Eleven City Diner

Incredible Jewish deli taking cues from the classics in New York and Newark with expansive traditional menu of deli favorites made with care and high quality. Matzoh ball soup, pastrami sandwiches, egg creams - all the usual suspects. No pickled tomatoes but you can’t have everything! Portions are huge and service is expert and quick. The owner helps seat hungry waiting folks quicky with personality and good humor. Candy everywhere especially for the kids. A full bar for the older kids at heart. Wonderful place anyone would feel welcome in. Please come hungry!

Love the atmosphere in this place. The moment I walked in, I felt like I was in a deli type restaurant in New York. It took me back in time! It was busy, but I didn't mind as I looked at the candy shop and reminisced about the old days going to the corner store with all the classic sweets on display. We got seats at the bar and loved it! I had the Mexican scramble, and it was not as tasty as I had hoped, but I was so much more focused on the experience that I still enjoyed it. Even got a shake to go!

From UK, I'm staying in Chicago this week and this was my favourite place to eat lunch by a large margin. Great selection of delicious food, home made root beer, good service and atmosphere. Probably the best bloody Mary I've had. Classic American diner, but way better than others I've been to.
