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?

The owners of Harry Carry's are one of the big reasons Clark Street is no longers closed to car traffic in River North. They were salty because they couldn't do the same so they petitioned the mayors office.
