felt like they had just been pulled out of the water. Our server, Jeff, was very attentive without being annoying. Definitely will be back.“
“Wonderful murals on walls, but when it’s dark the lights were that cafeteria bright lights and not warm/inviting. Server was super nice, but refills on salsa were slow. Very accommodating with slight adjustments to meals. Cost of a bottle of Corona Light over $6 - too high and no draft beers at all. Taco chips not my favorite and the guacamole was only so-so. Overall, good but there are so many Mexican options in the area to explore as well.“
“the food is great, fresh and hot, and the service is great. Drinks are great. Music is great, just a great vibe. You can't go wrong, go check it outParking: park in the lot or on streetKid-friendliness: they can play games while eatingWheelchair accessibility: right on corner“
“This bar is a very nice GEM that has a great decor. The beers are ice cold and the drinks very refreshing. Taco Tuesdays are very tasty and the catfish dinner is Awesome. This is a very friendly bar with colorful characters. Watch the game from any seat or select a song from touch tunes and dance your cares away. Try you luck on the gaming machines or just have a couple of drinks with your buds.Parking: I-57 close byWheelchair accessibility: Easy access ramp“
“As someone with a peanut allergy who loves pad Thai it can be so hard to find a place that can make sure it’s allergen free. Jewel of Siam did just that and it was the best pad Thai I’ve ever had. I found my new go to place! Highly recommend their food and the restaurant and staff are lovely.Dietary restrictions: Staff is accommodating to nut allergies“
“Like this old school fish market I imagine it's been around for a minute. I am new to coming here but because of the distance I don't come often. But when I do the people who work here are very nice The cashier is very sweet. And the guys that cut the fish they always aim to please offer great options. Making the distance to travel here all worth it.“
“The fish and food is soooo good! I live in Atlanta but was able to pull up when I was in Chicago last year. I love that they are opened late for those late night cravings. They only had one woman taking orders and she was working like an ox all with the best attitude! She definitely could have used some help. Nevertheless, it was a good experience and I can't wait to go back!“
“The food was amazing! I live in the suburbs and wouldn’t definitely make the trip to them. I’ve tried different places with the same menu and none of them come close! Definitely going back and recommending it to anyone looking for a really good boil.“
“The service is top notch and down to earth. The cheese they use is grade A! I've had the deep dish before but wasn't a fan, only because it's too sweet of a sauce for my taste. However I recently tried the thin crust and it worked very well under the cheese with the sausage, bell pepper, onions and mushrooms. Seems like they saute the bell peppers and they are long pieces not diced. It's costly pie but we did get the 18 inch with 4 toppings, which came to $40. But all costs are rising. I would definitely come back to get a personal pizza for myself! I will have them brown the cheese next time. Definitely worth a try. I enjoyed the antipasto salad, just wish they chopped the meat and cheese instead of long slices that were still partially connected. I had to re-cut it which I didn't particularly mind doing but prefer it done for me if I'm paying for it.“
“Let me start by saying I love black owned businesses! I've been living in the city my entire life and this my first time actually trying this place to my memory and it did not disappoint! Don't let my pictures fool you, those were taken in the middle of me eating and I knew then I had to leave a review! The spaghetti is tasty and the shrimp are really seasoned! The service is pretty quick and efficient, I liked it! The ambiance is pretty chill, I enjoyed seeing all the articles about Mr. Haire and even the memorial area they have set up for him it was really touching! I will surely be back to eat again!!“
“I wanted some shrimp so bad couldn't find a restaurant close so I thought about Haires I drove to the Vincennes location order shrimp dinner with fries was very disappointed the shrimp was not cooked to light to greasy the fries no taste did not look the the menu on Facebook I spent $18 dollars it used to be good I will not be visiting again not satisfied at all“
“We stoped in on Valentine's Day for dinner. Suprise! No waiting... Had a decent size crowd there with a lot of constant chatter but we had no problem with it. I ordered the Wednesday special...the $5.00 build your own Burger with Chips or Fries (I opted to upcharge to tator tots) It was hot and jucy with crispy tator tots. My friend had the Smoked BBQ Brisket Bowl... We love coming here and look forward to our next visit!“
“If you love a local dive bar, where the people know you, the owner's awesome, & the drinks are stiff. Look no further! always inviting & drinks are good and inexpressive. The bartenders are attentive. The owner is hands on & personable. If your in Posen, stop by this little piece of “
“It was a little after 9:00pm on a Saturday, when I spotted this J & J Restaurant. I went inside to place my order and was immediately impressed by its cleanliness. The floor, tables/seats, counters and the food preparation area...all very clean.The young woman that took my order was friendly and courteous. There was only one person ahead of me, however, some people had phoned in their orders, so there was a waiting period. I didn't mind because the time went so quickly. Also, unlike other J & J's, this one has a drive-thru.I ordered 3 dinners to go; a small jack salmon, a small ocean perch and a 6 pc. chicken wing dinner. Extras included an order of fried okra, hush puppies and a corn on the cob (a full size ear). Each dinner included:French fries, a very small cup of coleslaw and 2 slices of white bread in addition to the mild and hot sauce they provide.The fish was fried to perfection, light and crispy, not greasy. The chicken was also fried to perfection, crispy and not hard or greasy. All the side dishes were well prepared. Since none of us eats coleslaw or white bread, I can't speak about them.As for being different, in addition to its drive-thru, this J & J offers a variety of foods that I've never seen offered in any of the others; tacos, spaghetti, and a selection of salads, just to name a few.“
“This is my favorite place to grab some finger licking good Chicken along with potatoe Wedges and all sorts of variety meals to choose from. I would like to say special shout out to Mz Sam... She is so nice and great customer service. She is definitely my type of friendly customer service. They were closing but she still took care of me. Thanks..??“
“We went when it opened Saturday at noon. We were the only people here for a while and were hesitant. Let me tell you- this was an amazing meal. Probably the best I ever had. The drinks were incredible ( the June bug was my favorite.) so much food for the price. We took a lot home as well. Server was so sweet. Had an amazing time and can’t wait to be back .“
“I've been coming here since they've opened and they never steered me wrong. The food is always fresh seasoned to your liking. The staff are very well mannered and kind. I love it here. If you all are ever in Homewood and want some seafood please come check them out.“
“Tried the Oak Park location on a Wednesday night. It was FANTASTIC! I got a pound of Alaskan King crab legs, and while they didn’t come with crab crackers, we only had a little trouble breaking the meat out. Phenomenal crab legs. They came with perfectly seasoned red potatoes and corn on the cob. My partner ordered (fried) shrimp tacos and could not stop raving about them. The shrimp was very fresh. We also ordered fresh cut fries and they were outstanding, though they could use a bit more seasoning. But extra seasoning was brought upon request. The owner, Shawn, brought out the food, was attentive to our needs, and even struck up a friendly conversation as we left. Fantastic decor/theme, friendly staff and exceptional service! 10/10, and we will definitely be back. Thank you for a great dinner! Two dinners, since I had leftovers!“
“Good breakfast place. Server took my order and never came back to check on me or my guest. I had to get a different server to help me. Ordered the perch. (Wasn't fully cooked) The Manager had a nice personality, the 2nd server was very nice, reordereda breakfast plate and it was good.“
“I came here with family and friends to celebrate my two kids' birthday, and we had an awesome time. The hibachi is a must do. The kids and adults enjoyed not only the food but the entertainment of the chefs. I ordered the chicken and steak and they both were very good along with the other sides the chefs cooked up in front of us.“
“Great food, the Chicago Style shrimp crackle with flavor with every bite! Fish chips are also tasty. I have been eating Franks for the last 10 years and it's always on point. I wish they had a dine in area to enjoy the freshness there. Never been served anything I didn't like here.“
“This has been added to my wife and mine favorite list.Vegetarian options: Everything on the menu is vegetarian if you don't add an animal based protein at the end.Dietary restrictions: Mostly, everything is healthy here.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring your kids to try something new.Cookie store next door, if it doesn't work out for you.“
“They definitely need more advertising. Their food is absolutely the best, from the steaks, burgers , chicken, and ribs. The entire staff is great! We drive from Lemont, and it's really worth the drive. Do yourself a favor and try it. You will not regret it.“
“First time trying this place and I was blown away. The Chicago style shrimp were amazing and the deep fried cauliflower was the sleeper hit of the sides. William was amazing with answering questions and when I mentioned a food allergy in the party he immediately went in back to grab to item I was concerned about to let me check the ingredients myself. That kind of customer service is rare and appreciated. We will be back...after the food coma. I ate way too much but it was SO good.“

“We are very impressed with the quality of the wings! We are now switching from Buffalo Wild Wings to Wingz it iz :) I ate up these wings pretty good! Price is a better deal. We paid $50 for 50 wings. We will be back again.Parking: Plaza parking“
“This. Place. Slaps. Like omg. I got the lemon pepper chicken tenders w fries and fried shrooms and the Beyoncé tea jug. The chicken and fries were so good, I didn’t even need to dig for the sauces I didn’t even know were in the bottom of the bag (bbq and ranch, not anything special). The shrooms were so fly, my cat ripped into the bag while I was sleeping and had some. (He also ripped into the empty chicken box hoping for a snack there, too.) I heated the shrooms up the next day w some shredded cheese on top and it was ???. They also heavily advertise that they take ebt, but they will add on a $2 cash charge to an ebt purchase, fyi. The ppl watching inside was GREAT. the gal behind the glass was sooo sweet. Whoever’s mans was in the kitchen needs all the gold stars. They also have some groceries for sale like pantry items, ice creams in a cooler, a kiddie gum-ball machine. It’s connected to a shell, so you can fill up, get your scratchers, buy yo ciggies all at the same time, God willing. Srsly, God WOULD eat here if he touched down on the S Side for a day, hand to God. ? also, there’s no eat-in fyi, but it’s so good, I devoured most of it in the car driving to the TJs for snacks/dips. (Dips that I didn’t even need bc it was So. Dayum. Good. By itself. Srlsly) I’m gonna be having dreams about this place until I go back. I can only imagine how good the rest of their fancier menu items are. Tbone?! Crab legs?!! Lobstaaa tail?!!! Lolll who needs to get groceries for the rest of the month when you can have a feast from here?!?! (Jk/not rlly jk) Go. Gogogogogogogo ??Parking: Buncha spots in front connected to shell stationKid-friendliness: Easy walk-in, grab n go kinda place.“
“The New York strip was huge! The flavoring and the cook, were spot on. Although the steak could have been more tender, it tasted delicious so I can't take off any stars for that.Upon seating they served complimentary bread with a tomato sauce and cheese, a small portion of noodle salad, and a slice of cooked bell pepper.The soup that I had before my meal was hot and welcoming.The house merlot went perfectly with the meal.Service was outstanding. Nice experience!“
“Great food all the time. I am truly a regular, and I never had a meal that I had to complain about or return. Must ask for bread. Cabbage and cheese is the best ? ? ?Parking: There's a large shared parking lot, and you may find a spot right in front, but wherever you park, there is only a short distance to walk from the restaurant.“
“I’m not sure what they frying they chicken in but it’s GREEEAAATTT every time!!! I always have to have extra EXTRA LEMON PEPPER when I go elsewhere but not here!!!! Man they chicken hit the spot every time. And litters not forget the amazing cashier Deb she’s such a sweet lady that greets you with plenty of smilesParking: Very limited parking spot due to several other places in the same lot but it’s worth the wait for the service you will receive“
“Coming from a person who enjoys to entertain but dislikes cooking, this is the perfect combination of quality and quantity! The fresh ingredients and blend of flavors will not disappoint your taste buds.? Perfect tray for hosting or meal prepping“
“First time trying. It was amazing - I had the 6 piece jerk dinner ( included salad , plantains and red beans & rice under the chicken and a slice of bread ) I had an additional mac and cheese and yams ( they standard size is huge by the way, definitely get your moneys worth ) my total was under $14 before the extra sides I got but it came out to $24 with everything. It included 1 very small sauce but truly that’s all you need.Thank you all again!“

“My experience was fantastic. They have a Mother’s Day special until the 14th. Jade the asst. manager was great. Also our server Eddy took care of us. The customer service was on point. Definitely will dine again. Planning the next visit with friends as I type this message. Great food, great customer service, great ambiance, great deals and in a great location. Check it out for yourself. You be the judge.“
“Best time ever... the food was awesome! The staff was attentive and worked together as a team.. there were very friendly and well informed... the drinks OMG.... The Rockefeller oysters to die for!!!! My lamb chops I just can't even explain... oh my god the pepper soup ... Nevermind just go!!!!! And talk to Nick the owner he is so sweet and friendly I just love him.... Be on the lookout for his new restaurant #hashtag95“
“Love LOVE LOVEEEE!!! Everything about them. So helpful! So friendly! Black owned too! Chicken and fries are my fav go to. Only two people in the kitchen but it didn’t take long for the food to be done. Go support ♥️✨they’re for the neighborhood and for the people ✊? I’ll be back ??“

It's a great parking lot what else“
“This is not my normal JJ Fish & Chicken that I frequent however the young lady that took my order was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I spent over $80, you want establishments to appreciate your patronage as well as the money they you spend in their shops and stores. The coleslaw did need some work. If I'm ever in the area again I will certainly revisit.“
“THIS WAS SUCH A CUTE PLACE. The fusion between cultures is in my opinion just a delight. The food was so profoundly delicious my taste receptors won’t take anything else and this all I crave now. The girl attending me not sure of her name but she was amazing and very sweet including her coworker.“
“Tried the jerk barbecue rib tips. I wasn't terribly fond of them but then I remembered they were JERK so I settled into the flavor. Next visit I tried the beef short ribs and they were very good with the sweet potatoes and the greens both also good. Last visit I tried the oxtails. They were incredible and I look forward to getting them again. The sweet potatoes were also delicious. However, this time the greens were extremely bland, but that won't stop me from going back.“
“I swear, this place should be making a killing off of their teas alone. The most flavorful teas I've had compared to most other boba places I've been. I got a Thai milk tea from a donut place, then came straight here when I tasted that flavorless milk tea because I knew they wouldn't disappoint. I've had at least half of their teas at this point, and none have missed.The food is just a huge bonus. Firstly, I'm so glad that they have kimchi; it's really good! Secondly, I know egg drop soup is usually on the more subtle side, but this was the most appetizing egg drop soup I've ever had (then again, I've been to no Michelin Star restaurants). Third, it's a clean place and the staff is friendly! Fourth, and most importantly for me, none of their seafood dishes so far have had that "may or may have expired" taste. The shrimp and scallops are always fresh tasting! I don't know what I'd do if this place closed for some reason.“
“Our first time visiting. It was soooo pretty inside. Loved the music. Our waitress was awesome. (Wish I would have gotten her name.). The food was superb! We had pot stickers, shrimp fried rice and Governor's chicken. It was all delicious!! We will be back!“
“Decided to stop in for lunch, usually Pepe's is the go to, but wanted to try something new. Food was unbelievable and the margarita was probably one of the best I've ever had. We sat at the bar and the server was very attentive. Bill was about the same as what it would have been at Pepe's but the portions sizes were way bigger. Looking forward to going back.“
