Matt & Mo's is located inside the ice cream shop, Doug's Delight. Its most notable menu item is the Italian beef sandwich. The sandwich originated in Chicago, so I like that Matt & Mo's has a replica of Wrigley Field's ivy wall. On the flip side, I didn't like being charged a 4% fee for paying with a card. My wife ordered a pepperoni pizza puff along with French fries. The pizza puff fell apart too easily, and was basically a larger version of a Totino's pizza roll. The fries were standard. With my sandwich, I ordered poutine. The consistency and flavor of the gravy made the poutine much better than average. As for the Italian beef, it did not disappoint. I regret getting just sweet peppers, as I should have gotten either hot or mild peppers with the sweet. I did get the whole sandwich dipped in au jus, which was the right move. This was my first time having an Italian beef, so it's hard to judge, but I definitely enjoyed it. Next time, I will bring cash to pay, and might even try some of the other menu items. I look forward to trying Doug's Delight, as well. read more

Service was amazing. I've never had an italian beef before but I was talked through the toppings, spices, and sauces. Very patient and great vibes at the order and pickup window. I ordered the combo which is possibly the best sandwich I've ever had. Moist/well-seasoned beef, garlic bread with just right amount of garlic, italian sausage, and I added provolone as well. Everything meshed together perfectly. read more

I would eat here once a week I can't lie. I don't even wanna go anywhere else for an Italian beef in mi as this spot has it spot on and best out every other one I've had here in MI. read more

If you want a sandwich that'll knock you out in a good way and fill you up, this place is a must try. You order at one window and pickup at the other. They were quick but not so quick that you think it's some microwaved nonsense. It's delicious, the beef is fantastic but the hot peppers make it even more enjoyable. I'm not someone that can handle a ton of heat so when I say hot peppers, they're not over the top or unbearable. They are a delicious complimentary piece to the amazing beef. I will warn you to eat it quickly, if you are driving some distance before you bite into it, the sub bun will be soggy. But even then it's delicious. The toasted ravioli is a great side, it's crunchy and if you eat it too quickly the insides will burn your mouth like a good old pizza roll. But man, what a spot and what amazing food, definitely put this place on your list. read more

In my humble opinion, this is Theo place to go for an authentic Chicago-style Italian Beef, a la "The Bear!" Matt was born and raised in Chicago, and brought his Italian family recipe here in 2015. Initially operating out of a food truck, they took over historic Doug's Delight Ice Cream Shop, located in Hazel Park, in 2020. There is no indoor seating, but there are outdoor picnic benches with umbrellas. They have kept the ice cream shop, and feature special flavors, such as banana. Their Italian beef sandwich ($13.50 - $14.50) comes with either spicy or mild peppers. You can order it dry, wet, or dipped where the whole sandwich is submerged in broth. I always have it dipped, but that's not very doable in my opinion if you are getting it to take home. They also offer great appetizers like deep-fried ravioli. read more

Best toasted ravioli I've ever had and their marinara is to die for. I don't think I've eaten anything else whenever I stopped.

The most delicious sandwiches in all of the land!!! If it wasnt an hour away Id go more often. We split a big ol order of fries between two people and had plenty. The Italian Beef, spicy onwet is the only way to go! Staff was quick but friendly and engaging, happy to talk about the food and location. Prices are a little higher than you might expect but are still affordable and priced right for what youre getting. Would 100% recommend to anyone who loves a big meaty sammy read more

This place has the best italian beef in Michigan that I've had hands down! 100% would go back. Food is fire

Incredible Italian beef sandwich! Fantastic poutine!! Great customer service! Quick response when I picked up my order.

Since Hippo Dogs closed in Troy I've been grudgingly driving to the east side hell scape of Sterling Heights for Portillos... Their Italian Beefs are horrible... Now I have Matt & Mo's to get from. They're sandwiches are really good, mine could have used another second in the gravy to be as wet as I like them but the peppers and seasoning was on point!. Also they give you more meat than you'd get at Johnnie's so win, win! I give them 5 stars, but the the bun on a Chicago dog I got was stale. It's January and they probably don't sell a lot of them compared to the beef. Anyway... Good Stuff! I'll be back for more. I didn't see a polish on the menu, I miss that Polish Hippo and the Maxwell Polish is another Chicago treat I miss. read more

This is an outdoor area next to a combo of an ice cream stand and a beef sandwich shop. Picnic tables scattered around, you go to one window to order and pay, and another to pick up after 20 minutes or so. Most people are there for the Italian Beef, dry, wet, or dipped. They also have pork sandwiches, and fries with different toppings and some other sides. We went Sat at noon and they were crowded. Very limited lot parking, and side street parking. When we were there the cops were working the parking hard to find violations they could ticket. It was really good food. Maybe not quite worth the price and the wait (40 minutes between in line to order and waiting for the food), but good. read more

In my mind, a staple in the metro area... Matt & Mo's always has great tasting quality fresh hot food. Always. I've been five or so times now, tried many items on the menu, never had food I didn't like. This is THE place in the metro area for Italian beef. There may be others that have it, but are they as good? I don't know. All I know is at least a couple times I've been I've seen folks from Chi-town walk-up and give compliments on the Italian beef, and Chicagoans will keep it real about Italian beef. I've enjoyed the sausage on buttered garlic bread as well as the chi-dog and the coney when you're in the mood for those. The damage can get a little high for fast food but it ain't your normal fast food. Everything is made with care... and they have ice cream too. read more

Looking for a fun lunch adventure, we found an Eater Detroit article that recommended Matt and Mo's as a great sandwich spot. I lived in Chicago for 15 years and the hubs was born and raised in the Chicago suburbs, so we were pumped to find a possible new hot dog and Italian beef spot. We ordered a Chicago dog and an Italian beef, and split the two. The Italian beef was out of this world and the Chicago hotdog was the best Chicago dog we have had outside of Chicago. Our ten year old son enjoyed his plain hot dog with ketchup. The only negative was that when we asked for a refill on our pop, the young woman that waited on us said she didn't think they did refills. It was a sunny but windy and chilly day so we ate in our car, but I'd love to come back on a nice day and eat at the picnic tables that they have. We will for sure be back! read more

Inspired by watching The Bear on Hulu I decided to seek out an Italian beef sandwich near by. Matt & Mo's shares space with an ice cream shop in Hazel Park. The walk up window attendant was very nice and helpful answering all my questions. I ordered the Italian beef with hot & sweet peppers, dipped. I also ordered a side of fries with the honey sriracha & 1000 Island dipping sauce. It was a very good meal. The one thing I noticed about the Sando was the meat was a bit dry even though it was dipped. I did use some of the dipping sauce on the Sando and it was pretty good. I would go and try it again for sure. The peppers were good with the dipped bread and meat. read more

Matt & Mo's - Dipped Italian Beef sandwich with both hot & sweet peppers - Food Trucks Near Me - Hazel Park, Michigan

This was a soft 4, should probably be a 3-3.5. Got the Italian beef today, dipped. First time here. I think it has potential, but there's a few things missing.. The beef itself is flavorful, but I was immediately struck, and I mean first bite, by how flavorless the sub bun is. I mean it's like completely empty tasting. Maybe that was the point considering it might get dipped or wet, but I disagree... the bun should have lots of flavor, it's the vehicle for your meat! Combined with the lack of taste on the bun was the need for salt. In the beef and the jus, and even in the bun too. Crispelli's makes amazing bread, but I don't think they do sub buns and if anything Tringali's sub buns are decent enough with more flavor. I'll be back to try it again and other items and it's nice to have Guernsey ice cream so close by! read more

I really enjoy this spot. It's outdoors and in a great little area. I appreciate their customer service as well as the small menu with a great variety. I am Obsessed with their toasted ravioli (the sauce could use a little spice). Their Chicago hot dogs are beef and delicious. I probably grab 1 every week. Enjoy! read more

OMG awe LOVE this place!!! This has taken the place of our autumn cider mill tradition! The cider donut & pumpkin/vanilla cinnamon twist soft serve creations are TDF! And we always order wayyyyyy too much because I want to try it all! (It's ok- made it home and fed us the next day too!) My husband likes the half&half: hot beef and sausage sandwich, jus on the side (also comes with a marinara) & we both love the poutine. (Big ole cheese curds on there!) I'm a "mostly vegetarian " so I come for the desserts and OMG! (See pics). Couldn't decide between the cider donut sundae or the glazed donut sandwich so got them both, and honestly, both fantastic but I'll side with the sundae if I have to pick only one. (It made it home into the freezer and I ate it for breakfast today ) Bring your dogs too- they have Pup Cups for only $1- water's also only $1- which is so fair of them- With tip we spent $40- ordered online and it was ready exactly when they said it would be Tables out front that someone has taken the time to add beautiful mums and really make it feel welcoming and improves the neighborhood- you can tell they take pride in their business and it's appreciated by us all. read more

Legit Chicago Italian beef. Will be back to try a Chicago dog soon. Very friendly worker told me I'd like it better than portillos and she was not wrong! Chicagoland people this is the spot! read more

Wow! Went here on a reasonable weather Saturday about 1/2 hour after they opened. It was already busy and we were in line for a bit and waited about 25 minutes for our food. Ordering was simple- when you could decide what you would eat. You can order online and I believe only when they are already open- which might help you with the waiting time. Had the hot Italian beef dipped. This was pretty wet and they do not slack on amount of meat that they give you. The peppers add up quickly with a heat factor. It is filling so I would go with appetite. The table shared the toasted raviolis and they were awesome! Highly recommend. The siracha ranch French fries weren't my favorite and it could be the hot with already hot (spicy) Italian beef. When I return gonna try the Chicago dog and the sweet potato fries. They also have ice cream!! This looked good also and of course comes faster than the food. I was tooo full. Maybe next trip! read more

Love the food. Best Italian Beef outside of Chicago. Give it a try. Carry Out only in the winter unless you like to sit outside in the cold.

I remember making a trip to Chicago and stopping at the famous Al's Beef. Those sandwiches are so unique, with the entire thing being dunked into jus and the bread completely drenched in beefy goodness. We finally have a place like that here in Michigan, and it tastes just like I remember. I was a little annoyed because I was under the impression that my sandwich had giardiniera (a special relish), yet when I got it there were no additional toppings. I really didn't feel like going back to have them add it, but the sandwich was still great. I just have to make sure to ask for it next time since it's clearly not included with the default order. The toasted ravioli was extremely satisfying with the marinara sauce on the side as well, then washing it all down with a classic root beer float. Will definitely come back read more

Stopped by to get 2 Italian beef sandwiches to go. Ordered wet with provolone and peppers. Was surprised by how much they were for only being 6" long. Took them home for later. When I warmed one up and opened it up I didn't notice any cheese. It was good but could taste more of a bullion beef taste then anything. I've never paid that much for a sandwich that short. read more

Closest you can get to a Chicago Italian beef without driving to Chicago (and yes, better than Portillo's). Tons of juicy beef packed into a soft and fresh roll. I got sweet and hot peppers (they use giardiniera, just like you would get in Chicago; next time I would order extra), and au jus on the side for dipping. I also got a side of shoestring fries (perfectly crisp) with some cheese sauce. Just be aware that it's an ice cream stand, and you're sitting on benches outside. All part of the charm. read more

Run don't walk to this spectacular place. We came here last weekend for the "wet" Italian beef sandwich with sweet peppers. OMG!! I couldn't stop thinking about the darn sandwich all week. Yesterday (Friday) we had to come again for the Italian beef and then the sweet sirachia 1000 island fries. OMG, OMG....this is THE place. The fries and sandwich were the most amazing eats. We will continue to come here. I'm sure everything on their menu is amazing!!! read more

Chicago comfort food at its finest!!! Friendly service! Ice cream or shakes to wash it all down.

Cute little ice cream stand with outdoor seating with umbrellas. Food was incredibly expensive and they need to do something about their bread selection for their Italian beef. Bread was way too thick and dry even after ordering it wet. Tasted like something you could buy at Kroger. Service was on the slow side. read more

This place has the most amazing Italian Beef sandwiches! Being from Chicago I am a beef addict and they are not easy to find in Michigan.

My buddy sent me a Tik Tok video made by @chowdowndetroit Seoung Lee. He recommended the Italian beef sandwich, among other things. So my buddy and I planned on have a late lunch here today. We got here around 3:30, and there was a line. This place was jamming. We stood in line, I think, for about ten, maybe 12 minutes before I got to order. I orderer my food and they told me about 30 Minutes. So I have to point out at this point, I was starving, and I had not had anything to eat all day. So sometimes, I can be my own worst enemy. I am like, wow, is this place overhyped? Am I going to be disappointed? So they finally call my name. I rush up and grab my sandwich and Root Beer. It was such a lovely day out. I went and sat back down at the picnic tables they have outside. I tore into my bag and unwrapped my sandwich, and took a massive bite out of it. Wow, this sandwich was amazing. Hands down, I am coming back here. The only thing I messed up with is that I should have orderer ice cream when I ordered my food. I was still hungry when I inhaled my sandwich, but I didn't want to get back into a long line. Not trying to jab at them the were super busy and I should have been better at ordering. read more

Italian beef was super bland , went back for a Chicago dog was disappointed pretty sure they boil the dogs. A min or two on a flat top would have vastly improved the flavor. If you're looking for a taste of Chicago this is not it unfortunately. Service was on point and fast. Cute outside dining experience. Also got a malt from Doug's. The ice cream joint that's attached to it. They completely destroyed it with what I imagine was a 1/4 coup of malt. Three strikes you're out, really tried to like this spot. If Hazel Park is gonna come up local businesses need to step it up, as a local small business owner I can attest to quality control is what people want and need. Good luck, hope quality improves. read more

So I drove all the way from Romulus to Hazel Park to try there Chicago style Italian beef, being that I was born and raised in Chicago for the first half of my life I definitely wanted a taste of home. Right from the start is was awkward. They said they put the cheese on the bottom instead of on top of the sandwich. and when I asked could they put it on top, I got backlash!! " We don't do that/I don't know if we can do that"... it's freaking cheese !!!! But they reinsured me that THIS IS THE ONLY TIME THEY'll do it.... Once I got my food, I sat down outside the restaurant and began eating. Surprisingly, this was the closest to a Chicago Italian beef that I have had since living in Michigan, so that being said it was worth the drive from Belleville to hazel park. My kid had the cookies'n'cream ice cream. She said it was the best she ever had!!! Overall it was good, the biggest downfall is the price. It's $10 before taxes.... at least 4-5$ over the price you would pay in you were in Chicago. read more
