The atmosphere inside taste of the Windy City is calm, peaceful, and it takes you to another place. The guy that was working the day I stopped by was super friendly, understanding, and invited me to share with him how my life, how my wife enjoyed her sandwich. She ordered a double bacon cheeseburger no bun. Add nacho cheese with no onions or pickles. This guy took the time to repeat the order back to me and made sure it was made just the way she wanted. He even put it in a special packaging. There was a short wait, but he was the only person there working and two other orders were policed right after mine. So, he had to do all three of our orders and he brought them all out at the same time serving not just the food, but also a smile in friendly gesture. I highly recommend going to Taste of the Windy City in Little chute Wisconsin.

I grew up in Chicago and this place has the feel and the food to compete with any GREAT Chicago hot dog restaurant. The hot dog was PERFECT. I met the owner who was busy making sure the place was a reflection of his attention to detail.

I order on doordash from this place their menu is listed incorrectly. The gyros that are made here always look like the gyro meat I get was cut by someone having a seizure. they more often than not will not listen to any requests for adjustments whenever I get hotdogs from this place its either majority of it is cold or the hotdog is burnt....pick one....don't do both. the few times I do get my food correctly for things other than hot dogs it usually tastes good. I just think the people that work there should not be working in the food industry.

Wow! My first visit impressed me. Food was so tasty and authentic Chicago style! Definitely will be back and look forward to trying additional menu items. It’s ironic because I ended up here by mistake - I was trying to find a different restaurant but inadvertently ended up in this parking lot and decided to try this place instead. Glad I did! I encourage everyone to give this place a try, especially if you enjoy traditional Chicago style foods.

Craving a traditional Chicago dog, I was excited to find this hole in the wall restaurant on my lunch. Unfortunately the food was mediocre at best. The onion rings were over cooked and not quality checked. An entire end of an onion was fried, not to mention unedible, and took up a bulk of the ring order. The bun on my Chicago dog was chewy, the dog itself was lukewarm like it sat on a roller grill, and the toppings were the cheapest version of every condiment you can buy. While the restaurant was cute and the staff very polite, I was really disappointed by the quality of the food.

First picture is an actual Chicago Italian Beef from Chicago!!!

Customer Service: 9/10
How Fast the food came: 9/10
Quality of the food: 6.4/10
Pricing: Above average

Ordered a Gyro combo and an Italian beef combo and it came to $28. I took a trip to Chicago last week and stopped by Johhnies Italian Beef. The difference is night and day between that and the Taste of the Windy City. I think what throws off the Italian beef for the Windy City is the bread. A different type of bread was used in the city. The Gyro was decent, above average. Fries and onion rings were fresh and hot. The portion on the onion rings were kind of sad so be aware when you order them. The service was top notch. 2 gentleman working who spoke with manners and served fast with a decent crowd plus Uber eats orders. I would maybe stop back because my go to spot is Chicago grill more towards downtown Appleton. Will do a review on them soon!

Solid food. The dipped/wet Italian beef is fantastic. The bread is perfect for it wet, which is smothered in the au jus 👌🏻. The bread does not disintegrate, on the other hand it does make the bread rather chewy if you do not eat it with the au jus.

Hubby and I stopped in day after Christmas for a quick bite to eat and we were very pleasantly surprised! The gentleman there was very friendly, gave us time to look, answered questions, & we were thrilled to find out that there's no pork on the premises! (Big bonus for us when we go out to eat). Husband ordered large Italian steak sandwich, I ordered a steak wrap. He had a large fry and I had an onion ring... Was a little more than we wanted to spend on an afternoon lunch but it was worth it! Hubby was completely stuffed after half of the fries and only half of the sandwich & I was very full after just half of the wrap. (He just ate his other half for breakfast, warmed in oven and he said it was just as delicious as it was yesterday). We took an order of deep fried pickles to go for daughter (chilling at home). She was appreciative 😁
Will DEFINITELY come back!!

I was in Appleton Wisconsin for business. I figured since I am in Wisconsin I really should get some cheese curds. I found this place and decided to order the cheese curds and a Philly cheesesteak with onion rings. I had it delivered to my hotel. I was not really hungry at the time, but I wanted to have the food there for when I did get hungry. So I am sitting on the bed doing some work on my computer and I could smell the food so I said why not just eat one cheese curd. So I open the bag and popped one in my mouth and let’s just say, it was such cheesy goodness that immediately I popped another in my mouth right after I swallowed the first one. And then it was like nonstop. I literally could not stop it was so good. The cheesesteak was also so good! It was even better when I heated it up the next day to finish it! Next time I am in the area I will order again.

I honestly wish there was a NO star rating as that is exactly what I would give. We ordered one combination with Italian sausage, sliced roast beef, provolone cheese and peppers. I had my dry with aujus on the side with fries and a drink. My Partner had the roast beef combo dipped with American cheese and fries.
Paid $28.00
My Italian sausage was so dried I took it out of my sandwich and banged it on the table.

The roast beef was HORRIBLE thin and tasted like it was frozen meat reheated from Gordons… disgusting.

I took my sandwich back to the counter and I stated to the young man that I didn’t like the taste of the roast beef and the Italian sausage is hard and dried out. I asked for a Chicago Dog instead and asked for the difference that I had paid, he said we don’t give money back.

Another man approached me and started yelling at me and refused to give my money back minus the $4.49 for one hotdog. He said it’s my problem that I don’t like their food and refused to give my money back.

We left all the food at the table and walked out!
The WORST FOOD & SERVICE EVER!!

I felt literally robbed. The manager said that I’m the “only”person that has ever complained. I find that to be bull$h!t…. To this day I would never go back.. plus they took my money and I had nothing to show for it.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY…🤮🤮🤢☠️

Alright, where to start? We walked in on a calm weekend afternoon with no expectations of what the food would be like but high hopes for finding a new spot that could satisfy our Chicago food itch. Being a Chicago native I’m always on the lookout for a good gyro and an amazing Italian beef.

I went with a gyro which was generously portioned with heaps of meat as a gyro should be the tzatziki sauce was perfectly made and tasty. The fries were a delicious and perfectly crispy they paired perfectly well with the gyro of which I unluded pictures. Pepsi product we’ll carbonated and we’ll mixed.

You might be wondering if all was well with the food why am I rating it 4 stars? Well… the small details of the restaurant can’t help but be noticed. While it’s an overall pleasant place to sit it seems like there’s been an overall neglect of cleaning the things that are frequently used. The pop machine had old old pop splash covering it I can’t imagine what the inside looked like. The napkin dispenser was also grimy. Vinyl on the seats was torn open in some booths. Additionally, and this is just a nitpick, the decor in the place doesn’t seem to follow a theme. It’s not Chicago themed, it’s not Chicago sports themed , it’s not sports themed, it’s somehow a hodgepodge of all of those things and it takes away from the restaurant.

I’ll be back for sure though. I still have to try the Italian beef.
