I haven't been able to make it out here in years and I'm so mad at myself. I took a risk and had the Brazilian steak sandwich. That thing was so tender and juicy melted in your mouth for the price and amazing value the ambience old-school style of it. Can't beat it for lunch. read more

Spring Forest 2 Deli & Catering - Steak sandwich - Delis Near Me - Willow Springs, Illinois

Tons of choices, it's a deli, it's a pizza joint, it's just good food with many choices. Not a lot of inside seating but lovely large covered picnic area behind. Plan for stair if you eat there in picnic area, some outside seating next to entrance. Had the chili Mac and cheese, very good Mac and cheese but the chili needed a little spice. Everything prepped in to go containers, you order at counter grab your food and go home or outside, service is fast and food is good quality. Wednesday pot roast sandwich is great, plenty of meat and has a great taste, (Wednesday only) Need to try their gelato next time I'm there read more

This place is a primarily carry out place unless the weather is nice. When it is nice, they have lots of tables outside and a beautiful garden area. The service was decent but not the warmest. The food is good. I enjoyed my salad but my friend's jerk chicken sandwich was a highlight. It was on special. She had onion rings and enjoyed them. read more

I've been meaning to try this place based on others reviews and proximity to home/work. I was looking for "cold" food given the heat and this offered that with an extensive menu! Both the chicken salad sandwich and ham and cheese were incredible. Very generous portions and ingredients were fresh, both breads and the lettuce/tomato etc were top notch. I did not see it as pricey...nothing anywhere is cheap these days but you get what you pay for here! Five stars all around and I will be back for repeats and to try other items too! read more

The food is overpriced. Service is slow. No place to eat inside and outside is messy and smells like raw garbage. The owner, Michael Weeg is very confrontational. I would not recommend this restaurant to my worst enemy. read more

Good sandwiches. Nice outdoor eating area. Attended a reception here a few years ago and stopped by for sandwiches before getting on the road. Pepper and egg sandwich was very good! read more

Overall this is a nice establishment. The food is good and they have a really cute garden area where you can eat. The negatives are the people that take your order are not friendly or welcoming. Especially the young gentleman with dark hair. No hello and no thank you. Also, the seating on the small deck is infested with flies. The garden area was closed off for a private party so I ended up having a seat at one of the booths. Their garbage can was completely over-flowing and flies were all over place. I had to leave. Place is a bit pricey too. A salad and an extra large fountain drink came to $24.00. read more

Food is amazing everything I've ordered been great from there pizza to salad,desert Gelato delicious

First time here. Busy spot serving up some great sandwiches and sides. Excellent burger and PERFECT fries. Quiet and relaxing outdoor patio in a beautiful setting. Two read more

I was working south of Chicago and wanted to grab a sub sandwich from a local shop. I did a little looking on Yelp and found Spring Forest 2 Deli. POW!! Nailed it. I ordered a 2 meat / 2 cheese sub and man was my taste buds dancing . Their pastrami and corned beef were lean and flavorful. I added some Swiss and smoked Gouda topped with lettuce, pickles, mayo and mustard. Not only was this sub piled high with 2 meats it was very reasonable ($8.99). If you're looking for a great sub swing by Spong Forest 2 Deli! read more

Placed a catering order for Valentines Day from Spring Forest 2 Catering. Ordered the beef tips, breast of chicken vesuvio, grilled vegetables, green beans with bacon and onion, mashed potatoes with gravy and stuffed mushrooms with sausage. We had 17 people here and as soon as I opened the pans, everybody came into the kitchen because the smell was beautiful. EVERYTHING was a 10+. What a perfect dinner we had. Very happy Hearts. Thanks to Mike and his crew. read more

Love Spring Forest Deli. Sandwiches are fantastic, pizza is thin crust and very tasty! Service is very welcoming, quick and helpful. Cant wait to sit outside in their garden for a nice lunch! read more

I had a turkey sandwich with lettuce, tomato and mayo and it was very good, very balanced with a great ratio of mayo to meat and veggies. Usually it's drenched in mayo and no meat but it was great. My friends loved their steak sandwiches but didn't prefer the chimichurri sauce. And can't forget the chicken fingers. Definitely homemade and very delicious and great bang for your buck!!! We ordered to go and they remembered everything. Great in my book. So service was on point. read more

Great food they are a hidden gem. I've tried multiple items from their menu and honestly, I can't say I want wrong with any of them.

Front register person doesn't seem too friendly. Sometimes you gotta fake that smile girlfriend. Order was wrong, no apologies. Sandwich was average at best. Won't be back even though they're close to home. read more

We love getting lunch at this deli! The menu ranges from basic subs to loaded specialty sandwiches and burgers. As a vegetarian, I have a couple of good options to choose from. There are a couple of indoor seats, but the deli is so cramped that it's not the most comfortable setup. If more than a few people are waiting on orders, the space fills up quickly. The addition of slot machines directly behind the few available seats is unpleasant. I am looking forward to a nice day when I can eat at one of their outdoor wooden booths. read more

Great sandwiches and friendly staff. A beautiful back area to eat and enjoy the views.

Amazing food. Can't believe I've slept on this gem. Been passing it for years every time I head to the preserves w my pup. The younger staff are really kind and polite. The older staff remind me of the diner mommies that'll smack you behind your head for being bad at the dinner table all are great. Will continue to order from this business! read more

Definitely one of the best burgers in the area. They are creative with a standard and ever changing daily menu and a burger of the month. It is clean inside, fresh ingredients, stubborn soda machine, great fries and onion rings. The only downside is that it is carryout. However they do have cute seating outside. I would definitely give their catering side a try next time we are looking to cater. This is a quality establishment, if you want a: fantastic burger, salad, sandwich, soup, pizza, pasta, or catering which is a totally diffent menu that reads like a book, give them a try. Enjoy #AlfieEats read more

Did notice on the visit today that they do have a fancy gourmet soda fountain (I forget the brand) and paper (maybe for hot drinks?) and styrofoam cups are available according to customer preference. If I wasn't just picking up just for me, I'd get some soup or some of the deli/pasta salads they have in the case. read more

I remember their buffalo tenders being amazing, but I wish they were open for dinner so I could pickup on my way home from work.

Fantastic sandwiches and dinner specials all the time. Plus a nice outdoor eating area to enjoy your meal.

My second catering order another phenomenal success. I selfishly do not even want to rave about what a hidden gem full of goodness Spring forest is for fear of them becoming unattainable. From here on out I will only cater from Spring forest, forget about the other options on the south side. Everything I've ordered is fresh, delicious and delivered on time. Thank you!!! read more

I can't say enough about Spring Forest II Deli & Catering in Willow Springs! Last minute we decided to order a pan of mostaccioli for the kids at Thanksgiving and it was great! Definitely not just a hit at the kids table! The staff are friendly and helpful, the prices are affordable and every single item we've tried has been enjoyed by all! I would highly recommend trying them for any holiday gathering you're hosting. Your guests will be impressed. read more

I went to Spring Forest Deli during the weekday hoping to enjoy their fried chicken I had tasted at a catered event and they told me they don't have it every day all the time. I was trying to get them to tell me when they do have it, and the gal behind the counter could not give me a clear time. When I had tasted it last summer at a wedding shower in their beautiful outdoor garden, I thought it was the best chicken I ever tasted! Great ambiance in the garden. I live too far away from it to drop in again to check if they have the chicken that day. In short, good food and ambiance, but disappointment sets in when they don't have what I was craving when I got there. read more

So good! Their Italian beef sandwich baked with mozzarella, and their chili cheese fries are bomb. Best food I've had since I got here from Texas 4 months ago. read more

This review is based on a take out order. The Santa Fe Chicken Sandwich is unbelievable. The bread was so fresh. The veggies were crisp and clean. The chicken and sauce to fill the sandwich was properly proportioned and I could taste it's freshness. Can't wait to try more of their sandwiches. I also had a small chicken dumpling soup that was out of this world. The dumplings appeared to be made from scratch and were light and fluffy. The broth was properly seasoned without too much salt. The soup complimented the sandwich very well. My coworkers also ordered the broccoli cheese soup that smelled amazing. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the neighborhood! read more

Always great food! Have known the owners for about 40 years and they e always had the best food, before and now! read more

I am so glad I found this place! Food is so yummy and homemade. The staff is extra friendly! I would love to come back

Popeye's who? Get this buffalo chicken strip sandwich. It will change your life. Top notch deli! read more

Spring Forest 2 Deli & Catering - Buffalo chicken strip sandwich - Delis Near Me - Willow Springs, Illinois

Love this place for deli Sandwiches! The Gourmet Sub is my go to! The soup is great too! In fact I have never had anything bad here... Place has no indoor seating..fyi has some outdoor steering and a courtyard for eating nothing that will blow you away. Truth be told the overall appearance and accommodations are nothing special but this is not what this place is about. Food...said above I have never had anything bad everything is top notch from sandwiches to pasta salads Staff...same staff for as long as I have been going and they always are friendly but very busy. Overall it's a no fuss place with great sandwiches and specials great lunch spot...even better when you can sit outside... read more

We wanted to have a 50 yr Golden Anniversary party. Well, right now during Covid that seemed difficult. But, Spring Forest did a great party for us. Up to 30 people at the time. Plenty of room in the covered outside area behind the Deli. Few people know how lovely and peaceful it is back there. They provided a great food and drink package and the grandkids could run around! Have your party there but not when I want to have my next party. read more

Ordered a cold turkey deli sandwich. Top notch. Freshest turkey I've had. Hot roast beef sandwich and onion rings were great too. Portions are very large. I wouldn't order pizza again though. You're in a deli. Get a sandwich. read more

I was deeply disappointed by this place. The reviews led me to believe this was a really good deli. The traffic in and out of the door told me the same. But I had the worst Italian sub of my life there. They literally took the meat that was obviously laid out in advance (Subway™-style), folded it in half, shoved it in a roll, and gave it to me with a little lettuce and greasy tomatoes sprinkled on it. I really wish I had taken a photo because it was a joke. The meat tasted fine, but the sandwich was sloppy and carelessly put together. There wasn't even any dressing on it. I guess they rely on the tomato relish or whatever they called it to do the job. It didn't. The atmosphere is very nice and the garden was a lovely place to sit and have lunch. But I really wonder what their specialty is here because the ONE sandwich you can usually count on in any deli--the Italian sub--was the worst I've ever had. In a nutshell: wonderful atmosphere. Terrible Italian sub. read more

My husband and I frequent there. We Never had a bad anything. Everything is freshly made and taste delicious!

Everything here is delicious, from the takeout to the catering. I regularly get their chefs salad. It's loaded with things and super good. Every Christmas we cater their pork and gravy, mashed potatoes, veggiesand creamed cucumbers. It's sooo good!!' read more

Best food and best prices! You can never go wrong with anything you get here! They have the best marinated chicken breast sandwiches and chicken salads!! read more

Referred here by a co worker from the area. It was excellent. No place to sit inside but plenty of outside seating. Several orders in our group & they were all good. Chipotle chicken wrap, burgers, ham & Swiss and all were impressive. We will return when in the area. read more
