redbanditZ28 07-29-2008 06:06 PM

I swear I'll pistolwhip the next person who says Shenanigans. lol.

redbanditZ28 07-29-2008 06:08 PM

I can't believe Chicago Uno still stays afloat. I like the place but it always looks like Bennigans has more people in their parking lots than Chicago Unos.

Frosty 07-29-2008 06:09 PM

Steak & Ale too, that's ok because their food sucked.

I've only been to Bennigan's a few times, but always had good food & beer when I was there.

Our local Uno's is pretty busy most of the time, but it shares a parking lot with the AMC 24.

It is probably location of the Unos. I go to the one in So. Plainfield off Stelton rd. and it is right next door to a Bennigans and the Bennigans always has more people than the uno. Not to say that the uno doesn't get business, but it is never booming with business per se. Plus I don't see too many Chicago unos around in general. Does anyone else?

That sucks about Bennigans though. My Irish friend is going to be pissed. lol.

Mike 07-29-2008 09:48 PM

so your basing your opinion of a giant chain like uno staying in business off of one location?
