My husband almost always orders the Challah French Toast. He says, "It's the best he's ever had ". I love the flavors of the roasted vegetable panini. When our adult children are in town we lunch at George's. He stops to chat, especially with the young adults. He is engaged and sincere. On our most recent visit our waitress, Beth (I believe that was her name, but in actuality I can hardly remember yesterday!) was very accommodating. We love George's. Great for all ages. BUT, I'm not too sure about the paintings, of course art is in the eye of the beholder. Peg D. read more

I went here with my grandma when I came to visit her. Corky and Lenny's along with jacks was closed due to Passover, so we went here. My grandma got the matzah ball soup while I had a corned beef sandwich. The atmosphere was nice and you can tell there were a lot of regulars, my grandma included. The owner came to our table and said hi to us and talked to my grandma for a while, which was very nice. The place was packed! I had a taste of her soup and it was really good. My sandwich was tasty, but a bit dry. I put quite a bit of mustard on it which I normally don't do. Other than that the place was great! read more

Looking for a new place to grab some take out so we gave the deli a try. Food was good and portions were large enough for a second meal. It's obviously a popular spot since every table was full and there was a line out the door waiting for pick up. Staff were scrambling all over the place. This is kind of an issue for me given the current state of things- just too many people jammed into a small space for my comfort. I'm sure that we'll be back to try more of the menu items in the future but not until I have a chance to get a COVID vaccination. read more

Just okay. My family brought me here for Sunday brunch and although the servers and owner were friendly, the service itself was painfully slow. We ended up sitting and talking for at least 45 minutes before our food arrived. When it did, it was just average. My egg, bacon and cheese breakfast sandwich was essentially an omelet on top of a bagel which is not what I was expecting. Again, it was okay but I have had better elsewhere. Usually when I order a breakfast sandwich the components are layered separately and this was just not that. I guess I would come back if I was in the area and there were no other options but I wouldn't make a special trip. The fresh bagels and homemade cream cheeses advertised on the menu intrigued me and that would be my choice on a future visit. The welcoming nature of the owner and servers are what bumped this review to a 3. read more

Chicago Deli - Breakfast sandwich on a bagel - Delis Near Me - Solon, Ohio

Only fair. Not like an authentic Jewish deli because it is not Jewish. The food was so so. Not good enough for me to return

We have ordered from here several times in the past few months and never had an issue. We Love the chicken shawarma, turkey sandwich, matzo ball soup, stuffed cabbage, salads and more. Even the breakfast is phenomenal! We love all their food and support them whenever we can. read more

I hadn't been here in awhile. Excellent corned been sandwich, gluten free. Delivered by uber, expeditiously.

Great hot pastrami and corned beef sandwich. Side pickles were garlic and wonderful. Service was good but to go order took almost 30 minutes. Restaurant was clean and organized. Will go back again for sure. read more

Food was delicious. I love the beef stroganoff and there corned beef sandwiches. I will pop in while working in the area.

This used to be one of my favorite places in Solon. Since the owner, George, sold the restaurant, it has gone downhill fast. My husband and I went for breakfast. At least 1/3 of the tables had not been cleaned, it took 15 minutes to ask if we wanted coffee. A waitress passed us three times in 20 minutes and said she'd be right there. We got up and left! We gave it a second try because when we went there right after ownership changed, I ordered a patty melt and sweet potato fries. The patty melt was just "ok" - very little onions and the fries were cold. Too bad -- this used to be a great diner. read more

Took the family to visit relatives in a C-Town suburb. We got off the plane, got our rental and started to ride eastward. When we got to Solon, we decided that we wanted to grab a bite to eat prior to our family visit. We used to live in this area but a lot of our old standby places were gone. So off to Yelp for recommendations - that brought us here. Overall, good quality, nice menu and good portions. I'd probably consider this place more of a diner than a deli as their menu is pretty diverse. My corned beef sandwich was pretty good. The rest of the family enjoyed their meal as well. Not a bad place if you are hungry and looking to fill up. read more

Everything was great, except the hash browns. I had to send them back 2x to get them beyond mushy. They apologized. Just so you know, pre-made, hang around potatoes...just do not work. read more

Have eaten here several times. Lunch or dinner. I have enjoyed the turkey bacon club or the oven roasted turkey of two slices of bread with mash and gravy. The food for the most part is good to great. Issues. Food sometimes is Luke warm and the fries I got one time with club were overcooked or cooked in grease that needed clean Service is hit or miss depending on who u get. But overall worth a try and the menu selection. Is huge to choose from. read more

Great Chicken Parmesan and Giant Corned Beef sandwiches. The potato pancakes are the best I ever had and the sweet potato fries are amazing. I actually had them cater my wedding in 2005 . Totally amazing place with very friendly staff. read more

I was thinking about a corned beef Sammie all day... and found myself near Chicago deli in Solon. The corned beef was so dry it was hard to swallow. Great service, but if I'm blowing calories I'll take my corned beef a little fatty and greasy.‍ read more

The staff is friendly, and very professional. Masks are worn and cleanliness is excellent. The food is tasty, and in the rare event it comes out wrong, they make it right. And let's face it they simply make the best chicken soup! read more

Nice little deli with incredible food I recommend the shrimp and crab cakes or the big George burger with extra big George sauce.

The food and service is AMAZING! I have used them to cater multiple events as well as enjoying a meal in the restaurant. They have always provided great customer service and the food is delicious! Love this restaurant and will highly recommend it! read more

The truest sign a deli knows what it's doing: the owner personally goes table to table to ask how the service was. George knows everyone who passes through his restaurant! Here is a totally random (but tasty) list of the best comfort food lunch and brunch options at Chicago Deli: - Omelets galore! - French toast. - Milkshakes. Just trust me on this. - Matzoh ball soup. - Fish fry (for the good Catholics out there!) - Corned beef. Rich and juicy! As I read the comments about the corned beef, I have to mention... if you want your corned beef lean, ask! They will automatically leave a little fat on for flavor unless you specify. Most impressively, this can be one of the busiest delis on the east side (particularly on Fridays), but the staff handles it like total pros. I've seen lines out the door, and the service never lacked for a minute. I've been served faster here during slammed times, than I have in empty restaurants in slow times. Other restaurants could learn from their service. It's down to a science! read more

We've been coming here for a few years as an alternative to Bob Evans. The potato latkas are great. Do is the challa French toast. Fast and friendly service. And they won't let your coffee get too low without a refill. Sometimes they get swamped and you can wait a bit but it's a great alternative to the regular breakfast spots. Chris read more

This is an awesome local sandwich shop. The service sizes are amazing and the fries are really good. The sandwich was good enough - didn't blow my mind away - but definitely worth getting again. It's nice to support local restaurants during this time, especially one so good. read more

The service at Deli is abysmal! Everytime I go there to place a carry out order there's usually something wrong. If I ask for my eggs to be over medium they're always over easy, if I ask for a meal on the menu when I get it home there's a hair in it! Today when I attempted to place a carry out order after not going there for 2 months the manager refused to honor the price that was online, even though he stated that the prices online were accurate. Therefore I will never, ever go to Chicago deli again. *Tried to order a Good Morning America and the person said it was $4.99 when online it clearly states for $4.59. She stated the online price was accurate but they wouldn't honor it read more

If you don't go in with a plan, you're in trouble. This place has so many options that it was really hard to narrow down what to eat because everything sounds so good. The portions are pretty large and prices very reasonable. The desserts are the size of a newborn, so just keep walking past the display or you will be tempted to grab a tasty treat which no one will blame you for going for it. The service was good and fast. The restaurant has a family or local diner appeal. My food was just okay. I had a gyro and fries and it wasn't anything to write home about. However my partner enjoyed their sandwich and huge onion rings that are the size of fists (great thing). I would definitely return to try something else. read more

Love this place for lunch and breakfast. Breakfast feels like you're eating At home except you don't have to cook it yourself! Lunch: sweet potato fries are the way to go as your side. Feels like they just cut and cooked them! I love the tuna melt, Fresh with light mayo which I love. Gyro & chicken Schwarma were authentic and generous amount of meat! Salads are a good size, but wish they had more greens than iceberg. Definitely feels like a family run restaurant, so friendly and everyone checks in on you to make sure you're enjoying yourself and the food. read more

What does this place have to do with Chicago!? They use Boar's Head meats, which is originally from NY now HQ'd in Florida. You can buy Boars Head in a grocery store. Wife and I went in to try, saw the Boars Head sign and left. I was told they have good sandwiches, but we'll never know. The place is misnamed. read more

This is a pretty good deli, but I would consider it a no frills deli, like there weren't any fancy garnishes and the food was alright. The matzah ball soup gets 5 stars, my pastrami and corned beef sandwich would be a 3.5 star. Also I would have given this place 4 stars since the owner walks around and asks if everything is ok which shows that this place cares, but it wasn't enough for the 20 minutes we waited as we were seated and for them to decide which waitress was going to serve us. read more

Love Chicago deli the food is always good the service is perfect the owner George always stops by and ask saw your meal is and if there's anything else he can get for you he makes you feel like your family. my favorite is the potato pancakes they're fresh and excellent and crispy it's our go to restaurant during the week. If you want a good fish fry go there on a Friday the fishes beer battered cod very good if you'd rather have a grilled or broil they'll do that for you too read more

I went there on a Saturday morning around 8:15 am. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food and great service. The name of my waitress was Sam and she was super nice! I ordered the corned beef hash and it was so much better than a very famous deli in New York and Connecticut. The waffle was good also but I didn't taste it until I was done with my corned beef hash so I wasn't able to taste it when it was fresh off the griddle. Still, the whipped butter and cream were fresh. The strawberries were fresh and plain with no sauce which I liked. I am usually a very hard person to please. But I will definitely go back for breakfast. read more

The food is absolutely spot on! The service is fast and A+! Great family feel to it! Friendly service.

I have become a regular here. Very consistent. You will see the owner walking from table to table checking with everyone and if you have a concern he will take care of it. He is very sincere and proud of his quality and service. All the servers are friendly. Many times I have brought friends there for their first time, everyone has been looking forward to returning. If you're near Solon, stop in. read more

So we've been here a few times now but I wanted to wait and see if the issue was just a one off. But here's the thing, everyone is nice and no issues with the service... but it seems like the food is just ok and never comes to the table HOT. Just always somewhat warm. Last time we went for breakfast and my potatoes were literally cold. Granted the owner, or manager I'm not sure which, was very nice and brought my potatoes that were steaming. The steak I got really didn't have much flavor and was really thin... made it difficult to get it medium rare, was closer to medium well. So basically food is hit and miss but service is never an issue. read more

We were in town one night to visit family and walked over here to get breakfast before we called an Uber to head to the airport....and wowza, it was a great breakfast. The service was good, the food was delish and they made us feel like regulars there. The owner stopped at our table to ask us how everything was and then chit-chatted with us about our visit. read more

Very accommodating owner. Great, hot, fresh food. Good price! No complaints. I order from here often!

I have lived in Aurora for over 20 years and for whatever reason have never eaten at Chicago Deli until now. I was extremely pleasantly surprised by my experience here. Our waiter was super attentive and very knowledgeable of their extensive menu and gave great recommendations when we asked. There is definitely something for everyone on this large menu, they have everything from deli foods, to Mediterranean foods, to good old fashioned comfort food. The owner also stopped by our table multiple times to make sure that we were happy with our experience. I ordered the New Yorker corned beef sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. I will say my corned beef was a little dry but I asked for a side of horseradish which was just what my sandwich needed. My parents were happy with their meals as well and the prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back now that we have finally tried the Chicago Deli. read more

Food is good here. The night we were there last our service could have been better. In most cases the service was better. Maybe we had a new waitress. But all in all I like it there and will continue to patronize. read more
