I've wanted to give this place a try since it opened a couple of months ago. I finally made it…read moretoday. I ordered a large (10") original chicken cheesesteak with white American cheese and no mushrooms. It was delicious! Perfect bread, plenty of filling and well seasoned. I also got their whizz tots, which have cheese in the batter. These are really more like hushpuppies or something. I want to like them but I didn't very much. They had a kinda weird flavor and were salty. I'll try a different kind or their fries next time. The place is cute and you can eat in or take out. Nothing crazy as far as that goes. The staff were super nice and the service was fast and efficient. I'll definitely be back to try more.

I visited Poor Boy because I was hungry, and in the mood to try something featured on their menu…read moreafter leaving a nearby park. The interest in visiting has always been there because I work nearby and ever since I tried their fries which were ordered by my coworker, I wanted to visit. Poor Boy sits along Roosevelt Rd in a high traffic area in Maywood. The parking lot itself is private with an acceptable number of parking spaces available. While pulling my vehicle into a parking space, I could not ignore the smell of the food looming in the air which built anticipation to enter. Once I entered, I stood in a line which gave me time to browse the menu as the customer ahead of me ordered. After the customer ordered, the employee took my order, giving off an enthusiastic vibe in the process. Here I was thinking that I would visit and order just fries, but nope! That changed once I saw the fish sandwich on the menu as an option. I was asked by the employee if I wanted the combo instead and I accepted! Now best believe I was not going to visit Poor Boy and not order those delicious fries that my coworker knows that I love. My order was completed in no more than 8 minutes, and I was well on my way. I opted out of dine-in, choosing to take my order to go because I did not want to be in the area long. We all know how terrible the traffic is in the area, and I had no interest in being out in it. Moreover, the restaurant appeared decently clean, and the atmosphere gave off a fast-food restaurant vibe. And inside, there were an acceptable number of tables with seats inside of the dining area. Upon getting inside of my vehicle I could not resist eating those fresh tasting fries before even driving out of the parking space, tehehe. It was a good thing that I had them in my lap eating them because they helped calm my nerves while being amongst impatient drivers along Roosevelt Rd. I swear! The elastic on my panties is wearing out from having to pull them up, just to deal with impatient drivers on the road. I must admit that food cures anything, but I do wish that the employees did not chunk extra un-bagged loose fries inside of the bag, burying my fish sandwich underneath in the process. I mean come on, sheesh! The first bite of the fish sandwich left me with a mouth full of fish, lettuce, tomato, and tartar sauce! However, the first words out of my mouth after swallowing that first bite was, "Mmm, that is good!". I have to say that the fish sandwich swayed the rating I had intended on giving Poor Boy because of those loose fries. I am glad that I finally considered visiting because it would have prolonged the chance of tasting their fish sandwich. I could very well re-visit and order from Poor Boy again because it sits in an area that I frequent. Whenever that visit depends on the craving of my tastebuds at the time.

We wanted some late night dinner and we searched yelp for something on the way that was open late…read moreand was good because most of the fast food places around the area had less than three stars. I'm really glad that we tried poor boy. We walked in past 11 PM and they had the lobby closed so you had to order through a speaker through like a glass window so there's no indoor or outdoor seating past a certain time. I'm guessing for safety. The menu is pretty big, but we scrolled through yelp beforehand just to see what we liked and kind of had an idea walking in so we ordered our food and I would say it took no more than 10 minutes to get it. We took it back to the hotel and the super that we ordered was massive. It's enough for two people to share. In my opinion. The bread was really fresh and the ingredients tasted fresh as well. I'm not sure if it was the condiments or maybe they put oil on the sandwich but I don't think it would last a second day because the bread was starting to get soggy, but it tasted really good. The size of the garlic fries was also great. We were able to share that and it tasted so garlic and delicious. It also had a seasoning I think it was Cajun but not sure because it wasn't spicy but that tasted good too. I wish I could've eaten both more fresh, but unfortunately, we had to take it back to the hotel But the fries and the sandwich still tasted great an hour later.

Juicy as I expected add that pepper in a bite and it was layered in flavor. Fries were hot and delicious. Service for my order was fast but I imagine depending on what you order being they cook fresh some items will be a minuet or two. Also I noticed police frequently eat there so it has to be good. As to parking I am a tad fussy as to spacing of parking space so I was not to thrilled about parking but that's me. Overall parking was available and the lot moved in out fast due to the speed of service. There are tables in the restaurant so you can sit in to eat. I enjoyed my experience and recommend Pete's in Oak Park. There is a second Pete's but have not stopped there. Which is funny I pass that Pete's 2 all the time when I am in the area.

Putting a whole salad on a hot dog takes what could have been a guilty fast food meal and makes it feel fresh and dare I say, healthy? The peppers were such a great kick and the I also appreciated that the relish was NOT sweet! Both a pickle spear and dill relish on the same dog? Yes ma'am! My friend who grew up here had the protip of getting a cup of cheese for the fries, why not? I just ate so many veggies! We also got an Italian beef with sweet peppers to split. I have had Italian beef before, so this wasn't a new flavor, but it's been awhile, and when I tell you I didn't remember the beef being so flavorful. I think next time I would get it with hot peppers, but the sweets weren't bad. Get a lemon ice if it's warm out, it was smooth and tart and a great finish to a great meal to round out my Chicago trip!

The menu is straight to the point and the restaurant itself is pretty small. You'll be standing eating inside or you can go outside where they have tables. The employees are incredibly efficient! The line moves quick and I recommend reviewing the menu ahead of time. For the food, I ordered the Italian beef, French fries and Italian ice. The first bite of the Italian beef was incredible. There was so much flavor and the peppers gave it a great kick. I ended up ordering another one. The fries were fresh and I would get again. The Italian ice was the star as well. It was so good! I can't even put it to words. The whole meal was perfect. I cannot wait to try it again. Thank you so much Johnnie's Beef!

Something's are just delicious in their own spicy way and that's exactly what I'm gonna say about…read morethat beef and sausage sandwich I had here the other day! So it was all about the beef and sausage sandwich for me and I will say I found the sausage to be spicier than the peppers themselves which was totally awesome as anything that's hot I'm game for, while it wasn't overly bearing hot it just had a good flavor to it with every component especially the beef itself which honestly I kinda wish I would have only gotten the beef as I just enjoyed it's flavor on that yummy bread with the sweet and the hot peppers! They had a tamale here too and it was ok it was 4 small pieces that were easy to share or had a good corn flavor to it while it was yummy It really reminded me of the ones that you can find on the corner of Rampart & Beverly in LA as the flavor was very similar to me. One of the biggest goodies here was that lemon ice like that was sooo yummy such a good lemon flavor all iced out it really hit the spot for being one of the best lemon ice I've ever had! Overall super yummy little spot doing it right so do yourself a favor and just go to Johnnie's you'll be happy you did!

Overall, great service and vibes, but I'd probably ask for lighter seasoning next time

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.
