    First time here and I must say that I really liked it the pasta salad was really good but the sandwich had to much dressing and it made the bread saggy you should only put a splash of dressing and not soak it where the bread comes out saggy, well besides that I will be returning to try something different and serve was great Also a little pricey but worth every penny

    After so many years past, I still enjoy the subs here and the guts are still the best ever where they serve every sandwich with a fork. I literally ate every sandwich combination here. Other than the price going up the quality is top-notch. The interior is clean and they do disinfect after each customer leaves the booth due to these Corvid times. I recommend Peppo's to all who enjoy a classic sub.

    I must be the LAST PERSON in Chicago to have discovered this gem!! This is what a sub should be!!! Soft yummy bread... tangy toppings and fresh meat!! Combine that with a very friendly staff that serves real life happy meals with a smile and you just can't beat it!!

    The day I stopped by to get a pesky BF FROM yelling at me...I made him order GUTS for breakfast.

    There are sandwiches and there is Peppos. Let's talk ambiance of this original place of delicious architecture. Upon entering this spacious restaurant that can seat parties of over 30 people comfortably (I only say this because I wish I had 30 friends and lunching alone makes the space seem even more grand). Although the space is pretty huge for a deli spot, the staff and owner makes everything feel so cozy and warm. The decor is simple but branded smart with definition of proud craftsmanship when it comes to deep roots of family created recipes that leave you salivating for GUTS!!! GUTS...you have to have it to not request it on your sandwich. No way can you deny the GUTS! WHO THE HECK COMES TO PEPPOS AND deny GUTS? the lady ahead of me in line with an Afro so big I couldn't see the menu. Not that I needed to...I want pastrami, mustard, Swiss and GUTS...ALWAYS! I wanted to shout to the lady...hey! You have to get the GUTS...otherwise...go to Arby's up the street with those bland a$# taste buds... Since being loud in public is frowned upon...I kept it to myself. PEPPOS is my fave place for gutsy reasons...tell the owner...60465 Clarissa said it for a small discount on pop and chips....

    Windy City Cheesesteak Sub

    Came here Saturday at 3:53 PM. I ordered the Windy City cheesesteak 11 inch sub. Online ordering had it for $12.95 plus tax which was exactly $13.85 and the menu board inside the restaurant also had the exact same price. Somehow I was charged $17.58. Then when I asked the girl why , she told me the Windy City is double price and the most expensive sub they have. Well that's clearly not true, based on your online ordering and also your menu board. I did not get any extra toppings. So why was I overcharged $3.73. Did she leave herself a tip, put some other stuff on my receipt? Who really knows. Then when I actually got the sub it was terrible. It was NOT Philly steak at all, it was literally Italian beef meat. My family was disappointed. Italian beef meat and Philly steak is not the same thing. I did complain to the restaurant, it's been almost 2 days so no response as of yet.

    Arrived late on a Saturday, 1/2 hour before closing. (Not an issue) First time here. Ordered a pastrami and salami sandwich toasted. Included the garlic "guts". Not your traditional Sub sandwich. But the new flavor variety was pleasant and a nice change. The "guts", a medley of diced pickle, onion, garlic, and tomato spooned atop of the sandwich as a garnish. Area was very clean, great parking and friendly staff. Soda fountain Dr Pepper had the right carbonation / ice - syrup balance. We will return.

    Great place for lunch! Friendly staff, so many options! Love coming here to try the different sandwiches. You also gotta make sure to throw in "The Guts" and toast your sub! Try the sandwiches in different combinations, you'll love them all! Did I mention their staff is friendly and patient?! Two thumbs up every time!

    The best sandwich I've ever eaten at any location across the United States. I travel 40 weeks out of the year and I've never had a sandwich as good as this one. Not only do you get great quality ingredients with the staff is awesome including seeing the owner making sandwiches back there. They also have a great place to sit and enjoy your lunch. I highly recommend if you're anywhere near this location to stop in and try one of their sandwiches.

    Food is very tasty but a bit overpriced for counter only service. Typical sandwich fast food shop.

    Good was great and staff was very friendly. This is the 2nd time I was here and will be going…read moreagain.

    After driving by this place multiple times and being repeatedly enticed by the aromas, I finally…read morestopped in to give it a try. Ambience 4/5: This place is fairly new and has been well maintained since opening (it looks like it's been around for roughly six months). Walking in, the space is very bright thanks to large bay windows, but the natural light isn't harsh -- you don't feel like you're under a spotlight. The restaurant had a mild scent of cleaning products, which wasn't overpowering and didn't detract from the food smells; it just gave the impression that the surfaces are well-sanitized. The only downside is the parking situation. After reading other reviews, I can empathize with anyone trying to come during lunch or rush hour. There's not much the owners can do about it, but it's something to be mindful of. Food 5/5: I ordered the chicken wrap meal and it was excellent. It came with two wraps (about hotdog-sized but longer, roughly 8 inches), a side of fries, pickles, and a drink. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and tasted like it came straight off the grill. The bread was soft and warm, and after checking their website, I learned it's made fresh, which definitely showed. The fries and pickles weren't anything extraordinary, but they were solid and paired well with the wraps. I saw another review comment on portion size, but as a 240-pound man, I felt completely satisfied with two wraps, fries, and a drink. When I return (which I will), I'm definitely trying the other meat options, as well as the veggie offerings -- especially the falafel, which is great news for my veggie-heavy wife. Service 4/5: I intentionally came after peak lunch hours (around 1:30 p.m.) to avoid the parking issues others mentioned. There were quite a few staff members present (~10 or so) as well as a gentleman who I believe was either the owner or the manager. At the time, I was one of only two parties in the restaurant. While the staff wasn't rude, I was a little surprised that neither the manager nor the employee who took my order greeted me or said thank you. It's a small thing, but noticeable. That said, the food came out quickly (about 10-15 minutes) and was hot and nicely prepared. Overall 4/5: I'm still a bit of a novice when it comes to Middle Eastern cuisine, but I know enough to appreciate the flavors and want to explore more. Nashmi, as a Jordanian food vendor, is shaping up to be one of my go-to spots when I'm craving these flavors. It hits the right notes and leaves me wanting to come back and try more.
