"A restaurant town in the truest sense of the term, Chicago extends far beyond Polish sausage, deep-dish pizza, and world-class steaks. Thanks to corner vendors and legends like the original Pizzeria Uno, Gino's East, Gene and Georgetti, and Morton’s, thos..."

"The atmosphere compensates for the ho-hum menu, where the most interesting items include Kitchen Sink nachos and jack cheddar quesadillas (though the Chili Six Ways is quite yummy). " retorted my waitress), top it off with the World's Smallest Ice Cream S..."

"This faux-50s diner has the whole package: wisecrackin' waitstaff, chrome and vinyl decor, blaring retro rock, and a classic menu full of meat loaf, burgers, and shakes. While the concept may seem dated, tourists, suburbanites, and local families are stil..."

"Easy to locate by the rock-and-roll oldies that are piped into the parking lot where crowds gather to wait for their tables, Ed Debevic`s is a classic spot for high-school kids, children, and tourists. The decor is 1950s diner-style, with a bar done up to..."

"Gum-snapping waiters in garish costumes trade quips and snide remarks with customers at this tongue-in-cheek re-creation of a 1950s diner, but it's all good, clean fun (except perhaps when they dance on the counter without removing their shoes). The menu..."

""Ed Debevic’s has great diner food at a reasonable price and you can enjoy it in their very unusual atmosphere. While many places these day are going for the retro look, only Ed’s goes quite this far...."
