| - I have been going to Sonio's off and on for many years, mostly for the chicken, which I think is great. However, the other day I stopped in and looked at the menu. They had Chicago Italian Beef sandwiches on the menu. I asked the waitress how it was, and she said it was her favorite, and was a big seller in the restaurant. So I decided to try it. I have tried Italian beef at Windy's Beefs and dogs, the Chicago Hot Dog place on Rancho, and south Eastern, all of which have been acceptable if not great. The Sonio's beef sandwich came, and after the first bit, I almost swooned. The best beef sandwich I have found outside of Chicago, where I was born and raised. It was wonderful, just spicy enough, sweet peppers sliced thinly, bread wet (altho I needed at little more au jus). My only complaint, if there is one, is that the fries were just not crisp enough. Tasted good, and I ate a lot of them, but I would have preferred them a little crisper. However, I can't wait to go back for another one!
