. "Every new restaurant has growing pains. This one is no different.\n\nA coworker and I went for lunch on a Friday. We got there at 11:10 to find the doors still locked. After trying to pry them open a few times a worker came and opened them for us, apologizing and feeling probably a little bad he forgot to unlock them. Not a huge deal but definitely the sign of a new place.\n\nThe menu was very nicely labelled and easy to read and ordering was not an issue. The place is cash only, but there is a fee-free ATM inside to grab some cash.\n\nA gentleman that ordered after us attempted to pay with a $100. The cashier was pretty nervous as he said he didn't deal with a bill that size before and didn't know if there was special procedure. The customer ended up paying in singles. Another sign of a new restaurant.\n\nLike a chipotle the kitchen is in plain view for the customers to see. You would think employees that are handling cooked food would be wearing gloves while preparing the orders. Nope, not here. Even the manager snagged a few of my fries to eat himself while I was watching. Extremely unprofessional and unsanitary (though he did offer us some overcooked cheese curds, so that's good I guess?).\n\nThe food was great. The chicago dog very authentic (being from chicagoland) and the fries were seasoned and cooked for just the right amount of time. A little pricey at $7.50* for the combo, but good nonetheless.\n\nThe thing that irked me with this place was the food handling. I expect employees to be gloved when making food and packing it into containers, especially when it's done right in front of the customer. Up the service and sanitation a bit and this place will get a 5 star review.\n\n*-Tax is included in the price on the menu board. A HUGE plus."^^ . . "3"^^ . "3"^^ . . "0"^^ .
