Filip Trbovic: Best order: cheese dog with onions and mustard. Fries (ask for well done) with a chocolate shake! Mmmm
Diana Sanborn: I highly recommend the breaded steak sandwich or the chicken parm sandwich. They are both delicious! If you get the chicken parm, be sure to ask for mozzarella as the sandwich doesn't include cheese.
@DjayRage Gerardo Herrera: Get the big sized breaded steak & share it with someone. Its way too much for a single mere mortal.

Ron Willis: Love the Grilled Chicken Pita my favorite spot for that and they open late
Jason T: It's pronounced YEAR-OH not jyro
Serious Eats: The gyro meat is some of the crispiest around, cooked until it's deeply caramelized and brown. The whole package is an absolute mess, but it's one that's done right.

L. Haynes: The cheese dogs are the greatest.
Joe Sesso: Featured on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations. Get the Mighty Dog. It's a hot dog with a tamale, chili, and cheese all on the same bun. Get all the fixings on it as well
Serious Eats: This weathered looking stand on the South Side is famous for the mother-in-law, a corn meal tamale in a hot dog bun with chili on top.
