This past February marked the very first time trying this place and I'm so glad I finally gave the famed wings joint a shot.
For the longest time I always thought this was just another Chicago style grill and that eventually someday I'll give it a try just to compare against dozens of other similar venues.
I was dead wrong about this place, this is NOT just another Chicago grill! Franks for the Memories is special and a real gem in Mundelein. The local residents should be proud to have this iconic wonder.
With the exception of the curly fries, we all ended up ordering different items to eat which was good so I could give an overall excellent rating for the food alone.
My wife mentioned that the buffalo wings are some of the best wings she's ever had in her life, that burger and fries were awesome and my son never complains about the chicken strips wherever he goes.

These chicken wings are a joke here. They are not even close too what the real ones are like. Just deep fried chicken wing with some crap store bought sauce thrown on them They get a way with it because people in the Midwest really do not know how they are supposed to be cooked and seasoned. If they made these wings in Buffalo they would be laughed out of the business. What they charge you for a few lousy wings is even worse. Small portions for the price and lousy wings. I wonder how bad everything else is. Probably just as cheap. Drove 40 miles for real chicken wings. AND THE...
