    EPIC REUBEN

    We got the urban, pickle chips and the Lesley chow. The pickles have a ton of breading on it the Ruben was the best option for what we ordered. I wouldn't get the Lesley chow again.

    Thoroughly enjoy their food. Plenty of seating indoor and out. The Yardbird is their chicken salad sandwich and it's always so yummy. The added grapes are the best. They have such a fun environment. They have a Stranger Things themed alphabet wall with makes for an awesome photo op. They have homemade koolaid drinks on the counter which is honestly so cool. The Eptokooler is my favorite! They even have a version without sugar!! Friendly service!

    I have visited a number of times and usually been happy. I appreciate the vegan options for certain but this visit was just not at the level I am used to. We ordered a few different things such as the Weird Al ellotte burger was okay. S'mores vegan shake - it had an odd aftertaste,, Vegan beef Sandwich decent but spicy, Was a bit disappointed honestly

    I think most people will enjoy something from their menu. It's definitely a destination spot. The place itself is big an open, full of fun things like video games and artwork. Lots of drink options including a few beer taps. Service was friendly and they give you time to digest the massive menu before ordering. The sandwiches I ordered for pickup were VERY messy but also tasty.

    Forgot the name, but it was the panini with turkey, avocado, peppers & spicy mayo.

    Overall GREAT spot! Paninis were YUMMY!! I would say the prices were a bit on the higher side, but it's totally worth it. First time we visited & most definitely coming back again. They have games & staff was SUPER FRIENDLY :)

    The specialty menu always has something interesting, and the regular menu is incredible. Lots of fried goodness for apps, subs and paninis with weird/delicious ingredient combos, and even dessert and drink options. I'm partial to the epic blt and the smoking pope (brie, avocado, spicy onions, red pepper spread, deli chicken, and pork belly on a garlic panini). They even have keto options. It's a little pricey so be prepared. The only thing negative thing I'll say is that everything is pretty heavy, and salty. Still amazing, I just can't do it all the time.

    Delicious food & unique and fun menu items. Quirky decor, lots of video games and art. and menu with a huge variety of options. This spot is a foodies dream. Every thing I've tried here is good. The fries are so crispy and flavorful. The service is great too, such kind workers & quick service. Tons of seating inside & out. Although it may seem it is a bit pricey the servings are huge and have tons of ingredients on it.

    What can I say, this place is epic. Epic deli is a must try if you're in the McHenry area, but I know of people that have driven over 90 minutes to get food from here. It's never a boring meal here. You can get a bacon wrapped hot dog or sandwich with cream cheese spread and Doritos. The options are endless. My favorites: The Khal Drogo - an Italian beef wrapped in a tortilla and deep fried - chimichanga style. The horseradish sauce just sets it off. The cheesecake! They are always serving unique flavors. The best was a two layer cake - raspberry cheesecake with lemon poppy seed cake, iced together with raspberry icing. Too good. Haven't had it in 7-ish years and still thinking about it. The hand cut fries are perfectly crispy. I'm a sucker for good potatoes. They have cherry coke on tap as well as booze fro yo! Check out their Facebook for all their monthly specials.

    Nice outdoor seating area

    Want to blow your mind? Check this place out. Unbelievable inventory and options for great Italian…read morespecialty items. The place is a mad house ... parking lot is full and be prepared for a grocery cart rally. Went on a Saturday morning. New guy in town for the experience. Multiple deli counters and fantastic choices. Service was excellent. Tried many cold cuts and salads. Hot dishes were popular with other shoppers but that wasn't a priority for us. Great breads to choose from. This old world deli is jam packed full of goodies. So many, we are returning today for another pass. Couldn't make it out the door without trying some of their chocolates. The triple dipped malted milk balls will put you in a coma. Highly recommend without any reservations. Allow plenty of time and grab a cart as soon as you enter. Bon Appetite !

    We were really excited to check out Tenuta's. We had heard about Tenuta's on a couple of different…read morecooking shows. We had already planned on visiting Franks Diner in Kenosha so we were excited to see that Tenuta's was just a few miles from Franks. After our excellent breakfast at Franks, we made our way to Tenuta's. We were both surprised and kind of excited when we arrived at an empty parking lot with plenty of spaces. It was when we attempted to go in that we noticed that they did not open for 15 minutes. Thus the empty parking lot. What happened over the next 15 minutes was something we have never experienced before. Cars began pulling in 2 and 3 at a time. People were walking up in groups to stand and wait for them to open. Keep in mind this was December and it was pretty cold outside. The closer we got to the time they opened, the more people that arrived. It kind of felt like black Friday shopping. People kept lining up and before you knew it, the parking lot was almost full. Wow. All for good reason as we got inside. Tenutas' is a one stop shop. They have pre-made foods, frozen foods, deli hot food, alcohol, of course some cheese, you name it. We picked up some Italian sausage, some frozen ravioli with their homemade sauce and a pack of their Italian beef. We really enjoyed the ravioli and the homemade sauce was delicious. Being a Chicago guy, the Italian beef was good, just not Chicago quality. The mild Italian sausage was very good and we look forward to enjoying the additional links that we have left. Very popular place that we would definitely visit again when we are back in the area.
