Delicious food and super friendly staff! The prices are a bit high, but the quality makes it worth every penny. The Chicago beef is almost as good as Portillo's, and their Chicago dogs are even better! The fries and ranch are fantastic, but I'd pass on the cheese sauce. Overall, a truly great experience! 😋 #Food #Staff #Quality #Experience

My wife is from Chicago and misses a good dog and beef that reminds her of home. I was in Lexington and wanted to give this place a shot so I could bring her along if it would check that box for her. Man.. this place was killer and it’s an absolute must for her to tag along with me! Outside of Chicago this would be the best beef and dog I’ve had. You can’t find this kind of food around this area and I’m so glad I went in. Chicago dog was 10/10 everything was perfect. Dipped Italian combo was also a 10/10. Service was quick and efficient. The guy taking orders was kind and attentive, the guys slinging the food were polite, kind, and told everyone to have a good day while doing their job. What an incredible shop. I’ll be back!

Def feels like authentic Chicago and bring your appetite. I split a Philly cheesesteak and their burger special and both were fantastic along with some fries. The cheesesteak is loaded with juicy meat and wayyyy better than any other cheesesteak in town. If I can give one criticism it’s that there’s so much meat that the ratio to cheese is off (wish there was cheese on top as well as just on bottom). Love that the steak was juicy. Most other places I’ve had the steak is dry and I have to add sauce to it. The burger was delicious as well. The sauce and toppings were excellent but only downside is together they overpowered the smaller patties so couldn’t taste the burger at all and was a bit messy. Fries were nice and crispy (nothing too special about them tho) The spot is definitely on the

Better than Portillo’s! We grew up in the Chicagoland area and we know our food, this place is amazing. The food is authentic, delicious, and huge portions. The staff was friendly and attentive. The price-point was very reasonable. We highly recommend it if you miss Chicagoland food and find yourself south of the Mason Dixon line.

Absolute perfection for Chicago fare. Maxwell Polish had ridiculously tasty caramelized onions. Chicago dog ingredients right down to the neon relish. Thick Reuben with all the right stuff. Crispy fries with a great cheese sauce and sliced Italian sausage. 10/10.
