Maxwell's Beef - Downers Grove

I have been going here for years it's just so good. Fresh cut fries, gyros plate is like 2 or 3 meals worth make sure to order an extra pita or 2 as well. Support a small busy and enjoy good food. Hot dogs come with fries around $8 and gyro plate with fries $15.Food: 5/5

Regarding vegetarian options, I wouldn’t recommend this location as the selection is limited and everything is cooked in the same oil. On the bright side, it's kid-friendly! They offer plenty of options like fries, chicken nuggets, pizza puffs, and I think I even saw chicken tenders, though I can't recall clearly. As for parking, there are plenty of open spots available. There is also a ramp to access the strip sidewalk, but unfortunately, there isn’t designated dining space for wheelchairs.

I'm basing my review solely on the gyro I had today. The meat was tough and full of gristle, and the cucumber sauce was disappointingly bland—it’s a key ingredient, and it didn’t seem like much effort went into it. A better recipe could be found with just a quick Google search. Overall, it was such a disappointing gyro, and considering that gyros are usually hard to mess up, I can't help but feel hesitant about returning, especially if this is their standard. Additionally, the counter staff could have been more pleasant; a friendlier demeanor would have helped improve the experience.

Not a pleasant place to eat especially with the fans and AC on when it was 50 out.Italian Sausage? Stay away. Over cooked and flavorless for $8+. Fries? Hard to describe. Maybe other things are good...

As I am new to this area, finding Maxwell's Beef close to home was awesome! I know they've been around for some time but I just got here a year ago. The burgers are the best I've eaten since I've got to Illinois! I also like a few other items but the burgers are the best!Food: 5/5
