    Hot dog w/everything.
    Doug M.

    Your average red hot stand, that also features beefs, sausages and various sandwiches. Service was good. Ambiance is alright. Prices seem high for me, compared to other hot dog stands in the area. $13.66 for the two dog special, which includes fries and drink. I had 1 dog with fries/drink and it was still over $13. Checking in with Yelp gets you one free hot dog with a purchase of a hot dog.

    The red hot

    Wow! The red hot dog is amazing! As soon as we walked inside there was Great service! Can't wait to go back!

    The sign out front, near the intersection of 63rd St & Main St in Downers Grove!

    Very disappointed on both the hot dog and the beef sandwich. Didn't even eat the whole beef sandwich . I threw it away. Won't return.

    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.

It's a smaller joint as far as standalone restaurants go, but it had everything you'd expect and want from the local dog house. A wide variety of menu choices and green river on tap? Sign me up! The cheese sticks were good, and got devoured pretty quickly, though that's about as much as I can say there. The fries slapped for sure. They have that fresh cut flavor and styling, and were a beautiful sight to behold. The dog was certainly on the skinny side, but I still enjoyed it for what it was. My buddy liked his polish, and had great compliments for the breaded mushrooms. Our milkshakes were phenomenal also. Honestly a solid lunch outing overall. Will definitely be looking to come back the next time we are around. I don't know if this place is associated with the places called Scoobys, but those are on my list too!

Table, chairs, restroom, two screens to order, etc. The parking lot is decent, you can always find a space. I ordered the double cheeseburger, fries, and a blueberry fresh pressed lime. My girlfriend ordered the mango fresh pressed lime. Prices were fine. Service was good. They call your name when it's finished. I was lucky to get one of the last burgers and fries for the night before they sold out. I will definitely return here. -double cheeseburger 5 - two smash burgers in one. The burgers were very juicy and halal patties just hit differently. The sauce, grilled onions, tomatoes, cheese, and lettuce just make this a perfect, simple burger. -fries 5 - they gave me a huge amount of fries. I love these kind of fries. They are crunchy and well seasoned, not too salty. -fresh pressed lime drinks 5 - these were delicious. I only wished they came in a bigger size or had free refills.

You can tell the food was made fresh and not just thrown together. The beef burger was really solid, juicy, well-seasoned, and had that good smashed/grilled flavor. The chicken burger was also surprisingly really good too, crispy, flavorful, and not dry at all. Sometimes one item is way better than the other at burger spots, but both actually held up. The fries were a good side and hit the spot, but the real sleeper hit for me was the mango shake because omg... SO good. Definitely one of those drinks you keep thinking about after. The place itself is pretty simple inside and gives more of a grab-your-food-and-go vibe, but the food was the main thing here and it delivered. If you want a casual burger spot with juicy burgers and a really good shake, this is worth trying. Would definitely come back.

    So, it should be a known fact that halal food in general is slightly more expensive than regular…read morefood. Higher production costs and strict certification. However, halal burgers are very reasonable in pricing and they're very juicy. They're a little less than those American gourmet burgers ($15-17). There is parking in the back as well as some on the left side. This is not a fancy looking place, it's more of a hole in the wall. Lower your expectations because you're here for the food, nothing else. The staff was nice and helpful. I ordered a mango lassi, gladiator burger, and cowboy (with an extra patty). The mango lassi was good. The burgers were huge so I got my money's worth. I ordered mine medium rare. -gladiator 5 - it had double patties, halal turkey bacon, eggs, coleslaw, etc. It was perfect and very palatable. I really liked that CEO sauce. -cowboy 3.5 - it has a lot of similar ingredients as the gladiator except it has onion rings, no eggs or coleslaw, and bbq sauce. For some reason, the patties taste different from the gladiator, it was kind of bland. Everything else tasted fine.

After a 12-15 year hiatus from this place, I noticed their "Beef Tallow Fries" sign in the window and decided to pop in. Nobody there to take my order (you could hear people back in the kitchen), but I had to place my order at a kiosk. No big deal. Double cheeseburger was only $5.79. And when I added a small order of fries, the whole thing was under $9.00. I'm usually paying way more for a burger and fries these days, so enjoyed the nice surprise. Taste-wise though, the burger was a bit bland. And the fries were so small and skinny, you couldn't taste them much. Nothing like the McDonald's tallow fries of the 80's. But still, not gross or anything. And filled me up for under nine bucks. Ambiance is not checked on my review checklist above. Well, when you walk into a place that is completely void of people (no customers at tables and only voice's from the kitchen), it's a bit creepy. There, it's checked now.
