Recommendations

"The thick, smoky, snappy sausage comes nestled in a bun swiped with mustard, a ton of griddled onions packed on top and peppers tucked into the sides. it comes with fries, which are soft and limp, but no matter—this Polish is a big enough meal on its own, and totally satisfying to boot."
"Have the Polish, a thick Chicago rendition with a glistening casing that crackles under the soft, wide-cut, grilled onions that top it, made even better with the addition of sport peppers by request."
"This place delivers a terrific all-beef Polish."
"What they've done here is true New Orleans style seafood, juicy, spicy, full of flavour and totally delicious. I devour everything like a savage, pulling apart heads and claws, sucking out that sumptuous roe and meat from the shell. My hands are dripping with juices and I'm having such a good time"
"Maxwell Street is also a spot to grab a Polish sausage, but their hot dogs are just as good. This is one of Chicago's favorite places to grab a bite to eat and a must for anyone trying to get elbow deep into the city's cuisine."
