THERE'S A NEW CHICK'N TOWN…read more I'm not vegan or vegetarian. I love my meat! Honestly I eat everything from seafood to steak to vegetables. I don't play favorites. It's all about balance and moderation when it comes to my meals. I've not been a fan of fake chicken breast because it never tastes right. I'm was really blown away by Skinny Butcher Crazy Crispy Chick'n! These chicken sandwiches really taste like chicken. The breading on the outside is crispy and the sandwich bite is fantastic. I'm truly amazed at how fantastic these plant based chicken sandwiches tasted. We ordered the Original Chick' Sandwich, Buffalo Chick'n Sandwich and the Chick'n Parm Sandwich. All of the sandwiches came on a potato roll. Which is honestly the best roll ever made. It's soft and absorbs all of the flavors. It's the perfect bun for any sandwich. The Original Chick' Sandwich comes with a mayo sauce and pickles. The Buffalo Chick'n Sandwich has a mayo based blue cheese sauce plus pickles. The buffalo sauce is really tasty with just the right amount of kick. This sandwich was definitely my favorite. I truly loved the spicy kick. I thought I was eating a real chicken sandwich. I also needed to try the Chick'n Parm Sandwich. Hey I'm Sicilian! Let's put this place to the rest. It was fried golden brown and topped with marinara sauce, oregano, fresh basil and melted mozzarella, provolone & parmesan cheeses. My Nonna would have thought this was a fresh real chicken breast. I highly recommend all of the plant based sandwiches here. They also have waffle fries! It's been since forever since I had waffle fries. I loved how tasty they were. It reminded me of being a kid. I'm not an expert when it comes to plant based food. I just want my food to taste good and not be filled with chemicals. They advertise that the plants used in this chicken are pea based and not soy based. That seems really important but I'm too lazy to search my web browser for more info. If you know the answer sent me a message. I'd love to know. Yes I'm giving you homeowner to do in my review. It's all about interacting on Yelp. This location is very unique. It is a ghost kitchen located in a Wow Bao on Clark and Diversey. You can order through Grub Hub or Uber Eats for delivery or pickup. I decided to pick it up because I didn't want my chicken sandwiches getting soggy, as they toured all of Chicago on their way to my house. Pick up was super easy. When I walked into Wow Bao I told the guy I was here for my plant based chicken sandwiches. He chuckled and immediately knew who I was. He then asked for a few minutes, as the chef in back finished building them. Plant based food is not a replacement for real meat. It's meant to help feed our planets growing population. If it can lesson the footprint, then I'm all for it. I really don't miss the meat at all, especially when it tastes this good. So if you're looking to go meatless, then this is your place. The sandwiches are solid and I highly recommend you try the Skinny Butcher because his chicken is crazy good.

Stopped by The Wiener's Circle and had a fun Chicago experience. I had the Chicago style hot dog,…read moreand it was exactly what you'd want, classic toppings, plenty of flavor, and a solid dog overall. What really makes this place stand out is the personality. The staff is famously surly, and that's clearly part of the experience, so if you know that going in it adds to the fun. It's more playful than serious and definitely gives the place its own character. I also thought it was cool how they give out free dogs after Bears wins. That kind of generosity and local spirit makes it feel like a true neighborhood staple. Definitely a memorable stop and one of those places that feels uniquely Chicago.

They had some options on the menu but we both opted for the Vienna Red Hot ("char"). It's a solid dog. The wiener is, perhaps unsurprisingly, the star of the show. It's got a terrific char and an irresistible snap. The flavor is better-than-average, too. The condiments didn't really do much for me, and I found something on there just way, way too salty. (The pickle, maybe?) Anyway, it's a quick, cheap, easy meal. I'd certainly eat it again.

BAH HUMBUG! Gotta do my thang and bring down the rating. I think Lincoln Park is turning into Wicker Park, the population of hipsters is taking over Chicago and breeding! It's the end times. At least the end of good food as hipsters especially when high and drunk don't know good food or rate it right.

At 7pm the parking lot was full, and I had to go down the street, not far! My partner went inside, said it was very busy, and that it was an overstimulating environment. He noted that at one point they had 40 hamburger patties on the grill at one time, a true machine. We got the fries, cheese sauce on the side. A hot dog with nothing on it, and two double cheese burgers. The burger was great, very juicy, the toppings (chopped fresh white onions, lettuce, pickles, sauce, tomato's) popped. They were all great. The patties were a little small but they were greasy, and great. The fries were made fresh and you could tell. Great meal for fast casual eating. Also very affordable!!!

I ordered the ice cream on my mobile app,and once I reached the store, the server said their ice cream machine wasn't working, and offered cookies instead. We didn't get any sauce in our orders with the burgers, so we requested for a ranch sauce and the server's face seemed as if we were asking for some money out of his pocket and said we'll have to pay extra. But he didn't care for the fact that we had to settle for cheaper cookies instead of the ice cream which seemed a bit odd, as I haven't experienced such an attitude in any other BK in the town. The store itself is clean and the parking space is ample.

They have a great…read moremenu that consists of beef sliders, hot dogs, chicken tenders, Italian beef, fries of course and many more. I've been coming here for a few years and also went to their old location years ago. If you're looking for a good fast food fix without going to your chain fast food joints, Devil Dawgs is a nice option to have. Came from a doctors appointment a few blocks away and after getting pricked with needles 6 times, I needed to treat myself so I thought of Devil Dawgs. Got the big Chicago style hotdog - cuz who puts ketchup on hotdogs??? It did not disappoint with the pickles, sport peppers, tomatoes and celery salt! I really love their fries as well. It's the perfect combination of hot and crisp and slightly burnt at the tips for that additional flavor. It's already nicely salted so all you need is ketchup! It is a little pricey for fast food as I don't believe they have combo specials available. Everything is a la cart. They do have a nice clean space inside to dine in. Both regular and tall tables are available. I suggest dining in because who wants cold fries??!!

As with most Metropolitan cities the Greeks came first, then the Italians and both lay claims to…read moremajor influence in any cities cuisine, but being a true cold weather town there is a heartiness that is usually indicated by cheese on everything, they stay true to the first gen flavor roots and go with portions over empty calories. It's one of the best places to get top tier cultural flavors. The location is perfectly central, approachable, but authenticly local. Decor is as you'd think a beef shop in Chicago to be, service is a little more on the cheerful side due to the Greek influence. Prices are on par with dining in the area for quality Chicago. My go to order is the Italian Combo with a gyro platter to snack on the sliced meat and fries. My 2nd fav order is the Big Daddy burger (tsaiziki and bbq on the side) and a Maxwell Street Polish giving you a bit of everything Chicago. Usually places evolve to the changing wants of the neighborhood, but they sell Greek and Italian equally well. They have always done beef tallow, and it's a shame they have to mention it becuase the rest of the world went away from that when they didn't. Great fries, and a good amount per order. I have yet to try the salads, but it's hard to wow people with them when it doesn't say Salad's in the name... The beef is tender (gyro, roast beef, burger), well seasoned, rendered. The breads are toothsome, soft, crunchy, chewy. The sauces and condiments are crunchy, smooth, blended and balanced. The pizza puff is another far less known Chicago staple for the picky eaters, they also have chicken tenders for the kids. All in all it's a 1st rate stop off for all things Beef and all things Chicago.
