The menu is built on what that stretch of the Midwest actually eats for lunch -- gyros, Italian beef, Vienna Beef hot dogs, burgers, and Greek plates -- and the burger locals nicknamed the Godfather is the one people specifically come back for. The operation has grown past the original Roosevelt Road counter: there's now a separate food truck running under its own branding, a customer rewards program for regulars, and online ordering for pickup or delivery.
Third-party delivery through ChowNow is reportedly unreliable, so regulars default to picking the order up themselves, and there's a patio for anyone who'd rather eat on-site than take it to go. Closed Mondays.
