General Info

The place has the feel of a mom and pop grill - brick walls, plain cement floor, wooden tables with red and blue covers and spicy smells emanating from the grill. The walls are decorated with murals depicting Chicago scenes from the 1930s and there’s an antique car hanging from the ceiling. Talk about a conversation piece!

Try the all-beef hot dog for two bucks. You can’t go wrong. It’s a sublime enticement stretching out invitingly on a golden bun, buried under fresh chopped onions, relish, peppers and tomatoes. You think that last line was hype? - wait till you bite into this baby. If you'd rather have a hamburger, there’s a char broiled beef burger, weighing in at two-thirds of a pound, which sells for around $5.00. And if you have a taste for an Italian beef sandwich, you have definitely come to the right place as well.
