Delicious all around- the Black Napkin is a frequent craving in my household…read more The Big Malcolm is our go to burger (I get the vegetarian version and my partner gets a regular one). Highly recommend the salt n red wine vinegar fries and trying out their various dipping sauce. We have tested all of their house made sodas and the golden cola is our favorite. The line can get long so if you have flexibility I would recommend trying to go at a less popular time if the wait is important to you. Friendly, down to earth service. Cute spot in a smaller space so you will likely end up eating to go.

My kids loved it, the hubby loved it, I loved it. 5/5. The staff were friendly and the milk shakes were on point. Mine was spiked and it made me happy all day. That chicken sando though. Wow. Perfectly balanced with a carrot slaw and just a touch of chili oil to get a sizzle all held together with a decadent brioche bun. Voila! So delicious! I had a bite of hubby's burger and it was melt in your mouth awesome. I secretly love it when a restaurant has a small menu. I always hope it means they do a few things really well. Nonla lived up to all my expectations. Fast, but leisurely in the inviting diner atmosphere. The kids enjoyed asking me for $$ to play the games. Luckily, they were all winners. Hubby says this is his top 5 place and we will have to come back again soon! He also implored me to write an unequivocal 5 star review... a rare request from his mouth. Thanks Nonla!

Came here for a live music performance for a friend and found a gem! Table's biggest hit was the…read moreKing Louie Fries which were their seasoned crinkle cut fries with melted cheese, shaved beef, and giardiniera peppers. I think the Chicago dog and the Italian Beef with the au jus on the side were solid, but nothing to write back home to Chicago about. Better than Portillo's, kind of reminded me of Mr. Beef almost. Getting the sandwich wet is usually the rite of passage, but I went for the au jus on the side. Don't make the mistake I did. Everything just falls out of it when you tilt the sandwich to dip it. Also, if you think you can eat hot giardiniera peppers, just think for a quick sec longer because these ones were pretty hot for someone who has a decent heat tolerance.

We stopped in for a drink and ended up catching two different live jazz bands, which was such a great surprise and made it a really fun place to hang out for a while. We both had beers, shared a Chicago dog, and ordered wings. The Chicago dog was good, but the wings were advertised as crispy and unfortunately they were definitely not crispy. So I'd probably skip those next time. Other than that, service was good, prices were very reasonable, and we really enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere and live music. Nothing fancy, just a cool little local spot to grab a beer, listen to some jazz and hang out. We'd definitely stop in again--just not for the wings! they say crispy on the menu yeah not so much. The face wasn't dirty so that's nice. There is an outdoor seating area as well as indoor.

As an…read moreeast side transplant, I miss national coney every day but One Stop Coney can cure my craving! It's fairly affordable and the service is quick and friendly. You can order ahead of time for pickup online or just order in the store and wait for 10 mins or less. They have a couple tables to sit at inside and one outside if you want to eat there. Their Chicago dog is pretty good and the chili on their Detroit dog and fries was great. I would get food from here more if it wasn't downtown. Just kinda hard with parking sometimes.

Hancock is a fun spot to get some fried chicken and enjoy their outdoor space. Nate and I love to…read moreget a "drink and a snack" to share, and Hancock has a perfect option for this during their happy hour: two sliders and a boozy slushie for $12 (or a n/a slushie combo is $9). They also had $1 chicken tenders during happy hour, so I ordered six - they were a bit smaller than I was expecting but at $1 each it's a great deal. The tenders were cooked well - crispy on the outside and juicy inside. I'd rank Hancock's chicken tenders in my top 5 in GR. Other food options include sandwiches, wraps, a burger, bone in chicken, sides like pimento mac and cheese, and their jalapeno cheddar cornbread. They also have a vegan option (seitan patty). I love the hot spice level, which isn't super spicy. Their boozy slushies are refreshing and tasty, and they usually have one or two rotating flavors. The patio has some yard games and space for groups. There's metered street parking available.

We ordered the hottest chicken sandwich, which in my opinion had great flavor but I wouldn't say it's overwhelmingly hot. The jalapeño corn bread is deliciously sweet and moist. Pair it with their butter, that's chef's kiss. We also had an order of the chicken and waffles. Honestly, I think the waffles might be my favorite thing on the menu. It has this caramelized top layer that provides a satisfying crunch with each bite and it's as dense as a piece of cake. Highly recommend. It's a cute little restaurant with a darling outside, perfect place for lunch or a summer night. The service is always top notch.

Me and my wife both agreed that this was the best hot dog we've ever had. Whatever you guys are doing down here, keep it up!!! 10 for 10!

I received my refund but the information that others should know is this: the employee who spoke with me at the register asked this before I even brought up the fact that my sandwich was ruined: "how bad is it?" Employees are aware that someone is doing this, and her question indicates it's happened multiple times. Well, this (pictured) is how bad it was. Completely inedible and disgusting. I appreciate the manager who chatted with me (it was a civil conversation) and refunded me, but I recommend anyone/everyone to avoid this location as you never know if someone on the food line will ruin your food and waste your time having to come back to have it remade or refunded. I would urge management to consider looking into what employee is doing these rude things.
