Had a fantastic corned beef sandwich and tried everything at the pickle bar - great stuff. Also brought home a slice of cake that was a big hit at home!

Not impressed... Corned beef on rye with mustard... And fries The rye bread was shaped like rye, but soft and tasteless like white bread... To say I got a spritz of mustard would be generous... The fries tasted and looked like they'd been sitting for an hour dry and cold... The saving grace was the actual corned beef was phenomenal... But, not worth driving 8 miles to get...

One of my favorite breakfast spots in the suburbs. Super family friendly and the service is great. They even accommodated a party of 8 for us! Gluten free bagels and bread available, just wish they had GF pancakes

Hymies played a significant role in shaping my life, as it was where I formed a lifelong friendship with my co-worker Paul, he is family to me. It was one of my earliest jobs back in the 1980s, and during my teenage years, I would frequently switch between their different city deli locations. Whenever I needed extra money, I would return to work at Hymies and was always welcomed with open arms. The owner, Sam Barson, and the deli manager, Ivan, taught me valuable work ethic skills that have stayed with me throughout the years. Eventually, Louis, Sam's son, took over the operation and has successfully elevated the establishment to new heights while maintaining the same classic deli style with added menu items.
On a recent visit to Hymies, I was pleasantly surprised to find options for vegans, such as the açai bowl, salads, impossible burger, and other dishes that could be customized to be vegan-friendly. Despite the lack of a dedicated vegan section, the staff were incredibly accommodating and made sure I had a satisfying meal. The generous portions and fresh ingredients of the bagel I ordered, along with various toppings, made for a delightful vegan treat. I believe that adding a small vegan section to the menu, with ingredients like tofu, tempeh, edamame, and seitan, would attract more patrons seeking plant-based options.
Although vegan dishes may not be explicitly listed on the menu, I appreciate the restaurant's willingness to accommodate alternative dietary preferences. Regardless, the nostalgic atmosphere of Hymies, coupled with their impeccable service and delicious sandwiches, make it a must-visit for anyone in search of a classic deli experience. I extend my gratitude to Louis for his outstanding management and for upholding this suburban legend with pride.

Unfortunately updating my review as I think the quality and service have gone down.
Old review: Best pastrami sandwich I’ve ever had (and I’ve been to NYC delis). I got the hot pastrami Reuben and the pastrami was thinly sliced, perfectly seasoned with the right proportion of cheese, sauerkraut, and I asked for light Russian dressing. Can’t wait to try the other things on the menu like the challah French toast!

My mom, and two of my girlfriends and I meet here for lunch once a month. We just love Hymies! Their food is always plentiful, delicious, and fresh! And that pickle bar!! I’ve tried several dishes and I’m never disappointed. The waitresses are friendly and happy to serve.

The only person that I had serving me that night was a girl Shannon, and she was really good at what she does made my decisions easy. I had a delightful time. The rest of the staff was also very well. Representative
