1. The drink was not secured by Smileys. It needs tamper-resistant tape. The benefits are twofold.
1a. No accidental tampering
1b. No accidental spills
2. There was no option to get salsa for 5 tacos ($25w/o tax & tip). Therefore, by default, they should send 1 of each or at minimum only 1 mild, but NEVER send tacos without salsa. So disappointing.
Drink easily spilled when lifted & no restitution.
In person, the staff is incredibly warm and attentive, offering genuine, friendly service. & that’s why they deserve 5 stars. I forgive them for todays delivery. I highly recommend you stop by & try!
Conveniently situated right on Route 59, Smiley’s definitely boasts accessibility. Walking in, you’re immediately struck by the sheer variety on offer. Their namesake gyros and Italian beef are clearly a focus, with options ranging from the classic sandwich to fiesta and chicken versions, plus gyro plates for those wanting the components laid out.
Moving into the beef territory, they’ve got a solid lineup. The Italian beef sandwich is a must-try for any Chicago area spot, and they also offer Italian sausage, a combo, and a beef and sausage mix. For those craving steak, the ribeye is an interesting addition to a fast-food style menu. Burger lovers have plenty to choose from too, with everything from a classic hamburger to a patty melt, quarter pounder, double, junior, a “Gyros Burger” (intriguing!), and even a Black Angus option.
But wait, there’s more! Smiley’s ventures beyond the typical beef and gyro fare with tacos, tostadas, burritos, and quesadillas. Chicken and fish sandwiches broaden the appeal, and their sub selection, from BLTs to Reubens and pulled pork, is substantial. Vienna Beef hot dogs and their variations (chili, corn, Polish with fries) cater to the hot dog aficionados.
Even the salad options are more diverse than you might expect, with Julia, toss, and Greek salads available. And for a sweet finish, you can indulge in Greek baklava or Eli’s cheesecake.
Now, let’s talk about the food itself. I can attest that the quality is indeed very good. The portions are genuinely enormous – you definitely get your money’s worth in terms of quantity. However, this does contribute to the fact that it’s a little on the pricier side for what’s essentially a fast-food establishment.
Here’s my breakdown:
Pros:
* Massive Menu: Seriously, there’s something for everyone here. You could eat here multiple times and still find something new to try.
* Very Good Food: Quality ingredients and well-prepared dishes.
* Enormous Portions: Come hungry, because they don’t skimp!
* Convenient Location: Right on IL 59, easy to access.
Cons:
* A Little Expensive: The generous portions come with a slightly higher price tag than typical fast food.
Overall:
Smiley’s Gyros and Beef is a solid choice when you’re looking for a satisfying and substantial meal with a huge variety of options. While it might be a tad pricier than your average fast-food joint, the quality and quantity of the food definitely make it worth considering, especially if you’re really hungry. If you’re in Plainfield and craving just about anything, Smiley’s is likely to have it!
