I’ll admit MEXICO Uno is not what it once was, but bow your heads for Rosa - she passed yesterday.

El Gallo de OraI grew up just a few blocks from there on 61st and Central Park. Not sure about California Ave, but there was an El Gallo (sp?) on 63rd and Sacramento. That was always busy and had great burritos.

Tell Freak Edgytim says hello good dudeIs there one? LOL Joneseez isn't all that bad if I had to pick. But honestly, I would rather stay home in Wilmo or run to CC then hit the game. Although I guess that new place Top Fuel Saloon is supposedly better than your typical Braidwood hangout. Maybe I will check it out this weekend and report back.
It's Oktoberfest in Manteno...once Streator & Manteno gets over, the beer tent sponsored by Sam Adams is the place to start on Main Street along the railroad tracks downtown...Right across Main from the beer tent are two establishments...Anthony's Pizzeria is the longest standing restaurant and bar in downtown, attracts many families after Friday night ballgames, good food, Friday night all you can eat fish specials, relatively cheap drinks...Next door is Stampede, more of a nightclub, no real food (Anthony's will deliver), attracts generally a younger crowd...down First Street is the Pub at Midtown, upscale place, Mexican restaurant attached to it and a pizza place (Silvanos) also in the building...On the corner further down First is the American Legion, decent food on Friday nights but usually closed early...Going down the alley between Main and the Pub to the north is Sammy's Pizza on the corner of Second & the alley - which has been developed into the "Square on Second" this summer - Sammy's is the latest addition to the Kankakee Fifth Avenue Sammys Pizza empire (Kankakee, Momence, Bourbonnais, Peotone) - good food, adult atmosphere, beer garden (Sammy's took over from the closed Durbins, previously Pizza Stone)...out of downtown would take you north on Main to the Sportsman's Club, with a nice bar and big patio looking over Lake Manteno - nice pregame spot for a beer with a view...Finally on the corner of Locust (Rt. 50) and second is Route 50 North, a sports bar with a nice beer garden...
Sterling Warrior... Though I’m a fan of Angelos, my go-to in Sterling is Al & Ledas. Now I can’t stop thinking of their Supreme!!!When visiting Sterling, Angelos Pizza is addicting.
If the weather is decent next Friday night, I am going to watch Montini play Fenwick at Triton JC. It will give me an excuse to go to Gene and Judes and grab some hot dogs.

Or Kelly’s for tacos!How about some chicken george and Jan sauce?
Al’s Beef with fries and THEN cross the street to Mario’s. oh my gosh!If you get the opportunity to attend a St. Ignatius football game prior to Sept. 15, a must go is Mario's Italian Lemonade on Taylor. The stand is only open from mid-May thru mid-Sept. but it is absolutely addictive. I am a watermelon guy, but it is all great. If you order Italian lemonade anywhere else after having Mario's, you want to dump it. Their is Mario's and everyone else.
KANELAND.... Schmidt's tap in downtown Elburn. Just north of the tracks, east side of it. 47. outdoor and indoor eating usually bands on the weekends. Four bags set up outside. Awesome patio and my favorite thing on the menu there is the BRAT Burger. every time I go there I say I'm going to get something different and I just can't.

10-4 on that Edgy, sometimes we would even drive from ISU for their chicken...If mI'm anywhere near Sterling.....Rips Chicken in Ladd...
Love the place, but the minimum hour and a half wait for a burger after you ordered it is ludicrous.If you ever end up in Yorkville I’d suggest Crusade Burger Bar.
Gross. Haven't we been through this?I’ll admit MEXICO Uno is not what it once was, but bow your heads for Rosa - she passed yesterday.
Did you read what you quoted?Gross. Haven't we been through this?
Yikes! I need to read more carefully. I saw Mexico Uno and my impetuous side came out. She died? She was very nice. Food is not good. Does her daughter still own the bakery across from JL's?Did you read what you quoted?
Sweet C’s is still an ongoing enterprise.Yikes! I need to read more carefully. I saw Mexico Uno and my impetuous side came out. She died? She was very nice. Food is not good. Does her daughter still own the bakery across from JL's?
Nice! Very nice family. Have you tried the Mexican joint on NW Hwy next to the ice cream shop that use to be Ben and Jerry's? That place is excellent and the owner is pretty cute.
I don’t get to Palatine much any more. HQ at 90/Lee and one kid lives in Lincoln Park - so that’s where I dine locally. Oyster Bah is a favorite.Nice! Very nice family.
