    This will probably be my last visit to this location. For the second time in a row I received an order of cole slaw that was literally half full if that. Not only that but I ordered a chicken club but received a regular chicken sandwich. This plus a small fry was about $18. I know you have a lot of young kids working at your restaurant and mistakes happen but this isn't right. The cole slaw alone shouldn't be filled half way it was literally a few bites. Somebody must not be checking orders as I paid for the chicken club but did not receive one. Next time I will go to a different location.

    I had to try this classic destination while visiting Chicago. I tried the corn dog, onion rings, pretzel bites and burger (not pictured). All the food was typical of a fast food joint. It was served hot, and the portion sizes were large. We ordered it for takeout so I can't speak to the service or ambiance.

    After one bite this is what I get

    There ice cream for the mixer was like soup I took one bite and it was already melted we got the flavor of the day and it melted on the guys hand

    This review is strictly for Culver's food and not the specific location. I have a sort of love/ hate relationship with Culver's food. I have had Culver's food a plenty of times in the past and all that time a couple of things have been consistent. Their burgers are boring or as someone would say these days, "just meh!" But their fried fish, cheese curds (decent) and frozen custard are good. I recently had their double bacon cheeseburger and it was just average in taste. And I had asked for it without mayo, which was confirmed while the order was passed on to the kitchen, but when I came home with burger, it was lathered in the damn mayo. I hate mayo on burgers. It does not belong on it, in my opinion. It ruins the taste of the burgers. The burgers aren't even half as good as how they advertise them on their t.v. commercials (Just a thought. I know what they show is not how exactly it is usually). My main reason of going to Culver's is for their frozen custard. I like to try some of their varieties in the form of a concrete, sundae or a milkshake. The only reason why I had their burger recently was because I had coupon with a good deal. The prices aren't bad and the service at this location is good. I'd only go again for their frozen custard and maybe their fried fish. Two and a half-stars like place for me. They try to be better than average but are just an average, family friendly fast food place (in terms of their food, I mean).

    No ketchup cups two nights out of three.

    Two nights out of three, no ketchup cups. Wow, fries come with most meals. The first night, a young man behind the counter tried to give me a bunch of those tiny ketchup packets that are hard to open rather than make sure the supplies are adequate. The second night, I didn't feel like they wanted to be bothered. The food was okay, better than McDonald's, if that's your measuring stick.

    Like many other Culver's, the staff here is quite different - and better - than similar places. They deliver your food and actually ask if you need anything else. The Double Butterburger Deluxe is an especially good sandwich and reasonable at about $6.50.

    With so many (better than average) Mediterranean options around town, it's really hard to decide…read morewhich one should be considered good vs. average vs. bad. Nikkos offers a wide variety of food, not just Greek. Burgers, dogs, Italian beef, etc. I know from experience both Mediterranean and Middle Eastern places generally offer very good burgers, but I haven't personally tried Nikkos'. I must try them soon. What I *have* tried are Italian beef, gyro, and chicken, both in plate and sandwich forms. Gyro and chicken dishes did not disappoint. Their chicken kebab plate is my daughter's new go-to Greek dish, and I can personally attest to their gyro and tzatziki sauce. Super legit. Also, French fries are good. I've tried their Italian beef now twice, but both times I thought they didn't do a very good job getting rid of beef taint. Gravy was okay; nothing special. I'd personally put them right at the same level as Portillo's. It's got a very old-school diner feel to the place. Menus are displayed with pictures over the counter, making it super easy to read and order. As far as friendliness of the cashier goes, I'd rate them 3 of 5. I was greeted and tended by a very nice lady once, but it was two grumpy dudes the other time who were all business and no play. Nothing wrong with their work ethics or order accuracy or anything. They were just unpleasant. Just so I'm clear, these encounters don't usually deter my star ratings. More so an FYI. All in all, I'm happy with my Greek plates at Nikkos. I'll probably go back to try rest of the other menu items like shish kebab or even a burger.

I highly recommend the Greek potatoes as a side. They're so lemon-y and buttery, and come as a large portion. I also really love the chicken kebab sandwich and I'm always so surprised how quickly they put it all together. The fresh pita bread tears apart in beautiful layers, the vegetables are rich with flavor, and the chicken is so juicy and well seasoned. I literally can't help but finish my entire plate when I order from here. The kebab sandwich also comes with a generous service of Tzatziki which balances out all of the rich grilled flavors. This is an area gem and I wish I had known about it earlier!

A side of fries and a drink. Drinks are self-serve from the fountain, so I filled my cup and grabbed a table. Only a few minutes later, I had my order. The steak was great.. Plenty of cheese and onion, and on a nice, chewy roll. Look, it's a cheesesteak. Just a darned good, basic cheesesteak. I am not going to attempt to wax poetic about some time in Philly when such and such happened before a Dead Milkmen show, or something. The fries were solid as well. Medium cut and cooked to have a good mix of crispy fries mixed in. They also have a house-made hot sauce that is pretty darned good on the sandwich. If you want an unpretentious meal and are short on time, this is a great option. Good food, fast service and reasonably priced. Give them a try. If you're not a snob, you're gonna like it.

    When I think of Franks For The Memories, I think of some of the best wings I've ever had. This was…read morethe first place where I truly experienced top tier wings, and funny enough, it all started with one random wing back in high school. I remember being at lunch one day when I ran into one of my friend's sisters and some of her friends. They had wings, and since the last time I checked our school definitely didn't sell wings, I jokingly asked what they were eating. They told me where they were from and let me try one. After I finished that wing, I immediately wanted another. I couldn't just ask for one, so instead I basically interrogated them. What's the name of the place? Where is it? How far away? To my surprise, Franks was only about 10 minutes away. The funny part is I didn't actually get to truly experience Franks until after high school. I had been a fan of wings for years, but I didn't really know what a great wing was yet. Looking back, I didn't realize how lucky I was that Franks was one of my first introductions to genuinely great wings. Fast forward about 15 years and I'm still eating them. I usually get Franks every two or three months, and recently I realized it had been a while. My order almost never changes. Two pounds of mild and two pounds of medium. I always order them to go, and even after the ride home, they still taste fresh and juicy. I usually start with the medium, and that first bite always reminds me why I keep coming back. You bite into tender, juicy meat followed by that crisp exterior and Buffalo sauce. Everything complements each other perfectly. You have tender chicken, crunch on the outside and sauce covering the entire wing. These aren't wings where you get one great bite followed by a section with barely any sauce. They are saucy, and I mean saucy. The medium sauce is probably my favorite. It has that peppery Buffalo flavor with a noticeable acidic tang and enough heat to make itself known. The acidity gives it a sharp Buffalo bite while the pepper and heat follow right behind it. Mix that with the juicy chicken and crispy exterior and it's a beautiful combination. Then you have the mild. The mild has a similar flavor, but the buttery taste comes through more. It's smoother and richer without losing what makes the sauce good. Sometimes the mild and medium sauces mix together, and those might be some of the best bites. You get the buttery richness from the mild mixed with the peppery, acidic kick and heat from the medium. It just works. That's what I love about these wings. They look simple. You might look at them and think you know exactly what you're about to get. Then you bite into one and realize there is nothing simple about the flavor. When I eat these wings, I'm genuinely at peace. I'll go out with cousins or friends, talk, joke around and enjoy the food together. With Franks, it doesn't matter. Eating these wings is an experience on its own. Once I start, I'm in my own little world enjoying every bite. The only bad part is knowing eventually I'm going to run out. I always make sure I have some left for the next day. If something tastes this good, why experience it only once when I can wake up knowing I still have Franks waiting for me? What might impress me most is the consistency. I've been eating these wings for around 15 years, and whether I think back five years, 10 years or 15 years, I know what I'm getting when I order Franks. I honestly can't remember a time when I finished their wings and walked away disappointed. After all these years, they still stand tall. They're juicy, tender, crispy, loaded with sauce and packed with flavor. The medium brings that peppery heat and acidic tang, while the mild brings that buttery richness. Are they the best wings I've ever had? They might be. These wings don't kid around.

Their hot dogs are great. All in all one of the better hot dog joints but their wings didn't live up to the hype.

From the outside of the building you can't really tell what is inside. The windows are all darkened and the entrance is set off from the dining side. But once inside, I weaved through the maze of tables to get to a booth on the other side. This was the quintessential family diner. Not fancy by any means, just an atmosphere where having a conversation with another table (which I did) is not unusual or extraordinary. The food was hot. The ham and cheese omelette was nothing special, it was a rolled omelette which I appreciate. The hash browns were fresh. When I say fresh, I suspect they actually shredded the potatoes that morning. They didn't have that frozen from a bag flavor. The one thing I wish they did, was shrink the menu. Choice fatigue made me choose my own standby this time. This menu is huge, I'd say it gives Cheesecake Factory a run for the money with menu size. Overall though, this is a place that you could easily make "your place" for local food spots.

I'm not sure why this keeps happening. Mauri's is a family-owned, family-friendly restaurant that serves tasty breakfast/ lunch fare. They have omelets, skillets, pancakes, waffles, Mexican breakfast dishes, sandwiches, and more. Mauri's is a community staple and popular among the locals. They have a nice variety on their menu, and the pricing is reasonable. The restaurant is inviting and has a good ambiance. In the past, I had tried a couple of different varieties of their omelets, which were good, especially the Acapulco omelet and Azucena omelet. On my recent visit, I ordered their Country Chicken Skillet that had chicken, chorizo, onions, mushrooms, and green peppers mixed in with hash browns and topped with cheddar cheese and two eggs cooked your way. I also asked for tomatoes in my skillet, which was a $1 upcharge. My wife ordered the Western skillet that had ham, onions, tomatoes, and peppers mixed in with hash browns and topped with cheese and two eggs. We had a choice of toast or pancakes, and we both got pancakes. Mauri's offers a choice of regular pancakes or pumpkin pancakes (no upcharge), and we chose pumpkin pancakes. For my little guy, we ordered a kids' meal that had one egg scrambled, hash brown, sausage, and wheat toast with a side of butter and jam. We also ordered a Belgian waffle with cinnamon apples and pecans. Additionally, I had a hazelnut iced coffee, and my wife had an iced caramel cappuccino. Overall, the food and beverages were good in taste. We like our dishes. Initially, in my skillet dish, the hash browns were burnt, and the pumpkin pancakes were a bit overcooked. Thus, I requested my dish to be redone. One of the staff members promptly provided the desired response and service, and my new order was ready shortly. After re-cooking, my dish tasted delicious. It was exactly as I wanted it to be. I didn't ask for a redo in the pancakes. They were okay. I also like the Belgian Waffle a lot. The pecans were stuffed in the waffle, which was great, and there were plenty of semi-big pieces of cinnamon apples on the top. My hazelnut iced coffee was refreshingly delicious. I liked the use of flavored ice in my drink. We received good, friendly service (same as in the past). We like coming here occasionally and supporting the local business. Mauri's is a good place to get delicious breakfast/ lunch meal. It's definitely worth checking out if you haven't been here before.
