It's funny I come near Woodstock, and I always make that joke "Boba burger?" anytime I'm in the area with my buddies The other day one of the owners kids was playing near the register and you know its moments like that where they're just happy and such great people with great hospitality to there customers. I've reviewed this place once before: Tokyo dog, Lechon burger, large fries, and triple berry smoothie is my go-to. I seriously don't exaggerate you need to come by before they close. I hope they find a place quickly because you know I sure will always come back.

We dropped in for a quick dinner. This place is super busy. They make your food to order which is…read moregreat. It's a serve yourself kinda place. They mainly do pick up business. It's inside a bowling Alley. The folks are really friendly and nice. The food is decent. The burger's are 5 oz. and made fresh. You get a nice brioche bun with fresh lettuce and tomatoes and cheese. The drink options aren't huge. It's not a place you linger or have a conversation. The onion rings are nice and crispy but for me I don't like the huge batter centric rings. I like a light batter with crunch so you can taste the onion. The fires are just okay. Most were a bit soggy for me.

I've tried the Roger Park location, but this is the sit down one. They did the best to change this…read moreLong John Silvers into a burger haven. They succeeded. I order the Buenos Dias burger with onion rings and a chocolate shake. They do have a combo for fries and soda, with an up charge for onion rings, but not for the shake. I had to order a la carte, which set me back. There is also a surcharge if you use debit/credit card. The Buenos Diaz burger has a sunny side egg, bacon, hash browns with a chipotle mayo. It was delicious and definitely a 20 napkin burger. The onion rings were crispy and the onion did pull out from the breading. It came with a dipping sauce which tasted like a very mild bbq sauce The chocolate shake was worth everything my lactose intolerant body shouldn't have. Creamy, blended perfectly with a cherry on top.

The fried chicken here is incredibly tasty. You can order chicken most any way (boneless, tenders,…read morewings and drums, or even half/whole chicken), and there are countless sauce varieties to try. I personally really enjoy the soy honey glaze. Keep in mind you can also order sauces for the side. We also tried out some kimchi loaded fries. The waffles fries underneath were crispy and piping hot. The kimchi itself was pretty seasoned and definitely more of a sauce-like consistency than I'm used to: different but still worked well with the fries and sauce. We ordered to-go, and the food was ready in a few minutes. Given how good the food was for us, I can't wait to go back and dine in. They seem to have a decent private lot as well for parking.

Absolutely an amazing establishment.. the best Merle cheddar burger in Chicago and that saying…read moresomething because I believe that I might have tried them all.. everything else on their menu is fantastic as well you can't go wrong with anything.. very happy that they focus on the food NRA to go only restaurant for the most part because it allows them to continually turn out very high-quality food and the ingredients they use are amazing.. The gangster bowl is the perfect healthy choice. If you get it with quinoa, I prefer a side of salsa too spicy things up, but if you don't like spice, it has the perfect blend of flavors. I get the pastor version... thank you for your continued dedication to your food and I hope you continue.. the lady taking your delivery order is very nice as always and very good at her job and very detailed oriented and the ambience is what you expect from a high-end to go establishment

Owner was friendly but sounded rushed when we were ordering. Definitely had to order quickly. The Spicy Gangster Burger had a serious punch of heat in the best way possible. The burger patty was super flavorful with a nice crisp on the outside while still staying juicy inside. The chicken tacos were delicious with a little kick to them -- my 14-year-old absolutely inhaled them. The carne asada fries were also really good and easily shareable. The steak was flavorful, tender, and loaded on top. Overall, everything we tried was packed with flavor and worth coming back for!

While stopping through the area for another errand, we decided to make a stop at Charcoal Flame…read moreGrill for lunch. It's a standalone building with it's own parking lot. We didn't notice until our way out but they also have a drive-thru, and signs that say they offer delivery/are on DoorDash, so with multiple options, Charcoal Flame is convenient. This building looks like it possibly used to be an old 90s/00s KFC or Pizza Hut or something, but it's cozy and clean and we love an easy access parking lot. The menus are expansive and you order at the counter when you walk in. There are plenty of tables for dining in, and a few were taken while we were there. There was a steady stream of phone orders coming in for pick up, and the restaurant was busy overall. We were helped right away and the staff at the counter were so friendly. I ordered a Maxwell street sausage as a meal ($5 additional for a drink and fries) and my partner ordered the American Gyro sandwich and also as a meal. We grabbed a table and our drinks from the fountain machine and only waited a few minutes for the number on our receipt to be called with our order. The food here is so fresh and delicious. This is one of the best Maxwell street sausages I've had around, the bread was perfect and soft inside and crispy on the outside with the sausage split and grilled and perfectly sweet caramelized onions. The fries looked like they came in frozen/pre-cut but were fried up perfect and a generous portion. The Gyro came stacked with meat, it wasn't dry, and had great flavor. Because the food was so delicious I decided to grab a piece of baklava to go, which I was assured was homemade and delicious - and they were right. So sweet, fresh, textured, rich, luxurious. Don't skip the baklava when you stop by! This is definitely a spot that will be added to our regular rotation of lunch/dinner spots around town. Thank you so much Charcoal Flame Grill for a wonderful experience with super friendly staff! Can't wait to see you soon and try more menu items!

Was excited to try out this place that I kept passing by in the past, not knowing what kind of…read morecuisine they served. I assumed that with their name, that they might serve barbecues? Than I read something on instagram that they serve the best gyros, I just had to swing by. I ordered their Gyros Dinner Plate and their Pork Chops Dnner Plate. I also got their Kefte Dinner Plate for my son Alex. Alex said his kefte plate was good. I, on the other hand, found my touted Gyros plate, kinda "meh". The meat was kinda bland, although those humongous greek potato wedges were awesome! I bought the pork chops for din-din with my wife later that night. Unfortunately, the chops were tough and chewy! I know it's tough to cook pork chops, but, they're a restaurant. You'd think they'd know how to cook pork chops the right way. So, in conclusion, it was a big letdown for me on this new find. I'd have to say that their servings are quite abundant, but It terribly lacks in taste and texture, and I don't think quantity equals quality here.

Une Annee is one of the reasons to go to this pretty boring looking suburb. Hit up the bar for some cold ones plus on site made food. The prices aren't bad for craft beers and kitchens. A pretty impressive looking building. It's big and can fit hundreds. This is like a massive garage with a bar and a kitchen. First though it's a brewery. It's about $6 a pint. The one I liked the most was the Twist Of Wit. It's a wheat beer with Cara Cara oranges, coriander, and Meyer lemon. Tasted fruity but not too much. Also we got some food, which was actually good for a brewery. Vegan options are limited but there's a few. It's $6 for the Veggie Chili. This is vegan without the sour cream sauce. Also there's barbecue. There's pork belly and that kind of stuff. Beers are the best things to get here. It also has food from an on site kitchen. There's meaty options like pork and there's chili for vegetarians.

Flame On Peri Peri is a singular restaurant serving hot ass food. Kind of seems like it mixes American fast food with Mediterranean options such as chicken and falafel among protein options. This type of cuisine typically uses meat but there's a falafel option for those getting the meaty stuff. After hearing about it one time, I came here. It's located in a nice strip mall building, modern looking. This is an order at the counter type of restaurant. Has some spicy ass food. There's a sort of Mediterranean fast food kind of feel too. It's about $10 for one of the Rice Bowls. The vegan option for protein is the falafel. These were plentiful, a good value. Also you get a choice of sauce, and I got the creamy hummus. This also came with hot and white garlic sauce. It was fucking ass hot. This had serious hot peppers in there. For sure I would go here again. It's expensive so not all the time of course. There's a pretty big menu full of options like bowls, pitas, and salads, and there's options for both meat eaters and vegetarians.
