My favorite sandwich place. Great menu of Italian sandwiches, salads, plates, and paninis. I love the chicken pesto, meatball, and tuna sandwiches. The soups are always good and not too salty.

My absolute favorite Chicago hot dog and burger places but I usually order their chicken breast sandwich. They load everything with lots of veggies.
They flew in food to the White House at President Obama’s request.
