Service was pretty good and nothing wrong with the furnishings. Who cares about the place's history? You gotta do some kind of test about what it used to be? The food is kick ass, the prices are great and you should try the place instead of knocking it.J-Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671801062531432898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-86869167532545506082010-02-23T10:33:17.301-06:002010-02-23T10:33:17.301-06:00If you know Shopiro you know this is no surpriseIf you know Shopiro you know this is no surpriseChristoph Klasenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08214156818650597494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-46280377350473815622010-02-15T16:06:52.854-06:002010-02-15T16:06:52.854-06:00A "little weird" does sum up the whole O...A "little weird" does sum up the whole Orly's thing, so probably no need to say more. But I'm delighted someone mentioned Amelia's. It is outstanding! If you have a car, it's worth the quick drive.rdbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103840395230003048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-68648583584122732162010-02-11T19:26:51.973-06:002010-02-11T19:26:51.973-06:00freeweezy: He makes his money on the catering port...freeweezy: He makes his money on the catering portion of his business, apparently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-53348885125831639132010-02-11T17:37:52.288-06:002010-02-11T17:37:52.288-06:00Does anyone know who finances this Shopiro, or how...Does anyone know who finances this Shopiro, or how an individual can afford to keep this kind of operation going?MC Easy Penishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14615197073283779652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-75878484212124754282010-02-11T10:35:35.665-06:002010-02-11T10:35:35.665-06:00Orly's should be subject to a government takin...Orly's should be subject to a government taking so Chicagoans can get a real restaurant at that location.<br /><br />My wife and I went to Amelias Bar and Grill at 45th and Halsted (that's not a mis-type) in Back of the Yards and found it to be incredibly good (really incredible) and at the most unusual location imaginable. I just shutter to think what that group could have done with Orly's. At any rate, go to Amelias and wonder - "why not in Hyde Park"?kbsbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693459295135980669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-61911160196366293712010-02-11T09:17:56.886-06:002010-02-11T09:17:56.886-06:00Lithuanian BBQ, undoubtedly.Lithuanian BBQ, undoubtedly.TurtleButterSnughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03662576743184632756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-61743206713543986122010-02-10T22:44:35.976-06:002010-02-10T22:44:35.976-06:00And much hilarity ensued.
