Poppys - Waukegan

Quick and friendly service makes it a great alternative to cooking at home. The environment feels very safe, with no loiterers or begging disrupting the atmosphere.

Carlos and Denise provide the best customer service I’ve ever experienced at any restaurant. From the moment you walk in, you get a warm, homey feeling that’s typically found in the southern states. I've been back multiple times since I first discovered this place about two weeks ago, and it has consistently been delicious. I highly recommend the mozzarella sticks and cheeseburgers!

I gave this place only one star because it was my first visit and I was disappointed by the cleanliness. The restaurant is dirty both inside and out. While they do wear gloves during food preparation, the walls are covered in grime. I ordered hot dogs to go and a hamburger. Unfortunately, the hot dogs were awful; the sausage looked like plastic and was impossible to bite into. On the other hand, the hamburger was quite good.

Excellent food for the price. Not sure why people expect them to have a drive thru as fast as chain places when everything here is prepared fresh. If you can't wait a bit, call ahead and pickup inside.

It wasn’t absolutely perfect but it was pretty darn close. Great prices, good sized portions and tasty food. Our kids really enjoyed their food and my gyro lasted for two meals.
