I ordered the garlic fries there once. Totally not impressed. In fact I didn't want to eat them because they tasted so bad. My kids wouldn't touch them either. They tasted more like paprika and a mix of spices with just a hint of garlic. Very brown colored too. If what I got was made wrong, then they don't have consistently good quality and screw up their drive thru orders really bad. And I waited a very long time for that drive thru order. Also, the grilled chicken sandwich was bland. The gyro I tried was just OK and kinda greasy.

Good Food just need to bring down the prices !!! We paid the morgage for twenty years as much as we ate there lol !!! Reduce Prices and I will give it a 5 Star !!!

I decided to order a large iced tea today with my sub, when I got to the window I asked if they had Splenda or Equal and the girl said all they have is the pink stuff. I told her I wouldn't have ordered iced tea if I had known that - most places offer the pink - blue and yellow these days. She says "oh" handed me my change and closed the window. I took off hoping that I maybe had sweetener at my desk and puzzled as to why she didn't ask if I wanted a different beverage. Luckily I have sweetener, add it and then realize the straw they gave me is almost too short for the cup....buy some taller straws and get with the times.....

the garlic fries are the absolute best in the world we have moved 900 miles away from lemont and still today whenever we get close the first stop is lemon tree for the fries. pure hometown heaven

I've been coming to this place since I was a kid and would turn in glass bottles for change to buy the famous butter garlic fries and still do the drive now 1 hour occasionally just to get them! The hot cheese sub is pretty good too!

A better alternative to chain fast food. Very good gyros, poor boys, & grilled chicken sandwiches. Their regular fries are hot, crispy and made when you order. and of course, their famous GB fires!

Nice to know you can come to Lemont and still get a Texas Burger - a holdover from the Dog-N-Suds days!
On the downside, they need to do something with that drive-through menu, to make it more presentable, easier to read and easier to make a quick drive-through decision.

Good Gyros & the Butter Garlic fries are unbelievable.
The subs are also pretty good.
