Happy Friday Chicago! We have some awesome specials that we will be serving through the end of the month.

The Chicken Giardiniera Melt uses giardiniera, garlic mayo, muenster cheese and our smoked sliced chicken breast.

If you are a buffalo sauce fan, our Buffalo Style 1/2 Smoked Chicken is for you. It’s tossed in garlic buffalo sauce and served over fries with crispy red onions and fried picked jalapeños.

They say there are only two seasons in Chicago: winter and construction. Unfortunately, we are getting both of them at the same time. We appreciate that it takes a little longer to get here while the guys are working which is why for the next two months on Monday through Thursday when you dine in, your second drink will be on us.

The southbound lane on California is still open and street parking is free on California and on Wabansia. Come say hi!
