Al's #1 Italian Beef - Chicago

Italian Soaker!!! The most delicious thing on the menu! For 3$ you can get a full hoagie dipped in the beef juices, no meat, no peppers all carbs and fat : Atmosphere is as expected.

Next time I will ask for the gravy on the side. But still very delicious

Place is clean, food is good, prices are reasonable, and the service is great and the ppl are friendly. What more could you ask for? Only thing is, i dont know if the famous italian beef sandwich is so great. Seems to me to just be a hot beef sandwich. Dont get me wrong. It was very good. But nothing a regular person who can cook a roast couldnt pull off. I did expect something extraordinary when i tried chicagos famous italian beef. Maybe a signature dipping sauce or house spices, or something that is a house “secret”. So i rate it high for quality and restaurant experience, given that the staff here are awesome, but i dunno that its that origional. BUT, they do know how to cook beef, ill give em that. And as a french fry lover, they have great fries!

Friendly staff, neat, clean professional and polite. Orale

Great service. Great staff. True Chicago street food!
