I love a great Slyman's corned beef sandwich as I have been going to the downtown location for years. When I heard another one was opening up I knew I had to check it out.
First the positives. This location is pretty big with a sports bar feeling. Lots of TVs near the bar so you can watch the games or news. Happy hour drink specials. More things to choose from on the menu including appetizers and non sandwich type items like salads, pierogi and fish. There is something on the menu for everyone's tastes.
What I didn't like. The tables are way too close! Every time a customer or server would walk by our chairs would get bumped and our jackets would nearly get knocked on the floor. This place is big so no need to cram the tables in. One other concern. My corned beef sandwich has not been consistent from order to order. First visit it was pretty good. Another time I got a big chunk of unchew-able fat in the middle of my sandwich.
There are somethings that can be improved. Not quite like the quality of the St. Clair location however I'm appreciative that we can get legendary Slyman's in the suburbs. I want to support a good thing so I will be back.
