Kong Dog

I've never been so confused at an eating establishment…read more There are dogs. I like dogs...I have a dog...but do they never accidentally pee or poop inside? Menu is really big, a bit too many options so I had to stare at it for quite a while. Food is decent. I had a Chicago style dog and chili cheese fries. My son had a cheeseburger and fries. We had two fountain drinks. The total was $40. Inflation or are these particular prices unreasonable? I don't know, but $40 for a burger, a Chicago style hot dog, two fries (to be fair, one was chili cheese fries), and two fountain drinks seems excessive. Service was pleasant. I could see how the concept works for dog people who are dog crazy. Again, food is decent, prices high, service pleasant, decor and concept a bit confusing.

I had been here a few years ago and I had liked the food. I recently got a new puppy and we're…read moretrying to socialize him so we decided to give them another try. I got a philly cheese steak. It doesn't look like a philly but it tastes really good. My kids enjoyed their food and we got a plate of food for my dog and he scarfed it down. So I'm assuming he liked it. Location was clean.

I ordered my usual, but they didn't have a 2 hot dog special, so I just did the one hot dog special with an extra dog. My food was ready quickly.

The fries are shoestring type fries they were hot and crispy. Shoestring fries aren't my favorite but were really good. This place had a counter to eat at and a couple of table and chairs.

I don't know what's with all the Yelp complaints, but at Tuesday dinner time, I got a nice piping hot and fresh serving of 2 delicious chicken pieces, and I could specify via their app a breast and a thigh with no extra charge. It was also fairly busy with a couple of large orders in front of me. Their smallish space is cozy, clean, airy, and modern. The order-taker behind the counter was a good guy too. Thumbs up and Popeyes is the best!

As far as the chicken tenders go tender is not what I would call them. The breading was rock hard like it was yesterday's food and the chicken was dried out. Seems like when you order a special from here you get day old food that they just reheat. Higher prices for lesser quality. Popeyes used to be good. Now they sell you day old food to turn a profit. I have read their reviews unfortunately after I went there and this seems to be typical of this location. All of their replies are condescending with no effort to actually make things right. Bunch of apologies but no action at all. Frankly I was shocked to see any positive reviews at all. So under that there's a response from Popeyes to my review. No indication of what they are interested in actually doing about the garbage food they served me, just some generic response that I would bet is an automatic reply and not even a real person.

My dad had an office and n Glenview when I was younger and this place was there and he had never heard of it. I guess if you were local or took the Metra, then you knew. I made a reservation as there were twelve of us coming in. We arrive for our monthly Burger Club with high hopes. It's a cute place. They have a nice outdoor deck area and the inside has a nice wooden bar with tables around it with two or three additional rooms of seating, too. We asked for separate checks, and our server told us it was no problem (it was). They have a lot of burgers to choose from so we thought that this would be a great place to go. I'll say this, our server was wonderful. Super nice, really friendly, always refilling drinks. Just a wonderful experience with her. And that's where it ends. My burger came our perfectly prepared (they ask what temperature you want and I wanted medium rare). The patties are insanely thin and toppings, while fresh, are overly abundant. Fresh lettuce, tasty pickles, etc. the burger had no flavor. No salt or pepper to season it or anything. And mine was the best of the group. Others received burgers that were overcooked, had the wrong buns, came with caramelized onions, but were raw -were sent back and came back raw again - and the sides were underwhelming. I don't like ketchup, so I asked for ranch and it was thick and had a funky flavor to it. Then bills came and they were all wrong. She had mixed up every bill. Thankfully most burgers cost the same, but drinks and some side upgrades don't. We will never go back here. I have no idea how they stay in business.

Oy vey! Reading other reviews, I was worried that I'd either be eating cardboard, or be required to…read morelock myself in the bathroom for 3-5 business days. Neither was the case, and it was instead an above-average fast food experience. Now... do you remember when the fries at McD's were actually worth raving about? Yeah... it was likely when they were cooked in beef tallow, as opposed to oil with beef flavor added (really!). I don't buy into the belief that one must go after seed oils with torch and pitchforks, but I do love a darn good fry, and Steak 'n Shake delivered! They were hot, fresh, and well seasoned. The burger itself was respectable as far as fast food goes. It was cooked fresh and assembled with care. The meat was well seasoned, and the veggies gave a good balance in terms of freshness. While the smashed patties didn't have the lacy crisp edges a next-level smashburger does, it's fast food, so I'm not going to hold it against them (I may be tough, but I am reasonable!). It did take a hot minute for the food to come out, but I was not in a hurry, and I want to recognize that everything appeared to be cooked fresh to order. It was very quiet at the time, so please be aware that during a busy time, YMMV. Finally, the service was perfectly polite and friendly. Final verdict: Steak 'n Shake has by 'good' by definition burgers. Where they shine, though, is the fries, and not for a lack of seed oils, but for being hot, fresh, and flavorful! Thus, we are left with a place that is not a destination, but one to visit when I am in the area craving a superb fast-food fry!

The pajeon was perfectly crispy on the outside and FILLED with topping. There's so much squid/octopus, onions, and bell peppers (which is a first for me). The dough itself is also seasoned so I didn't really need to dip it in the sauce. I got the kalguksu. The noodles are certainly hand made because you can tell by the way It's curled up when it's cooked. It's also a speckled noodle, which I'm not exactly sure what type of flour is used. It's certainly something new for me. There's sooo much seafood in it too. The clams/mussels are small, but there's a lot of it in there. The broth is light. It's not the best kalguksu I've had yet, but it's not terrible. My friend got the bibimmyeon. It's a cold noodle dish, which neither of us ever tried before. It always looked really good to me though. I tried some it's pretty good. The sauce is not too spicy but it's a good lingering spice. He gave me a decent to try and he was eating a good amount and he couldn't even finish. The portions are a lot too! As for the banchan, I was super excited to see acorn jelly. Ive actually never tried it. We liked it! It's lightly seasoned, and the jelly itself is light. It's a good palate cleanser imo. The broccoli and sausage banchan was really good too. The broccoli is cooked to where it's not too soft and still crunchy. It's lightly seasoned too. I liked it haha as for the rest of the typical banchans, all were very well seasoned. I would go back for pajeon alone.
