I'm new to the area and was really crazing a good sub sandwich. When I walked in the tables were full so I took that as a great sign, I was taking my sando to go, so no big deal. Place was clean and orderly, small spot. Quick order at the walk up counter, got a 9" turkey and hard salami sub with all the fixings, a coke and a some chips. $17 and change and worth every penny. Bread was perfect blend of soft but still had chew, lunchmeat was very fresh and veggies crisp. The mayo and seasonings really took it to the next level! I'll definitely be back often! read more

Coffee is great. Sometimes the bread can be tough with very little deli meat and loads of lettuce on the sub. Would be nice to have cheddar cheese. read more

Great buffalo chicken sandwich and café con Leche excellent service. We'll go there again.

You're in Albany Park and could use a decent cup of coffee or a deli style submarine sandwich served on a French roll. Inside the sub shop they offer two small tables for two, for those seeking to dine in. read more

Wow! I've been wanting to try this place for 2 weeks, since I heard about it. I can't believe they don't have a line down the block. Every bit as good as D'Amatos on Grand. I ordered the 12" inch Mob and it did not disappoint. My only complaint is this, I'm a Cop and I hate seeing anti Law Enforcement signs, I wish they'd rethink posting the anti Law Enforcement sign. Nice atmosphere, clean establishment, lots of great drink options as well. read more

I found this place during the Albany Park taste of flavors. We went back for lunch & loved it. We decided to order the sandwiches for our block party. They were great! They cut the sandwiches into individual portions & wrapped them each. Very fresh, everyone loved them. This is definitely my go to Sub sandwich place. Good prices and very friendly staff. read more

Absolutely excellent sandwiches! I stopped by to get a bunch for a boat day. She was kind enough to cut all sammies in 4ths. A real crowd-pleaser read more

Truly delicious Italian subs and paninis. Honestly, this little spot could compete with any of the well known Italian deli's like D'amato and Bari, etc! Very fresh, crisp veggies and great meats and cheeses, great bread. I do wish they had a couple side dishes other than chips. Friendly service. Clean but decor is kinda funny. Tiny dining room-just 3 tables and a couple stools. You can blow past it because it's small but look for it because it is good! read more

I just had it today earlier in the day before the thunderstorm came again. I didn't want to drive all the way to west town or more towards the south side for Italian sandwiches and so I looked up the northside and found this gem and I ordered two sandwiches, I got the MOB and the prosciutto sandwiches and OMG I won't be driving far no more towards the south side I'll stay here near the northside right on montrose and kedzie for there amazing Italian subs !! Just got a fan now . I recommend it in a perfect nice multi- cultured neighborhood full of many different foods around this neighborhood amazing gems here . Please try it out you won't regret it . read more

I got the M.O.B. sandwich - hot capicola, volpi genoa salami, hard salami, mortadela, provolone, giardiniera It was a tasty, clean sandwich. Perfectly layered meats. Needs more veggies. The bread was fine; it wasn't dry but didn't impress either. Cashier was very nice and helpful. There's a few seats but it's really a carryout spot. Simple, easy go-to lunch spot. read more

Sottomarino - Turkey Sub 9" (but feels like a 12", good size! - Sandwiches Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Excellent sandwich, delivered in a shockingly fast time. I got the basic Italian sub, as is, no substitutions, or additions, other than hot giardiniera. Everything was fresh and well balanced, and although it wasn't reinventing anything, it was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time. I'll definitely order again. It was also pretty cheap, considering the amount of meats and cheese, all around great first experience. read more

I finally made it this sandwich shop. I'm very picky when it comes down to sandwiches and trust me you will not be disappointed. The sandwiches are freshly made, there is the perfect amount of seasoning. The service is great. I will definitely be going back. read more

So excited this Italian sub and coffee spot is here in Albany Park! The tuna was delicious and my very picky kids finished every bite. We also had 2 of their 12" subs and yhey were both huge and delicious. Soft chewy bread, a SanPeligrino and Iced coffee rounded out the meal. Nino the proprietor was friendly and positive. If you haven't given it a shot yet I highly recommend for coffee and lunch! read more

Probably one of the best Turkey subs I've had in a while. They put roasted red peppers on it which was a nice touch. Fresh lettuce and tomatoes. I loved the bread. Crunchy but not hard. The service was fast and my order was accurate. I would definitely recommend this cute little sub spot near Kedzie and Montrose. read more

This place serves excellent Italian subs and coffee. They're super friendly. Great place for a quick fresh lunch.

This place is a great local addition! Friendly service and a small but welcoming interior. I ordered a Proscuitto sub and snagged a Sanpellegrino to boot. They sliced the meat in front of me and crafted the sub pretty quickly. Significantly better quality than any other sandwich options around. read more

Looking for a good sub in the neighborhood has been impossible...until now. I needed subs for a family party and I thought for sure I was going to have drive out to Rex's on Harlem or way down to Bari on grand. Those places are always going to be great when I'm in the area...but Sotto is going to be my go-to now. From the bread to the ingredients...these subs had great spirit and a spunky plot!! I got the MOB and the Caprese. Both were made fresh and TAAAAAASTY! Can't wait to try some other choices. Staff was friendly and fairly quick. Welcome to the 'hood Sotto!! read more

Soo good. Bread is soft and fresh. All the ingredients are so good. Roasted red peppers adds an element unlike a normal Turkey sandwich. Picture does not do justice because I already bit into it. I got everything on it. I will be back to try the MOD, caprese, abd muffulet read more
