If you're looking for a divey spot with comfort food, Uncle Franky's is definitely worth a visit…read more Their menu features a variety of hot dogs, burgers, wings, tots, fries, and other classic favorites. On this visit, I ordered the tots, a Coney Island Chili Dog, and a Wall Street Dog. Everything hit the spot and came out quickly. This is a true hole-in-the-wall kind of place. Perfect for grabbing a fast bite, people-watching, chatting with the locals, and soaking in the neighborhood atmosphere. Places like this have a lot of character, and I'm always happy to support local gems that make the community unique.

Cozy space. Friendly service…read more I wouldn't get a sandwich again (ordered the New York, New York, aka the Franky's reuben) - the dogs are definitely the highlight of this place.

Tried the Sopes. It's a flat disc, made of masa that's fried, and thicker as well as softer than a…read moretostada. The dish includes 3 sopes and I got to select a different meat for each. I didn't really get the flavors of the meats due to all the toppings (beans, lettuce, pico, sour cream), which if you want to omit anything, you can. I also went for the tres leche cake, which was good. To be honest, we were actually heading to another restaurant on the block, but being a Monday, they were closed. Thankfully El Taco Riendo wasn't because I enjoyed the experience. They have a large menu written on the wall. Right above the cashier is another menu with pictures, and I believe there was a smaller menu with pics on the counter. Prices were fair and service good. After placing our order we were given our drinks and told to have a seat, the food would be brought to us. The food came out in less than 10mins. However, out cakes weren't, so eventually I just notified an employee who took care of things immediately. In all it was a nice experience.

I'm convinced Mexican food doesn't get better than this. A true hole in the wall over on central…read moreavenue, everything I've ever had here is out of this world. Don't even get me started on their Al Pastor. It sits cooking in Bbq and pineapple on top that drizzles juices into the meat. On this day I had pastor tacos. They come very simple as I ordered Mexican style. They come with cilantro, onion and salsa and meat. This is all you need as the pastor truly shines and the pineapple presents brightly amongst the bbq and smoky taste of the pork. This is one of a kind pastor that's for sure. They make much more authentic Mexican food here than most Mexican establishments I've been to, and their salsa is very hot so for those not used to such flavor it may come as a slight shock, just something to consider going in. Staff here are always so kind and warm and friendly. I never feel out of place when I come here. This stays on my rotation for lunch as I work nearby, and it's a 10/10 always!

Most recently we got take out on a Friday night at 5 pm…read more Food 4/5: we have tried many different tacos over the year. We currently love their breakfast tacos, Shrimp tacos, and chips and guac. Well balanced season wise and you can customize to make more or less spicy. Giving them a 4 because one of the salsas we got was rancid. Service 1/5: the user experience of their website could use improvement. We always order ahead of when we go and the amount of times I've had to re enter my order or the website not letting me log in happen everytime we order. This is also the first time our order has been correct. Either they forget tacos/chips or include incorrect ones, the newer staff seems to check but previous staff generally did not. Ambiance 4/5: we have eaten in the restaurant before. Be careful that sometimes the bathrooms are out of order. If you sit in certain spots of the restaurant it is freezing cold in the winter. Outside of that the restaurant has a fun theme. Overall we really love this place but have been disappointed with food errors and website challenges.

This is a very cute taco spot. I'm a sucker for street tacos and this place did not disappoint…read more There were many menu options to choose from. The staff was courteous. The food did take a little bit of time but it didn't bother us because they have board and card games! The parking lot is rather small so be mindful of the time you're thinking about visiting.

I also appreciate that their prices are exactly as written--if it says $5, it comes out exactly $5. As an added bonus, the prices are reasonable compared to other similar ice cream/fast food places in the area. The fries were fresh and crispy, and the dream smash burger was incredible (albeit a little hard to eat due to its floppiness). The ice cream was decent; they didn't skip on the portion sizes.

Really good burgers at a decent price!…read more The burgers were incredibly tender. $12 for a basket with fries for a single is a great deal and you add a patty for $3. The meat skirt was great on them. I also added bacon which was also incredibly tender. The cheese was really creamy and gooey too. I thought the patties could have used a touch more seasoning, but a minimal comment. They were meaty and delicious. The fries were battered fries, which I really like. And we're scaldingly hot out of the frier. They were really good. There is extremely limited inside seating...basically just a rail on the window. So in bad weather don't count on a spot inside. Plenty of benches outside and a patio though as long as the weather is good. The ice cream is also very good and competitively priced at $5 for a single scoop. Service is like a fast casual restaurant. They take your order and you pay and give your name and they bring it out to you.

The best Mexican food I have ever had in my life, It was truly so good. Phone did not eat first…read more Food and Drink - We started with the chips and guac and the guacamole was outstanding. The onions and tomato that were chopped up in it were so satifyingly chopped I really enjoyed, it was nice and cold too. I got the quesabirria tacos for my meal and they were out of this world, I seriously think I inhaled them and have been thinking about them ever since. We were drinking Pina Coloadas and it made me feel like I was on the beaches of Mexico. Service - There was one server working on a busy Friday night and she killed it; she was attentive and remembered everything whilst also being the bartender too!!! Ambience - it is colorful and bright in there and just almost nostalgic. There is a chipotle style line at the front if you want to just grab something quick and full service in the back of the building, cannot wait to go back.

(We were the only ones in the restaurant.) Waitress service was good. Food was good. Drinks were good. Upon leaving, I said to the Bartender "thanks a lot have a great day." She said "likewise." Needless to say a little bit frosty.. They don't do Tips, i left $12 cash on the table. Would I recommend it no. Would I schedule another family meal here no. If someone else invites me here, I will show up and roll with the punches.

I believe that I had the best Bahn Mi of my entire life here…read more We both got the Cold Cut Bahn Mi with hot sauce. We also got the pork egg rolls. They were delicious, and we'll get two orders the next time. One each was not enough. The dipping sauce was a perfect match. Now onto this heavenly sandwich. From the first bite, my mouth was like, whaaaaaaaa???? The hot sauce was a nice foil to the mayonnaise. Both were meant to be on this sandwich. The baguette was PERFECT Crispy, crunchy exterior with a soft, not doughy, inside that gently held the sandwich ingredients. The sandwich is a good size, and could easily become two meals. I was hella greedy and ate the entire thing in one sitting. The idea of leaving any of this sandwich for later seemed like I would have lost my mind. Well, I kinda did lose my mind while eating this sandwich. I've eaten a lot of Bahn Mi over the course of my life, and I have never before heard an angelic chorus when I bit into one. This one had the clouds parting, and a Divine Light shining down on this work of sandwich art. This place is not far from where I live, as well. It's far enough that I won't visit every day, yet I am already planning my next visit. Do yourself a flavor and get this sandwich in your mouth, NOW!

It's been over 6 years since I've had Lu's which use to be really really good. Not sure if it's an…read moreoff day or what but the bread was stale, I wanted that crunch but it was missing. It wasn't chewy either it was just like days old bread. The bread was also way bigger than the filling I felt like I could barely taste any of the filling, it was just bread the whole time. I also got spring rolls, and they were good, nothing too crazy but yeah overall really disappointed in the quality over the years.

Of all the local sandwich chain, the are definitely in my top 3. I've been coming to this location…read morefor over a year now and have always found the staff to be polite. There are several tables inside, and because it's never been very busy during my visits, finding somewhere to sit is always easy. I typically go for the Girf or Comet Candy. Both come with Provolone but when I remember I request cheddar instead, which is never an issue for them to substitute (no added cost). In the past (before this location) I used to get the Broccoli Cheddar, and Chicken and Dumpling soups which were both good. Haven't had them here, but I imagine it taste the same. Only downside is while the bread is usually soft, every now and then I get one that's a bit harder (day old vs. baked too long... idk). Other than that, Erbert and Gerberts is good with me.
