My husband and I shared a Rico, Magpie's version of an Italian beef sandwich…read more I'm super picky about beef sandwiches, and seldom order them. I have to say that the Rico was phenomenal. The beef was tender, well seasoned, and sliced paper thin, complemented perfectly with mild giardineira and beefy au jus.I'd never hesitate to order one again. The service was superlative, and the ambiance warm and friendly.

Turkey or Tuna salad sandwiches served with cheese fries. The service is good, but may take time when the service line gets long. You can go in for indoor dining, but I tend to eat in my car.

To all my foodie friends, I officially have a NEW #1 STEAK SANDWICH!…read more Their legendary Poorboy--steak, melted cheese, grilled onions and hot garlic butter--was phenomenal. Simple, old-school and absolutely delicious. I've eaten my share of steak sandwiches over the years, but Merichka's now sits at the TOP OF MY LIST!

I have tried the famous poor boy twice and i find it just ok. People rave about the sandwich. Today…read morei had the patty melt plate . Which i got the steamed veggies( cauliflower broccoli carrots ) and a side salad with creamy Italian dressing. Everything was really good and i was stuffed . I would definitely have the patty melt again , i think it's a third pounder. Nice size sandwich with the cheese and caramelized onions on rye bread. I hate to be negative about the poor boy so i will say if you like stuff coated in garlic butter/ margarine go for it. I found the meat by itself bland.

An interesting combination of a bar and a bakery. It might be the most interesting place around…read morelike how can you not be intrigued by it. Joliet Bakery Deli & Liquors is exactly that. Has quite the unique selection of pretty much anywhere. The quality varies. It mostly seems like a bar. Pastries and treats in the bakery area seem like an afterthought to be honest. These aren't good at all in quality. Basically it's night from a store bakery. Then they bring these here to resell these. A good deal is a shot of any liquor. It's $3 or so for one. They have a pretty big variety. It's surprising because there's not much room in here. They really do have a lot. Has live music a few times a week it seems so go see when there's a free concert. It's a good way to get attention to a local business and help them a lot. The bakery is off to the side with mostly bags of chips and the most basic of snack items you can get anywhere cheaper than what they sell things.

Every year. Every. Year.

I buy multiple plates of it and freeze it in case I'm having a bad day or there's a freak snow storm in May. I'm not sure if the man who makes the gumbo is also the owner, but he needs a raise. It comes with cornbread. The most delicious also, and not a sliver; they give you a brick of cornbread. Such a friendly place, and actually this time while I was enjoying the quirky signs around the bar, I did take a peek at the rest of the menu. It looks like everything they have is equally worth eating. I tell you what, my soul was pretty happy walking out of there.

This seems like a fairly new, but very nice little place.

This place is directly across the street from the theater, so the convenience cannot be beat. It is a comfortable place with a decent bar and excellent bartender. The customer service could not be beat. The owner was on hand, making sure everything went well through the rush prior to the show across the street. waitresses and food runners were busy, thorough and efficient. The sandwiches we got were fine, but the fries were excellent! Seasoned perfectly and had a great crunch to them. The appetizers were a basic fare. Nothing to write home about, but they hit the spot.

Actually looks like it could be filled with some pretty scary folks but thankfully they were friendly enough. You can get better than expected cocktails along with a few sandwiches. Basic looking building. It's a bar with no windows so it's pretty sketchy looking from outside. There were a few not so bad looking people outside so we took our chances and were pleasantly surprised. A limited menu. There's mostly drinks, and not much to eat usually. It's about $4 for a basic cocktail. There's limited liquors but they have Jameson. About the only food is $1 bags of potato chips. They also have a few sandwiches that are premade. Have to say it's better than it looks. It's located on McDonough Street. There's not much else around here besides auto garages and convenience stores so it's the best place to hang out or whatever.

I am a critic of sauce, grew up in New York family owned pizzerias been in the restaurant business for long time . In my opinion, the sauce should be cooked more.

She offered great suggestions. Ended up with a sour cream donut, assorted russkie and a lemon danish. The danish was sweet and sour goodness. I'd never had a russkie before and we sampled a couple flavors before taking home an assorted pack. Hoping to make a stop in the morning to take home some bread home.
