Best Turkey burger in town! Perfect for patio season. The staffs are very friendly and they welcome you with a big smile always. They have amazing rotation of beers and ciders as well.

I wanted to start off 2026 with a great review. Me and my wife recently celebrated our 5-year anniversary together and I thought why don't we go somewhere nice in Chicago. I wasn't going to go to the Heart of the City! I wanted to come here after researching places worth dining in at. I was not disappointed at all. Parking maybe a bit of a challenge but this place is always busy and I can see why.Seeing how awesome their patio was, I'm sure this place is even more wild in the summer. The menu itself is very comprehensive me and my wife do enjoy is checking out their vegan menu . I personally tried their salmon burger and a boozy shake . Their food was absolutely delicious though it was a bit hard trying to find a seat to dine in at . I absolutely thought there was a second floor to this building but I was wrong. Restrooms are single stall . The food prices are not bad at all . The police are always here ordering food as well though I don't like that they're parked in front of the bus stop . Great selection of beer and other liquor as well . Since there wasn't any parking at all because the parking lot was full we did have to park a block or so away . In all honesty this place was incredible and worth my time driving out to Chicago for !

I hear Nicky's is a staple of the Beverly neighborhood and was excited to try it for myself. My family and I grabbed lunch on Tuesday afternoon. The. parking lot was mostly full, but it was not packed inside. A lot of people were getting orders to go and there was plenty of open seating. Having been my first time, I thought the placement of the menu could have been better since its written on the wall opposite of the registers. It's hard not being in the way of those trying to order. The menu overall gave a variety of options from burgers, sandwiches, salads, wings, and plenty more. I opted for the catfish entree which came with a side salad, garlic bread, and fries. My son ordered the asian chicken salad. After I ordered the food, I also noticed the gelato and shakes menu which features several boozy shake options. I ended up going back and ordering a italian ice boozy shake. The flavor that day was pineapple and the cashier also asked about additional add ins like strawberries which was appreciated since it was not mentioned on the menu. As a girl who loves anything Strawberry, I couldn't say no. The shake was so good even on a cold Chicago day. The wait for the food didn't take long. We only had a 10 minute ride to get home so the food was still hot by the time we got home. The portions of both meals were large enough for 2 meals. My son loved his salad especially the dressing, but felt like there was too many wonton crisps for his liking. I thought my catfish was tasty though had I known the catfish would be packaged on top of the fries, I would have asked for them to be packed separately since they got soggy and I wasn't able to enjoy most of them. There are plenty of other things on the menu I definitely want to go back to try, so I'll be back next time I'm in town.

Beef Sandwich (wet) with hot peppers combo
George W.

We were touring the Beverly and Morgan Park neighborhoods as part of the Open House Chicago weekend (it was October 18 and 19th), and this was one of the locations on the tour. We were hungry, so we stopped here for lunch. The location has been here for a while. It is an interesting mix in terms of architecture. When you order food, note the menu is on the wall as well as in paper. You can upgrade your soft drink to a beer for an additional $5, and they offer a "Combo" which includes a Large order of fries and a soft drink with their sandwiches. I ordered their Gyro Combo, and my wife had the Roast Beef Combo. The gyros tasted good, the tzatziki sauce was spicy, and it was all good. The roast beef was ordered wet instead of dry, with hot giardiniera. The sandwich was LARGE and filling. The hot giardiniera was delightfully spicy overall. The large fries were, well, fresh and LARGE. We couldn't finish the fries. The soft drink machine worked fine. You can find salt, pepper and other condiments and cups to the right of where you order. Seating is limited.

Vegan Gyro And The Vegan Ice Cream
Steve A.

Found out about this pretty hip restaurant in Beverly. It certainly has a lot more things we can eat than it seemed at first. Nicky's specializes in gyros and things like Italian beef sandwiches. Because of all this it was assumed there wouldn't be much on the meaty that wasn't meaty. They surprisingly have lots of great options thankfully. Cramped place is the only complaint about it. It's got some indoor seating but not a lot. There's a counter to sit at if there aren't any tables. Menu has a lot of options. Place orders at the front and they'll call it out to you. It's about $11 for an entree. Then you have to pay for sides. I got the Vegan Gyro. This comes with a vegan tzatziki along with onions and tomatoes. She had the Veggie Big Baby. This is a couple Beyond Burger patties topped with choice of cheese and the usual toppings like onions and tomatoes. Also there's vegan ice cream. It's $3 for a cup. The last time they had a butter pecan flavor that you couldn't tell it was only pretend. Great place to get gyros. It's pretty crowded usually and there's some long ass lines. There's plenty to get for vegans and vegetarians.

Cheese Burger and cheese fries
Mark M.

We stopped in for lunch and beat the rush. We quickly ordered cheese burgers and cheese fries and got our number to find a seat and wait for the food to come out. We thought the mustard sauce had a funky smell but we thought nothing of it and ate. About an hour after we ate we both did not feel well and became sick. Bummed I have to post this but this was our experience. Not sure if we will try again.

Philly cheesesteak and fries
Mimi u.

I was visiting Chicago and a friend took me to this place. Definitely a must try in Chicago. The menu is so massive, it was hard to decide what to get but I ended up going with a Philly cheesesteak with jalapeños which did not disappoint. Not only was it HUGE, it was by far the best I've had yet. The ambiance was nice and laid back. The service was awesome as well. Just go!

Lobster Roll is served Hot with Butter and chips plus a pickle spear.
Joyce G.

Update to my prior praise: it depends on who's ringing you up BECAUSE they don't sub fries for chips on the lobster roll as I've come to enjoy. Young lady was nice enough to ask Carlos after letting me know they probably charged me for the side (y'all I would notice a $4 upcharge for frozen fries not fresh cut) Either way, Carlos said with an empathetic NO that they don't sub. With that, I'm good. Everything is a la carte but those chips are not always fresh neither tasty alas maybe another visit another trip. Not today.

Hamburger
Cheri S.

I've gone here and eaten plenty of things I mostly enjoyed. This visit, was just not as great. I enjoy that their food comes out hot! I enjoy that the staff is always friendly. I don't always enjoy the food, or the drinks! The drinks are notably always not great. But the food is sometimes just meat and bread and lacks pizazz. This particular night there was a dj doing a raffle which was cool.

Latisha B.

Again I haven't visited this place in like 3 to 4 years since they moved to this location and since they moved to location the quality of the food has went down as you can see I ordered two Phillies although it's overpriced the price is not an issue the issue is when I'm served still bread and my order isn't prepared the way that I requested there was no extra mayo and no extra onions and green peppers the sandwich was dry as hell I will not be back they do not know how to read and comprehend what the customers asking for their order

Thai Chili Brussel Sprouts
Arielle J.

For the environment, this is the perfect place to have a bite to eat on a nice summer evening. The seating area - both inside and outside - are great options. A random game of bingo was happening while I was there adding to the restaurant's already fun atmosphere. I loved my Buffalo Chicken Empanadas. With the sauce to dip it in, it was a 10/10 dish. My guest loved the Fried Haddock Fish. My least favorite dish was the Thai Chili Brussel Sprouts. I didn't care for the texture and it was fried. I wouldn't order that again. Overall, I enjoyed my visit here. I definitely recommend stopping by.

I felt the need to review this restaurant because I almost passed on it based upon the average…read morestars. I read the previous reviews and realized it was mainly service issues and I realize that staff changes and sometimes either customer or staff member had a personality clash or could have had a bad day. I was in the area and we were hungry so I took a chance and decided to eat here. I'm so glad I did because I was pleased with the service and food. It definitely "hit the spot". When we walked in both the cashier and cook was friendly and pleasant to deal with. We were indecisive and the cashier was very accommodating. I had a special request and the cook happily complied. We ordered different variations of the fish fillets and chicken wings. The food was fresh and cooked to our preference. Everyone in my party was satisfied with their food. The others in my party ordered dessert but didn't eat it while we were together so I can't comment on the dessert. It is very rare that we sit down and eat in small carry out restaurants but we were hungry and far from home. The dining area was what you would expect from this type of establishment but it was clean and felt pretty safe (I say that very loosely these days). I will definitely be back again if I am ever in the area again.

I swear everytime I've gone into a fish place recently they've all been out of catfish, but luckily…read morenot today! This black owned business has above average standing room in the waiting area, two TVs and an ATM with a good amount of seats/benches. Seems like it might've been an old chinese food joint with a few tables, but they opted for a pure takeout experience (which is unfortunately the trend nowadays.) Since it was my first time I thought I'd try both the fish and chicken combo along with the dirty rice. The total came out to be $24 with the wait being about 15 minutes. The staff overall were nice.      After leaving the place and checking the food. I realized that the combo dinner didn't contain a roll and coleslaw like advertised which was kind of disappointing. It did have the fries though. The requested lemon pepper was there, but they also seasoned the chicken/catfish with garlic powder, salt and parsley which is fine. Everything was fried hard, but not dry which creates the perfect pleasurable crunch. The chicken and fish tasted better than a lot of the restaurants in the area with the fish having a lightness to the breading that's sorely missed. Some of the chicken was weirdly tough though as if it was slightly undercooked.      Speaking of misses we have to talk about the dirty rice. Dirty rice is one of those dishes that seems like it either is absolute perfection or an abomination with no in-between. This unfortunately falls into the latter with it not only looking boring with all brown notes, but the initial taste as well as texture being an off putting creamy rancid trip to flavor hell. After a just a few bites my stomach turned which does not bode well for this dish. I have no idea what went wrong here, but it seems like it may have been sitting out too long. Even the smell was a bit rancid. At least it has a good ratio of ground beef to rice which a lot of places skimp on. They also attempted to add in some vegetables like peppers although they are barely noticeable.       Overall Surf's up is a good spot with friendly staff, decent prices, but some issues with quality. My advice is to make sure the cooking temps are correct and consistent. Definitely make sure if food is sitting idle, that it is kept at the mandatory minimum of 140 degrees farenheit to avoid it going rancid so quickly. Also, double check the orders before sending them out or edit the menu if it is outdated.

The staff was wonderful, friendly and helpful, and the food was good hot and fresh and packaged up…read morewith care not just thrown in a container and bagged. Will definitely go back!

Every few months at least since they opened. And every time the food is always great. But also every time we go, the wait to get your order placed and actually receive your food seems to get worse. That's the big head scratch. The food is already made. Literally, the ribs, brisket, pork, potato salad, cornbread, greens etc. all are premade. There is no reason for a wait like you'll experience. It should be as simple as most, if not all the other bbq joints around. You place the order, you pay, someone plates it, you get it and sit down to eat. Where does a 30+ minute wait come from Sanders? If this is a marketing ploy like Garrett's Popcorn lines, it doesn't work. Thats the only complaint. Nothing about the food is bad. Nothing about the location is bad. Nothing about the owners and staff attitude is bad. Just the dang wait. Sanders, please correct this. Please. Or, give us a reason for a crazy long wait. We can't see any reason while there other than no one is plating as you order. Again, your food is already made, in the tubs, cabinets and warmers. This should be lightning quick. We hungry!

Honestly I could have probably left fully satisfied just with the cornbread. It's a big enough slice to share with a friend or eat indulgently alone. My friend shared the brisket nachos, it's a pretty large plate, plenty for 2 people honestly. There's something delightfully smoky about the chips alone but the sauces and meat really make it worth the $20. I also ordered the brisket sandwich and elote but haven't had the room to eat it yet. Yay leftovers! Took a bite of the elote and it's alright but a little too spicy for me. I always love BBQ but hate the price. But I get it. With the price of meat when you get it, if you get it... Plus the price of the labor no one thinks about that goes into it. It's worth the money tbh. I'd come back!
