Amazing gyros! The gyros tastes awesome. We love their mozzarella sticks, French fries, and gyros.read more

Wow! This place REALLY surprised us…read more We were looking for something different from the usual burgers, pizza, and tacos routine after my girlfriend mentioned she'd been craving gyros. Naturally, I started searching for places nearby, and while there was no shortage of options, Nicky's immediately stood out. Their photos looked incredibly well presented, with gyro meat piled high and genuinely generous portions. When we arrived just before 7 PM, the parking lot was nearly full, and after our experience, I can absolutely see why. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They could tell it was our first visit and happily walked us through the menu, answering every question with genuine warmth and patience. The food itself was excellent. Everything came out piping hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The gyro meat was tender without being overly fatty or dry. The hand-cut fries were especially impressive, perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and seasoned just right. The onion rings and mozzarella sticks were equally well executed. The real showstopper, though, was the imported Greek baklava. I've had baklava from many different regions and styles over the years, and this was easily some of the best I've ever had. Rich, syrupy, incredibly flavorful, with a heavier note of cinnamon layered throughout that made it truly stand out. The menu is expansive, covering all the classic greasy spoon favorites you'd hope for, and the restaurant itself was clean, bright, and bustling with people clearly enjoying themselves. Near the end of our meal, the same staff member who helped us at the counter came by to check on us and ask if we needed anything else, which was a really nice touch. She also mentioned this is the original family-owned location, and honestly, that care and pride really shows. Overall, a fantastic first experience, and we're very glad we decided to stop in. We'll definitely be back soon to try more of the menu.

You can't go wrong with churro, matcha, strawberry, and rice crispy flavors. Sometimes, there's a star ingredient added on top like a strawberry wafer or sprinkles of rice crispies. These mochi donuts have a nicer chew and texture than other places. You can order singles, 3-packs, 6-packs, and even a dozen. They come in cute boxes too. There are an assortment of fruit drinks (iced drinks, frappés, smoothies and refreshers) here. No, these are not boba drinks. You can get that at another station in the same food court. The staff are very friendly here, and it's clean here. Good to see a unique place like this open in North Naperville.

Reading my last review from over 11 years ago, this place is still the same. Though I don't go…read morethere as often as before, food continues to be consistently good. Nothing's changed, still an eyesore with ripped swivel stool seats, nobody wiping tables that dirty customers leave, and garbage cans often overflowing. But I'm upping my rating from 3 to 4 stars. Why? Because they are one of the few remaining places that don't ask for a tip (via screen or signed receipt) when paying by credit card for carry-out orders. This wasn't an issue 11 years ago, but it disgusts me today. I've even cut down going to places like that, quite significantly. But I do wish Doggie Diner would take better care of the inside (and remove the HUGE sign that reads that they will be reducing the size of their menu in August, 2021). Ambiance still isn't checked above, as are food and service (gotta wonder why "eyesore" didn't trigger that?--c'mon Yelp). But it's checked now though, lol.

It was one of those rare afternoons where the air finally felt alive again after months of brutal…read morewinter winds and endless gray skies. The sun stretched across the pavement like it had personally returned to remind everyone what happiness felt like. The air was crisp, cinematic almost. I had just finished demolishing a bowl at Chipotle when, in the distance, glowing like a beacon of hope to hungry travelers, I spotted the legendary Scooby's sign. Curiosity took over immediately. I wandered into the establishment in search of Scooby snacks. The atmosphere was charming, nostalgic, and wonderfully chaotic in the best way possible. I asked for a paper menu and a few recommendations for the next time I stopped by. Little did I know destiny would return me there in less than 24 hours. The previous night had been a reckless adventure through the city. Loud music, shots, questionable decisions, the usual. The next morning I awoke slightly dehydrated but not hungover because, quite frankly, I am built different. Starving and operating purely on instinct, I prayed Scooby's would be open. Miraculously, it was. As I approached the restaurant, I could hear the passionate echo of a woman enthusiastically yelling into a microphone at what appeared to be a nearby high school graduation ceremony. I stepped inside and was greeted by a smile that honestly made it difficult to remember I came there for food. I asked for a recommendation and was directed toward the gyro meal with jalapeños on the side. What arrived before me was not merely a gyro. It was a colossal, magnificent monument to human achievement. The thing was enormous. Overflowing with flavor, perfectly seasoned meat, fresh toppings, warm pita, and enough character to deserve its own Netflix special. I have eaten gyros from many places, including spots run by Greeks themselves, and somehow this glorious beast stood above them all. The interior of the restaurant felt oddly familiar, almost like a real-life Krusty Krab tucked away in the suburbs. Naturally, I felt spiritually obligated to order what could only be described as a Krabby Patty equivalent. The hamburger arrived beautifully grilled, juicy, smoky, and crafted with the kind of precision reserved for aircraft engineering. Scooby's is not just a restaurant. It is an experience. A beautiful fever dream fueled by hunger, nostalgia, jalapeños, and exceptional customer service.

My sandwich was in my hands before I even got the order out of my mouth, too. Fast, friendly, and cheap? The food must be terrible, then. Nope! Finely chopped beef, soft French bread, it can't get much better. I got the hot giardiniera, which was just right. I saved half of the sandwich for my better half to share in my joy when I got home. She took a bite, rolled her eyes in delight, and said "YUM!" After a few seconds, she was running around the house screaming that her mouth was on fire and calling me names. Apparently the hot giardiniera was a bit too much for her midwestern taste buds. Sorry. Anyway, I can't wait to get back and try some more of their menu. Thumbs up.
