We sat down, noticing that we were the only customers in the cafe (*awkward), but the awkwardness was quickly alleviated with our server (owner?) and cook -both guys were great! Food was very good! On the way out, I just noted to our server that my water cup had a crack in it -nbd though, it was plastic. Good experience overall.

I've only ordered to-go, but the staff is welcoming and communicative. My favorites are the Diavolo Italiano, Muffuletta, and Onion Rings which are probably one of the best I've ever had. I tried the Veggies & Such sandwich which was really good. It does come warmed, but I really enjoyed it cold which I ate the next day. The cabbage soup was disappointing, it tasted more like a minestrone soup, which was ok, but expected cabbage soup with a unique tastes. As for the few other things I've tried....they were very yummy. Can't wait to try another sandwich on their menu....if in the area give it try....it will be worth it.

The menu offers various espresso drinks, tea, sandwiches, and desserts; they also have various packaged snacks and such you could purchase around the counter. We ordered the Latte with almond milk and a Mocha - both were just not drinkable at all - it had an unpleasant bitter and grainy taste to it, and we just couldn't see the hype on this place. Service was friendly, and there were some seating inside as well as some tables in front of the cafe; unfortunately, we just couldn't dine in either option since it just reeked of cigarettes.

All of our good was delicious and so very homemade. What a great find. Our waitress was busy but very friendly. If you're in the area definitely check it out.

There's a two-sided counter in the middle with freezer and refrigerator cases full of deliciousness on one side and the sandwich and cold case items, like macaroni salad, eggplant rolls, marinated olives, etc. on the other. I had the Italian sub, and our group also ordered an Italian Beef and a Meatball sub, plus some macaroni salad to share. All were made to order and were delicious. We didn't have a cooler with us of we'd have picked up the lasagna as recommended by a man picking up dinner for guests and his wife, or some of the fresh sausages or meatballs. Highly recommend eating here in general and definitely before going to nearby Rolling Stones or HIP!

They have an array of variations and several different assortments of Italian seasonings, sides, desserts, sauces, frozen pizza, cans of goodies for all of your main dishes and not to mention fresh bread! Service was friendly and efficient! We got there right before noon on a weekday afternoon and it started getting packed quickly! Their 12 inch sandwiches are HUGE. We really enjoyed their arranchini ! It's the best one I've ever had and the second best one my husband has ever had next to the ones he tried in actual Italy! Loved their chewy texture and offering it warmed up with sauce. Delectable and simply devine! Would love to come back to try their breaded steak sandwich ! You can't go wrong with whatever you order. Their homemade spicy sausage is also amazing! Decently affordable for the quality that you're getting. They take both cash and card. Really enjoyed the old school Italian Chicago neighborhood vibes!

At first, I was a little unsure how it worked since there's a service counter, but staff quickly greeted us and showed us to a table. Table service was a pleasant surprise. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, walking us through an impressively extensive menu. I ordered the Double Medianoche--pulled pork, ham, mustard, Swiss cheese, and sweet pickles, all pressed panini‑style. My friend went with the Pan con Croqueta, a ham and cheese sandwich topped with a ham croquette. For anyone unfamiliar (myself included), croquetas are minced pork that's breaded and deep‑fried. Both sandwiches were solid, but the Medianoche was the clear winner for me--warm, flavorful, and perfectly pressed. With so many options on the menu, there's plenty more I want to try. Friendly staff, good food, and a comfortable dine‑in experience. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. There at least two signs advising they will charge 18% gratuity to tables of three or more and will not split checks for three or more.
