    Corn salad
    Yush H.

    Excellent smoothie and sandwiches. Got the deep detox smoothie without any additional sugar added avocado. Good fresh ingredients used. Sweet enough for me with fruits in the smoothie. Could've used a but more ginger. I ordered it with a sandwich. Chicken caprese sandwich with extra chicken. The sandwich was delicious and flavorful. There was pesto, mozzarella and other things in the sandwich. It was pretty delicious. Also got the corn salad which was nice and spicy. The kale and apple salad was a but too sweet but very tasty. Would recommend.

    Extra crowded with game day but they moved very quickly. Seating challenged but we scored a spot…read more Plenty of options but we chose the famous steak sandwich with cheese and peppers, pasta fagioli soup, fries and beer. The sandwich not overly breaded and just enough sauce and cheese. The hot peppers were good on it but I should have got the sweet peppers too. My friend said her fries were fresh but just a little undercooked. The soup was different from the standard pasta fagioli that I have had which seemed to be a cream based maybe cheese in it and beans no beef. But it was still good. I added a pinch of salt The pizza looked delicious as did the ice cream. I would have loved to try a beef as I haven't been here since I was a kid. Half of a large sandwich and I was stuffed. Great vibe and definitely a sox fans haven. The servers were kind and again even with a line out the door the they moved quickly.

    I grew up living near a Ricobene's on either Pulaski or Harlem. I never found it as fantastic as…read morethe many who bragged about it as if it were the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I would occasionally pop in for either a breaded steak or Chicken Vesuvio sandwich. When they closed, I never really realized I missed them. Flash forward 38 years later. Went to Rush Hospital to visit an uncle. Leaving at about lunch time, I opened my Yelp app to see what was nearby. The top spouses ad (2.7 miles away) was Ricobene's. I really wasn't aware they were even around anymore. So, for nostalgic purposes, I decided to go there. Had my mother and aunt in tow, and we were all very pleased. The breaded steak, while still maybe not the greatest thing since sliced bread, was a nice blast from the past that I really enjoyed. Would I go there again? Surely. If I were 2.7 miles away (though uncle's been released and is back home doing fine). Do wanna try their Chicken Vesuvio again one day. But 22 miles each way just for that, not. Quick friendly service, and way cleaner than most hot dog joints and beef stands out my way. Few things make me miss Chicago, but this is one of them.

    Was going to go to Jim's Original or a few other more "renowned" hot dogs spots I'm more familiar…read morewith, but I picked this one based on Yelp reviews and proximity. It didn't disappoint. The Polish was succulent and had the "right" taste and I had it covered in grilled onions, sport peppers and mustard - Maxwell style. IKYYK. A beautiful combination. These fries appeared hand cut and stayed blazin' hot for the entire 15 minutes of my meal. I'm not sure what they put in them but I like it. Glad to finally get to ditch the pre-frozen crinkle cuts. Neighborhoods all over the city have little relics of yesterday and this one is no different. Two thumbs up. God bless the Yelp gods.

This place became a quiet refuge for me -- a small corner of comfort where everything feels lighter. It's the kind of place that slowly begins to feel like a second home, not only because of the atmosphere, but because the people here welcome you with a warmth that feels genuine, almost like family. And the food makes the experience even more memorable. The chicken breast burger and the french fries are easily some of my favorites -- simple, comforting, and incredibly delicious. A place like this is rare, and that's what makes it special.

    Traveling for business. As a small biz owner, always looking for locally owned!…read moreDid a deep dive into "finding local gems" and found this place. Reviews across social media are all over the place. Hubby chose the gyro platter with fries. *so much food*. He normally eats all his food, but he just couldn't. He just stopped and said "so much food" . Portion won! I chose the italian beef (not juicy/dipped) & had it on side instead. Cheese fries are ok, but not wow. The italian beef however, that is a different story. The flavor was throughout the beef & I liked how it did not have to rely on the juice to get the flavor. Speaking of the juice that had a perfect amount of spice. I have to say this is one of my top Italian beefs that I've ever had.

    Ordered 2 Gyros platters - one with fries, one with baked potato, also 2 Big Baby hamburgers…read more Requested RAW onions, repeated the request several times. Got them with grilled onions :-( Disappointed because this really does change the taste of the burgers. The gyros were good and portion was plentiful. Meat was tender and fresh, no burnt or "old" tasting bites. Sauce was a little bland, but very fresh and tasted homemade. Fries were not greasy.
