Chili was good and Chicago Dog was excellent. The only part that was a negative was the staff. They were not the most friendly or social group I've ever been served by. Barely a word or a smile.

Food service and ambiance were great. Always have been since I was a little girl. I haven't been here in years but since I've lost my dad a few months ago I have been visiting his favorite spots...

I wish they were as good as they used to be. The last 3 times I've ate here over the past 5 years, the food has caused me to vomit after eating.
