Smack Dab, Rogers Park
22 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia r/chicagofood, r/AskChicago26 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Smack Dab's biscuit sandwiches are the recurring draw, with breakfast burritos also earning praise. One diner singles out the Smokey Burrito and its unusual potato-chip filling. Dissent is specific: one finds the biscuit cold and store-bought in texture, while another believes quality has declined. Those two reservations remain alongside the enthusiastic food recommendations.
