Let's begin by saying If 0 stars was an option that would absolutely be my choice. I was excited to try this new restaurant and its variety menu. However, after my meal today I would HIGHLY discourage anyone wasting their hard-earned dollars by choosing this place. I ordered the Mac Daddy Dog and the original Mac n' Cheese. This is honestly the most disgusting meal I have ever ate in Chicago. For starters how are you going to be known for your Mac n' Cheese and it's not real Mac n' Cheese with FLAVOR. This tastes like a five-year-old who made this after school without parental supervision. It's nowhere near AUTHETIC!! Disgusting even with no flavor. Now on to the hotdog, flavorless, and over consumed by unnecessary ingredients. This is nothing but a gentrified hotdog! A typical hotdog that's appears to be from your nearest gas station. This meal was so awful, I didn't even finish it. Nor did my friend, he was also disgusted. I immediately put everything that was uneaten which was all of it, back in the bag, then a garbage bag and disposed of it outside because this "food" is not even worthy of sitting in my home garbage can. $32 of trash. . Pros: Food was ready, and the French fries are delicious.
Seriously, do not waste your money here. Joey G's Mac n' Cheese is only going to be good if you're highly intoxicated or off some serious drugs unless you just naturally have no taste buds because I promise, the mac n' cheese has no flavor. All these 4-5 star reviews...
Read moreWe’ll get to the inedible macaroni and cheese covered up under a blanket of toppings that tastes good enough for you not to realize that you’re eating flavorless yellow paste (their “cheese”) for the first few bites, after we talk about the service. The woman behind the counter looked completely miserable just being there, followed by a rather rude and abrasive “Well can I help you?” while my friends and I were looking at the menu trying to decide what to order, and we were the only people in the restaurant with no line behind us. When she had brought our food and drink to the table, I said thank you to which she didn’t respond with anything more than a side eye. The food didn’t take too long to get to our table, and at first glance it looked delicious. After the first few bites, my whole table quickly realized we had been fooled by the appearance of our food and the tacky “Best in Illinois” papers they had taped to the walls, because it was actually hard to continue trying to eat it after the first few bites. Best mac & cheese in Illinois? There’s no way this is even the best macaroni on the block. Just overpriced noodles covered in a bright yellow sauce that would be an abomination to even call cheese, and smothered in one of their many toppings. A blind person who had their taste buds surgically removed and no prior training in a kitchen would make a better macaroni and cheese...
Read moreThere’s a lot going on here! They should expand or decrease whats being sold. Everything is in a corner and there are too many signs where it gets overwhelming. I got the Buffalo Mac. The Buffalo chicken was just cooked chicken with Buffalo sauce and the Mac and cheese itself wasn’t seasoned, not even some pepper, it tasted like velveeta and wayyyyy too much cheese for the cheese noodle ratio. I also got the mozzarella sticks and again it was barely seasoned. It really was just fried cheese, didn’t get a cup of marinating nor was I asked if I wanted one. I lastly got a scoop of ice cream and it tasted bland like there was not enough sweetness to it. I felt like I was eating soft ice. Overall I waited 10 min for everything to be made.
I don’t wanna be a hater, I actually really wanted to like this place but I was severely disappointed and wish I just went home and made a box of Mac and cheese and air fried frozen buffalo strips from target. That combo is actually really good you should try it! It’s way better than what I got...
