Chips
Gerry T.

It's an extensive menu and they offer catering too. We came here to specifically try their hot pastrami and corned beef sandwich. It's called the Chicago Pickle sandwich. I got the whole one, not half, and it was magnificent. The meats, Swiss cheese, coleslaw with thousand island dressing, on rye - was so filling, I saved half for later. We also tried the garlic aioli burger and it could have been more rare but what can you do with thinner patties. It was still very good though and it was topped with mushrooms. Looking back, my only tip is to not wrap the sandwich if you're dining in at the restaurant, this will keep everything crisper, it'll remain crunchy and easier to eat as opposed to having a soggy bun and bread. I'd like to come back for the Reuben sandwich and the steak and cheese sub. There's only street parking. I'd also like to try their Uptown location as it's equidistant from my home. By the way, this location was very clean and the service was friendly and overly kind.

Onion Rings
Jordan L.

I was really craving a chopped cheese for some reason and had seen some influencers hyping this place up so we decided to go check it out. You can tell they were going for the bodega/corner store vibe and it was for the most part they were spot on. They were just missing the random cat (might be a NY thing), everything was well organized and the place was really clean. They had plenty of drink options, chips, and other accoutrements that your local corner store may provide. We ended up ordering an Italian sub, a cheesesteak and a chopped cheese. We also ordered wings and onion rings. Nothing really stood out about the food. We couldn't really taste the difference between the cheesesteak and the chopped cheese. The onion rings were good. The wings were a miss. Overall the service was great and honestly that saved their rating. Everyone there was super friendly and accommodating.

Chicken Cordon Blue
Jim D.

The good is the price point & the portions. The bad is this isn't the best rendition of said dishes but they'll more than suffice. Delivery to my office was $7 & I had no idea of the portion size so we ordered extra. My coworker ordered a breakfast sandwich & steak fries which was overkill. I ended up with a cordon bleu & chopped cheese but I endedup giving the 2nd sandwich away. The sandwich was merely ok but what elevated it was the accompanying sauce which I assume was the sassy sauce.

Deli counter

As a family of sandwich lovers, this eatery checks all the boxes!! The service was amazing. We were greeted with smiles and very helpful and patient workers as we discussed the menu. For a family of 5, we got the full spicy Italian, half pastrami, half hummus and veggie, half ruben and a small French fry. The full is huge (we have leftovers to eat later today!). Our favorites were the toasted ruben and pastrami. Each sandwich was served with 2 crispy pickle spears. For everything we ordered, it came out to $50. The space is very clean and has plenty of seating. There is a large chip and drink selection, and of course pickle back brine! They also have a deli to order sliced boars head and cheese. Can't say anything better than to recommend this place! We surely will be back!

Veggie and Turkey Club sandwiches

My family and I love the assortment of sandwiches from Chicago Pickle. Our favs are the veggie and turkey club. Thank you for the outstanding service from Clemente and crew! They're very kind and attentive with our order every time.

Classic burger, whole pastrami sandwich, and half Chicago Pickle sandwich, plus fried pickle spears!!

Tony's Italian Beef

'Tony's Italian Beef' is spectacular. Located near in Chicago IL, getting there is a long drive…read morefor anyone who doesn't live in the area. But even 90 minutes in a car is worth it, especially if if you figure out a way to widen your journey, like combining Tony's with a trip to the Museum of Science and Industy: which is Fun & Food for the whole family. I admire 'Tony's Italian Beef' mostly because of how much I despise the many institutionalized versions of homegrown Chicago restaurants that are spreding everywhere like a virus as delicious as their food might be: - like 'Portillo's', with 112 locations and more than a dozen foid items on their menu, - or 'Buona Beef" with 36 locations and a menu of around 70 offerings, - or even 'AL's' (my favorite) owning a mere 5 stores and having just 10 or so menu listings. But 'Tony's Italian Beef' is not one of these. For them, here is here. That's it. If you aren't near Marquette Park on the South Side of Chicago, you're not anywhere near 'Tony's Italian Beef', because there is only one location. One of the best things about 'Tony's Italian Beef' is also one of the worst. The menu at 'Tony's...' is so big, and so many things look and smell so good, that once you arrive, and it's a long drive from everywhere, you start to wonder: "Maybe I should try one of these other delicious-looking items." I counted more than 120 menu choices when the listed variations are counted separately. 120! 'Tony's...' is way more than an Italian beef place. It offers chicken sandwiches, steak sandwiches, tamales, a full breakfast with pancakes, eggs, and Tony's McMuffins, fried fish, hot dogs, Polish sausages, salads, gyros, burgers, fries, shakes--the list goes on and on. Tony's owns the street it's on, with big signs offering big specials. It looks like its customer base consists of people who want a bucket of food for their family for cheap. I just don't understand why 'Tony's...' has so many options. I thought that it was due to insecurity. But after I watched customer after come in, saying "Hi" to everybody in the staff, and even giving one old guy behind the counter a hug, I realized that it was because everyone there knew everyone else, meaning that this was truly a neighborhood place. Both times that I was at 'Tony's...' everyone I saw had an Italian Beef Sandwich & Fries. There was one hot dog lover, but the tomatoes were huge and unripe, so they could hardly eat it without everything falling out. But nobody had a gyro, a burger, or a tamale. The first time at Tony's, I ordered the Italian beef, dipped heavy, with sweet peppers on top and giardiniera on the side. As a bonus, because the menu is so big, I got a tamale. I love traditional Chicago-style tamales, which are nothing like real Mexican tamales. I also got fries and a drink. My girlfriend got the chicken cutlet sandwich and a Greek salad, which made me want to throw her out the window. On my second visit, I ordered the same thing, except I got fries again. They were okay, but I've watched several videos in which people rave about Tony's hand-cut fries. They look delicious, and you can hear the crunch when people bite into them. Maybe I just caught them on an off day. The Italian beef sandwich with sweet peppers was excellent, especially with some yummy au jus on the side to make things extra wet. The giardiniera was tasty and hot, though it needed another month or so to marinate and soften. And they offered mayonnaise on their Italian beef, which is just wrong. And finally, the drive to get there was simply too long. Would I come to Tony's again? Yes, if it was closer. But there's a Portillo's five minutes from my house, so unless I'm on a job that brings me closer to Marquette Park, I probably won't return.

This little hole in the wall has about 10 seats. The place was packed on a Tuesday night at 9:30…read more We had the Corleone and the big beef and sausage. And I'll tell you something. They melt in your mouth. These guys are fast and they don't mess around. You want great sandwich. You come here. The slogan is "when's the last time you had a great sandwich?" Today!!!
