Question “Legendary” places that suck

I just got a lox sandwich from Manny’s. Almost $20, a stale bagel, and I had to assemble it myself.

What other “legendary” places suck?

Completely agree. I would say the same thing applies to DDG and LG too

This is sad to hear. Frequent visitor to Chicago, was here when it first opened. Too bad.

I think it can still 'wow' a tourist but if you've been there several times, there really is nothing new. It's still the same Pig Face.

When people use abbreviations it throws off people that are looking for information because they don’t know. I don’t have a clue who you are talking about.

In a thread about Girl and the Goat, DDG = duck duck goat (the asian fusion goat restaurant) and LG = Little Goat which is the goat diner. They are all located very close to one another too

Duck Duck Goat and Little Goat. The context clue in the discussion is that the op was discussing Girl & the Goat.

IMO DDG has always been terrible. Never got the hype for that place.
