    loaded hot dog minus relish and well done fries
    Tanya C.

    yelp reviews never let us down and neither did Jacky's ! based on recommendations, we enjoyed the big baby , two loaded all beef hotdogs, the hottest freshest fries ever and a strawberry shake! nothing lacking in this fast friendly service where they are happy to ensure your order comes out just as requested. our well done fries were hot and crisp ! we decided to dine in at the small counter service overlooking the cooking area. everything looks clean and efficient. various workers were in and out and each asked how we enjoyed our meal, it was obvious they take pride in the product they produce. i didn't ask, but did not see restroom facilities??

    Double Big Baby and a Side of Onion Rings
    Eduardo R.

    I have been coming here for the better part of 3 years and the food has never disappointed me. If you like the McDonald's fries then you will fall in love with these fries. Completely identical to them, aside from being cheaper and a much bigger quantity, they are crispy and much more fresher! The ambience of this establishment is great, eat at your own pace and you aren't rushed to get out unlike other small restaurants. The staff are very respectful and so are the customers that come through the door. Overall amazing experience every time I come here. HOWEVER, the one thing I absolutely don't like is the amount of people that don't come here. Such an amazing restaurant deserves more clients coming through the door during the early afternoon hours, it's never too early to eat a good burger!

    Father's Day with the crew at Jacky's!
    Jim M.

    When my family asked where I wanted to eat on Father's Day, guess where we went? Jacky's of course!!!! Big Babies, well done fries, and orange drink all around!! Except my daughter. She doesn't do burgers, so it was a Pizza Puff, well done fries and an orange drink for her!! Rave reviews from all!!! Thank you Jacky's for a great Father's Day meal with the family.

    Hot dog with tasty toppings, no ketchup needed.

My sister worked here in the 1970s when they wore hideous yellow & brown uniforms and "mod" hats that looked poofy on top like a chef hat with a brim. It had been a few minutes since my prior meal, so I was hungry like the wolf in that song. Leg & thigh had great flavor and texture. It was a pleasure to bite them. Biscuit didn't need butter. I gave away the cookie, which was "really good," so I won't make that mistake again. Carbs blah blah blah, but mashed potatoes & gravy were good but probably not real but I don't care-- I was hungry and the $5 fillup box did the trick. That was a 3-but sentence. In the 70s they had tall display coolers filled with a wide variety of tall dessert cups. Chocolate pudding on a crumb base with a layer of whipped cream on top. I can't recall the other flavors but this was a multi-level display cooler so I think they offered a wide variety. ("Wide" paragraph following "but" sentence...) They have a drive-thru too. The staff service was polite and accurate. Bathroom was clean. Air-dryer though. Cheap brown paper towels are more hygenic. They need one more person behind the counter to make the non-eating part of the experience a little better. The cashier had to help the kitchen with packing so that could be fixed with a third person from 11-3 and 4-7. You can get grannies to take 4 hour shifts. I know it's a chain, but taste is the reason they've been around since 1952. That's 67 years as of July 2019. Inflation hit the bucket of chicken hard so you don't see people carrying them around, but that needs to be fixed at the corporate level. That bucket is free mobile billboard advertising, so get the price down. I wish they would go back to using the giant bucket signs.

Perfect menu, ridiculously large and well made deli sandwiches and a store full of Italian food staples and bakery items! Couple of minor downsides to be aware of - no indoor seating and somewhat limited outdoor / shaded area. Also, I had The Roc sandwich, wasn't cut all through and the crappy plastic knife broke while trying to slice. Great problem to have, the sandwiches are pretty large but pretty basic to give you a good cut. In fact, in reviewing my pics the cutting procedure took so much focus after unwrapping my sandwich, I quit taking pics! Haha All minor stuff, this is a great spot for lunch... highly recommend!

The variety is incredible. This is Home with the big baby burger and if you've never tried one order it and thank me later, I had that one night and then last night I had the gyro platter. Oh my God, the portions are huge ended up, taking it back to the hotel and snacking on it later it comes with fries and there were so much food. I never even got to them on the first round of eating it will be back every time I'm in town for work. Did I mention the prices are extremely cheap and the service was really fast. It's clean and quiet and theyve got a couple TVs but more can you ask for.

    ONE LAST NUGGET…read more Always double-check your bag from Wendy's, in case there's a surprise nuggie at the bottom. It didn't take long after starting my new job to find the nearest distributor of chocolate Frosties. I hit up this location in Garfield Ridge for lunch every other week and the experiences have been generally pleasant, even though once they forgot a straw and on a separate visit they gave me no sauce :( You're greeted with a quartet of self-order kiosks when you walk in, but you can still place an order with a human being. I like the counter area they have by the windows facing Archer Ave. No ketchup pumps, which makes me think their condiments are behind the counter under lock & key. I recently tried the ghost pepper ranch chicken sandwich ($11 for a combo) and to their credit, it was pretty damn hot. Halfway through eating, I started seeing little horizontal lines which made me wonder if I was hallucinating or just needed new contacts. I made ample use of their Coke freestyle machine, regardless. Saucy nuggs are great, you can get them standalone or as part of a 10pc combo ($10)--I recommend the spicy honey bbq, garlic parm, and buffalo. The $5 Biggie Bag is still the best deal in town, a Jr bacon cheese with fries, 4pc nuggets and drink for a crazy low price. * TL;DR * This is a solid Wendy's with a clean dining room and quick drive-thru. I've tried to avoid going out to lunch more than once a week, and when I do, I usually only drop $5.54 (the exact cost of a Biggie Bag + tax). You can find some nice deals online, like a free 10pc nuggets when you sign up for Wendy's rewards, or $2 off a premium combo. Tip: trying to turn left onto Archer is tricky, and though you could get lucky with the flow of cars, you're much better off exiting onto Laramie and using the traffic signal.

I had dozens back then. Today? Just two + fries. Service was disengaged. Typical for Chi-town. The "youth" ya'know, lol. The fries aren't nearly as good as I remember, but the burger slaps (still). My caloric intake discipline wouldn't allow me to get a thick vanilla milkshake even though I wanted one - badly, lol. Maybe will get one tomorrow, lol. Too expensive for them little jokers though. I can get a full size burger in DC for the price of a mini slider here. Was worth the experience nevertheless since the burger was delicious. Spent $8.68. Decent deal because I was full. Sure wish they would put a White Castle in Waldorf maybe.

    MIDDLING EFFORT The…read moreWhite Castle across the street from Midway Airport is totally mediocre. Sitting at the intersection of W 63rd St and Cicero Ave, this fast food chain is directly in the landing path of Southwest Airlines. This is great news for plane watchers but bad news for anyone trying to have a normal conversation. First off, why is this drive thru window so high up? I'm not in a friggin Hummer! Sitting in a typical sedan, I've had to reach up & lean out to grab the food they're handing me with a lot more effort than normal. I'm fairly tall so shorter folks must have a real tough time. I usually get the #1 combo ($9.29) with jalapeno cheese that has a decent kick to it. Sometimes I'll get a 6pc chicken rings but last visit they were sketch AF....I think they put the unused chicken parts in a blender, hit 'pulverize', and form the pieces into circles before breading and frying. And was that a beak I saw? The guy at the drive-thru has been friendly both visits but noise from jets landing nearby makes it tough to place an order. If this happens, you can either 1) shout over the sound of the incoming jumbo jets, or 2) wait a few seconds until the plane passes by. There's two types of people in the world, and this determines which kind you are: the screamy kind or the patient kind. * TL;DR * This WC isn't great, but then again, are any of them? (no, not really) I like White Castle's crinkle cut fries and they have fun trivia on the sides of the boxes the sliders come in. However, I don't care much for this location due to the noise pollution and difficulty getting into the parking lot, which is only accessible via westbound 63rd St or northbound Cicero Ave. Could be worse.
