We visited this place yesterday while on s short trip to Chicago. We saw the episode of triple D. When we walked in I was a little overwhelmed they were pretty busy. We got our tray went up to the counter. There were so many options. We told the guys it was our first time they walked us through options and recommended popular menu items. They were so kind and helpful. We will definitely visit again. The food was wonderful, service was great and staff was very friendly. This place did not disappoint.

Delicious! I’m a big pastrami fan and loved these sandwiches! Huge selection if you’re not a pastrami lover which was almost overwhelming. Really cool aesthetic and nice staff. Little expensive for a sandwich but I’m glad I tried it.

Picked up 2 combo pastrami and corned beef sandwiches on the way out of Chicago. They were over $20 for each sandwich, which is pretty expensive but on par with NYC's Katz deli. The sandwiches were decent. They gave you a pickled spear, horseradish, and options for different mustards. They even gave me samples of the meats to try before ordering. The staff is very friendly and efficient and the restaurant is beautiful and clean.

It was intimidating to walk into so many options, and the guys behind the counter didn't look like they wanted to be there, but the ladies at checkout were kind of helpful! We tried a reuben, a turkey pastrami, barley and mushroom soup and a beef knish, and it was all delicious! We had leftovers and loved trying some new-to-us foods. I can't recommend the beef knish enough!!
