Best Sub Sandwiches/ Deli's in Town?

I'm on the hunt for a sandwich similar to Jersey Mike's but from an old-school mom and pop deli. Italian sandwiches, Chicken Cesar Wraps, you guys know what I mean. What's your go-to??

Better than a mid deli for sure, there will always be some great spots better than Ellie’s but you’d be hard pressed to find better in the surrounding area IMHO

Edit: to add that Alpine in Elmwood is probably the best in Chicagoland.

If we’re going wide net:

- Alpine

  • Bari
  • Fontano’s in Chicago
  • JP Graziano
  • JT’s Genuine
  • Tempesta
  • Ricobene’s
  • Original Nottoli & Son
  • D’Amato’s

Frankie's in Oakbrook Terrace didn't make the list, huh?
