Customer Reviews
This is the place to stop when you are craving a traditional Polish Sausage! The grilled onions are amazing and come with fries. Ironically Jim's Original is more well known for its sausage but the locals prefer Express Grill. What's really awesome is that Express grill is only 50 feet south of jim's so you can/should try both that's what l did. Express Grill sausages are a little bigger and meatier (less saltier too) and the fries are less seasoned. It's Great late night drunk food at a great price. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Chicago. stand up tables limited parking. 100% Recommend!
BEST OF BEST polish sausage in CHICAGO land. Highly recommend this place.
The polish sausage was absolutely delicious! So were the fries! The sausage was very flavorful and warm and I would definitely recommend getting the grilled onions and mustard with it. Beware the hot peppers because they are quite hot. The sausages also came with fries already which was great since they are crispy on the outside, warm, and not dry. The guy was very nice and made sure to confirm which toppings we wanted and that we got the orders that we each wanted. Our orders came out very quick too! It was unfortunate that so many people were lined up at the other stand when there was no line at this one and the food is so good! The guys in the kitchen were just waiting for people to come by and instantly went to work once we ordered! Overall great experience!
Orded Beef Polish Sausage. U can choose regular or Beef. Beef tasted the same as regular Polish Sausage. Sadly. They trying to cheat Customers. No wonder it's a crowd at the original maxwell place. They don't try and cheat their Customers. Great Customers service. Keep going pass this place. And go a few steps down. Best of luck to these people!
I have been coming here for almost 3 decades when I'm visiting the area. The best part here is they can split and grill your Polish Sausage which brings out the flavor from the center of the sausage. They also have an option to add their own homemade spicy mustard. Highly recommend it. They listen carefully to your specific instructions and they are very quick here. There is two places that compete on this street a few steps away from each other. Make sure you go to the one that says "Express Grill", the polish sausage is better in my opinion.
