This place is a Wilmette staple! Always get the waffle cheese fries, and they have great dogs and burgers. Not too much seating, but it's a great place for a quick lunch!

Excellent American fare. Personable guys behind the counter cooking your food. Our kids loved the cheese fries in their teen years. My favorite is their Italian beef sandwich with mozzarella cheese.

Great Chicago style hotdog stand that serves merkts cheddar my favorite. Owner is always behind the counter he works fast and efficiently. This place is old school and will even hook up condiments! Great seasoned cris cut fries, hot dogs, Italian beef, gyros, and beyond. Worth going and coming back.

The beef sandwich mighr not be Mr. Beef's, but it's as good as Al's and Portillo's. Fair prices and a 50-60's-style diner decor and feel. Some different items fron typical hot dog stands include stuffed baked potatoes, salads, and a skirt steak sandwich. They could use a few dessert options other than ice cream.

I remember coming here as a little kid and was happy to see that they are still here, so I thought I'd swing back in again and it was everything I remember it being which was great. Will definitely be going back
