This is a promotional button used to advertise the restaurant Ed Debevic’s. Started in 1984, this retro-themed restaurant is located here in Chicago, IL. It was based on a pre-existing restaurant, Lill’s Homesick Diner in Tolooca, Illinois that existed during the 50s and 60s. Ed Debevic's is known for its servers, who, dress in flashy costumes and speak to the customers solely through snarky remarks. The servers are also known to drop their trays from time to time to preform a choreographed dance on their soda counters. The motto of Ed Debevic’s is “Eat and Get Out.”
