Talked to the owners, who are just the people you want there to be in the world. They gave us a little sample of hot corned beef while we waited for the magic. Melt in your mouth deckle, after battling chewy or tough fat from other places, felt like my long-lost love coming home from the sea. We ate the sandwich in the car and talked about how great it was to have a beloved food item that was just perfection, like knowing there was something out there in the world that would always make you happy. 10/10, no notes. The pickles plucked on the strings of my heart, thinking about the old pickle barrels from The Milk Pail and other places long gone. "Next time I see you I'll be looking at you." We'll be back soon.

As someone who is not a fan of pastrami or corned beef , I went in thinking I was going to do a Turkey breast sandwich. Nope!

The service was top tier and warmth and friendliness and they make you feel like you've stopped in to visit with family for a bite.

Bought some groceries from this classic store in Waukegan that has old school charm. Cribb Fine…read moreFoods has been a staple in the neighborhood for generations. It may be most notable for the popular butcher section but there's also produce. Has cheap prices on many items. They prefer cash so bring some of that. A small store but it has a lot. It's not as much to choose from as the big chain groceries but there's quite a few finds. The most popular part is the butcher to get fresh meats. Basically that's the area at the entrance. If you prefer things not from animals there's plenty more in the store. Has alcohol. Last time I found a can of Crazy Cowboy for $1.99, and there's other cheap beers too. As for the produce it's not great but it's cheap. It's about $2 to get a few oranges. A few other good things in here. They only have a couple checkout aisles, and they prefer cash but that's not required. For sure it's an important local business. It's a lot better than going to some corporate chain. They're closed Sundays.

I brought some to a family vacation in Michigan and everyone said they were outstanding! Forget the Big Brand name brats and support the local mom and pop joints. My freezer was packed with them all summer. The sub sandwich was also one of the best, with fresh sliced meats and cheeses and veggies. It never made it out of the parking lot. All I wanted to do was try half of it but I couldn't stop eating it until there was no more. I also tried the stuffed pork chops that are huge and tasty.

At first from the outside it looked like it was closed, but I don't judge it on the looks of the outside of the building. I ordered the original cheesesteak hoagie, and it did not disappoint. It's not the healthiest sandwich in the world, but it's not supposed to be. The staff seemed like it was the same staff from Highwood many years ago. When I opened it up out of the package, that distinct smell hit and I was pleasantly surprised at how it tasted just like it did back in the day. The 6 inch was just perfect and I'll definitely be back for when I have this craving again.

Wow ..... woooowwww…read more This place is the bomb! The sandwiches are fire the yogurt is out of this world and the atmosphere is exactly how it should be.

DO NOT PASS on the yogurts ..... you will be sorry you did! She a thick gurl with perfect sweet flavors! 11 of 10! Keep up the good work! Awesome service, awesome food!

The owner makes his own salads (egg, chicken, etc.) and he's worked on developing good, tasty sandwiches. He also makes his own yogurt, which is super thick and flavorful - it's a real treat! The deli area is quite small, very clean, and simple. It's not setup to handle more than a few people at a time, so for a larger order, maybe consider ordering in advance for take-out.

Saturday I called and talked to Fabiola the women that works in the department that makes the fresh fruit juices and cut up fruit. She asked me when I could come in I asked her when she would have the juice ready . I told her I would like 3 bottles she said give me 25 minutes and that she would put 3 aside for me. I Went to the store and there in her section she had the 3 juices I reached into my pocket to give her a tip and she said no thank you I love my job here and I'm here to help. I also talked to the manager who could not of been more accommodating and was happy that I was taken care of. The feeling I got is the actually care about their customers being happy and I'm happy their employees are happy as well Thank you Favoila for the fantastic service god bless

I would give this place more of a 3.5, so I rounded up. It is connected to a gas station, so…read moreparking is limited. When you enter, it is a small place that has a few tables, the main counter/deli, and then a few slot machines. Depending on how many people are in line, it can take a while. There was only one lady working when I went, and there was one person ahead of me, and his order wasn't huge but took a while because of the variety of things they offer. I ordered an Italian beef quesadilla, 12 inch sub, and elotes. I like that you can choose any of their deli meats to put in your quesadilla, and they are not skimpy on the amount they put in, which is nice, especially for the price you pay for a quesadilla. The sub was my favorite. You can choose your deli meat and options to put on it. I've had the sub before because a place had gotten subs catered from there. That's why I went to see where this delicious sub came from. I should have stuck to the subs that was tasty. The elotes, on the other hand, were not. If I knew they didn't use roasted corn, I wouldn't even have ordered. The corn was soggy, and the toppings of mayo, butter, and chili powder didn't even have a great taste. The ingredients were there, but it tasted like nothing. Which is unfortunate. It's close to home, so I'd come back for another sub, but idk if I would get anything else. They do have horchata, but it's just the pre-packaged mix, so I didn't even bother to get one. They have the potential to be a good neighborhood spot

For food purposes, I said yes. She immediately changed her gloves and put the bread on a new paper. She was very careful with toasting the bread but then added mayo using the same knife from the counter container. I asked if she could use a new knife and grab the condiments from the back. She tossed the bread and made it again. The other staff member was really helping and guiding her on what to do. Not sure if she was new but we got through it. They also have certified GF bakery items. I opted for a banana spice muffin. Also, a lot of their chips are certified GF. As long as you watch and the guide the staff preparing your sandwich, it should be pretty safe.

Bad Pierogies! I…read morebought a pound of pierogies from the deli, and I felt sick after eating them. I don't think they keep them hot enough to have meat on the inside. And the outside was not fresh, it was turning a weird kind of tan and getting hard. In other words , they were old pierogies that had gone bad and should not have been sold. I'm going to go to Chicago and get some really good pierogies at Andy 's deli on Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago.
