Most of us have spent more than enough after-bar time at George Webb or Pizza Shuttle. Here are some alternatives for your next late night out.

Jalisco’s

2207 E. North Ave.

Hours:
Sunday – Thursday: 7 a.m.-3 a.m.
Friday – Saturday: 24 hours

A decent break from the usual late night hangouts, Jalisco’s is an authentic Mexican restaurant ready for your midnight (or after-midnight) hunger.

Covered in gaudy decorations, including a statue of the Virgin Mary, this restaurant feels like you just crossed the border and decided to enjoy some guacamole. You are served free chips still warm out of the oven and salsa with a little bite to it when you take your seat.

The menu includes staples of Mexican cuisine like tacos and burritos, as well as unique items such as a “Mexican Burger.” The chicken burritos are large enough for a second meal sometime later.

The food is pretty fantastic overall, and you really can’t go wrong when it’s pretty much open all the time. I would recommend this restaurant for anyone, especially if you know Spanish so you can understand what the employees are saying to each other.

Chopstix

1820 N. Farwell Ave.
390-0570

Hours:
Sunday: noon-midnight
Monday – Tuesday: 11 a.m.-midnight
Wednesday – Friday: 11 a.m.-3 a.m.
Saturday: noon-3 a.m.

Delivery Information
$1 delivery charge under $15; free delivery over $15
Last delivery: 11:30 p.m. Sunday – Tuesday; 2:30 a.m. Wednesday – Saturday

Chopstix is a bit classier than most other late night hot spots and delivers its Chinese cuisine until 2:30 in the morning on the weekends.

With a large menu, you can pretty much pick out any variety of Chinese food that you like. Chopstix is also more inexpensive than other Chinese restaurants, which is always quite the perk.

Lunch and dinner combos like General Tso’s chicken come with regular rice or egg fried rice and an egg roll or crab rangoon. The crab rangoon is the best I’ve ever had.

All the entrees are under $7 — a great thing for any college student, but sometimes it also proves that you get what you pay for.

Although the meals aren’t the most satisfying I’ve ever had, the price of everything is more than appealing, and I would not hesitate to go back.

Dogg Haus

1433 E. Brady St.

Hours:
Sunday – Thursday: 11 a.m.-11 p.m.
Friday – Saturday: 11 a.m.-3 a.m.

A little hot dog shop on Brady Street, this is quite the interesting joint. The small restaurant is filled with an overwhelming amount of yellow and red, as well as newspaper articles on top of all of the yellow.

With about five counter seats against the window facing Brady, I wouldn’t recommend hanging out and eating there, but the fake flowers in ketchup container vases made me regret not wearing a tie.

Although the menu is mostly hot dogs and sausage, there is a great amount of styles you can pick from for your hot dog. You can also choose from the many condiments and create your own hot dog. I had the overpowering Chicago Style and I left quite full.

If you’re a hot dog fan, this is more than the perfect place. It is also a great place to go in the middle of the night to mix with all the Milwaukee’s Best that fills your evening.
