    Double cheese burger

    People don't listen told them cheese burger plain no ketchup mustard lettuce or tomato they give that and put way to much mustard the bottom bun was so wet it wasn't even eatable. So nasty

    Great beef! Every time I come back to Chicago area I want one of these beefs! Delicious!

    My #1 gyros. Huge, crispy meat and lots of sauce. Would love to explore the menu but can't resist the gyros. Quick service, great value.

    Ordered a combo juicy with sweet peppers. This order came with fries and a drink. The combo was…read morefull of beef and the Italian sausage had a great flavor. Juicy as I expected add that pepper in a bite and it was layered in flavor. Fries were hot and delicious. Service for my order was fast but I imagine depending on what you order being they cook fresh some items will be a minuet or two. Also I noticed police frequently eat there so it has to be good. As to parking I am a tad fussy as to spacing of parking space so I was not to thrilled about parking but that's me. Overall parking was available and the lot moved in out fast due to the speed of service. There are tables in the restaurant so you can sit in to eat. I enjoyed my experience and recommend Pete's in Oak Park. There is a second Pete's but have not stopped there. Which is funny I pass that Pete's 2 all the time when I am in the area.

    So I have to admit this was my first Chicago style hot dog... And I don't know why the rest of us…read morehave been doing it so boring. Putting a whole salad on a hot dog takes what could have been a guilty fast food meal and makes it feel fresh and dare I say, healthy? The peppers were such a great kick and the I also appreciated that the relish was NOT sweet! Both a pickle spear and dill relish on the same dog? Yes ma'am! My friend who grew up here had the protip of getting a cup of cheese for the fries, why not? I just ate so many veggies! We also got an Italian beef with sweet peppers to split. I have had Italian beef before, so this wasn't a new flavor, but it's been awhile, and when I tell you I didn't remember the beef being so flavorful. I think next time I would get it with hot peppers, but the sweets weren't bad. Get a lemon ice if it's warm out, it was smooth and tart and a great finish to a great meal to round out my Chicago trip!

    Wonderful Drive-In Stand. Henry's has been in this community for a very long time . Route 66…read moretrail! The outside is impeccable! Well maintained and frankly, one of the coolest Artful signs ever! It's a hot dog stand, seems that's most appropriate here. They packaged the items well, and I did ask for onion. Just communicate well enough, you can get it. Next time I'll ask for well done fries, again, my responsibility to communicate better. Super clean inside dine area. They even sell their shirts here. Fast service, local high school /college kids, which is excellent to see, they did work as a team. You can't go to Cicero and not try Henry's! Located on the South Side of Ogden Ave, just West of Austin Blvd. Across from a large Butcher shop, which is wholesaler but open to the public. Many stations and shops nearby in a lovely community area

The old traditional Drive -In that served awesome food, milkshakes and cool beverages. They use to deliver those out with roller skates on , cool Hats and awesome uniforms. Some of us still remember the "good ol days". This location has the "theme" down. But they don't provide the same Service anymore. They do have a very extensive menu, so if you are not familiar with it, I'd say look at it online first. The drive thru was completely slammed. It did take some time. I just ordered a fun drink: added cherry to my coke product. They were nice on the drive up, patient enough but the exchange part, total miss. Not rude but not friendly either. I was looking over the other reviews, and who expects a "charismatic" person working for minimum wage at a super busy fast food joint in a slammed area? That's a bit unrealistic. But I can't mention food, I didn't order. Overall, I love the "theme", I felt the restaurant itself was well cared for. ^^^ They need to improve their wait times and exchanges with customers at the pick up window. I did have a much better experience in the great state of Georgia, but I'd like to have another one as well in the Great City of Cicero. So I'll be back when the sun is out and we can enjoy the "Drive -In" Experience. Located in a busy shopping area. Across from Ross Bargain clothes, Burger King, KFC, next to a very nice Car Wash and also the big Pride BP. Sam's Club , Home Depot and many other places nearby. In a well established town of Cicero. 290 - exit South, I-55 exit North. Off. Cicero Ave. west side of street

    This is probably some of the worst service I have ever experienced. The cashier was extremely rude,…read morethe food was not good at all and it was cold.

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!
