    I've only been there a couple times, and yeah, it's not going to compare to any type of higher end burger, but man if you want a double or triple patty w steak fries, for a good price, look no further.

    Rich G is totally on w the Mpls/Chicago Jucy comparison. I will say though, the real Jucy Lucy is something I a LOT about my home, and Anthem does a better rendition than anywhere else I've been to in Chicago (Small Bar, blech).

  • "Burgers are great, but not worth the wait." AMEN!

Has anyone used Everywhere Wireless, for Internet Service?

A friend of mine referred me to this company, who apparently installs wireless internet in condo and apartment buildings, on a bulk basis, at discounted rates - i.e. less than $15/unit/month - Can anyone provide any feedback about this company? Here's their website: www.everywherewireless.com. We're considering it for our condo building, but I'd like to hear more thoughts about the company.

    This company's service is really below par. Takes days for support to get back to you. Then when they do same guy always calls back days later offers no refunds and treats you like you are an idiot. Told girlfriend better off bundle pkg with cable att. Then their website what a joke they are so not customer service. Don't use it bro your better off paying 15 more and knowing you have access 99.9 percent of the time. And remember the 15 is per IP so if you have 4 machines at home and a printer ~ forget about it.

  • FYI - Apparently, this is all based on the agreement that your building manager or condo association structures with the company. We just had them install service in our building for only $7/unit (not per IP/person) and so far, we've been very pleased.

  • MTB MTB

    This is a sub-par company at best. I did some exploring after a poor experience and found out that the company is literally like 3 guys that are trying to make quick money by doing the legwork that anyone can do. Their customer service is horrible and they dont know what they are doing. You are better off trying to contact the provider and putting in a little extra work to actually work through a real provider. I wouldnt use them again...brutal.

Citywide staff pick

From Is it only me? Confusion on NATO and staying home in the Loop during the Summit:

"We would appreciate anyone with some sound advice to please share what they might know as far as safely staying in condo at Madison & State. We were planning to stock up on food and stay in. Does this sound okay to do? Sarcasm & judgement not welcome please."
