    the gym shoe.
    Edward P.

    loved the gym shoe. the owner moe is a very nice guy too. i highly recommend walking in here and getting the gym shoe. it's 2 meals. $16.99 and comes with a can of pop. fries too. you won't need the fries tho, this thing was so big it came in a half sized catering tray. filled with cheese, fried peppers & onions, corned beef, chopped steak, and gyro meat. also came with two sides of tzatziki sauce. they just need to get the bathrooms back up and running. i'll definitely be back.

    The fried chicken and mild sauce served here are simply the best in the area. The gym shoes are also worth trying. You can always count on the food being fresh and hot, no matter what time of day you stop by.

    30. Crispy Gym Shoe (This joker is humongous and yes it took up an entire tin pan)
    Ramone P.

    This is my new go to greasy spoon and I mean that in the most respectful way. It's actually a term of endearment. It's the word we use to describe a variety of delicious fried foods but trust me that sell a lot more than just fried foods. It sells the comfort food that I remember having growing up in the city. Food items you don't often find in the suburbs. The menu is stupid long. There is so much to choose from. You can get anything from a hot dog or pizza puff to gym shoe sandwich or Italian beef. Don't sleep on their fish and chicken combo. You can get a Maxwell Polish or a Super Taco.Where do you find gyros nachos? You can even keep it simple and get a grilled cheese sandwich. Many things probably sound foreign to many lifetime Suburbanites because you rarely find these choices out here. There are so many things on the menu I can't name them all. Also the ambiance is pretty cool. Not a formal dining room by a long shot. It's what you would expect in a place that sells this kind of food sort of small but the decor and theme is what makes it cool. I always appreciate when I'm waiting for a carry out order that there is something on the walls or in the restaurant to capture my attention so I don't have to be on my phone needlessly. The staff is always pretty cool. I can appreciate the friendliness and casual professionalism especially when my girl is working the register. Warning ordering off of here or any other delivery apps cost more, either call it in or wall in. Lastly, I dropped one star because the catfish filets seemed to have changed from when first started purchasing it. I grew up on catfish so I can tell the difference. It's a whole different texture. I still buy it and enjoy it just not as much as the original. I stopped going to the restaurant across the parking lot just for the fish. Enough from me, you check it out and you be the judge.

    Wtf.I'm not gona talk too much shit but why was there a soggy mangled wing under the fresh crispy wings?? See photo. This made me sick to my stomach and I couldn't eat anymore after. Wings- the one I tried was crispy and had a good flavor to it. Beef - chewy and not a "beef" beef Fish sandwich - just a frozen patty Burger - decent Fries - decent. Only went there cuz it was halal. I duno if what I got was halal but. Then again, it prolly wasn't n that's why it was wack!! Staff was nice though Place has potential but needs some extra effort and a new chef! Wamp!

    Nasty Oily catfish with little to no taste will never try again.

    Chicken is great but the catfish was really nasty. Tasted oily and mushy had little to no taste. Will only buy chicken here from now on.

    Gross. Place is dirty and food is trash. I was so sad we spent money here. Go to Kostas or Chubbys. Not worth it here at all.

    Jbeez is UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT and I'm so glad we decided to check them out again after our visit…read moreover a year ago. They decorated the dining area very nice. Tables are best, tidy and the place is very clean. The Pakistani food is delicious, made fresh daily and they offer halal meat entrees. The menu has expanded quite a bit and offers dishes for every palette from non spicy to spicy both vegetarian and various meats. They had a huge catering order of over 50 Nihari containers that smelled and looked really good! (I'll have to try that next time too!). The Mediterranean Grill items provide hummus, salad and rice accompaniments! I ordered the boneless chicken breast shish kabab which had a generous amount of meat. We also ordered the chicken tikka which came with 4 pcs (2 leg quarters). All the meat had nice seasonings, flavor and were not overly spiced. We ordered 2 lacha paratha's to accompany all the chicken that were really tasty. Even though we were full, we couldn't stop eating the rest of the paratha's! The chai and kheer was spot on and not to be missed! We plan on returning on a weekend to try their puri halwa. The owners are very friendly and make sure you are fully satisfied and happy with your meals. It's a great place for real authentic Desi food!

    What a hidden gem in an unassuming strip mall! We'd been wanting to visit here for a while, and…read morefinally made the trip after a long Saturday out and about. It was empty when it arrived, but filled up on our way out, telling me it's a popular place for the younger crowd. Either way, you know you're in for a good meal when you see the huge doner rotisserie spinning. The owner (at least I'm pretty sure he was the owner) helpfully walked us through their sauce selection and even offered my MIL some sauce samples. She ended up getting the hot dog with veggies, while my wife and I got sandwich combos (17 for the sandwich + 3.50 for fries and a drink). I was going to share my combo with my preschooler since they don't have a kids meal, but the owner thoughtfully offered some fries with chicken for him. We definitely had to tip well for such nice service. So this is no ordinary sandwich, and the pictures don't do it justice. In pics it looks kind of like a pita pocket, but this thing has some HEFT. Filled with veggies, meat, and sauce, it got a little messy but was really tasty. The veggies were fresh, and it's hard to top meat sliced right off the log. My MIL said her unique hot dog was good as well. To me it looked like a Chicago dog from another dimension, but I also want to give it a try next time. Protip: Ask for your sauces on the side. They're almost too generous with it on the sandwich so it's nice to have a little more control with it. This will definitely enter the rotation and will be letting our friends know as well. Great stuff!

    I just know that Berliner will always deliver and always meet your expectations. Twas a semi-late…read morenight drive home, and I couldn't tell if I was hearing the growl of my 3.6l V6 or my kegger of a tummy. It could have been both. We passed by many little holes in the walls on Barrington Rd, but we just didn't trust them because they were empty. Berliner Kebap was full and lively. I know this isn't what most people think about, but it is a good feeling to know that the food is moving. It means you're being given fresh food that hasn't been sitting around. I love the simplicity of the menu. Platters, wraps, and sandwiches are genenerous and comfort foody, in the best way possible. Of course it is all about the sauces. I want to scubadive in that garlic sauce. I could put it on everything! The herb sauce and spicy sauce are also pretty awesome. Make your food a meal. You'll get fresh hot fries and a drink. Platters will have a nice salad. It is important to mention that everyone behind the counter is so helpful and as nice as can be. And so, as people come and go...the doner shall continue to slowly spin in anticipation of your visit. ~fin~

    Heard good things but was pretty disappointed…read more First and biggest problem was an item missing from my order (baba ghanouj). Even if I bothered to drive all the way back to argue about it they would've been closed so no recourse. Food tasted like it would've been good but was mostly very dry. I did come an hour before closing but I don't think that means I should've been served mummified food. No sauces were included with my combination plate, don't know if that's nonsense protocol or another oversight as with my missing baba ghanouj. Part of the combination plate includes Spicy Chili Chicken which looks good on their website, red and well seasoned. But what I got was pale, bland and completely devoid of any spiciness. It's almost like they make their food in an unauthentic way to cater to white folks cuz they don't think we can handle the flavor ‍ I've used shawarma marinade packets from Jewel that tasted better than whatever they use. Also their pita bread is pretty low quality, like the difference between Turano and Butternut bread. Funny since that's their namesake. Won't be returning or recommending.
