This is one of the best places to eat in Chicago. In a city full of culture and good food, that's no small complement. Get a breaded steak sandwich or a chicken parm sandwich.
David FagusNovember 18, 2011With a huge selection of slices to choose from this place has a lot of good choices. My fav is the deep dish from these folks. Easy parking and good prices. Great french fries if you like a side.
C ReyNovember 12, 2016The breaded steak sandwich is the best in the world. You can order the other options like beef or pizza but you're missing out. Get one with peppers and cheese. Also serves a few beer options.
I highly recommend the breaded steak sandwich or the chicken parm sandwich. They are both delicious! If you get the chicken parm, be sure to ask for mozzarella as the sandwich doesn't include cheese.
Erik RowleyDecember 3, 2020Located under the expressway, this is a Chicago staple known for their breaded steak sandwich- think country fried steak w Italian marinara sauce, add hot Giardiniera peppers & mozeralla cheese!
Joe CJuly 17, 2023I had the Sicilian Beef Sandwich. It was excellent except the roll didn’t hold up to it being dipped in gravy well. It was only a minor issue. I also had a cherry Italian ice which was very good.
Michael OAugust 30, 2016You'll always hear how good the Breaded Steak sandwich is. You should also try the Chicken Vesuvio sandwich.
Spoon UniversityJanuary 3, 2017Although primarily a pizza place, Ricobene’s gained fame for their steak sandwich. Bourdain highly recommends you try this mashup of crispy meat, melty cheese, and fresh bread. Read more
Tom KukukAugust 18, 2013Their breaded steak sandwich ought to be on Diner's and Dives! Since the 1920's a staple of southside Chicago casual dining.
Patrick VillanuevaSeptember 15, 2013There's a reason why the Breaded Steak sandwich is one of Chicago's best sandwiches. Recommended: adding on mozzarella and sweet peppers. Also cheese fries.

JC WhitlatchJuly 17, 2013Probably not the best breaded steak in Chicago anymore, but it's the legendary place to get one,- Best breaded steak, awesome pizza, shakes (strawberry!) sandwiches.
iHeard 3February 19, 2013If cops make you paranoid, this isn't the place to be. Otherwise, this is a very safe place to eat because the police eat here.
Maureen SullivanNovember 14, 2013Went in for a slice of thein veggie at 4:30. It looked like it had been out for hours. Had to settle for 4 seasons thin instead. #nothappy
