Business Summary what's this?
Michael's Chicago Style Red Hots is a one star restaurant in Highland Park. Reviewers didn't rate this place very highly. It's known for its hot dogs. When you step inside the restaurant, you'll notice a family atmosphere. This restaurant is very affordable.
1.0 of 5 stars.
Here's what bothers me about his place. The guy that takes your order and prepares your food....takes the money too. No gloves in sight. I was very surprised by that. Germs! I could not focus on...

So the dining room resembles a high school cafeteria, or maybe a Saved By the Bell set, but the food makes up for it! I come here for the salads, but have also tried the burgers, hot dogs and...

While most go with a burger or dog, I always enjoy an order of chicken fingers. Something about how they come out makes them taste better than at other places. Try em the next time you visit...

This is where we stopped for lunch. Needless to say my crew couldnt wait to get away from this place, out of this god-awful town, and eat some real food. Ugh, I hate the burbs.

Food is really good, but I have to only give this place one star because it not only is over-priced. It is an absolute RIP-OFF. I ordered a hot dog, fries and a drink and my bill was $11-...

I know for many reviewers Michael's evokes fond childhood memories, so my apologies in advance. The First Amendment is, after all, about the free marketplace of ideas. For me, Michael's evokes awful...

Really, really good hot dogs and excellent fries. For what it is, this place is excellent. Would have given five stars but definitely overpriced.

Yeah, Michaels is a little overpriced, but it's in Highland Park, and the hot dogs are still really good. It's well-organized and the service is fast (which is great because this place is usually mobbed,...

Best place to get a good dog in Highland Park. That said, the atmosphere doesn't even come close to a downtown dog place. So, a halfhearted three from me. Tasty food, but the ambience... Eh. Too...
