I love everything about this restaurant the people, the food, the constant talking in the prep area. The Italian beef tastes salty, a little bit sweet, and the texture is very soft and filling on the stomach. Would recommend the Italian beef!
I moved out from Chicago when I was a kid. Jay's is in my old neighborhood and it's a stop I still try to make whenever I'm in the area. Last Sunday my SO and I stopped by after a trip downtown, and not only did we get amazing food but we had a fantastic experience with the employees there. One of t
Great place and the owners were so polite and nice very welcoming and talkative omg .. let me not say the food was delicious and tasty I had the chicken sandwich and he had double burger and everyone else had Italian beef and did they love it. Am from Dixon Illinois I will be going back soon just fo
Best Italian Beef in the city. Probably as old school and authentic Chicago as a place can get. Skip the cheese and go for the hot peppers on your beef.
After going there 30+ years the beef is still delicious, w/ their house made hot pepper giardiniara of course. John's the man. I'm already craving another visit just writing this review. 😬 Decor still the same as well. Memories...
Without a doubt the best beef in Chicago, especially for the price. Never miss coming here when I'm in town, and as usual they did not disappoint. This past visit they actually forgot my onion rings and didn't charge me for them, but the fries were an 11 out of 10 (best I've ever had here, or pretty
Good beef. Straight to the point. They run a tight ship. I got two beefs and two combos past month. Fries were good.
Wonderful food! They really know how to make a good beef. I would recommend this to anyone I meet!
First timer. It was really good but it's no Al's Italian Beef.
Al's is tastier and moister.
Most of the beef at the top of the sandwich was a little bit dry.
They need to dip it and roll it a little bit more before they put it in the bun.
Hot peppers were great.
Prices are good!
Excellent beef, nice size and really tasty. Hot pepper mix of fresh jalapeño and celery adds a nice crunch and light heat. Fast service. Miss the old North Ave. location, but will be back here ASAP.
Great sandwich and service.
Been a long time since I’ve had a good and tasty Italian beef.
I have to make my own now that I don’t live in Chicago anymore. Here visiting so I’m satisfying my cravings!
I'd say this is my favorite beef right now. They are generous with the portion, good price, unique hot pepper mix, I'm impressed. Also, battered onion rings hit the spot. Thanks Jays!
Everyone talks about the italian beef, but WOW the double cheeseburger is just amazing! One of my favorite lunch spots.
This place is the real deal. All the classics you expect, none of the frills. Highly recommended for an affordable meal.
One of the best beefs in Chicago and the best hot peppers. Fresh cut and perfect flavor. Family run and all the staff are great. Awesome value too, lots of meat and peppers on the sandwich!
It is one of the best Italian beef sandwiches Chicago has to offer. Highly recommend it!
