    Tuck them peppers under the lid.
    Tim H.

    Pretty solid beef hot dipped. My first visit was pretty good. Beef has a bit of a chew but good flavor and heat from the giardiniera. Make it a meal and you'll get a ridiculous amount of fries. Barq's root beer always a plus. Staff was a bit distracted and wasn't paying attention to the words coming out of my mouth. I joked with him about it. Dining room was well kept. A reputable 8.2 for this bad boy.

    Chickies was really good! The chicken sandwich was great! Service was great. It didn't take long to prepare & serve us our food! It's clean in this establishment. We will be back. The lemon Italian ice was good too!

    Chickies Italian Beef w/fries and burger
    Victor S.

    Definitely surpassed expectations. I ordered the Chickies Italian beef with hot giardiniera with fries and drink, plus a hamburger and small cannoli. The beef and burgers were both great. Hand cut fries were seasoned well and a bit greasy which is expected. The small cannoli was just enough sweet to finish off the meal. Service was fast and friendly, relaxing ambience.

    Food and service are great. Beefs are tasty with generous helpings of peppers. Great fries. Not a huge seating area. Comfortable inside.

    Excellent service. Quick, fresh food. Little Village burger is amazing. My kids love the pizza and ravioli. For a treat, definitely get a cannoli shake.

    I ordered a $5.95 Hot Dog & Fries and was charged $6.49 at the drive up. She also tried to short change me $1.00.

    Chickies. Clean. Friendly. Quick. Best beef sandwiches in town. What's not to like? Tonight got their new breaded steak sandwich and I'm going to mark it down from 5 stars to 4.97. Everyone knows Chicago Beef. But the breaded steak is the secret handshake of the Chicagoland area. They all vary slightly...but the common denominator is they're always too much of a sandwich. I felt like this wasn't too much...but just right. I wanted more. I wanted self loathing. I wanted judgement. I wanted the abject shame of a full breaded steak and I got mere satisfaction. Chickies forever. Forever Chickies.

    Food was good, but what restaurant business doesn't have hot tea or bread? Seriously?

    Great pizza and cold beer!!…read more Great environment. Chill vibes. The bartender working on April 10, 2026 was very friendly and helpful with suggestions.

    After getting my haircut from my barber in Hillside, I ordered from Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria…read moreonline via Uber Eats pickup. Q's has had my interest since discovering it sometime ago while in search of "pizza". At the time of my discovery, its 4.6 rating out of (120+) was the assurance I needed that I would have a quality experience, plus an endorsement from my barber. Looking through the menu, I took interest in items like the baked tilapia, eggplant sandwich, eggplant parmigiana, shrimp alfredo, pasta with broccoli sauce, and their pizza of course! Out of all, I ended up ordering their eggplant sandwich, which came with a side of crinkle cut fries. Whether it be Grubhub or Uber Eats, I love ordering online because it is convenient. Most of the time my orders are completed upon my arrival or near complete. By the time I arrived at Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria my order was waiting behind the counter during this ordering experience. Picking up was just confirming my name, ordering platform, and I was well on my way. I am grateful to have had a smooth online ordering experience because the likelihood of me ordering online again at the location is very high. As for my order, the eggplant sandwich smelled so wonderful once I got inside my vehicle and got my first whiff of it. It was then that I realized I had a 12.7-mile drive back to my residence in Chicago. If there was any time I would have loved for someone to take the wheel of my vehicle, it would have been that moment so that I could enjoy my eggplant sandwich. I was pleased to see the generous portions given of the eggplant sandwich and crinkle cut fries once I opened the styrofoam container. Oh my was it delicious! I will say this! Eggplant sandwiches taste better than the name appears if you have not had one before. I am quite positive that I will order it again as time goes by because it sure was satisfying. So satisfying and filling that I did not have any room for the crinkle cut fries, which I barely touched and ended up eating the following day. If you are looking for something to order on the menu at Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria, I recommend the eggplant sandwich because you will not be let down. In closing I had a good experience as I have indicated in this review of Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria. I could surely see myself ordering from again off-and-on when I am in the area likely for a haircut. And as it was introduced to me via Uber Eats, I share my endorsement of it as well with you all on yelp. Service: 4 | Atmosphere: 4 | Food: 5 | Overall Experience: 4 ~ Today's choices shape tomorrow. ~ Thomas G
