Stopped in afta da Bulls Game to grab a hot dog & fries. I got a hot dog & fries for about $5 plus change. Decent hot dog (Vienna Beef) w/a ton of crinkle cut fries. Not much to write about the hot dog satiated my appetite

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!

The food is great and the staff are friendly. I recommend the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad and ask for the Soup of the day.

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.

Nicky's The Real McCoy in Cicero is the quintessential fast-casual restaurant serving all of the…read moreiconic dishes of the Windy CIty... Chicago-style Hot Dogs, Maxwell-style Polishes, Italian Beefs served dipped, Gyros with traditional Tzatziki, Greek Chicken with garlicky-lemon goodness, Pollo Adobado asado al carbon and any other fast-food classic that might come to mind like a Pizza Puff & Chicken Fingers. Not only has Nicky's set the bar higher than 9.999 out of 10 Chicagoland fast food restaurants, but they do it with style, quality and dedication. This location in Cicero is their third establishment. It has an old-school, 1950s decor with stools, gumball machines and an authentic vintage diner decor. The staff is always friendly in their own playful, West side way. After ordering your food, don't be caught off guard by hearing one of the cooks bark back if it contains special instructions. The playful banter between the guests and the kitchen is all part of the show. Just laugh and enjoy some of the comments you hear while waiting for your order. Just don't dare order ketchup on your hot dog. This is considered sacrilegious. Its a 312 thing. The prices are probably among the most affordable in the city. In order for the owner George to be able to afford this, he dedicates himself daily on-site to training a quality team that uses quality product efficiently. Many of the recipes are his own that he learned while growing up in Greece. His daily presence also creates a super warm and communal atmosphere among regulars. I'm sad Nicky's doesn't deliver directly, but I recently learned that their food is available on Door Dash for anyone looking to try the best Grecian Chicken in the city without leaving their home or office in this weather. Five Solid Stars to Nicky's The Real McCoy in Cicero. While I haven't tried the other locations in Alsip (11524 South Pulaski Road) or their original location in Chicago at 58th & Kedzie, I can't imagine either would differ. Cheers!
