Outstanding prices and services, fastest pick up for chicago classic lunch. Dogs, gyros, subs and burgers. Impeccably friendly and helpful, small spot so get catering or carry out. make sure you tip these guys some of the money you'd save from the chains. Just made me gryo fries for , they're not even on the menu, and they're incredible...these guys know what they're doing 10/10

Just moved to the area recently and so glad to find a place like this nearby! Don't listen to people complaining about the "atmosphere" or whatever. This is a legit Chicago-style fast food joint, with burgers, Italian beef, hot dogs, gyros, etc. I grew up going to places like this in Cook county and atmosphere doesn't figure into it. It's unpretentious, not fussy. They serve tasty, reasonably priced food. Got the gyros here for my first visit. Last time I had gyros, I got them at Scooby's in Westmont and paid WAY too much money for the meal. They were MUCH cheaper at Poor Boy 2. The ones at Scooby's were slightly better for a couple reasons, but not enough to justify the ridiculous price. Here I got a yummy gyro with all the fixins and didn't feel like I got robbed doing so. Also the service is incredibly friendly and courteous without feeling fake or obnoxious. They have a bunch of other stuff on the menu and I'm looking forward to trying more of it, like the Italian beef and the subs. Will definitely become a regular customer here!

Great little hole in the wall place. Can't beat the prices especially considering inflation. The food quality was excellent. Hope this place never changes. It's so hard to find good little places like this that give you a real bang for your buck

This place made my week. I had just told my coworkers I wanted horchata and didn't know of anywhere close that sells it. I wandered in and discovered they had all my favorites including horchata in the same place. This is my new favorite restaurant in the area for lunch. I can't wait to come back.

This a wonderful gem of a spot! It's not fancy food, but most of it is above average, and the prices/portion sizes are incredible, especially on their specials, and the service is amazing. Their burgers are so-so, and I am not a fan of their subs, but the gyros, chicken sandwiches (which are huge), and Polishes are all great. If you need a quick bite, go support this local business.

Sometimes, a really good sandwich can help get you through a really bad day. I'm not here to talk about the bad day; but I would like mention the sandwich that helped get me through it. Poor Boy 2 makes the best Italian beef in the area, period--better than Flips; better that Buona; and (yes) better than Portillo's. Hands down THE BEST. Do yourself a favor and look forward to one the next time something tasty would improve your day. Super friendly staff, at-home vibe, fast and reliable service, and a great subs, too.

This place was tiny and I just went once while far from home. Staff was really friendly. I was rushed and somehow missed the entire Po Boy menu and got a gyro, which was fine but not my favorite. I kinda kicked myself as i went FOR a Po Boy. Seems to have a pretty strong following. If you're a Mountain Dew fan, this place is on point. The couple open tables were filthy, unfortunately.
