    Crispy Chicken Philly w/fries $9
    Parris J.

    Very disappointed they discontinued the 2 Turkey Burger special. I would eat one for dinner and the other for lunch. I guess it got too expensive but I just tried the Crispy Chicken Philly for the first time and it was excellent!

    Food was good service was quick. I'm not comparing it to babas but this place is better. Flavorful Fresh and quick. Fries are good. They have Philly cheese steak fries and a plethora of sandwiches and specials. If you're in Dolton stop by and enjoy

    Fixing my super chicken Philly.   The best in the south suburbs...

    I got a gymshoe sandwich from here. It was perfect! I just wish it had more meat on it, seemed a little skimpy. It was delish tho.

    My first time in this restaurant, and it was well worth the experience. I'm sure when all five…read morefloors are open in the warmer months it's going to be an even better time to be had. The bartender, Pochohantas made me a drink called "lavender Dream" and it was worth having 2, the crab cakes are wonderful, and the lamb chops were devine and well seasoned. I definitely recommend this fine dining experience and look forward to the next time. Also, it's owned by a lovely African American couple.

    I sat at the bar and ordered a smoked strawberry Hennessey sidecar. The smoked flavor made me feel…read morelike I was eating food. It wasn't for me. A different bartender offered to remake it without the smoked flavor and she made it way too sweet. I could not drink it. I was looking at the bar and they had no good wines even though I knew that there were wines near the door when you first come in. There were only cheap wines like Sutter homes at the bar. As I watched people's food get brought to the table, none of it looked good. I saw a steak that did not look good. It made me say that I would never want to eat at this establishment. The ambience was very nice for a date night, but I hope that they have something there that tastes good. Lastly, ladies, imagine trying to undo your clothing, squat down to use the restroom, wipe yourself and wash your hands while holding your purse. I tried to nicely let the manager know that he should get a hook put into the one restroom, to hold ladies' purses while they use the restroom. He acted like I was saying something wrong to him or hating on him. Any woman would agree that it's hard to use the restroom with your purse in your possession. Any BUSINESS with a public restroom should have a hook for this reason. He didn't give a heck about what I was saying. Now that beautiful establishment is about to give an inconvenience and irritation to most women that enters that restroom. And it's not even worth it.

You will be waiting, and yes, I was PISSED, but the service of Jamal made if better. As I was waiting all I saw was him coming back and forth dealing with angry people helping out the best he can to calm them down. The food was good, and I had to wait. Yes, I could've asked for a refund, but I'm sure nobody would've ordered my turkey sausage, mushroom, and garlic pizza so I just waited. I would suggest trying to get the pizza done closer to the pickup time we're allowed to pick. I would also suggest customers should have more patience especially with folks dealing with your food. JAMAL did the job, and folks left out with a smile...

I ordered a pizza at 1PM, 2 hrs before the Bears game. The got the order it was wrong. They said they'd remake it, and they were putting it in the oven so it would be ready when I return. Got there at 2 PM... I DIDN'T LEAVE UNTIL 330, AND NEVER GOT MY PIZZA! The place was packed, like we were literally on top of each other while they kept giving everybody random times of waiting... Meanwhile the staff is watching the game CHEERING! So I gave up and asked for my money back! The professionalism has alway lacked, but now it's ridiculous! Hire someone to run this because we deserve better treatment!!!
