Poor Boy

I've been going to this restaurant for many many years. This is an always will be one of my favorite go to fast food restaurants. Always have great service,. I've only had their chicken and fish products,never disappointed. The ambience is your standard fast food restaurant. keep up the good work Poor Boy.

Poor Boy is a nice place to get lunch in Maywood, and definitely a great place for lunch if you're on your way to Brookfield Zoo down the street.The Italian beef sandwiches are great, and the gyro platter is massive and delicious as well. They give you a ton of food, and the service is friendly. There isn't a bad thing on the menu, it's all great and much cheaper than eating at the zoo. It's very small inside for dine in but definitely a nice quick, fresh fast food place to check out. Highly recommended.

Needed lunch, saw this and checked the Yelp reviews. Nice to get something local. I had an Italian beef with sausage. Small place, small lot, be careful going in and out. Nothing fancy, but clean and comfy seating. Great service. And the food? Excellent. Big bun, overflowing with beef, and somewhere underneath a big, good sausage. Be prepared to answer "wet or dry?" (Dipped in jus or not.) I went wet, which is a little messier but also tastier. Sandwich held together well, in the wrapper. And OMG. So good. I also asked for spicy, so there was giardinera on top. Not super hot, but added some zip.Prices were reasonable. Food was up quick. Left more than just full, left satisfied and with great tastes still in my mouth.

i visited this location on a whim because I wanted something a little different around the holidays.The service here is fast, and the staff very professional, although the location may not look like much.The bathrooms are for customers only, and are nice and clean.The food was excellent, and served quickly! Looking forward to visit this location again when I'm in Chicago

I wish I had a photo of that hot beef sandwich. Better than any "Po'Boy" I ever had in New Orleans. Perfect combination of sliced beef, peppers, onions, and some sausage. Getting dipped in au jus, I thought it might be a mess to eat after it was wrapped up for take out, but it soaked perfectly into the bread and meat and was the perfect texture without falling apart on the ride home. Shoestring fries are fried to a soft and mushy texture (which I personally like- but you may not if you want crunchy.)

Smelled so goo d while sitting at the stop light, I decided to stop in. Had the gyro. Probably the worst gyro I've had in a long time. The meat was hard and crusty. The pita bread was good. The sauce was flavorless, but at least they gave me extra for free. The soda was watery and flat. Very disappointed

Food was prompt and fresh. Reasonably priced, and friendly service. I have always thought this was better than Portillos and try to support the Capitalist local owner, however this place needs repairs and the food is not as good as it was a couple years ago. Focus!

This place is always on point. My go to is the gymshoe sandwich and some fries. The subs here always hit but don't sleep on their grill Game. Grilled chicken sandwich is great and the fries (similar to McDonald's in style) are usually good.

Great grilled chicken sandwich. Great flavor, not overpowering like some places have. Fresh toppings and possibly the largest grilled chicken sandwich I've had!

Food pretty Ok. Greasy spoon. Not friendly staff, at all. Hot dogs are decent. Beefs ok.
