This a super sweet, local small business nestled in the middle of the North Side. The owners and staff are very welcoming - you feel like a regular while eating here!
My coworkers and I come to the sandwich shoppe every other week for lunch. The service is always quick and the food is usually delicious.
This particular visit was on a Friday afternoon. The restaurant was PACKED, so bear that in mind if you plan on going on a week day.
Their Friday soup special is a clam chowder and I can honestly say it was the best I've ever had. The cup was overflowing when my waitress brought it to the table - their portions are always huge here. I ordered their Three Rivers Rueben as my main dis and I was not that impressed. I fancy myself a Rueben connoisseur and this one just seemed greasy and not flavorful. The ratio of corn beef and turkey breast was off, as well - too much turkey and not enough corn beef. Definitely not their best sandwich. I'd go for the Triple Decker Club or Fish Sandwich (those never disappoint).
Overall, I love the charm of the sandwich shoppe and recommend it for a quick, filling lunch.
