    Fries
    Sharon W.

    Located in a dynamic area of the Lake Meadow Shopping Center, Culver's is a newish addition to the dining options in this area. White Castle used to the be draw but since it's opening, more people seem to go here for their burger fix. Entering the parking lot is tricky as there is always traffic for Culver's as well as the nearby grocery store and shops. I was able to snag a decent parking spot without having to circle around. This location as well as others offers a military discount with appropriate identification. The line to order was a bit confusing but I asked those waiting if everyone had been helped. Waited a few minutes and then it was my turn to order. Some guy claimed I jumped him in line and he proceeded to rant while I placed my order. Sir, we not doing back and forth in 2025! The cashier was nice and made sure to repeat my order back to ensure he got it right. When you opt to dine in, they'll give you a number tent while you go search for a clean table away from anyone acting bizarre. This took a few minutes and I had to use my stash of Lysol wipes to clean the table off for my mom and I. You'd think if an employee saw a customer doing this, they'd come over to assist but that was wishful thinking. From ordering to receiving our food, we sat for about 10 minutes. Tried to kill time by preparing our drinks and getting napkins and staging for the food's arrival. In the interim, people watching didn't disappoint.The food was hot when it did arrive so that's a plus. It had been a while since I'd eaten Culver's but it hit the spot. Of note, if you are anti ketchup such as myself and opt for bbq sauce for dipping your fries, there is a $0.50 fee for a cup of bbq sauce. The price point is slightly inflated for the portion size. Cleanliness could have been better, and they seemed to be short-staffed when I dined there. There is a competing line of food delivery drivers who come in and just grab orders while customers are in abundance. Not a terrible visit but if the choice had been mine, it would have been somewhere else. An overall three star review with room for improvement. It was too cold this particular day for a milkshake but I can get behind their milkshakes as it'd give Wendy's a run for their money. Family friendly with options to dine in, take away and has a drive thru. Capable of accepting cash, credit and contactless pay methods. If in the mood, I'd dine here again.

    Fries are burnt and cold.

    Absolutely no time to think or breathe in the drive thru. Can't think clear being rushed. Pretty much got everything plain! So annoyed. No toppings on these high priced meals and custard pisses me off.

    Normally when I go there I will get a snack pack, which consists of a butter burger, small fries and a small drink ,and it's usually somewhere around $5.

    BEST HOT FUDGE!!!…read more Margie's has been open for over 100 years. The exterior neon signs are all from 1954 and a lot of the interior decor is original from when they first opened, including all the Tiffany lamps. You can either order to-go at the inside counter, or wait for a table. If you order to-go, you'll wait outside and they will call your number when it's ready. If you prefer to eat in, they will call your name while you wait outside. Typically the wait for a table isn't too long since it's just ice cream. I always have to get a sundae with their homemade original hot fudge. It's sooo good and served in your own gravy boat.

    My husband and I had both wanted to try this historic ice cream parlor and candy shop. The vibes…read moreare authentically vintage, with the wooden booths with individual jukeboxes (ours didn't work). There are a wide array of sundaes to choose from; I got the Margie's famous raspberry hot fudge sundae, which was so yummy; the fudge came in a little turreen on the side and the sundae itself was served in their signature clamshell dish. My husband got a chocolate chip cookie sundae, served in a big glass bowl. There are also shakes, malts, phosphates and other treats to choose from on their menu, as well as a case of homemade candies. The place isn't big and is rather crowded so we got an "eat and get out" vibe from the staff, which made me feel rushed (and who wants to hurry through ice cream?) Overall, though, Margie's has clearly been a Chicago favorite for a long time for a reason. Check them out.

I was shocked to see how empty the cafe was, especially on a hot day. The quality of the bingsoo was great and really hit the spot! We ordered the injeolmi and strawberry flavors and both were very tasty! I would recommend this cafe for those looking for authentic Korean shaved ice around Chicago.

    Went solely for their fruit and red bean shaved ice. The ice could've been finer (I had to chew on…read moresome larger shards of ice which wasn't pleasant), but otherwise we enjoyed it, and I was very happy to see that it had all the makings of an old school patbingsoo with both fruit and red bean, as well as mochi and ice cream, which is rare nowadays. It was pricey but enough for 2 people to share. Metered parking on a weekend evening was easy. My only complaint is that it had a strange, unpleasant smell inside (we were there in the evening during the weekend of April 25th). Also, when I came a few years ago, it had a really cozy, welcoming vibe packed with comfy couches. Now, it just looks like basic tables and plastic chairs, lacking comfort, character, and charm. I'm hoping to return to try the sweet potato latte and the other shaved ices, but I hope they do something about the smell and make the space feel more cozy and inviting.

It's pretty small inside, there are only a few tables. A server comes to your table to place your order, which I feel like never happens at ice cream shops anymore! The menu is huge! There were multiple sections to banana splits, sundaes, and shakes. We decided to go with something simple. My son ordered 2 scoops of cookies n cream ice cream (with sprinkles of course) and I got moose tracks! The ice cream is the real deal. Our server was super sweet, and we were in and out of there in probably 30-45 minutes. We had the best time and will definitely be back this summer.

(The fact that the joint's been around for over 100 years doesn't hurt either.) It's a small restaurant but we managed to snag a cozy table near the back. We'd already spent most of the day eating, so we decided to share the Atomic Fudge Sundae. It's a fairly enormous concoction. I found it interesting that the hot fudge was served on the side, but it's actually pretty smart because you get control how much (or how little) sauce you get. The ice cream is the highlight. It's creamy and rich, and it's got a really nice flavor, too. The hot fudge was less impressive, but that might be because I had already eaten a Ghirardelli sundae earlier in the day and their hot fudge just can't be beat. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere was kitschy and fun. It's a cool place.

And honestly, I think a stop here for all future visits to Wicker Park now rely on this condition being met! While the baked goods are where it is at, the smell alone was worth selling itself. After we got a few whiffs, we made out way to the counter and did the ole "Ill take that, and this, oh and that too..." and ended up with a wide variety of cookies, tarts, danishes and cakes. All of which were absolutely delightful! Out of our haul, the peanut butter cookie was the highlight for me, and the raspberry crumble bar was it for my partner. Everything in between was delish, but a few things definitely stood out! Service was stellar from entry to exit. They knew we were newbies, so they helped us pick the best of the best. The space is gorgeous, bright, welcoming and classic. They definitely let the baked goods be just as much a part of the decor as the actual artwork. Overall, I get it now...Mindy's was impressive in all the right ways and is certainly a staple for all Chicago trips in the future!

Both Bialays are a perfect savory treat!  I can't wait to come back and try more of the baked goods, especially the coffee cakes.
