I've spent years searching for the perfect deli sandwich. Every time I'd find a place I liked,…read moresomething would eventually disappoint me. Maybe the bread wasn't fresh, the lunch meat tasted processed, or the quality just wasn't consistent. Tony & Tina's Deli is the first place that has truly become my go-to. I absolutely love their subs, especially the Brayden. I always order the large, and it's packed with so much fresh meat that I can give a generous portion of the turkey to my toddler as a snack and still have a full sandwich left for myself. That's saying something! Their potato salad is also outstanding. It tastes homemade, not like something scooped out of a mass-produced container. It's exactly the kind of potato salad you picture enjoying on a hot summer day. What really sets Tony & Tina's apart is the customer service. The owners genuinely care about their customers. I've only had one issue, and it wasn't even their fault. It was a delivery service problem. They personally responded and made sure everything was handled professionally and promptly. If you haven't been there yet, give them a try. Grab a sandwich, check out the desserts, and if you're feeling lucky, they even have gaming machines. If you're busy and work from home like I do, their app makes ordering incredibly easy. Tony & Tina's has earned a customer for life!

Well I saw someone comment on this place in a Facebook group. I never heard of this place so I ran over the next day. Had their Chicken Sandwich which was divine! I had it exactly how it comes. Served on a fluffy brioche bun with homemade cole slaw and some other sauce? Yumm! Fried to perfection. Appeared to be handmade (not frozen) huge and crispy! Easily could share! This place is nothing to look at but could be a gold mine if they did some easy cosmetic changes. Next time I'm getting their cheeseburger which came highly recommended? The owner was super sweet as well. Go with an open mind. Fantastic food!

The menu is relatively simple but still provides a good variety of options. I ordered the Scorsese, which came with mortadella, burrata, pistachios, pistachio cream, arugula, and hot honey; in the Regular size. The total cost came out to roughly $11, which I felt was very reasonable given the size of the sandwich. The Regular, being the smaller size option, is at least as substantial as what you'd get from Subway, for example. But the quality is miles above. They have a slicer to cut all the cold cuts in-house. All of the ingredients in my sandwich were fresh and delicious, and I loved the way the flavors complimented each other. I would definitely visit again if I find myself in the area!

In light of Rosh Hashanah, we were looking for Jewish places to eat and came across Schmaltz Deli…read more We never knew there was a Jewish deli in the area and boy were we missing out. As soon as we walked in, we knew it was going to be a great experience. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor tables available as well as a traditional deli counter. They also have a drive thru! You can choose to order at the counter or be seated with a more traditional restaurant-like service. Our waiter was young but very professional and provided great recommendations. To start, they bring a complimentary bowl of bagel chips (a unique twist and a great way to repurpose old bagels). For my meal, I had a half American sandwich with a bowl of matzo ball soup. It was simple but delicious. On our way out, we stopped at the deli and ordered a few rugelach. They tasted so fresh! My favorite was the apricot flavor. Definitely hope to be back real soon to support such a great spot! Shana Tova!

3.5 stars, but rounded up because I didn't feel they deserved any deduction…read more I was REALLY looking forward to their #20 Old New Yorker, which I got in their Navel Cut pastrami. It was a solid 7, which is why I place it at 3.5 stars. I may be being picky here but it just wasn't to the level of "melt-in-your-mouth" pastrami standards for me. Not to say it wasn't good, because it was perfectly fine. In fact, it's better than most of the pastrami sandwiches I tried in Chicagoland. Maybe it's the fact that I had to bring it back to the office to eat it, and half hour had gone by and pastrami weren't as warm and the Jewish rye had become soggy by the time I took the first bite. I mean, it goes without saying that the sandwich would have been 3 times better had I sat down immediately and had it. Again, all things considered, it was a perfectly good sandwich. One interesting thing was that I had never been to an establishment that included a half sour pickle instead of a normal one and gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised. Pickles can be a hit or a miss for me. I like my pickles to be crunch, but some places offer overripened ones that become borderline mushy. Schmaltz's half sour pickle was not overly salty or sour, making it very attractive for me. The more I'm thinking about it, I'm convinced that I'll have to go back and try their #14 Sloppy Paul, which is the corned beef with sauerkraut, which is another favorite of mine. And this time, I'll be sure to dine in and give another review of it to see how much I like them better.

Have tried a few times the past 18 months or so with very good priced groupons, BUT I will no longer go back. The large sandwich which the bun was much less bread than the last time and there was not enough meat to cover the entire bun. Fries were way greasier than in the past. The meat has grizzle chunks in them. We have been the only customer in the place the last few times. Way too overpriced for the size and quality. You get a way better sandwich at Cozzi Corner or Jersey Mike's. Our family really used to be a fan of the Mojo's, but I am not sure how much longer they can stay in business.

Mojo's East Coast and Jersey Mike's both have their strong points too, don't get me wrong, but I feel that Potbelly offers the best quality for the buck, and is always consistent. Being the closest to home makes it a no-brainer when choosing where to go on days when I do decide to go out for a sub (the other 2 snag me only when I happen to be near them). Super-friendly service (and sometimes a free cookie to boot).

So the sandwich was just OK. Nothing special or mind blowing. You get what you get when you go to a…read moreplace like this. However my disappointment stems from doing a mobile order at the same time as numerous people waiting in the line. The people in the line got their sandwiches immediately. I was waiting and waiting by the pick up location even though they acknowledged I was there and waiting for my order. I did not feel prioritized. My lunch party who ordered at the line, actually finished their whole entire lunch before I even got my food. So I guess the moral is, don't do a pick up order at this location unless you have tons of time to kill and wait.

My husband and I went here for the first time tonight and were not disappointed. We were looking…read morefor a place with chicken sandwiches, so that's what we ordered. Hubby got the combo with fries and a drink, and I just got the sandwich. The sandwiches are huge. Like the size of my hand with my fingers splayed out. So the portions are great. Prices may seem high to some, but for what we got I think it was reasonable. I'm leary of meat these days as quality seems to have gone down at a lot of places, but that wasn't an issue here at all. The chicken was very tender and juicy. The seasoning was really unique and the sauces on the sandwich were delicious. I'm not sure what the flavors were. It was kind of like a BBQ sauce, but there were spices in there that were more maybe Indian or Mediterranean? The ranchy sauce combined with the BBQ and seasonings was very flavorful but not overpowering. The cheese was melty and delicious, as well! Honestly, not a single improvement to be made, imo. The fries are seasoned with something similar to the sandwiches. Unique and yummy. Some might find them too salty, but we enjoyed it. The sodas aren't name-brand, which I really liked, as I prefer to not support Coca-Cola or Pepsi brands. They also have desserts, but we were too full to try them. Maybe next time! There were many things in the menu, salads, bowls, sandwiches, rotisserie chicken, brisket, drinks, shakes, Chai tea... Lots to try! I'll be back to try the Chai and dessert, for sure. The decor was laid back and comfortable. Tables are picnic table style and easy to get in and out of, as well as sturdy for those with larger bodies like me, but they could be difficult for those with mobility issues. Something to bear in mind if you aren't able-bodied. The staff was very friendly. It was very clean and the bathrooms were nice. Cute decor with a country and highland cow vibe. Please give this place a try! I really don't think you'll regret it.

Seems like a nice family owned restaurant. I was tempted to eat inside but I opted to eat in my car even though the inside was very clean and had a nice vibe, only critique is seats were a little worn. Edit: Also! I was reading the past reviews and I don't know if they changed their pricing, but i got two sodas, the sandwich and fries and it came out to like $13, which in this economy was not bad at all! 4.5/5 - I will be frequenting this spot weekly for lunch. I want to try the other sandwiches but that vodka parm was so good. We'll see.

The cutlet was cooked so well and the dressing had great flavor!! The KO Philly's meat was so tender and we really enjoyed trying something new with all the flavors of the KO Philly. Didn't give 5 stars because it was a bit expensive for 2 subs (that don't come with anything) & the KO Philly needed more jalapeños to offset the sweet BBQ (the jalapeños were a great touch!)

The dining area has many tables and booths. However, the dine in and to go entrances are separate. I did notice the to go side was a lot busier. We were greeted with smiles and sat right away.

The sauce served with the chicken tasted like pizza sauce to me. Our server didn't check on us during our dining experience.

Unfortunately when I went on a Friday afternoon the dining area was closed. Looked like they were filming and taking pictures. They were in the kitchen too. Anyway, I placed an order to go and less than 10 minutes later I was out the door. Ordered the BAM cheeseburger and small fries. A little pricey but then everything is. The mixture of beef and lamb is luxurious. Great blend and let's hear it for a good old fashioned char burger! The spices and sauce are subtle yet distinctive and unique. Wonderful flavors throughout. The fries are the larger/thick cut that I usually don't enjoy, but these were fried perfectly and had a great texture. Now I'm going to be nit picky on the build of the burger. And this is obviously personal preference. The burger patty is a generous size. However, the cheese was so melted and thin, I barely noticed. The onion was a raw white onion and also a generous cut. I would prefer a red onion or grill them. As it was, the onion kind of dominated the flavor. The tomato, pickles, and lettuce were all good, which added up to a tall build. Finally, a brioche bun. I know, the world loves a brioche bun. On a burger, I don't want the extra sweetness of brioche. Give me a good old potato bun or sesame seed bun instead. Nothing bad about any of the above. Great service, fast and friendly. I look forward to the dining room open and trying a gyro plate! I'll be back for sure.
