I don't think I need to say much about this place. If you know Chicago you know this is the place you want to go. Crinkle fries, grilled double cheese burgers, true Chicago style hotdogs, homemade Italian beefs. There can be a line, be patient. Oh, and the chocolate cake shake!

Great place to sit down and have tavern style Chicago pizza while being transported back in time to mirrored walls, red leather booths, and chandeliers. Family owned, the liquor store is next door.
