We made the trip to the original Superdawg location for one final Chicago meal before heading to…read morethe airport, and we were glad we did. It is a little off the beaten path for visitors staying downtown, but the food and classic atmosphere made it worthwhile. My partner ordered the Superdawg and really liked it, especially the bun. The toppings made the bun wet and a little difficult to eat, but that did not stop him from enjoying it. I ordered the Supercheesie burger, and it was very good. The fries were also good.

Went there on a Sunday with my son. Their Sunday special is a jumbo grilled hot dog, fries and a…read moredrink for like $12. We both got the special. The hot dog was pretty good, fries (Crinkle cut) were also good. Place was pretty crowded. Overall, I'd eat there again, if I'm in the neighborhood, but you have a go with the special of the day, or it's expensive. The cons? Seating was very tight. We sat at a table of 4, and our backs were right on top of the person in back of us. Also, service was slow, considering it was just a hot dog, but like I said, it was busy. It's in a strip mall, so it's a little hard to find the first time.

They had a long line a little after 1 on a Friday afternoon. Took about 45 minutes to get to the order counter so would definitely call ahead although maybe the wait is part of the experience. I was talking to a group in front of me that recommended the Char Pup so ordered a Char Jumbo Dog and a double Pup. Also ordered a 1/3 pound Char Merkt cheddar Burger. For toppings, we got everything and grilled onions on the Red Hots and both were excellent! Some of the best we've had. The surprise was the Burger (which we saw was highly rated). It had that flame grilled tasty beef and we got it with everything and grilled onions also-simple. delicious Burger and just the right size. They also have Italian Beef as well Italian and Polish sausage. Service at the counter was friendly and quick-food was ready about 15 minutes after ordering. A Triple D favorite that lives up to the hype!

This place is listed in some lists as the best burger joint in Illinois. It's really solid. And the shakes are very good, too. They do crinkly fries, in case that's your jam. I enjoyed the flavor of the burger, although I do wish there were more pickles. :-) We had to wait for a table outside, and it was a little bit chilly, but overall I felt it was worth it.

It's a little confusing but basically order and go ahead and find a seat. Your name will be shouted out with a humorous message when your food is ready. The food was as expected for fast food. The bread was mediocre with plenty of beef. The cheese fries are always great! I loved the trays with the cup holders for easy carrying! My suggestion is for the staff to be a little friendlier and helpful.

As you walk up, you'd think that it was just an everyday 50's restaurant. But, it's far from…read morethalove going to Rand Red Hots. This place is a classic 50's style Chicago restaurant. I always order a chardog with the fries on the side. A chocolate cone as a treat, and sometimes a shake. They are always super nice and fast! The food is fresh and made to order. There's lots of seating inside and outside. And, it's always sparkling clean! CharDog-This hotdog is absolutely perfect! I savor every last bite of it. It's a Vienna Beef hotdog. So, it's the real deal. It's not the traditional Chicago dog. So, don't expect that. This hotdog is juicy, smokey, and charred with a bold beef flavor. Loaded with mustard, sports peppers, relish, and onions. On a nice plush bun. I personally get it without onions. And, it's heavenly! Chocolate Cone-If you're in the mood for a creamy, dreamy, and delicious cone. Then, make sure to get this! The chocolate is nutty and bold. I love this tasty treat. It brings me so much joy! I every now and then will treat myself to this family sized cone. And, I happily finish every last lick of this. So, next time you see Rand Red Hots. Make sure to stop here! You won't regret it!

A hankering for a Maxwell Street Polish brought me here. My cousin lives close by so the eatery was…read morea usual sight for me during my visit to Chicago. Let's get the positives out of the way. The prices here are very reasonable. I didn't experience sticker shock when I glanced at the menu. The restaurant pays tribute to the soda shops of 70 years ago. Oldies even pop through the sound system. I even heard "Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody" by Louis Prima. I did order a Maxwell Street Polish. I was amazed to discover that it was bursting with fresh cut fries just like another establishment called Gene & Jude's. The onions and the sweet peppers that came separately gave the Polish, which I believed was charred, a tangy touch. Regarding the fries, there was so much that I was done with the Polish first. I'm kicking myself because I thought I took a picture of the meal, but failed to do so. Apologies for that. Sadly, I must move on to the negative that prompted me to rate the place three stars. I didn't appreciate the attitude of the woman who took my order. On top of that, she apparently had a poor grasp of the English language. But still, if you have to have a nicely cooked tube steak, bring yourselves to Rand. I could envision myself returning so as long as the same woman isn't at the counter.

I've reviewed this place once before: Tokyo dog, Lechon burger, large fries, and triple berry smoothie is my go-to. I seriously don't exaggerate you need to come by before they close. I hope they find a place quickly because you know I sure will always come back.

It's inside a bowling Alley. The folks are really friendly and nice. The food is decent. The burger's are 5 oz. and made fresh. You get a nice brioche bun with fresh lettuce and tomatoes and cheese. The drink options aren't huge. It's not a place you linger or have a conversation. The onion rings are nice and crispy but for me I don't like the huge batter centric rings. I like a light batter with crunch so you can taste the onion. The fires are just okay. Most were a bit soggy for me.

It's substantial. It seems bigger than what you normally see (but I don't usually get K dogs, so take that with a grain of salt). It was like eating a hot dog and fries and melded together.
