Horrible food! Worst I have ever had! First, I'm told the…read morehot dog special is "beef-and-pork" dogs, and if I wanted all-beef dogs, it would be a little more -- The bill went from over $9 to $14!!! The hot dogs were mush -- A good Chicago dog should have a snap when you bite into it -- These were terrible!! And the "old fry trick" was used -- The top part of the bags had fresher fries, and the bottom had cold fries that were sitting around for a while. Just nasty food. I have not been here in over 5 years for these same reasons, thought I would give them another chance, and unfortunately nothing has changed. Remember, if somebody tells you they have been in business for 40 years, that means they have been pulling these same tricks on customers for those 40 years! There are great chicken shawarma restaurants in the area, for the same or less money go get yourself a delicious, freshly made sandwich that never disappoints -- You will not be as sorry as I was that I ate here! Terrible food!

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a gentleman behind the counter. He was friendly and very helpful as I was obviously there for the first time. The place has got an Old West theme; probably left over from the 70s or 80s, but that's why I love it more. Plenty of seating inside but I opted to sit outside on the picnic tables out front. I had the brisket sandwich with coleslaw, beans, and a side of fries. There was a fair amount of brisket on the sandwich itself. So much so I was surprised it was very tasty and pretty moist. Could have been a wee bit moister. I wasn't as crazy about the beans but I think that's a matter of taste. Something in the seasoning. That being said, the fries were amazing! I'm not usually really concerned about french fries but every single one of these were crispy and had the perfect amount of salt. I also very much liked the creamy coleslaw. I look forward to coming back and trying the ribs and maybe some Greek specialties.

I've had their BBQ ribs and other items in the past, but decided to try their Beef Brisket Sandwich. The sandwich had a fair amount of brisket, and I especially liked how they lightly toasted the roll, similar to an Italian beef roll, nice and chewy. It's counter service, and when your order is ready, they announce your number on your receipt. Gemato's is a good place for families or large parties with plenty of seating.

It was my first time coming here and I wanted to quick bite to eat. I order for my family and I order chesse sticks. I was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED that they only gave me 4 cheese sticks and not 6 like others places in the area do. I WOULD HAVE RATHER GONE TO MICKY'S THEY HAVE GREAT TASTING FOOD AND GIVE YOU TWO OPTIONS when it comes to ordering CHEESE STICKS! THis placed dident even bother to advertse how many cheese sticks were in the order (which was only 4 small ones) I paid MORE THEN 50 CENTS a piece for each cheese stick! i WILL NEVER GO TO THIS PLACE AGAIN ! read more

My favorite local fast-food spot offers quick service and consistently great food. The large milkshakes are enormous! Although it's a bit on the pricey side, I believe you get what you pay for. This drive-thru has never messed up my order, no matter how complicated it is, which is a huge plus! The best part? It's open until 2 a.m. every day. Finally, there's a late-night food option that isn't just a burrito or a small burger you'll regret eating later. read more

Just needed some more seasonings added to the batter to give it more flavor, but overall it wasn't bad. From what I observed, this place is good for the breakfast options. I also ordered a cheese burger, to see if it was worth it. And in my opinion it didn't meet my approval. I am interested in trying their Gyro plate. So I will be back to try that.
