AMAZING!!!! We are traveling cross country(Arizona to Michigan) and we wanted to eat at a restaurant that we are not to find back home. Upon a search of where to eat, we came across Apollo, a family style dinner, where we met Roberta amazing waitress and Nick the owner. 7 of us ordered and we all got our food quickly and a hot. The food is amazing .

Fantastic messiness that nails the formula perfectly.

Fantastic coneys. Friendly owner operator. Fast service. Some of the best coneys in the area.

This is one of the last few original Coney Island left. If you want a great coney stop in here. All the food coming off the grill looked great. The guy next to me had the Greek Salad it looked awesome too. They only accept cash!

Hot dogs and chili were sub-par (cheap hotdogs for sure). Waitress was nice and facility decently clean.

We love Portillo's. We have been here for a few Yelp event as well as just on our own. My wife and…read moreher parents are from Chicago, the home of Portillo's, so when they visit us, we have to go here! We do not normally come to this location but they are all pretty similar. This location is on 535 very close to SeaWorld, and also in a very touristy area. They have opened a few locations around Central Florida. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a drive thru. I think their food is best eaten there so its hot and fresh. Inside their decor is a mix of old timey cars and car hops. It reminds me of a restaurant you would find in the 60s. Its fun, the staff are fun, there is music and they also sell beer. I don't think I have ever really seen a fast food restaurant serving beer. Im sure they exist but I cant think of one. This is a fun environment, the staff calls your order out and then when its ready they use very fun slogans to tell you its time, such as "Order 165 it's time to shine" and "Order 173 come and meet me". This is perfect for families not looking to spend a ton of money and also get a hot dinner or lunch. There were a lot of families in here eating dinner when we went. It is very touristy at this location, the shopping center it is in, also has a White Castle so just be prepared. There were plenty of parking spots though. Portillo's menu is very simple, they have hot dogs, burgers/chicken sandwiches, salads, bowls and Italian beef. However, they are most known for their Chicago style hot dogs. Their Italian beef is very good, they dip the sandwich in a hot au jus sauce. A Chicago dog has mustard, green relish, celery salt, tomatoes, onions, a pickle and peppers sandwiched on the hot dog. This is a meal on top of the hot dog. My wife usually orders the Chicago dog with no onions or relish. I usually go for the Italian beef or one of their salads or bowls. I usually get something different each time. This visit, I actually went with the Italian Sausage and Beef combo served on a hoagie bun. This was a great combo and even my wife mentioned how the sausage was really good and something she would probably get next time. Service is always really great. Everyone is always nice and friendly. Someone is always cleaning the tables, everyone says hello, they are just really great with their service. Drinks can be refilled, you just need to go to the counter if they do not have their own self service machine. I would definitely recommend this chain. The food is great, service fantastic and a fun vibe inside. ACES!

This location is located on 535 very close to SeaWorld, and also very touristy. There are other locations around Central Florida, and this is not the location we usually visit as there is a closer one to our home. But we came here for a Yelp event and it is just as fantastic as other locations! The restaurant itself, has indoor and outdoor seating, along with a drive thru. The inside is a mixture of cars and tires meet tourists meet your old-fashioned car hops. It is a very fun environment. Music is on, everyone is friendly, and they are very funny calling out your numbers. Such as "Order 252 it's time to meet you" or "Order 365 it's time to shine". It's a fun place and perfect for families not looking to spend a ton of money. The food is pretty much hot dogs and burgers/chicken sandwiches, but they are known for their hot dogs, plain and simple. They also offer other options such as chicken, fish, burgers, salads and bowls and Italian beef. The Italian beef is fantastic, it gets dipped in a hot au jus sauce, but you can also ask for no dip as well. Their bowls are not like a rice bowl, it is their beef or sausage minus the bread. This is what my husband usually orders, and he loves it. I usually go for the Italian beef or the classic Chicago dog. A Chicago dog has mustard, the brightest green relish you have ever seen, celery salt, tomatoes, onions, a pickle and peppers sandwiched on the hot dog. This is a big dog! This can be customized any way you want it, remove something add something, it is how you want it. This visit I did order the Chicago dog with no relish or onions. It's how I prefer it. My husband ordered something new, he tried the Italian Sausage and Beef combo which was served on a hoagie bun. The sausage was actually really so good! I think I found a new favorite item, I will be getting the sausage next time. The service is really great too, everyone is always friendly. They will give you refills; they call out your number really fun and it's just a great place. They read your order back when you order which I also really like. It is quick service, fast food whatever you want to call it, but they do make it an experience. I would definitely recommend this chain. This is new to Orlando, probably within the last couple years, but it brings a touch of the north down here! I love it! It is loud so kids can be loud. It is not super expensive so its a good meal for the family. There are a lot of items so there should be something for everyone. The only difference is the Portillo's in Chicago also have a huge pasta section which I miss. Their pasta was good! I would love to see it here.

My husband & I got the day off work so we decided to try this place out for lunch…read more The place was very clean & the staff were friendly! Since it was our first time we decided to get the mega box of 5 different corn dogs, an order of dirty fries, & horchata slush. Everything was delicious! The tater tots alone without any toppings were seasoned well. I was very unsure about the sugary toppings on some of the corn dogs, but they were actually really good! If you like sweet & salty then you'll enjoy those ones! The horchata slush was tasty as well. We will definitely be back!

This place is a new korean corn dog spot in Macomb, and definitely worth a try. The inside is set…read moreup like a fast food joint, where you order at the counter and collect at the window, but they have some seating in case you want to eat in. My main emphasis here is that the flavors were very good, but they're still working out some operational kinks. Here's what I mean: - They have 100% sausage, 100% mozzarella, or half and half options. All of the options are good, but they ended up putting several of different kinds in the same box, so we couldn't tell which one was which/whose was whose until someone bit into them. - The toppings are good, but they swapped which toppings were supposed to go with which fillings in our order, so only half of our party got what they ordered. - They have limited soft drink options, but they do have very good-looking lemonades, which I haven't yet tried but would like to The staff seemed a bit disorganized, but once they work out how to optimize their system, I think this will be a very good place to get this unique cuisine.

Matt & Mo's is located inside the ice cream shop, Doug's Delight. Its most notable menu item is the…read moreItalian beef sandwich. The sandwich originated in Chicago, so I like that Matt & Mo's has a replica of Wrigley Field's ivy wall. On the flip side, I didn't like being charged a 4% fee for paying with a card. My wife ordered a pepperoni pizza puff along with French fries. The pizza puff fell apart too easily, and was basically a larger version of a Totino's pizza roll. The fries were standard. With my sandwich, I ordered poutine. The consistency and flavor of the gravy made the poutine much better than average. As for the Italian beef, it did not disappoint. I regret getting just sweet peppers, as I should have gotten either hot or mild peppers with the sweet. I did get the whole sandwich dipped in au jus, which was the right move. This was my first time having an Italian beef, so it's hard to judge, but I definitely enjoyed it. Next time, I will bring cash to pay, and might even try some of the other menu items. I look forward to trying Doug's Delight, as well.

Service was amazing. I've never had an italian beef before but I was talked through the toppings,…read morespices, and sauces. Very patient and great vibes at the order and pickup window. I ordered the combo which is possibly the best sandwich I've ever had. Moist/well-seasoned beef, garlic bread with just right amount of garlic, italian sausage, and I added provolone as well. Everything meshed together perfectly.
