About Al's #1 Italian Beef

Al's #1 Italian Beef is a popular spot for a savory Italian beef sandwich. The beef is known for its juiciness and well-seasoned flavor. One can order it "wet" or "dry" with the option of adding hot giardiniera or peppers. The bread holds up well to the generous amount of meat. Both first-timers and returning customers appreciate the hot peppers, which add a spicy kick to the sandwich. While the restaurant can get crowded, it offers both indoor and outdoor seating, including a small patio area, making it a good choice for quick bites or small groups. The service is friendly, and despite some wait times, many find the Italian chopped beef sandwich worth it, especially when paired with sweet peppers to cut through the richness. The restaurant is also known for Chicago hot dogs, and its small size adds to its charm, often providing the best food in a cozy setting.
