Polk-a-dot

Chicago, IL

Judged:

What doesn't polk-a-dot have any polk-a-dots? With a name like that you would think it would! It would be cute. The original Polk-a-dot bus was painted white with a rainbow of different polk-a-dots. Anyone agree???

I agree

I think Judy is doing a great job at the Polka Dot. It always looks good,and she gives a lot of kids jobs for extra money. Keep up the good work Judy.

meanwhile the food coolers and freezers break down every other week, but they wont get new ones to prevent this from happening, they wont pay someone to come in and clean when they are closed, and trust me, it needs it. When she hired girls to work she's not thinking about the girls shes thinking about the mountain of cash she's going to make on their hard work.

hah, you are soooooooo right, I use to work there and Judy is a typical Dixon. I`ts all about the MONEY. She`ll spend as little as possible on repairs to have that money, just like her brother and the trailers. I went too school with them and they are not what alot of people think they are.

HOTSICLES IS GREAT. THERE BURGERS ARE AWSOME, SOUPS ARE VERY VERY GOOD.. HOTDOGS AS YOU SAID ARE JUST LIKE CHICAGO HOT DOGS AND I BET IF YOU ASK THEY WOULD PUT CELERY SALT ON IT FOR YA TO. HAVE NOT HAD A THING BAD THERE TRULY.
AS FAR AS POLKA DOT GOES, THEY ARE NOT TO BAD EITHER AND I HAVE NEVER NOTICES THAT PLACE DIRTY AT ALL TRULY. SOME OF THE ITEMS ON THE MENU ARE NOT THAT GREAT, BUT IT'S A DRIVE IN NOT A 4 STAR RESTAURANT. IT'S CONVENIENT, THEY DELIVERY AND THE FOOD IS MOSTLY GOOD.. NOT MUCH MORE YOU CAN ASK FOR IN A SMALL TOWN.
AND I NOW SEE WHY THIS TOWN DOESN'T RETAIN BUSINESS'S .. THE FIRST CHANCE YA GET YA JUMP ON EM FOR WHATEVER REASON. KINDA SAD IF YA ASK ME

I'd go to AJs any day over polk-a-dot, but you'd never catch me in the Wilmington House or the launching pad

Boz Hot Dogs in Morris have them all beat. Their dogs and polish sausage can't be beat.

Morris, IL

Judged:

I use to work there a couple years ago. Judy is NOT the monster you portray her to be. Yea, she's tough on her employees but in this day and age you have to be. Everyone's bitching about Berkots because the managers are not on the kids butts that work there, and then you bitch because Judy is the way she is. She'd give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. No, I'm not her friend, just a former employee.

I heard today Berkot's was buying Polk-a-dot to expand their store.

That's good. I love Polka Dot. It's so nice that they deliver. We like to take the softball team at the end of the season to celebrate- it's a tradition!

1) berkots could not afford to pay what the Owners of polk-a-dot would be asking.
2) Berkots will be moving to the big lot behind Caseys when the main st rehab project happens.
