    Photo of wrong receipt...
    George M.

    Date: 22-May-2024 Time: Dinner Total (before tip): $15.23 Payment type: cash Server: Take out order Grade: B So I have decided to go there for dinner. It was on my way home and I was always curious about the place. They have a fairly robust menu and good amount of choices, I ended up choosing half slab of ribs dinner. Now, ordering was a bit of complicated... So there were two people by the counter, on the side, before jumping to place my order, I have asked if they were waiting to place an order, they were not, they were waiting for their food, the guy at the counter was on the phone, was not paying attention.... As I approached the counter to place the order, apparently, the guy behind the counter announced that someone's order was ready and the person stepped up to pick it up and pay for it, which made it confusing... Finally, after another person piked up their order, I was able to place my order... I ordered half a slab dinner, it came with rice (but fries or baked potato is an option), garlic bread and coleslaw. It didn't take long for it to come out. You could tell the guy behind the counter was not paying attention as he gave me a wrong receipt... I got home and was pleasantly surprised to the size of it. The size of the rice was pretty generous, the coleslaw size was about what I was expecting and the garlic bread was a decent size too. I started with coleslaw and it was your typical, creamy based coleslaw. Rice was next and I was amazed at how flavorful it was, I really liked the rice! The ribs were up next and they were better then most ribs out there, definitely above average, I am one of those weird-o that is looking for this perfect balance of them being firm and falling off the bone, for me it has to be that perfect spot, this one came close! BBQ sauce was pretty good! As for the garlic bread, it's hard to fuck up! A solid B! Definitely will be back to try something else!

    It says they were open... the door was unlocked... but was told they were closed at the counter

    Run of the mill gyro/ hot dog joint... decent for a quick bite. Disappointed tonight that I arrived, the lights and open sign on, door was open but when I approached the counter I was told they were closed. Very bizarre.

    I just stopped by after reading this ratings, good food, friendly people Indo recommend,

    You can see the mold and bacteria growing on the inside of the soap dispenser in the bathroom!

    Perch tasted like a giant frozen fish stick! Bathrooms were not sanitary and I couldn't even wash my hands because the soap dispenser was so disgusting! They had to have never changed the old soap and just kept adding more soap on top because there was MOLD in the dispenser! I wonder if the kitchen's soap is the same way!? GROSS!

    Apollo Grill is a unique looking restaurant off of North Avenue in Lombard. The inside has a fair number of plants hanging and has a large clean dining area. They also have a fairly diverse menu with hamburgers, hot dogs and even a few pasta options. In visiting I decided to try the hot dog. The hot dog I received came on a soft poppy seed bun. It did not appear to have any celery salt or sport peppers on it but the other standard Chicago-style hot dog ingredients were present. The application of mustard, relish and onion were spot on. The pickle used was thin, but a bit on the sour side. Two nice sized slices of thin tomato were on the top of the dog covering it enough to get tomato in every bite. The wiener itself was skinless and slightly thicker than most, I don't think it was a jumbo but it didn't appear to fall into the realm of a stock sized dog. While service was a little on the slow side this was an excellent representation of a Chicago style hot dog and short of sport peppers and celery salt is exactly what you would expect. Fairing well above average Apollo Grill earns a solid four stars.

    Apollo chicken sandwich. Fantastic

    The food was pretty good but the eating area and bathrooms were not very clean. I probably won't return.

    Friendly service and delicious food. I'm health conscious, and ordered the grilled chicken salad it came with a pita and was huge.

    So I was on an architectural survey and wanted something good and local. Since I'm from Columbus,…read morewhere the food can be pretty meh, I figured I'd give this place a shot because the reviews were great. At first, I was disappointed they didn't have Chicago Italian beef. So I asked what they would recommend, and the very polite lady behind the counter said, "You should try my meatball sub." I laughed and told her, "I don't know... my late grandma (100% Italian) made the best meatballs ever, but alright, let's do it." Then she asked, "Do you want peppers?" and of course my reply was, "Heck yeah!" She chuckled. When the sub came out, I have to say, it was huge. I sat down, took one quick smell and a bite... BOOM. I was instantly transported back to my grandma's kitchen, eating Saturday pasta and meatballs. I highly recommend checking this little gem out. The service, the atmosphere, and especially the food were all amazing. I definitely was not disappointed. P.S. Don't skip the desserts -- once again, absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for the memories and the great experience!

    Since my favorite deli in Franklin Park IL closed after 60 years, not really but it was sold and…read morethe new owners are going in a different direction so with empty meat cases the subs must be gone. So I had to find a new Italian deli in the area and this place had an authentic Italian sub on the menu with prosciutto, Genoa salami, capicola, provolone cheese, Italian dressing, lettuce and tomato that I added raw onions, hot giardiniera and mayo. It's a deli/mini mart/gambling machine/cafe with friendly service. The meats were skimpy was my first thought, see my pictures. My first thought after taking the first bite was WOW this Italian hoagie bread was perfect/fresh with that great chew/pull. Even with the skimpy meat the whole combination with me tweaking the sandwich was so fu#king delicious I got a second one to take back to WI for dinner. The area probably has a better Italian deli the residents will tell you but I'm in town once a year so next year I will try another Italian deli until I find one to start a new tradition like my old friend for many years that is no more. My final thought is that the price point is similar to the chain sub restaurants with a high quality sub sandwich and why anyone in the area that goes to a chain with this gem is beyond me because they do an authentic Italian sub very well.

    This is an interesting place. It's a restaurant, liquor store, gaming, and grocery store all in…read moreone. The beef wasn't that great, the peppers tasted like they had been soaking in tomato sauce all day. Meat lacked flavor. BUT the beef isn't the reason for the trip. The breaded chicken sandwich is a banger! Seasoned to perfection. I've had it many times but this was the first time I had it fresh at the store and not delivered.

    So glad we happened to be in the area and tried this place for lunch. The restaurant has a very…read moreJapanese feel to it. You place your order on the tablet, there is just one guy working in there who makes the food and places it on the counter. The decor is simple and just right. The food is the best food ever! I had the rice paper wrap with tofu in it. I could only eat half as I was so full. The seasoning on the fries is so good.. and the cucumber salad was top notch. Even the drinks in the cooker area were very interesting that I had never seen before. It's very clear that this is a very well thought out restaurant. The only feedback I would give is to add a couple of options for vegan gluten free in the menu. My wrap had to be customized and communicating with the chef was a bit of a challenge due to language.

    Zenwich - Tasty Food, Lacking Warmth…read more My family and I recently visited Zenwich and tried a little bit of everything--two sandwiches and two rice bowls. Let's start with the good: the sandwiches were delicious, with standout bread that really elevated the meal. While I wouldn't go out of my way to make a special trip just for them, they were definitely enjoyable and well-executed. The rice bowls earned a solid 7.5 from my husband and son. Flavorful and filling, but maybe missing that little extra something to make them truly memorable. Where Zenwich unfortunately fell flat was the customer service. We visited around 5 PM on a Friday and there was only one person working. Not only were we not greeted when we walked in, but we stood at the counter for several minutes without even being acknowledged. I even saw another customer politely thank the staff member after asking for a napkin, and he didn't so much as look up in response. It left the whole experience feeling impersonal. If the service matched the quality of the food, this would've easily been a four-star visit. With just a bit more effort in the hospitality department, Zenwich could really shine.
