Our Top Pick
Steingold's Deli of Chicago
Bagel-and-bread-driven deli sandwiches with serious bakery execution.
Notable Picks
8.4
A Jewish-inspired counter deli built around bagels, lox, and hearty breakfast-and-lunch sandwiches with a fast, get-in-get-out rhythm. It’s at its best when you order decisively in the bagel-and-smoked-fish lane and let the classics do the talking.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bagels, Egg on A Roll, Sufganiyot
What makes it special: Bagel-and-bread-driven deli sandwiches with serious bakery execution.
8.4
A Southport Corridor neighborhood bar-restaurant where the fries are treated like a real menu item, not a filler side—crisp, hand-cut, and built for dipping. The best move is to start with the Truffled Hard Cut Fries, then keep the rest of the order in the burger-and-shares lane so the fry texture stays the headline.
Must-Try Dishes:
Truffled Hard Cut Fries, Hand Cut Fries, Pesto Cream Mussels
What makes it special: Truffled hard-cut fries with truffle aioli that read as a signature, not a side.
A neighborhood deli-and-wine shop where cold-cut subs and sandwich builds are the main event, backed by a strong grab-and-go pantry for picnics and lake days. The move is a classic Italian-style sub or a chicken sandwich with a little heat, then add one drink and go.
Must-Try Dishes:
Classic Italian sub, Chipotle chicken sandwich, Reuben
What makes it special: A deli-sandwich counter paired with a serious wine-and-snack shop.

Cheap Eats Budget Brilliance
A low-key building-market deli that quietly delivers fresh-made sandwiches when you need a simple lunch that travels well. It’s at its best when you choose one protein (or falafel) and treat it like a straightforward sandwich stop, not a browse-everything destination.
Must-Try Dishes:
Falafel sandwich, Chicken sandwich, Dolmas
What makes it special: A tucked-away market deli doing fresh sandwiches inside a lakefront building.
