    Came here for a quick bite and I quickly regretted it. The food was garbage. As a person who really enjoys food, it is VERY RARE that I don't finish what I ordered. Took 2 bites of my bland Italian beef, 1 fry and my kid couldn't eat more than a bite and a half of his cheese burger. At least the coke was cold and the workers were friendly. Oh and there peppers were a bit suspicious

    Overcooked and frugal fish
    Debbie K.

    Store on Larkin. Bought fish fry dinner and received two way overcooked pieces of perch: one the size of two bites. Almost broke my tooth it was so hard. Super small fry. If you can't do fish right, don't offer it. Had to go to Jewel grocery nearby to get something else for dinner. Total waste of money. Sad part, even a ten year old could see that wasn't fit to serve. FAIL

    Old fries
    Mcintodh L.

    The prices have increased. When you order cheese fries they have the audacity to put hot cheese on old fries. I was not there to see the order . My husband picked up the order and when got back . You can clearly taste the old fries and new cheese. I don't want to drive back there. Then they put sport peppers on a beef. When they clearly have the other peppers and they are free. They don't give you the free peppers they give you hot dog peppers and charge you.

    Italian beef

    Tried this for the 1st time. Sadly it wasn't that great. The flavor of the beef is great but the beef is inconsistent in the way it's sliced. Some very thin/shaved (which I love) but some sliced very thick and rubbery. I hate getting that snap back when biting into a beef sandwich cuz beef too thick! Would try again cuz of flavor but I'd suggest paying closer attention to how beef gets sliced before serving.

    Receipt
    Michelle N.

    This is the second time I've come to this restaurant and not got what I've ordered and paid for. I went six months ago and they screwed up my order then, thought I'd give a second try. Foolish me. I clearly ordered mozzarella sticks and got onion rings. If you look at the receipt no we're does it list onion rings! This is the last time I will go to this location. I'll stick to the South Elgin location, they've never screwed up my order.

    Friendly drive through worker

    Got stuck at the Chevy dealer longer than expected. Walked over for a hot dog and fry…read more First thing,sign at entry door says$11.50 for 2dog special,but when you get to register small sign says $12.50. WTF ? Idiot taken orders is more interested in his phone than taken the order right. Had to repeat my order 3 times,which made me question if it will be right. Fries were correct,but the dogs were GROSS, seemed as if they had been in the water way too long, mushy ! The pickle spear was so small,I just had to laugh. This place is a joke !!! When you walk in the front door,you can enjoy the smell of sewer, as it is disgusting,since you're there to eat. Save your money,go somewhere else,as you can see from my prior posts,nothing has changed in a year. What is the owner doing or thinking allowing the business to operate like this and under these conditions. I won't ever return to this location , don't care what the specials are ! Hope this business closes soon !!

We all enjoyed what we ordered...I had the Greek salad with gyro meat (so so good - perfect balance of greens, veggies, and meat) , French fries w/cheese dip (so so good...like fried perfectly and crispy on the outside...I barely ate my cheese dip). Whenever I'm in the area, I'll return! And I loved all the Chicago sports memorabilia!

    I work in the area and I'd been going to Wee-Dee's a couple times a month for the past 6-7 years…read more Every day it was the same, kinda cranky, old dude in a wheelchair at the register and every day it was really good Chicago Dogs or gyros or burgers. Over the past few months, in effort to save some money, I've stopped going out for lunch everywhere, but yesterday (3/18/26) I had a hankerin' for a good Chicago Dog, and their 2-dog combo meal has always been a great deal. I noticed right away that the cranky, old dude wasn't there. I got the dogs, but it was a plain bun -- no poppyseeds. It was dull, kinda dry, run-of-the-mill pickle relish. It was one thin slice of tomato on each. Not even a hint of celery salt. There was a pickle spear, some chopped onion, some mustard, but they seemed bored. It was as though the whole sandwich didn't want to be there. If you're a Chicago area dog stand -- unless you're serving up your own, special-recipe phenoma-dog -- the canon is The Chicago Dog: steamed poppyseed bun, steamed Vienna Beef frank, yellow mustard, chopped white onion, neon-green picallili relish, dill pickle spear, tomato wedges, sport peppers, and celery salt. When you ask the customer if they want it with "everything," THAT SPECIFIC LIST is what they expect. It's a very distinct flavor combination. Half-stepping or skimping on the ingredients is instantly noticeable -- to the eyes as well as the taste buds. On my sad way out the door I asked the young dude behind the cash register if the place is under new ownership. He confirmed that it is, since October. I asked him if he's the owner, but he said he is not. I saw no sense in belaboring my point to the paid help, so I left to belabor here where I hope Wee-Dee's new owner will see it. Dear Wee-Dee's Unlike the burger -- which is just another burger, or a gyros sandwich -- which is just another gyros sandwich, The Chicago Dog is a unique, ingredient-specific creation. It is NOT just another hot dog ...which is what you're serving, now. Wee-Dee's, please fix your Chicago Dog! Thank you.

Stopped in for dinner with my wife. I got the cheeseburger special (fries and a drink). I will say it was good, but a bit heavy on the added mustard. Most places go heavier on the ketchup side, but this was mustard heavy. Fries were good. Wife got the Greek chicken. She never finishes her meal so I always get to comment on both dishes. I have to say the Greek chicken was outstanding. Really flavorful. I had her wing, leg and part of the breast. The rice was tender and yummy. Small piece of garlic bread but was also good. Greek potatoes were really good too. I made a mistake. I should have ordered what she had. It was that good. I wish I took a photo, but the food was devoured so quickly. The service was long, but Thats to be expected when you order chicken dishes. Only two other people in the restaurant and both had the Greek chicken as well. I want to go back, but it's too far unless I decide to take on another play in the area. Workers in the restaurant were very nice and friendly. They thanked us for dining with them. I like that.

He said the Chi dog was the best chi dog he's ever tasted and that the celery salt on the bun was a nice touch. The kids share some chicken nuggets and fries.

There is a Ms. PacMan / Galaga game and a toy locker claw machine. Some yard games: Huge Jenga and two connect 4. There is a outdoor single swing anchored to the ceiling and two TV's on the wall. The food was served in dog bowls lined with paper. It was hard to eat the sandwiches because the bread was cut all the way through. I would have loved for them to cut the sandwich in half. It was a little awkward to eat. The Philly Steak sandwich was good but was not very full, it could have used more meat. The Pulled Pork Sandwich was good but would have been better with a little more meat. The Hot Motz were great - 8 for $7.99 which is a great price! I wanted to try the Poppin Pierogi but they did not have any... hopefully next time. I recommend giving this place a try. Especially if you have a dog and kids and are traveling or passing through the area during meal time! There was a beautiful sweet golden retriever chilling out in the fake grass (people watching - so cute) We will be back again and will most likely order burgers. #kidfriendly #dogfriendly
