Ocean perch was fried and seasoned perfectly. Wings cooked well and nicely seasoned with lemon pepper. I recommend the lemonade, it's comes in a variety of flavors. There is a small dinning area but mostly this is take out place. There is a parking lot so that is plus.

We recently tried The Original Chickies and had a mixed--but overall decent--experience…read more The staff was friendly and helpful, which definitely made a positive impression right away. The cheeseburger was okay, but the patty was smaller than expected and could have used a bit more seasoning to really stand out. It wasn't bad, just a little underwhelming compared to other spots. The loaded fries were a highlight--topped with cheese, Italian beef, and fresh jalapeños. They were flavorful and absolutely massive, easily a meal on their own. We also had the breaded steak sandwich, which was decent but could have used some jalapeños for extra flavor. Portion-wise, it was very generous and easily enough for two people to share. The chicken fingers were just okay--good size, but again, a bit more seasoning would have helped. The mushrooms were solid, and the onion rings were better than most--big and crispy--but there were quite a few broken pieces. We also tried the famous cannoli shake, which tasted exactly like you'd expect--a cannoli in liquid form. If you like cannolis, you'll probably enjoy it. Overall, not a bad spot with generous portions and friendly service, but some items--especially the burgers--could use a bit more flavor and a larger patty to really stand out.

Every year during Lent, people ask me where to find the best fish sandwich…read more After trying the Cod Sandwich at The Original Chickie's Beef, I've got my answer--Chickie's in Hillside, Illinois! Perfectly crispy cod with tartar sauce and that classic, no-frills flavor that just hits right. It's only around Fridays during Lent, which makes it even more of a must-have this time of year.

We ordered the 6 jumbo tenders for $14 & change. the Mac & cheese side and it was hot and tasty. The tenders were a good size, enough to share. The biscuit was dry and tasted old, not good at all. The chicken was cooked well and the batter was crunchy, but it was too salty for my taste and we did not like the krunch sauce. But overall, it was good chicken. The customer service was great; everyone was friendly and helpful as this was our first time there.

Found this place on the way back home from Oak Park after my first stop for an Italian beef (Poor…read moreBoy) had closed early for the night and I'm glad I did. Ariston makes a decent beef sandwich with soft bread, a nice serving of sliced beef, excellent tasting au jus and good giardineira. The medium fries and beef combo that comes with a canned drink was just under $15 which is a bit pricey but still not bad for the quality. Their crinkle cut fries are delicious and we're served crispy and piping hot. I luckily got in a little after 12:15am and was able to beat out the last minute rush as a good 5-6 cars pulled into the lot after I ordered. I don't think there would have been much of a wait even I had been a little later though as my order was ready in less than 5 mins. This made me a little worried but like I mentioned the food ended up being good. The staff were not necessarily friendly but I wouldn't characterize them as rude either. They just seemed to be really dialed in to get through all the orders which I appreciated. The interior is pretty lived in but it's not overly dirty or anything. They have an almost ridiculously extensive menu so I can't say much for the rest of the food but if a good beef and fries late at night is what you're looking for Ariston is a good option.

Obviously we had to come to Gene's & Jude's…read more Long before we planned our Chicago trip, I can remember seeing a feature about the place on TV. It was a no-brainer. The place is kind of out of the way, but hey, we had a car and some free time, so why not? I, of course, got the Hot Dog w/ Fries ("mustard, relish, onion, sport peppers") and yep it's a superior dog. I'm not sure if the copious fries really added anything to it, but the snap of the wiener and the tasty condiments added up to an extremely enjoyable experience. I can see why Gene's & Jude's is so highly regarded. It's a cool place (and super affordable, too).
