I really love Algonquin Mexican Restaurant. It's not much to look at, but you really can't go wrong with a giant burrito for $5. Try their red & green sauces too (they come with the burrito). There's a ton of flavor packed into the little cup. If you haven't tried them out, I suggest either a burrito or their tacos...delicious!!!

Where's CREATIVE OCCASIONS??? That's an awesome downtown Algonquin shop offering wonderful, handcrafted, all natural soaps and body products. In addition to soap, customers can find unique, handcrafted items from around the world, purchased from the artisans through fair trade. It's located just a few doors north of Martinis On Main. Shame on Patch for leaving Creative Occasions off the list! C.O. Gets my vote!

I have picked up orders, had them delivered, and even had an order catered to my house for a party. The food is excellent and the people are very friendly on the phone and even the delivery people are nice to deal with. A class act and enjoy ordering from EastSide Joey's. Keep up the good work Mark and co!!
