Great Escape

Reviewed By mawaca2018

I visited the restaurant during a business trip during the recent polar vortex. Temperatures were below zero but the Great Escape was warming and welcoming. The food selection was varied and tasty and the service prompt. My business colleague and I were quickly seated. Portion size and price were good. A gem of a local restaurant worth trying.

Gale Street Inn

Reviewed By WellTraveledChicago

Walking into Gale Street Inn is rather like stepping back into the past. It's been a neighborhood favorite in Jefferson Park for generations. Dark wood, atmospheric lighting, lots of regular customers, and selections that aren't jazzed up with sriracha sauce or lemon grass - just traditional, delicious food that's well prepared and served with considerate attention - no silly gimmicks, just attentive, helpful service. What a pleasure! The crab cakes were excellent (and as an appetizer 1/2 price before 6:00 pm). The ribs here are famous and the barbecue sauce is raved about. It's a neighborhood that's northwest but still in the city. It might not be on your regular route, but it's worth going out of your way to eat here.

Outback Steakhouse

Reviewed By NormanSantaFe

We overnighted in Chicago at the Springhill Suites near O'Hare. While the hotel's website did not say it had a restaurant, an Outback Steakhouse is adjacent to it, accessible from it, and offers room service delivery. We had dinner there last night.We aren't "steak" people. My wife had French onion soup and a caesar salad, while I had the 7 oz. salmon, fresh vegetables, and a Ceasar salad. We each had 2 drinks.The ambiance was very good - not too noisy, which is not the case with a lot of Outbacks. The service, while a little slow, was very professional. The food was very good, particularly my meal.

Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse

Reviewed By Breeze78

What a great place to enjoy after a day at the convention center directly across the street and beside several hotels. The staff is well trained for this white linen establishment. They have a bar room with tables able to handle singles / couples. Ample seating options and party spots available, would recommend reservations as it does get busy. They seem to deal well with the deluge of orders and service does not suffer. This place exceeded my expectations and will return again and highly recommend.

Superdawg Drive-In

Reviewed By Taylor B

Maurice and Flaurie Berman, the co-founders of Superdawg Drive-In at 6363 North Milwaukee Avenue in Chicago, at the corner of Milwaukee, Devon and Nagle, are gone. But the legendary, iconic, one-of-a-kind hot dog stand they founded in 1948, with car hop service, a Chicago-style hot dog like no other and the traditional figures on the roof are still there. My wife and I have been making periodic trips to Superdawg since we got married in the 1970s. But friends have been loyal customers since the 1950s. A trip to Superdawg recalls memories of the 1950s, when drive-ins and car hops were so popular, when you drove your father's car for the first time and took a date along. We recently drove up North Milwaukee Avenue to get our monthly Superdawg fix. Superdawg isn't a weiner or frankfurter or red hot. It's a slab of juicy pure beef that is bigger than any other hot dog, no pork or veal or cereal or filler of any kind, with all the trimmings--mustard, piccalilli, Kosher dill pickle, chopped Spanish onions and hot peppers on a poppy seed bun. With an order of Super Fries. And wash it all down with a chocolate milk shake and large mug of root beer. Eating in your car never tasted so good.

The Blossom Cafe

My cousins treat themselves to a breakfast here on special occasions and took us while we were visiting. We were so glad they did. Months later, we still reminisce over the fry-up we had at Blossom Cafe. Huge portions, beautifully cooked and great service. It's a bit of a drive from Chicago...but worth it.

Perry Mac's Restaurant

Reviewed By Lisahrockisland

Great place to stop for a quick but delicious breakfast. Stopped here to eat before we headed out on a 3 hour drive to go home after returning from a long vacation. The reviews that we read did not disappoint. The service was fast and friendly and the food was delicious and portions were generous I grew up in Park Ridge but moved away before trying out Macs. Anytime I am back in the area, I will head here to eat!
