A: I stopped at Matt's for a quick bite while attending a conference. The location was perfect -- close to the convention center, yet not right in the middle of all of the hubub. The park was pleasant to walk next to while heading over, but I was glad to have someone with me who had been there before. While ordering, the staff was polite and friendly, noting our convention badges and asking where we were from. They recognized the members of our group that had been there the previous day. I ordered the two corn-dog combo; others in my group ordered the hot dog combo and the burger combo. The fries were piping hot and perfectly seasoned. Our corn-dogs were the perfect combination of golden batter and awesome dog, and the burger and regular dogs were gone before I could ask the others how they were :) The ketchup on the table was a little low, but I think we were there just after the lunch rush, so that was understandable. By the time I was ready for a refill on my diet coke before heading out, there was a small line at the register. The cashier waved me to the front of the line when he saw my cup, so I didn't have to wait while others ordered -- I was highly surprised, and very thankful for his consideration. I wish more restaurants did that. One of the earlier reviewers mentioned confusion with picking up baskets right next to the utensil area -- when I visited, there was a young woman running food out (she called the number and waited for the correct person to raise their hands). It seemed to work much better than having customers pick up their order. I would definitely recommend Matt's Chicago Dog for anyone in the area.

A: I had a nice time here but wont be back too often unless we have someone visiting from out of town who wants to go.. The drink prices are too high for what you get. I paid $10 for a tiny cup of margarita. My friend paid $18 for a bigger one but you still didn't get enough for the price compared to a lot of other places around here. 2 of our friends decided to wait outside and not purchase anything after seeing the prices and size of drinks. I wanted to order at least 1 to try it. I did think it tasted good just not good enough for the price. It was kind of dead in there too but maybe it was the hour we were there. We sat at the bar and just got a drink menu so I don't know about the food and might have to try that out someday. The staff was friendly and the place was clean inside. After 1 drink we decided to head to another place where we could get more drink for our buck. I really had high hopes for this place and wish I could write a better review but I have to be honest based on my experience.

Q: negative

A: Had an appt with this DR. This past Tuesday. Awful, awful. First of all the appt was wrong ( according to the front office personnel). I was made to wait 30 minutes before I asked about my appt time. And was told I had the wrong time. Finally called back and then made to wait another 20 minutes, while sitting with my paper gown on. So, keep in mind I have been going to this dr for over 25 years. Exam by the dr actually hurt, I know this exam can be uncomfortable but not hurt! Then we go to blood being drawn, and possibly changing up meds. Drop off new temporary script, and pharmacy notices the script is completely different and questions it. Calls the dr office to be told by staff, we are to busy right now. Call back later. Really??? So by Thursday, pharmacy has sent numerous fax and email to which were not answered. So, I call dr office and of course told they never received anything and have not spoken with pharmacy. I was there when pharmacy called. Ok, by this time my patience is gone. I explain I'm tired of the incompetence of the personnel and I want my scripts ok'd and faxed. Or yes I would be showing up in the f'ing office, yes I said that. Which when I got a call back from "assistant mgr" my scripts would be filled a n d IM BEING dropped. Seriously???? Would seem woman on the phone with me embellished on our conversation . My advice, stay from this dr and his practice- the office personnel are very rude, he rushes when examining you, causing pain and he can no longer write a accurate script. So, maybe a good thing, going to find a new doc after all these years, because obviously Dr. Gatlin cares nothing about his patients even ones that have stuck with him for a long time.

A:
Gordon Cmon mate. You have a show to tell people how to run a restaurant and this place is a joke. While food was decent, service speed was horrible. You should be ashamed to have your name on this place. The place was 30% occupied at 830 on Monday night and it took 25 min to get our drinks. Took equally long to get second round which showed up when dinner was finished. Our bill could have been twice as large and we had a party of 8. Get off of your high horse and run your business!!
