Home to America's favorite Chicago-style hot dogs, Italian beef, burgers, salads, and chocolate cake.
Reviewed By G7408IUbrucew - Atlanta
I'm an avid hotdog lover being born and raised in Chicago. While I've had my share of excellent hotdogs in standalone restaurants it's hard to find a good one in a restaurant chain...that is until I tasted the dogs from This place. Excellent! Mouthwatering! Fulfilling! Whether you eat in or do the drive through you won't be disappointed by either the atmosphere or any of the food.

This is one of the best places I've been in a long time. We had a group sit around the grill and we were entertained and fed some of the most amazing food and a huge amount of it too!

One step into this bakery and you are had. In a great way. The wonderful aroma of Wolf's baked goods will fill your senses with pleasure. We bought an atomic cake (seven decadent layers), cookies, donuts, and cinnamon bread. All were delicious. I would visit this bakery multiple times a week if it were near my home. The best!
4. Andy's Frozen Custard
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 34 reviews
Andy's Frozen Custard is a quick service frozen dessert business. We are a freestanding restaurant with drive through and walk-up service windows. We sell delicious frozen custard treats. Andy's has a wide variety of treats from simple vanilla or chocolate cones to seasonal favorites like our Pumpkin Pie Concretes and Strawberry Shortcake Sundaes.
Reviewed By Taylor B - Chicago, Illinois
Some historians trace the origin of frozen custard to Coney Island, New York, in the early 20th century. By the 1930s, the Midwest had discovered frozen custard. The Kirkhoff family of Lafayette, Indiana, opened its first stand in 1932. Today, Milwaukee sells more frozen custard than anywhere else in the world. For its part, Andy's Frozen Custard began serving in 1986 in Osage Beach, Missouri. Now it has 11 locations in the Chicago area, three in the city, and locations in nine other states. My favorite stop is at 9507 South Cicero Avenue in Oak Lawn, in the Green Oak Shopping Center. What makes frozen custard special? And why is Andy's so good? Frozen custard is cream, sugar, vanilla extract and a few other trade secrets. It is creamier than regular ice cream, contains more butterfat and is churned very slowly. The slower turning blades keep air from being mixed into the custard as it freezes. The result is a dessert that is rich, thick and decadent. It is made fresh hourly and served immediately to maintain its luxurious creaminess. Now you know. What separates Andy's from all the rest is its variety. It's an ice cream shop with a drive-through that offers frozen custard, sundaes, concretes, malts, shakes, freezes, floats, old-fashioned sodas, Italian ice, splits, custom cones and cups and 31 toppings. What more can you ask? Our favorites are the triple chocolate concrete, chocolate frozen custard blended with chocolate chip cookie dough and melted chocolate chips; butter pecan concrete, vanilla frozen custard with butterscotch and roasted pecans; German chocolate concrete, chocolate frozen custard blended with brownies, creme caramel and coconut; and Andy's banana split, vanilla frozen custard and a whole banana covered with strawberries, marshmallow creme, crushed nuts and topped with a cherry. Or you might just settle for a hot fudge sundae with pecans. Spring flavors include strawberry shortcake, blueberry and blackberries. In the summer, it's peaches and key lime pie. In the fall, the headliner is pumpkin pie. In the winter, be sure to order apple pie, candy cane, Andy nog, peppermint bars and fresh baked chocolate chip Cookie Casanova. There are so many creations and flavors but they all are based on one signature ingredient, Andy's frozen custard.
5. Giordano's

I was hosting a small pizza party for my daughter and her friends. She said that she and her friends liked Giordano's. She wanted to go to one of the downtown locations, but I reminded her that there was one in Beverly. We stopped by before the gathering and were pleased to discover that it looked just like the downtown locations. It is a little small, so if you want to have a large group, you should probably let the manager know in advance and get there right when they open. The pizza was great as usual and the service was really good.

They say all chains are created equal but the particular Dunkin donuts goes out of there way to be friendly and efficient. It is almost as if they recognize your voice in the drive through. The coffee is the best, donuts and other food items hit the spot. The have a Baskin Robins on site for that shake or ice cream treat.

The pizza here is excellent if you prefer thin crust. No comparison to Nick and Vitos. I think it is the absolute best. Service is friendly and prompt. It is a family run business and one can tell when they walk in the door. Guests are welcomed and treated with consideration. Prices are reasonable for great quality.
8. Palermo's Italian Cuisine

For outstanding Italian cuisine, look no further than Palermo's 95th. This family run, award winning restaurant specializes in authentic veal, steak, pasta, and fresh seafood creations for lunch and dinner. Established in 1961 by Ben and Nina Calderone, the family tradition still continues thru their sons, Anthony and William. <br>Sherman Kaplen of WBBM radio says, "Palermo's 95th is a true diamond among the southwest side Italian restaurants!" The grilled shrimp and calamari and the 8-finger cavetelli are outstanding. Plus check out their extensive wine and martini list. Featured on WTTW Check Please!

While staying at the Oak Lawn Hilton, I walked into Palermo's 95th anticipating another nice and quiet meal, but had such an excellent experience and meal that I went back again the next night. As a vegetarian, Italian food is always a safe choice (even if it is not on the perfect low carb diet) when not familiar with local restaurants, but I had no idea it would be this good.
Eggplant Parmigiana is my standard upon which I judge any Italian dining and Palermo's not only did not disappoint, but rose to the highest standard. Thinly sliced, expertly breaded and baked to perfection with just the right amount of mozzarella made for a superb meal. I cannot recommend it enough, but the next night I tried the Melanzane, which was even better. From the satisfied smiles I noted at the tables around me, I have no doubt that the rest of the menu was equally amazing. You simply cannot go wrong here.
As I was traveling alone and had time to spare, I elected to add dessert, which was simply sublime. I had the Molton Brownie Truffle topped with Chocolate Chip Mint Ice Cream. You must try it (but it absolutely will NOT fit your calorie plan. Ah well, it was worth it anyway ... twice!)
Last but not least, if you have a chance, ask to be in Kelly R's station. She was wonderful, contributing excellent advice, extremely attentive without being overbearing and was, in general, a breath of fresh air for a traveler who spends way too much time in restaurants across the country.
Thank You Palermo's 95th and Kelly R for a such a delightful experience!

We loved Thithi's Vietnamese and French Restaurant. We went for lunch on a Saturday and enjoyed the lunch menu. Chicken egg roll, soup, and entree. I chose Pad Thai and my husband the Thai Basil Fried Rice with chicken. Really different seasonings and very, very fresh. Light and not greasy. Atmosphere was elegant and fresh in a neighborhood that is not looking too sharp anymore. Friendly service from busboy and waiter. Carry out menu available. We look forward to going again!
