Holy smokes. Wanted another Italian beef before leaving the greater Chicago area. Found this gem close by to our hotel in Glenview. Super tender beef dipped in delicious au jus. Will definitely come here if ever in the area again. read more

As I was out and about, and saw this place. Decided to have lunch and get their Bomber sandwich. It's a jazzed up Italian beef it came with their special house sauce, Swiss cheese, pickles, grilled onions and more. This is a small spot that also does the long party subs and catering. As I sat down to eat to flavor was good. The special sauce threw me a bit. It was just that it was a different taste than a normal Italian Beef. The fries were salted well and had a nice crispness to them. If I was back in the area I would stop again. read more

This is a soft opening. But so far not real impressed. Service is agonizing slow. Waited half an hour for our food. Seems odd for a store that's been in business for 60 years! OK food but small portions. Had the gyro. Wife had the tuna, she said just ok as well. May give them another chance, but not till they get their act together. read more

Food was decent but the customer service was horrrrible. No online ordering and tried calling their phone to call ahead an order they refused to pick up. I know they refused because I arrived and stood in line called again and watched as they ignored their phone. read more

I don't normally write a review, but the Ruben Sandwich at Spiro's in Glenview, IL is grossly horrible. The sandwich was extremely greasy, packed with a lot of sauerkraut and very little Corned Beef. It Didn't really taste like a Ruben Sandwich! And the sandwich was very expensive...$18.95 just for the sandwich & no pickle, or fries. SAVE YOUR MONEY. When I nicely complained to the owner he didn't seem to care! read more

Not sure why I never knew of this place. Lived in Glenview for over a decade in late '80's-90's. Been here since '67. First visit I had the delicious Italian beef, dipped hot. Very meaty sandwich either 6" or 9". Make it a bomber with Swiss, pickles, onion and special sauce my next visit. New location at 1880 Glenview Rd is currently under construction likely opening 2026. read more

Order a bomber at 2:00 on monday, they say we ran out. Place has been open for 60 years. Get an Italian instead, was ok, not enough oil and vinegar. Waited 28 minutes for a sandwich. No sense of urgency from the owner and his helper. Owner has no personalty. People that ordered after me got a bomber too. Wont be back. So many other places that are much better. Stay away, overpriced too. read more

I know they are relocating to a new location but I will miss the cozy spot on Waukegan Road. They have the best French fries ever. I usually get the veggie sub. I am not a vegetarian but I do like this sandwich. The folks are always welcoming and friendly. I am unsure where to park at the new location but I am sure it will all work out. read more

Love Spiros. Usually get their Poor Boys. Fries are good too. Hope the new place has enough parking! read more

Great sandwiches at a reasonable price. Service is great, too. Nice people. Like it a lot.

I had some time to kill while waiting for a train so I figured it was a good chance to try something new. Looking at nearby spots I saw Spiro's and it sounded perfect. It's a small, no frills kind of place, which is just fine. I get the neighborhood secret vibe here, everyone who came in before or after me knew the workers personally. The friendliness is a big plus. I had the 7 inch original poor boy. Overall a really tasty sandwich! Classic deli style meats and veggies. The bread could have been a bit softer which is my only complaint. It wasn't too tough but it did take some effort to get a good bite. I'm around this area often so ill be back for sure. The Bomber is their specialty apparently, I'll have to try that next time. read more

Our go to place for subs. Love the poor boys. Hoping the new place will have better parking. Looking forward to it opening. read more

I can't believe I ate the entire thing. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak combo expecting thin sliced steak that would come from a box. The man behind the counter (Rudy) just kept saying, yeah, no problem to my choices of cheeses. This is definitely where the locals go. This place had a steady stream of customers ordering everything from Gyros to Po'boys. Everyone who entered knew the man behind the counter and he greeted all of them by name. The ambiance is very deli. No special anything really. The place just says order your stuff and we will feed you. The food though... I truly am pleased I made this stop. The Philly cheesesteak had actual chunks of steak. The provolone cheese and the added cheese sauce made this closer to a true Philly than I have been since being in Philly. This thing was a monster sandwich and when i first looked at it i thought that i may need a football team to polish this off. The fries were fresh cut and salted properly right out of the oil. I will return. read more

The food and service were phenomenal. First time there and I will be back! Got the bomber and the gyro. Liked the bomber more but gyro was great as well. Fries were awesome and homemade not from a package. Amount of meat in each sandwich was great too. It was packed full of meat and flavor! Owner made us feel welcome and gave us a small sample which was a nice surprise. What a in Glenview :) read more

Great deli. Friendly service. Reminded me of what it was like in Pennsylvania in the 60s and 70s when I was growing up. Sandwich was GREAT! read more

This is what I will call a hidden gem in Glenview. I have lived not too far from Spiro's for over 10 years now and have always wanted to stop by. The first time I picked up from here, I ordered GYROS SANDWICH and a ROAST BEEF SANDWICH. My kids ate them in the car while we were on a road trip. Once they opened the sandwiches, the smell of the gyro meat and roast beef were drool worthy. Not only did they smelled good, they tasted even better too! There were so much meat in both sandwiches. The next time I stopped by, I got a Gyro sandwich (again) and a PHILLY CHEESESTEAK sandwich for my son. They were amazing. (Of course I get to have a taste of everything I get for them ;). The sandwiches were made to order. Both times I've gone, I probably waited about 10 minutes for two sandwiches. Everyone was friendly, accommodating, and very efficient. They had a few tables inside, everything was clean, and they also had a few tented tables outside. I will go back for sure. 100%. read more

The Bomber was spot on delicious and my friend who got a more traditional sub enjoyed his sandwich too. The staff was great, very friendly and even gave my friend a generous sample sized portion of the bomber for free. This place is tucked away a bit out of sight and even though I drive past fairly often I never noticed until I saw the Yelp reviews. Definitely would recommend. read more

Spiro's Deli is delicious! One of my friends recommended this place to me, and I stopped by for lunch one day, and the sandwich didn't disappoint. I got the veggie sandwich with hot peppers and made it a meal with fries and a drink. The fries are made fresh, and they were great! All the ingredients were fresh, and the sandwich was great. They do get super busy during lunch time so I'd call ahead and place the order. They have great music playing, and have some indoor and outdoor seating. I'll definitely be back! read more

best Beef Sandwich (Bomber) in Chicago and I love plenty of other shops beef. game changer

I got a double cheeseburger, my friend got a gyro pita sandwich. They were both good as was the service. The place itself is old and worn. If it were more modern or the prices were cheaper I would add a star to the rating. read more

I was looking for a solid sandwich option after visiting one of my kids who attends college north of Chicago, on my way back to O'Hare. I decided on Spiro's based on the enthusiastic reviews. It's a small place; maybe 6 tables, in a strip mall. I walked in and the place was clearly full of local regulars; as people came in, they were greeted by name and asked if they wanted "the usual". I ordered the Italian beef combo; an Italian beef sandwich with cheese and sweet peppers, cheese fries, and a fountain soda. I waited for the food to be prepared, and watched the Syracuse/Norte Dame game on the big screen tv that's in view of all of the tables. The Sammy and fries were ready in about 5 mins. The beef was served slightly "wet", which happens to be the way I like it. The fries were natural cut, sprinkled with seasoned salt, and served with a large cup of yellow cheesy goodness. Well worth the price charged. The sandwich was an excellent example of a Italian Beef; tender meat, very tasty jus, on a fresh roll with soaked up the jus "just right". As I paid, I met the owner, Peter. We both share Greek heritage, and so we chatted a bit. Since it was my first time there, he gave me a sample of their specialty beef sandwich, the "Bomber". It was very kind of him to do that; the "sample" was about 1/3rd of a whole sandwich, and super-tasty. Next time, I'll order a whole one. Recommended for great sandwiches in a friendly "neighborhood" environment. read more

Love their sandwiches. Great service. Would recommend! Ordered two poor boys and they were well made, great italian bread

The staff is so friendly. They don't know me, I've been there twice. Most people I've seen in there appear to be regulars. This visit I asked for a deconstructed sub since it was lunchtime, but the subs were going to be taken for a picnic dinner. They packed all of the wet topping separately for me. I ate mine over two days. My husband devoured his. I have to remember to get back here more often. read more

Their food is amazing!! Love the Bomber sandwich and the roast beef poor boy. The owner and workers are super friendly. We will be going again. read more

Fantastic Italian beef. I mean VERY tasty. Served on a foot long soft, French roll with hot peppers, slightly "wet." My first time here and I'll be back for sure. Great French fries too. The wife and kids loved their chicken pita sandwich, Gyro style. read more

This Spiro's Deli place is so awesome! Absolutely the best in town! The owner suggested I try a chicken sandwich, chose Chicken Caesar pita, and also sampled a couple other sandwiches. All excellent. Met a couple of regulars and now I understand why this place has been in business so long. The ambiance of this place is everything, literally. The vibes and all just really light up my mood. They have a very neat structure and their interior is neat. The inside is clean, neat, tidy, bright, well organized, and decent.

We grabbed sandwiches on the way out of town. The OG Poor Boy was great. We got the tuna for my daughter, who only had 2 bites because it was SWEET. Consider yourself warned. Living in Evanston we probably won't go out of our way to visit again. read more

Best sub on the north shore. Nothing fancy and simple. Been a patron for 40 plus years is the usual. Ordered the 3 foot subs for clients for Xmas and filled them up. Thanks Pete a crew read more

Warning: when you sit down to eat make sure you have napkins. My wife and I always leave this place with our faces decorated when we forget that one step because we can't be bothered to get up to grab some napkins if we forget we are too busy guzzling these delicious dishes down our throats. Amazing food and service ten out of 5 read more
