Yelp.com Review - by Michael S.

4.0 of 5 stars. If this place were in Chicago, it would be less impressive, I suppose, but it's not; it's in a suburb: Evanston. I wouldn't come to Evanston to come here, but if you are in Evanston and are the...

No creepy comic book dude here, folks!

I don't know about you, but there are a couple things that have caused me mild anxiety throughout my life. Maybe it's because of that creepy "Comic Book Guy" on The Simpsons, but I am always a little...
