Im gonna go here for sure this summer. Ive heard so many good things about this place. The only bad thing is the long lines.



Try a weekday night...We got there about 8...walked up to the counter and were eating in 10 minutes. They said weekends the lines are down the block (which I've seen) and they run out of food...

I'm going there for Lunch today or perhaps Kumas...after the lunch rush. I'll walk there...man living in Avondale has some perks.

I think there was a whole thread about this place a while back. I've got to check it out one of these days.

El Farol, Great Burrito Joint. Used to eat there 21 years ago! Got to be our staple at 3AM.

Another good BBQ joint kind of near Toyota Park is http://www.thepitribhouse.com/.

Good subs but not open late or on Sun :( http://www.peppos.com/

Don't know which way most of you come to the park but take 294 to 95th then go west to Roberts Road. You can get to these 2 places that way easily.

Grew up in Oak Lawn myself.

How did I not notice this before?

I think someone should write a book about breakfasts in Chicago. There are more breakfast options (of very wide price and quality) than perhaps anywhere in the world here.

And I share Tony's affection for Iberico. It's been my favorite restaurant for a long time.

I'll have to add more later.
