    All the way dog.
    Karen N.

    This bourbon girl really wanted an Old Fashioned. I guess a Manhattan is all an airport bar can make. Drinks were great and I finally had a chance to try the hot dog. Darn good. The woman who was sitting next to me said it was the best she ever had. She asked for another. No complaints here.

    Alfredo a bartender was very nice immediately upon walking in. I rarely leave reviews , but I had been strolling the airport for 20-30 mins trying to find a place to grab a drink or two for my 5 hr layover . Got my first drink because he greeted me the moment I walked in and was patient felt that deserved at least one drink . He Consistently asked if I wanted another and was genuine and nice to everyone I saw him interact with while I was here... that being said I stayed for more than just one , two or even 3 drinks . Simply for the hospitality he showed . If you've been in an airport you know it's hit or miss with employees . If you want to enjoy a drink with a Hospitable bartender . Stop here . You won't be dissapointed . Most of their drinks are bottled few are on tap , they also have a full bar .they are located around the corner from the food court between H&K.

    Chicago Style Hot Dog
    Giorgio N.

    It was tasty with fun toppings, but they beef they used for generic hot dog meet. I was hoping for Polish sausage like real Chicago style hot dog. Still it's not bad and fairly priced for airport food.

    This man is the only person in the state of Illinois that was a jerk to me about breastfeeding as he refused to give me ice for my milk cooler during my 4 hour flight delay. As he only said "No, I'm too busy" I just have to assume he's a half-assed barkeep. My friends in the business could make a drink while doing 15 other things simultaneously. #badkarmawillcometoyou

    Chicago's Revolution Brewing's craft IPA, "Anti-Hero"
    Mark D.

    After having a 1 star experience with a bar at gate K-3, I walked further down the concourse to K-10 to discover Skyscrapers. It was not crowded at all and had a clean, bright atmosphere. Once again, I have a review that is based greatly on the actions of a single employee. This person would be the bartender, Carmen, a Romanian beauty with a most intriguing accent and an effusive personality. She made sure all her patrons were happy. I ordered a Goose Island IPA on tap. When she poured it, it just looked a little off color with too much foam. She immediately poured it out and said no way she'd serve that to me. I was going to order a Goose from the bottle, when she suggested another local IPA instead, Revolution Brewing's Anti-Hero. This was a very good IPA I would not have experienced if not for her. And since I was leaving Chicago, I decided to get one more Chicago Dog. You would think an airport bar would have a fairly corporate bland Dog, but their's was actually pretty good, with the requisite sport peppers and poppy seed bun! I finished up with a chilled shot of Jameson. It was a nice pour, but a tad expensive, but that's just how it is at the airport. I was having such a GOOD time with Carmen and the other patrons that when I glanced at my phone, I saw that my flight was boarding, and I had to beat a hasty exit! All in all, one of my better airport bar experiences, and I've had quite a few!

    Chicago Vienna Beef Hot Dog at O'Hare Airport
    Norman F.

    Well if you're stranded or have sometime between flights, I recommend this great little airport bar. It is little, but its got big Chicago O'Hare Airport heart. I recommend the Vienna Beef Chicago Hot Dogs. You must order it fully loaded, if you don't you ain't living

The meat portion was very generous; the beef was thinly sliced ​​but juicy and not dry or hard at all; the sausage had a rich smoky flavor, not too salty, and tastes a lot like Harbin red sausage. Al's Classic Hand-Cut Fries: They were piping hot when I received them, so touching!

Kinda skimpy on the fixings on the Chicago dog, but still gets the job done if you're craving a Chicago dog. Fries are the type that are greasy to the touch; not my fave style of fries but I know it's a well-liked one to others. Super friendly lady at the cashier (all smiles, patient, and offered menu help)! Also fast service (got my order within a few minutes). I visited on a Saturday late afternoon and it was very chill here (also shoutout to the early 2000's era music playing :p it was a vibe). Overall I'd say it's not a bad food spot at all if you want a quick bite and want to be a little away from the Magnificent Mile crowds.

It has that classic late night comfort food vibe and feels like one of those staple spots you have to try at least once. First night I ordered a polish hot dog with everything on it and a fish sandwich w/ extra grilled onions. Super cool that your order comes with fries and I added a cheese cup both times. In my opinion the fries were mid the first go around, but second time they were better. Definitely tasted better dipped in cheese. They were kinda airy in texture, if that makes sense. Polish hot dog was around a 6.5-7/10 for me. It did taste better warmed up the next day. What I was most obsessed with was the double cheeseburger and fish sandwich! both were easily a 10/10. Super good prices and worth the money. Also, the chile peppers were sooo bomb and hotter than I expected ! I wanted to eat them all, but they were packing some serious heat! The lemon Italian ice is where it's at, make sure to order one! You can also mix it with strawberry, but both times people recommended the lemon and now I see why. The line gets super active and busy past 10-11pm, but during the daytime it's way less crowded. Even when it gets packed the line moves pretty quick. They stay open late and close at 1am which is nice.

    The smell of caramelized onions hits pretty much immediately as you approach the window. No line…read moremidday. We were served quickly and got the polish sausage that comes with fries. Both were nice and hot. Fries were crispy and that first snap into the juicy sausage was worth the trip. No seating, so be prepared to eat in your car and get a bit messy. Also be warned the peppers are legitimately spicy, those serranos had my partner sweating. Glad I tried it, but not something I'd eat all the time, great late night drinking kind of food.

It was almost 11pm (they're open until 2am on Fridays.) and there were at least a dozen other vehicles in their drive-in stalls. Ordered their specialties, a Superdawg and Whoopskidawg with Superfries, Chocolate Super Malt and Black Kows. Service was fast and friendly at 11pm on a Friday. We were eating in our rental car in apx 10 min. It was cool to eat outside on a warm July night in a classic, 1950s style drive-in. The food was excellent, flavorful and fresh. I normally avoid krinkle cut fries because they are usually frozen and mushy or mealy. Not Superfries. These fresh cut fries were practically fried mashed potatoes. We loved them! The drinks were perfect. The Black Kows is basically a root beer float and served with an extra root beer "sidecar." Our only complaints were about errors with the garnishes. We specifically said we wanted all the garnishes on both dawgs and they only gave us the standard grilled onions on the Whoopskidawg and forgot the sport peppers on the Superdawg. Otherwise we loved everything. We might go back next week (before we fly home) because I really want to try their Whoopercheesie Burger and maybe a Supersundae. (Menu Descriptions/Prices) Superdawg Not a wiener - not a frankfurter - not a red hot - but our exclusive... Superdawg™. On a poppy seed bun, we tenderly place the loveliest, juiciest creation of pure beef hot dog (no pork, no veal, no cereal, no filler), formally dressed with all the trimmings, escorted by our often imitated, but never equaled, Superfries™. Served with all the trimmings - golden mustard, tangy piccalilli, kosher dill pickle, chopped Spanish onions and a memorable hot pepper. $9.30 Whoopskidawg Our char-broiled version of a Romanian, Hungarian, Polish sausage; basted in our special sauce, and served on a Whoopskiroll™, with grilled onion and a pickle. $12.05 Superfries For extra pleasure an extra measure of Superfries™. $4.35 or $6.95 - Try 'em with cheese! Supermalts and Supershakes A full pint of smooth creamy refreshment so thick we put straws in them only to prove that you can't draw them through. (We will gladly thin them down, if you prefer them that way.) Flavors: double rich chocolate, mellow vanilla, real-fruit strawberry or pineapple. $5.80 - Regular $7.10 - Large Black Kows A beverage--a dessert--a snack. Chunks of ice cream floating in a foamy sea of root beer. You can drink it. You can eat it. You can do both at once. $6.20
