Awesome kabob sammiches.. Small menu but Everything is great! The only down side is that they close too early!

I always pass by this place and it's always people there . Today was my first time going there and I must say the food is VERY good . I had the steak sandwich which was awesome and the Fries. . will be coming back for more ;) read more

This place is worth a drive regardless of where your at! Tried the Steak Sandwich w/ both raw and grilled onions and tomato, and it has great flavor and they give you a good amount of fries as well. The only "negative" thing I have to say even though it really was not the problem was that the bread got soggy and partially fell apart. With that being said, don't let that soggy bread keep you from coming! Steak Sandwich w/ fires and an RC came out to around $9. One of the best steak sandwiches I have ever had. Will always be coming back! read more

This place is a gem the steak sandwich with cheese and union is awesome everything is great here if you haven't tried this place please do yourself a favor yeah the guy at the counter is kind of weird but he's actually misunderstood take a chance at this place!!! read more

One of my favorite places to get lunch in the area. I have had thier shish-kabob, chill, hotdog and chesseburger. I have never been disappointed with my order. My husband loves the steak sandwich. The fries are perfect fresh cut fries. The owners are nice people who you don't mind giving your money too. read more

Great place for a shish kabobs, absolutely delicious! Fresh cut fries are amazing as well. 5 stars all the way!

Been going here for a decade. TREMENDOUS steak sandwiches i always recommend it to everyone I know. Never had a bad meal here

There are few places on this planet that hit the spot for me like Mr. D's does. I don't come here often, but when I do, I always regret that I don't come more often. Don't get discouraged by the location or the dinky little shack; the food in here is the real deal. They offer typical Chicago fare, at very decent prices, and always made extremely fresh and made to order. I usually say otherwise, but this actually IS one of the places where I come for the fries. The proprietor is an older Greek man with his son working the register, and sometimes his wife working alongside them on busier days. The fries are freshly cut for each order, and double fried to perfection. He gives you one giant russett potato, so it's a really good portion. I talked about the fries, but I still haven't gotten to the best part; their steak sandwiches. Everything about them is perfect. From the roll, to the medium well, deliciously marinated steak, seasoned with a little bit of oregano, and loaded up with onions, tomato, and au jus. I think the charcoal grill is what makes these steak sandwiches, as well as the freshness of the steaks. It's just so juicy and so smoky, and with the perfect fries, it's hard to get any better than Mr. D's. The steak sandwich hits the spot so well for me, that I don't usually have room to try anything else. My whole family raves about the Shiskabob sandwiches from here, as well as the cheese burger, and the beef. Mr. D's is one of your typical looking, but very unique Chicago dives that everyone should try. It's even been featured on Chicago's Best and a couple of other foodie shows. Forget about all of that though, and just come for the food, because for that Mr. D's gets a 6/5. *When you eat at Mr. D's, never pay up front! Order your food and sit down and eat it, then pay when you leave. It's customary here. read more

Absolutely amazing food. Had the steak sandwich and was blown away by how good it is. Great price and great food!

Love this place!! Steak sandwich and Shish-Kabob would be my favorites, usually get both. Cash only, all the menu items come with their awesome fresh cut fries. The only downside is their limited hours. Always get cravings for Mr D's on sundays or after 6pm when they're closed. read more

I've been coming here for years. All food here is so good but the steak sandwich is the best you can get. Your not gonna get a better steak sandwhich anywhere else. You get fresh cut fries with any sandwich and the price is right for great quality food. Mike and his family are the best!!! read more

I swear it up and down my body that this little restuarant is amazing...I have tried everything on the menu and nothing dissapoints!! If u want a great steak sanwhich and fries for under 6 bucks...go to The D!!! read more

One of the best places to get a steak sandwich or Kaibab sandwich or Polish on the north side of Chicago Limited menu because if what you make is so good you don't need to sell everything and every variation PRICES ARE EXTREMELY FAIR FOR THE GREAT QUALITY read more

In all the years I've lived on the NW side I FINALLY made it over to try out Mr. D's and it was delish!!! The shish kabob sandwich hit the spot. Succulant tender chargrilled meat with onions, peppers tomato, a brown sauce and lemon wedge to squeeze for additional flavor! All sandwiches come with fries so I got to try these famous buds and although a bit greasy for my taste they were so fresh and mushy, browned perfectly in thier hot tub of oil. While waiting for my food I watched as potato after potato was cut there right in front of me It's really nice to know that aside from the oil the only ingredient in thier fries are potato (imagine that) I'm not gonna lie the interior is a bid "sketchy' lookin and could certainly use a little color or updating because it has an extremely drab feel to it, there are only 3 tables or so to be seated at and a counter to stand at but the food was really good! I would like to try the steak sandwich next time around. read more

I can't believe I've lived in this neighborhood for 25 years and even worked in the original Brickyard Mall add a teenager and have never walked in to this place. My boyfriend is a huge food critic and is always looking for great places to eat. Well this place has definitely made it in our book of the top places to eat. I had the shish kabob sandwich , he had the steak sandwich and let me tell you, both were amazing. Oh, and don't forget the fries! The owners were also really great, they truly make everyone that walks in the door feel like friends and family. read more

My freind took me to thsi place eons ago and I go back whenever I can get a chance. Everyhting is flame broiled and cooked right in front of you. I recomment the cheeseburgers and the shish ka bobs but everything on the menu is great i even like their chili. It reall is an old school type place i think someone commented that he is like the soup nazi from seinfeld and they are right LoL. My only faults I can find with this place is there isnt enough seating and he closes too dam early. I think it is around 6pm and he is closed on sundays if I can recall. If he was smart he should open up more of these places but I guess he is content read more

You know what I love about this place the most, CONSISTENCY! Small family ran restaurant that's only open til about 5 or 6 pm. Their steak sandwich is amazing as many times as I've had it it's always tasted great not burnt and not dry and full of flavor. They also have really good burgers that have that "off the grill" flavor served with a basket of fries. If you want some great mom n pops food this is the place you have to check it out you won't be disappointed! read more

Small selection of food but very good. Fries are the best. People are friendly. Only flaw is cash only.

I grew up in the area and haven't been here in 20 years or so. I couldn't remember how the food was since it has been so long. Though I have been on a yelp sandwich review kick and trying different sandwiches and subs around the area. So I had to try the steak sandwich here. I have to say it is excellent, probably the best streak sandwich I have had. Nothing fancy, just some tomatoes, onion, bread, and some good seasoned steak. It really has excellent flavor. Plus they give you a nice amount of fresh cut fries, which were great as well. Have to not wait 20 years to come back to this place again... read more

Greasy spoon. Got the kabob sandwich, which was tasty, juicy, and came with real potato fries. This establishment may lack in appearance & ambiance, but the owners make up for it with a genuinely friendly & warm atmosphere. They treat everyone like regulars (it was my 1st time there). read more

My parents ate here since they were kids and I too grew up on it. They have the BEST fries, shish-kabob and steak sandwiches!!!! Its a hole in the wall place owed by a sweet family who knows you by name. Its nothing fancy but its just really good!! My family jokes about how sad I would be if I could never eat their food again or if they ever closed how I might cry. read more

I used to work right across the street for 7-years, so I've had many meals at Mr. D's. This place is a classic, old-school diner. Mike and Ann, the owners, are very friendly, and have been working side by side for over 30-years. The shish-ka-bob sandwich and the steak sandwich are both excellent! Some times it can be hard to find a table. read more

Introduced to Mr.D's the first year I moved to Chicago( 93 ).I make it a point to drive the forty minutes or so from my neighborhood,to Mr.D's every month or so.These people care deeply about serving a quality product.For 22 years I have gladly returned and have NEVER been disappointed . I was there again today, and as always have a fantastic steak sandwich, delicious fries, and Mr.D's chili too. It is an austere interior, and much of the booming business through the day is take out. The marinated steak sandwich, with fresh onion, tomato, brown sauce is just the bomb. (and please ask for extra juicy,it nearly soaks the crusty bread and it's delectable) Go , enjoy. I miss it when I wait too long,I buy chili to bring home for the next day too. And to respond to the multi- paragraph rant I read dissing Mr.D's written in 2010 and updated ...his observations were clearly based on an obsessive compulsive view none of what his rambling description says ,is true ..Fries do not need to be refrigerated when they've been fresh cut, and going to be dropped into a 480 degree fryer .Do you refrigerate your un-skinned potatoes ? what's the rush one you clean them and peel then? Did you ask , why they don't turn brown..of course not..too busy being ridiculous. The tongs are dangled in the grill to keep them roaring hot before handling and between fresh and raw .Old world method and it works.The place is NOT dirty nor do they handle food with dirty fingers as the rant suggests.Do you think they'd be featured on multiple Chicago food shows if that were true? Disregard the nonsense, and read what every other review tells you.That the meal they serve is delicious,that the price is very reasonable and that once you've tried it you will be back. read more

Heaven! I've been a loyal customer since the 1970's. This is the most delicious food. They are family owned and the best people who serve high quality food. read more

Awesome food!! I live in the neighborhood and I always recommend this to all my friends. Best fries in Chicago!!

Ok, it's a bit scary from the outside and the inside is a notch below a "dive", BUT if you are into authentic Chicago neighborhood joints that serve up outstanding Chicago-style grub, THIS is the place. The 1st time I dropped in, I went with the steak sandwich. It was so damn good (charcoaled marinated steak, tomato slice, onion on a hoagie-style bun smothered in nicely done hand-cut salted fries) that I HAVE to order it every time I go. I can tell everything else they serve is just as good, but I gotta have my steak sandwich. Absolutely no frills at Mr. D's (no fountain drinks, just canned RC Cola), but it doesnt matter when the food is this damn good. read more

Mr. D's is a neighborhood delight! I have had everything on the menu at one time or another, and can honestly say, I have never had a bad experience or meal at Mr. D's! They are a family operation. All ingredients are fresh. Space is limited but all orders are made to order. My favorite's are the Shish-Kebob and the charbroiled Steak. Alway's get the fries. Top Notch lunch stop. Been there forever for a reason! read more

Good food, good people, good times. Mr. D's is a winner, folks. Recommended.

Love the steak sandwich & pork shish-kabobs. Family owned. Support your local economy!

Family owned fast food joint . The best steak sandwich in chicago. The owner Mike knows all customers by their 1st name .

Awesome fries, Awesome Ka Bobs, awesome steak sandwich. My favorite food in chicago. I have always hated steak sandwiches but the one at Mr Dee's has no bones, gristle, hunks of fat or any other nasties. The only steak sandwich in the world I will eat. Just awesome. Small menu but how much do you need. Hipsters, yuppies, and torists stay away please. Don't ruin this place like you did Kuma's. read more

the owner very rude i ask for order he said hurry up get my order straight got bad attitude i been going here for years never have i got treated like that i will never order from here again dude is a asshole read more

Good. Honest. Char-Grilled Food at unbeatalbe prices. A Northwest side staple without a question.

A nice simple delicious joint located on a typical Chicago corner (old school). Great steak sandwich and fries! If your hungry try it with double meat, you'll pay extra of course, but it's worth it...and don't forget to ask for a lemon wedge. read more

I've been a customer since mid-1970s because I grew up on Rutherford Ave near Belmont. Mr. D's was a frequent lunch stop. Mike, his wife, and now his son, have perfected charcoal broiled fast food and fresh-cut fries. My fav is the shish-kabob sandwich. #2 is the cheeseburger and #3 the steak sandwich. You'll be hard-pressed to find better fresh-cut fries anywhere and they come with every sandwich. Kudos to Mike and family! read more

Mr. D's has the BEST steak sandwiches around and the burgers are flame! Everything there is delicioussss! We've been going for quite a few years and its not that it's run down, they just kept the same look how it was in the 80's and 70's and didnt remodel it. The thing is that they're closed on sunday =( but thats still the best steak sandwich place in the city! yum yum read more
