    Reuben with butter garlic fries
    Irene Kitty L.

    When we lived in Palos Hills, we used to go to Windy City Subs very often. Probably once a week and it has always been a treat. Prices are reasonable and everything tastes pretty great. Today I shared a Reuben sandwich with an order or butter garlic fries with the hubby and it was absolutely fantastic! Nice and hot and crispy. Will continue to visit this place if I'm ever in the area. One of the things that makes me a bit sad now that I've moved. Continue the great service, cute and clean restaurant and delicious food!

    Italian sandwich. It's ok.

    Not too bad. Not too good either. If I could give 2.5 stars, I would. Being open til 2 am, is a huge plus. The ONLY reason they are 3 stars. I have had much better, but if you want a deli sandwich @ 1 am, where do you go, y'know???

    Gyros Plate w/Fries.

    Gyros Plate with fries piled on Chicago Style. Meal comes hearty enough to grab extra pita and enjoy 2 good size sandwiches. Cashier was prompt and professional. Nice seating area to eat, Also Soda machine still out front for a refill, something getting more scarce as retailers have started hiding condiments ect behind register. I'll be back to try a Sub soon.

    Stopped by on a whim a few days ago. This place has been here forever but I finally stopped to see if the food is as good as I'm told it is!! So let me start by saying that getting your food is no issue. Drive-thru works nicely, but be warned that the traffic on 111th can be loud so you might not be able to hear as well. Got to the window, payment was easy as they accept electronic payments in addition to cash. Got the food, and it was a wrap!!! The food is standard fare: burgers, hot dogs, fries, things of that nature. I ordered the hot dogs, a double cheeseburger and garlic fries. The hot dogs were not mine, but they were good (I got a bite! )! The garlic fries were to die for, they were that good!! Let me warn you all also: they don't skimp on the fries. They give you a LOT!!! I am 238 pounds and I could not finish them! Now for the double cheeseburger, it was good, but my only criticism is that there was so much lettuce (which can have a higher water content) on the bread that the bottom bun got soggy. Let me be clear, the burgers were nicely done, though. So maybe they can go easy on the lettuce in general? Anyhow, I'll definitely go back. Good food worth the money, especially those garlic fries!!! Food......A- (would be an A+ if not for the soggy bun) Ambiance....B Price....B Customer service....A+

    So this was the first time i've eaten here and the line was out to the street. However, these employees were timely with orders during peak hours. I ordered a Gyro meal so it came with fries and a fountain drink. The fries and sandwich were very tasty and fresh. The meat was very fresh and flavorful. The fries were crispy and salty to my liking. I would eat here again. I've taken photos of their current prices and menu items and they have a nice selection. Also their staff was excellent with service and efficient with managing customers during lunch hours. I would recommend this establishment.

    If you have hours set until 2am maybe you shouldn't have the "grill off" 25 minutes before so people can't order. Set your time to 1:30 if that's the case. Gave this place 3 times and it's always something ridiculous. I'd rather spend my money somewhere else and avoid it. Plus it's hit or miss on the food when you do get it. Might be good might be crap.

    King Turkey (12 inch sub) with only two slices of Turkey.
    T K.

    I'm not sure if I'm just getting different chefs preparing the food but I ordered the largest Turkey sub (KING) and it came with two slices of Turkey on it and that was it. I like this place, their food is decent , LOVE their hours but they seem to really skimp on the sandwiches.

    Gyro and fries

    Wow. I am so happy I finally made my way to Windy City after driving by it on my commute for many years. Basically, I wanted a gyro, and I wanted to dine in. This place is so clean, it's gleaming, and the sunlight just pours in. I don't know of a fast food place with a dining room this nice. Not a single crumb in sight. Really. It was so peaceful too; the energy was just right. Ok. The food. Amazing. I don't eat fast food often, so when I do I want it to be worth it. My meal was made to order, and it came out so hot and fresh. I enjoyed every bite. All the while, the staff was working together nonstop. Never a moment of nothing for them. Whether they were cooking, cleaning, stocking, they were moving the entire time. They were so pleasant and happy. Makes me think they like working there. Most establishments are short staffed. Not here! Thank you for a GREAT dinner. Thank you for your hospitality. Can't wait to do it again.

A member from the staff locks and unlocks the door when there's room for more capacity. There are menus outside and inside to help you decide. Tastings are available, though it can slow down the speed of the line. There are only a few, 2-seater tables for the option to dine in. There's more seating available near the entrance. Think forest preserve, picnic style. Parking can also be tricky, but there are spaces right out front and directly across the street. There's a tight lot in the back. For my first visit, I had the lavender honey. It was so good, if you like sweet like I do. The portion sizes were great for the price. I look forward to many more visits to try the various flavors. Worth noting: they do have ready made ice cream cakes, candy and muffins for purchase.

Went there on a busy and hot Saturday and we expected to be in a line for a while and it was worth the wait. My son got a chocolate chocolate chip and I only wanted a taste and they offer this tiny little pony cone which was absolutely the perfect amount of ice cream I wanted. Just a taste. I got the rum raisin and the hubs got chocolate peanut butter and it was just perfect. Creamy and delicious! Place was PACKED but they do offer seating indoor and outdoor. We were lucky enough to get a tiny table and enjoyed our ice cream. If you're ever in the area, The Plush Horse is a must visit!

    No whipped cream? WTF is this ? Must be owned by BLACKROCK…read more I honestly don't understand how a place like Andy's Frozen Custard can open two minutes away from a legendary institution like The Plush Horse and completely miss the mark on what makes an ice cream experience great. First off--no whipped cream? Seriously? That's not some exotic topping... it's foundational. Whipped cream has been paired with ice cream for generations--it's part of the classic American dessert experience. To not even offer it is like a burger place refusing to carry cheese. It's not edgy, it's just lazy... Beyond that, the overall experience feels sterile and soulless compared to the character and nostalgia you get down the street. Places like Plush Horse have been creating memories for decades--real ice cream, real atmosphere, real tradition. What's frustrating is thinking kids might grow up associating this place with ice cream, when a true gem is right around the corner. Do yourself a favor: skip the disappointment and go where ice cream is done right. Go to Plush Horse. Andy's is trash

When I got home I was sadly disappointed! My cup was only 2/3rds full and it was already melting. There were a few oreos on top, but not many. As I ate it I wondered when I would hit the caramel and hot fudge. However, I never did!!!! The girl that made it put not one drop of either ingredient in it! And she was very unpleasant. What a ripoff. Stinks that ice cream places not only overcharge to keep profits up, but also save me money by not delivering on the product. I'm just going to family owned places in the future. Andy's doesn't deliver!
