    Dining room
    Jeffrey K.

    Yep. This is exactly what I look for when I travel. A cozy little restaurant. When I walked in, the owner(?)/cook(?) was in the dining room chatting with a couple folks. Maybe just regular customers. Maybe family or friends. Either way, it was a pleasant environment to walk into after dealing with traffic. Rocky's delivers a quality Gyro with a smile. Though I didn't see it from the dining room, I'm sure the gyro meat was cut from a rotisserie on premesis, as opposed to the frozen gyro meat "planks" some other places offer. The meat was juicy and tender, smoky and flavorful. The handmade tzatziki sauce was very good, and obviously something they are proud of. They charge 63¢ for each additional cup, but it's worth the extra change. I ordered my old faithful onion rings as a side. That counts as a vegetable, right? They were good. Not great, but not bad at all. What really "did it" for me at Rocky's was the service. The lady who rang up my order and served the food was genuinely patient and friendly. The food portions were quite large, and the quality of the ingredients is impressive. I'm holding back on the fifth star, because the dining room could use some cleanup (ceiling tiles.) I won't hesitate to go back. Rock on, Rocky.

    Well I was hungry for gyros and didn't want to drive to Chicago. I've seen this place before but…read morenever ate here. Especially when going to selling plasma for blood in the evening. No time to cook for my dinner after I left. In regards to the food the salad was fresh and healthy. Gyros was okay good. I ordered the dinner because I was that hungry. What I didn't like was when they put the fries on top of the pita bread and I want to eat the pita bread in the gyros. Service was fast and friendly. This is more of a hole in the wall ambience but sometimes hole in the wall places serve good food and I took a chance. According to Yelp this was four stars. I see they also have Broasted chicken which I'll probably come back but I was already eating chicken for lunch and didn't want chicken again and I haven't had Gyros for a long time. That's why the three stars because I didn't like how they stacked French fries on top of pita bread and gyros. They gave more fries than they did of gyros meat which made the plate look so big. French Fries was just ok. They were the thin cut ones not the steak fries that I usually serve with Gyros. I also ordered chocolate cake for dessert and a fountain drink. The Chocolate cake was delicious too. Similar to Portillo Chocolate cake on the frosting or icing and cake texture. Not too dry and flaky. Will come back for either the New York strip steak dinner or there are famous roasted chicken but I'd like to try to stick dinner for $25 since it's a hole in the wall and that's some bougie steak restaurant.

    We come especially for their Greek Chicken and roasted potatoes- absolutely delicious!read more

    Johnnie's Beef has hands down the best Italian beef in Chicago! I wasn't sure what to expect. I…read morecame here on a Saturday around 1pm and the line wasn't too long. 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!

More of an Indian Curry Heat, nice balance I thought "Medium". I like a little heat ;not too much. Pickles and sauce make a difference and it all Comes together on the bun. Lettuce also. Curry season krinkle fries. Delicious Meal. $12-price point. Awesome design. Well done on the service & packaging also. Friendly & helpful service. I'd do think they need to get a Sun Block Blind for the outside window; as it was pretty warm inside with direct sun hitting. The location is not easy to find. So- look for the Melrose Park Large Water Tank on North Ave, and the Burlington Railroad Line runs above the Street there. It's on the EAST side ; Sign Says Advanced Auto, Sabrina's & Insomnia Cookies.

The facility itself was also really clean and well-maintained, which I always appreciate. That said... the food just didn't hit the way I expected. Everything was very salty, to the point where it kind of overpowered the flavor. I was excited to try it, but it ended up being a bit too much for my taste. Overall, great service and vibes, but I'd probably ask for lighter seasoning next time
