    It's been a long time since we've had food from this location. Called in a pickup order, and the service was friendly. The Buffalo chicken tenders are just as good as they always have been. Only hope they can keep up the good work and go back to the regular business hours as before.

    So this review isn't so much about the quality of food, or even about the quality of the establishment, but I wager that a fair amount of Yelpers will be familiar with the cozy sentiments and memories I have for this place. I spent hours upon hours every weekend throughout high school packed into corner booths with my friends after a marathon hang out session. The perfect cap to the night was some hot chicken fingers and a chocolate shake. 24-hour Greek Diners are my favorite hang outs, and there are plenty of them with higher quality food and better surroundings, but this one holds a special place in my heart and always will.

    Open 24 hours so it is great for the daytime or late at night after a round of drinking (which is usually how I end up here) There's all kinds of food on the menu but honestly there's only 2 things on the menu that I want...crave...every time.... The cream of lemon chicken rice is delicious. I'm a fan. The rice is sometimes a little mushy but I'm not picky when it comes to the rice in that soup as long as it isn't undercooked. Chicken fingers... It's all about the chicken fingers. Delicious!!! I get the regular ones (they have some doused in hot sauce) and the honey mustard dressing. It is about 10.00 for this order but you get a TON if chicken and lots of fries. I'm someone that loves food and I always think I can finish but there's so much there! It's on the Appetizer menu soo it's meant to share but I use it for the main course. Staff is interesting, they are either super friendly, run down and look beat tired or they have snappy attitude. Come here and watch the customers and you will see why. Sometimes they deal with some real turds.

    The guy who answered the phone was rude and when I showed up continued to be rude to me and argue when I was asking for my food.

    This place popped up out of nowhere in this area. Ever since they opened their doors for business…read morethere has been a constant stream of people going in and out. I said to myself, I need to check them out. So I did, over the summer, I actually liked their food that much that I kept returning. My review is only for the Chicago style tavern cut pizza. This place is easily on par with the best pizzerias in this area. They utilize high quality ingredients, unfortunately some pizzerias try to cut corners and skimp on the ingredients, hoping no one will notice, to make more money. Well, I quickly notice cheap ingredients in recipes and its quite apparent in the final product. They also have Neapolitan style pizza which made me very curious because they don't have a high heat wood or charcoal oven that is usually necessary to make blistering style pizza. I know there are tricks to achieve the blistering charred crust with a regular oven. Some will utilize a broiler to mimic a very hot oven. The first time I saw this trick was in a pizzeria in Barcelona and they made excellent Neapolitan style pizza in a regular oven. It came out perfect just like in a extremely hot oven. Well, this place cooks their Neapolitan style pizza like a regular pizza without any tricks. They actually have a very good recipe that tastes very good it just doesn't have that char that you would expect on a pizza of this style. Will I continue to order Neopolitan style pizza from them? Yes, if I am in the area, because no one else for miles makes this style of pizza. I have also had their a few of their pasta dishes and one was a stand out. It was the pasta with rapi broccoli and sausage which was delicious. Unfortunately, it was not a big seller and they decided to take it off the menu. Maybe I should have written this review sooner? Anyhow, I highly recommend their Chicago tavern cut pizza with excellent crust, sauce, cheese, and topping of your choice.

It's been over an hour and I'm now waiting in the car on a not so busy Tuesday night, for my husband to wait for our food, still...... it was pierogi, a sandwich and coleslaw. Not even a well done porterhouse takes this long . Not only that, the staff did not apologize, did not offer something for waiting an hour (not since our arrival, but since we ordered food). Don't come here in a hurry. We won't be back . A nice tip, pierogi shouldn't take an hour or look like they been swimming in a deep fryer that hasn't been cleaned for a month. Also put your fried foods in paper bags instead of styrofoam wrapped in cellophane to keep the oil spill from leaking out ! It Keeps things crisp, costs less, and is better for the environment.
