Mr C’s Hot Dogs and More

Everything pretty good here, except hot dogs aren’t Chicago style. they have sandwich thin pickle, not two wedges of tomatoes, one thin slice tomatoe, feels like under weight dog, disappointing claiming it’s still Chicago style

Look last year I couldn’t get enough of these guys. 3 – 4 times a week go with the guys but the last 3 – 4 times you guys got bad man I like to write 5 star revies but not here. Fries GREASY BAD.3 COMBOS IN A ROW COLD AND JUICE EVERY WHERE COULD MADE A BOAT OUT OF IT I was going to go back but today I called for there spectacular 99 cent dogs…3 times called… no answer Really guys your better than that!!. Pick up the pace guys… A deserving update! Hats off guys I’m lil picky but the last 3 – 4 times food is outstanding. Your hard work pops is working! Sending many Elgin friends your way… Best of Luck!

Good place to go to pick up a bite, good size menu. I had a gyro dinner, good food and fair prices.
Really enjoyed the 2 ladies up front, great personalities. It’s close to work, so I’ll be a regular.

Love this place! Fresh cut fries that are crispy not soggy. I had a Ripper dog which is deep fried. They also deep fry a Polish if you want. Another tempting menu item is the pepper and egg sandwich, both the classic way or with an Italian sausage. Sounds great! Tons of menu choices here.
Service is quick, efficient and friendly. They also cater and have delivery.

Great food, great price, sexy staff! You can have it delivered or pick up there. I recommend the gyros and the Mac and cheese. The people they have working there are damn hot! There food is just as hot! Every time I get it delivered its still hot and that’s the way I like it!

I had the Philly cheese steak and fries (which by the way claims to come with melted cheddar cheese, but is really just cheese sauce) and got horribly sick from it, ruining my entire night at work and making me miserable. Hopefully this was just a mishap, I don’t like leaving bad reviews but had to share this awful experience.

Great rib tips. Hot dogs are good. Fries are good. Decent burgers. Will be there again.

Today (10÷19÷15) I got one of the most disgusting fries I ever ordered from a restaurant in the 20 years I been living here
I wish I can post a pic cause the tips of the fries are all burned, hard texture, old looking, n when u chew one I can taste the grease
This fries can’t be from today cause I know what fries from the same day look like cause I been going there for a year now
Well I won’t quit going to get my mr burger but im stopping ordering fries
What a shame

Mrs. C is fabulous!!! She is so friendly and hospitable. The two young ladies (i will comment afgain when i remember their names) are always very friendly and helpful as well. Then there is tbe food… the food is consistently awesome! Mr. C’s is by far the best hot dog/​gyro/​burger place hands down. Ooooh and make sure you grab a piece of baklava.

This place is fantastic! They not only have the typical hot dogs, beef sandwiches, and gyros but they have a huge, extensive menu. I have been there about 8 times and everything I have tried is really great. They have the best french fries, with the skins on and you get a huge order, enough for 2 – 3 people for $ 2.50. They also have great onion rings and gyros. The staff is friendly and they are really a great place to go for very good food! Give it a try, you will be very pleased.

Very affordable! Love that we have a place like this so close! Reminds me of a place where I grew up! The food is great, everything I’ve had is good! The staff is friendly and Mrs. C is very nice! My son loves the ‘Mac n’ Cheese Hot Dog’!

Oh. My. God.
This place is so rad. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a real polish dog that tasted that good – and for so cheap!

My husband and I stop in here occasionally with our boys. Good food, extremely friendly staff (family owned) and supports local schools through fundraisers. The food can be a little pricey though, however, they do have various specials available and discounts on Unilocal

Great food! The gyros are the best around.
Mr. C burger is really good.
The have good daily specials.

Ordered via grub hub. Hah ! I never knew I can bypass Portillios. Loved the steak sandwich. Prompt delivery. Yes they also delivered Italian ice and ice cold fountain drinks. Will be back.

I just tried this place for the first time today and had such a great experience. I will come back:)

Food is still really good but I don’t think I’ll continue to order from there anymore because the delivery driver is very rude. The first time and second time he delivered to me he made sure to tell me that «the tip goes right here.» I’ve worked for tips my whole life and am very good tipper. I would say it was pretty insulting to have him indirectly demand a tip when I always leave one anyway. The third time he complained that «I had him out in this cold weather.» He is a delivery driver thats his job and I’m literally a 1 minute drive away!!!

Food = good
Customer Service = Crap
I would’ve given them 5 stars but after what happened last night, I don’t think I would ever order from them again.
Me and my fiancé placed an order for delivery to Mr C’s around 7pm last night for 2 Mr C’s burgers with 2 LARGE drinks, 2 LARGE fries, 1 regular hot dog (no FF) & 6 hot wings. The woman answering the phone said it’ll take an hour because it was busy… fine, no problem…
The food came about 1 hr: 15 min-​ish, we immediately realized our order was wrong: instead of 2 large drinks and 2 large fries, the woman gave us 2 medium drinks and 1 small fry, WTH?
So we called Mr C’s back and explained to the same woman of the mistake that SHE had done but instead of understanding and coming up with a solution to fix the problem —– the buffoon began snapping at us and said that she didn’t make a mistake because that’s what we ordered, what a bag full of B.S. Eventually, she said she’ll send out the delivery for missing fries & drinks within the next 30 mins, we asked if we should pay the extra cost and give back the wrong food, she said no because it’ll be on the house… fine, no problem… IT NEVER CAME!
Like really, what type of restaurant does that?
As a former cashier and order taker myself, I can’t imagine doing that to any customers because the customer is always right.
After 3 years of ordering, We will never order from them again.

I ate here at Mr C’s on a Tuesday evening. Service was pretty good, and pretty fast. I had a coupon from the website, on my phone, and the lady at the counter kind of gave me a hard time about using it, but she did take it.
I ordered two hot dogs, the kids had a pizza burger, and a regular hamburger. The total bill was $ 16,whixh in my opinion is a little high considering the quality of the food. I could go to portillos, and get about the same price, and get better quality food.
The hot dogs were not Vienna beef, and the buns seem to be the cheapest buns you can find in the grocery store. (in fact they seemed a little stale).
The French fries were just Ok.
I am also not a fan or places where you can’t just get your own refills, and that you have to ask the staff to fill it for you.
Overall, it’s a pretty kid friendly place, good if you need a fix quick, but as far as food quality and price., I am not sure I would endorse it.

I had a pretty good experience here! We decided to try this place out because of the Unilocal deal and were not disappointed.
The interior wasn’t all that fancy but it was comfortable and clean. I did not have a problem dining in. The service was very good! The girl who took our order was very friendly and offered suggestions. It looked like there were a few items I wouldn’t mind trying from the menu.
The food was decent. We ordered chili cheese dogs and fries. They were alright. The cheese wasn’t my favorite. It was nacho cheese. I would prefer a different kind of hot dog next time. The fries were decent too.
I would return here since the service was good and I would like to try other things from their menu.
