My wife got the Italian which is her staple lunch selection. She really enjoyed her sandwich and a 1/2 was plenty for her. Portion-wise, it was perfect for me. I'm not someone who needs huge servings, and the sandwich was just the right size--honestly, it worked well as a half sandwich for lunch across two days. For a couple bucks more, you can get extra meat Which we did not do. Great quality, flexible options, and a practical portion size. I'll definitely be back.

Even if I'm driving through and somehow get close to Chicago early enough in a Sunday, I will stop here! They have the best iced mocha as mentioned above. I like it very lightly sweetened with regular milk. The owner seems to always take my order and takes it with care. She goes easier on the syrup since she can always add more but they're perfect every time. That's why we always have to make a stop! I also love getting a half order of lox with all the fixings on a multigrain slice. It's perfection every time! And a side of bacon is crispy every time. Oh...they make the best chocolate chip cookies EVER!!! Like ever!!!! Crispy, gooey amazing and omg if you toasted them...dangerous. Lots of great baked items to choose from. Yummm!! Get there early for the best selection. If they're open, make the stop in! You don't regret it. There's a reason lines are long. Support local too.

When you stop in at Drier's you will feel that you have stepped back in time. This meat market is considered a historic site. When you stop in you have to get the famous ring baloney, bratwurst, and hot dogs. For the holidays we got their boneless half ham, which was absolutely delicious for the Christmas holiday. I got one of their smoked dog bones for my rottie and I'm excited to give it to him. The employees are so kind when you go in, and always are there to help with a recommendation if you are in need of one. The ring baloney is 15/10 I always have to order two or three because they do not last long when I get back to Chicago. The meat market is well priced, and you get the best flavor you could ask for without breaking the bank.

It's unfortunate that I receive the exact opposite on my second visit. I was waiting to be helped and they took two white men, and an elder white lady before me, even though I was acknowledged. I can understand if they're older and they wanna be helpful first, but there is no communication on this.... And then I saw the sign. I should've taken a photo cause it was a little startling, and unfortunate that they expressed so openly their political position and hate for Wokeness. I've heard some stories how they are true MAGA and slightly racist, but you have to experience it for yourself. You have to give a place a chance. And it saddens me the way I was treated on my second time back. Folks everywhere are just so sad and upset these days, every life has been disrupted in someway the last 10 years for multiple reasons. It's stressful out here, but it's also stressful trying to get good quality food with all the regulation changes. I travel out of the country multiple times a year and American food is just the worst. So I'll keep searching for quality in both the product and in the customer service. In some small way, it's good to know a store position because I don't wanna give them my business. It's so weird to fight against progress. And it's even weirder to think Wokeness is a thing. Stay asleep.

Known for their classic New York-style sandwiches, house-cooked corned beef and pastrami, and traditional deli staples like matzo ball soup, latkes, knishes, and fresh bagels, this place truly delivers the full deli experience. Their bagels are traditional NYC style -- boiled, topped, proofed, and baked fresh daily. My husband and I tried the Asiago cheese, spicy pepperoni, and onion bagels, and they were all delicious. Inside the deli you'll also find a huge selection of freshly baked goods including: * Rugelach * Cherry & Strawberry Carnegie-style creamy cheesecakes * Colossal chocolate eclairs * 5-layer carrot cake & chocolate blackout cake * Classic black & white cookies They make 16 different bagels daily along with pastries, and more. You can also grab house-made soups, their popular egg salad, bagel chips, and other deli favorites to-go. The best Matza-ball soup I have ever had! I ordered the #37 Stuffed Grilled Cheese from their creative sandwich menu -- made with sharp cheddar, Schmacon, mayo, two crispy latkes, all stuffed inside challah bread. Wow. From the moment you walk in, owners Mark and Tonia make you feel like you're visiting friends. You can tell many guests are regulars, and anyone new is welcomed with the same warm smile. Our server Paul was AMAZING and helped guide us through the menu. Schmaltz has earned recognition from Chicago Tribune dining lists and West Suburban Living's "Best of the West 2025." Drive-thru available Private party/event room Seasonal outdoor patio seating They also have a wall of photos from guests who travel near and far to visit, which really shows how special this place has become to the community.
