I was really looking forward to getting a beef combo from Al's, but I was very disappointed with the quality and price.I had the jumbo beef combo.It had very little beef.The sausage was split in half and spread across the small beef sandwich.It was also super greasy, and there's no bathroom to wash your hands.The beef combo cost me about $21.00 plus tax, with no peppers, fries, or any sides.They labeled themselves Al's #1, but I respectably disagree.There's plenty of better and cheaper beef places in the Chicagoland area.Parking: Tight limited free parking lot.

Ordered a jumbo beef, spent almost $30 and didn’t receive the correct size, old lady was dismissive and rude. Seems like I’m not the only one having these issues! If you want s as beef try another place! I usually don’t review that much but buyer beware! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! Trust me!!!!!

I can't comment on the food because I bought the food for someone else. The prices though ?! For a 5" sandwich with fries (which is there smallest sandwich was a whopping $20! Make it make sense!

Save your money and don’t come to this place, the attention is so bad and the food so disappointing, just don’t come to this place and try the burger in the next corner

It's not how it use to be. They charge for bell peppers which should go on the sandwich for free. The sandwich isn't work the $20 I paid for it. They are not friendly.

Best Italian Beef in Chicago. Hands down. None of that dry bread Italian Beef, but wet, savory, food with taste that sticks with you. Dunk it for best results.

I was told this place was good for the Italian Beef. I am not complaining about food but the old lady cashier is rude and needs customer Service experience. Thus is my first time here and will not return

Not the best Italian beef in Chicago, but top 3. Established 1930's. It's relaxed quick & convenient.
