About Chicago Bagel & Bialy II

Chicago Bagel & Bialy is a popular spot for delicious Jewish deli-style meals. Their lean corned beef on rye with potato salad and a pickle is a must-try. Their bagels, chive cream cheese, and lox are also fantastic. The Ruben and Monday special chicken breast sandwich are highly rated deli sandwiches cooked to perfection. They also offer an amazing fish tray, which is plentiful and beyond delicious. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Visitors often enjoy more than ample portions and the option to ask for a combo to enjoy both soup and sandwiches. The dining space is modest with just a few tables in the middle of a deli, so those seeking ambiance might find it lacking. Some dishes, like the potato pancakes, have been noted as dry and not up to expectations, but others like the belly lox sandwich and potato salad are highly praised. The homemade cream cheese options are outstanding, and the food quality remains consistently good. The restaurant is a great choice for a satisfying meal, especially for those craving authentic Jewish deli classics.

Real Bagels. Good "deli" selection.
Update:
I went a second time to try more things. I wouldn't recommend the potato pancakes. I don't know if it was an off day but the potatoes were dry, like they were left out for too long and then fried.
But the belly lox sandwich was amazing! On the salty side but that's how we like it. It came with a side of potato salad which was also amazing.

Previous review:
The food was good but not great. The bagel and cream cheese were good and standard but the pastrami...read full review
Felt the quality of the bagel sandwich could be better considering the price. Their cream cheeses and fish salads looked really good though.
