We drove from Chicago. Made the right choice tonight🩷😋😋😋😋 WOW! I missed this. For the price you pay you get high quality food and generous portions. I added chicken to my caprese sandwich and you cannot find real unprocessed chicken like this anywhere else. I should’ve saved half to take home for another full meal but it was too good to stop now I’m super fullll! The bar adds so much value to the experience. I found my favorite beers at the bar! Lots of love and thought put in this restaurant.
This was the 1st time I was here. I ordered a Gyro & Greek potatoes....it was awesome. I ate half while I was there and took the other half and ate it for dinner. It was a really nice portion and it was very good. Kudos to The Hungry Mule. I will be back again soon. A very nice guy waited on the 2 of us and was very friendly and helpful. It's nice going to eat and having the staff treat you like they have known you forever.
Was not quite what we expected. Staff was nice and the front of the restaurant was very clean. We looked at menu for a bit (kinda like a fast food setup), cuz you walk in and walk right up to register with menu lit up above. You place your order and are given a number to set on table. Wait time was a bit on the long side for what we ordered about 30 minutes easy quite possibly longer! Food came & looked appetizing. The avocado blt was tasty bread had a nice crisp crunch when you bit in but bread was really greasy from butter used to toast...just know that so you have enough napkins on hand. The gyro was light on the meat...if you can roll up your pita easily there isn't enough meat. A gyro is meant to have alot of meat from our experience. Nevertheless, the flavor was good and the tzatziki was tasty. The tomato bisque soup was good. And though I find things pricey for what they are but they are pricey everywhere these days! So, all and all it was ok.
This is my home town. One of several great restaurants we enjoy here. This is a popular restaurant, do not expect fast in/out service. Please go and relax & enjoy.
Wow! What a gem! We had great service, huge portions and delicious food. The avocado BLT was delicious. Perfectly toasted bread and a good amount of fillings. The stand out was the Greek fries with feta and a lemon oregano sauce. Like roasted Greek potatoes but in fry form! Can't wait to go back and try the caprese sandwich
They have good food. Unfortunately they skyrocketed their prices and it's just not justifiable. They are a standard Chicago style restaurant. For 2 burgers, loaded fries, sweet potato fries and cheese curds, it was $56. We didn't even get drinks. It's a bummer, because we do like this place and the staff is nice. I just don't see us ordering there anymore due to the cost. Sorry guys.
Dine-in service TAKES FOREVER (party of 5, we waited 45-minutes for our food - just several sandwiches). I'm not expecting fast food, but 10-15 minutes seems reasonable (not 3-4 times that long). I think it's because they prioritize take out orders - not the best way to treat customers (far easier for a take out person to wait a little longer, than to upset your visiting customers). They really don't "get-it" - if it's going to take awhile, give the customers a little something extra (sorry this is taking so long, would you like a bowl of soup or some coleslaw?). It takes nothing, costs next to nothing, but the goodwill goes a long way towards maintaining your business. Maybe due to the wait, but our fries weren't crispy, and the food itself was just average, especially given the prices (burgers and fries will run you $14-$18, a full slab of ribs $30, $11 for a grilled cheese). I was close to giving 4-stars, but the wait, prices, and ho-hum food just doesn't warrant a better review.
The food here was very good and the service was great! It’s a very nice place to pick up or dine in for food. I would recommend stopping by here. The service was very quick and the waitstaff is very nice. I’m sure I’ll be back here in the future.
