Johnnie's Beef

"We followed Mark Wien’s review. We drove out of city for half an hour to get Johnnie Beef Sandwiches. very good tasty beef. We tried both wet and dry sandwiches. Good lime Italian ice you cannot missed."

"Lightning fast service and the food was so good! The sausage was very peppery and the beef was so good. I hear that you should order it extra juicy. The Italian ice was one of the best I’ve ever had. A small one would do. I got the spicy peppers with my sandwich but looking back, I think I should’ve gotten the sweet peppers. Fries are good too. They give you ketchup in a cone of wax paper :) their milkshake is decently good and their drinks seemed to be a handcrafted soda that I haven’t seen before. Overall very good experience at this establishment. Cash only, no bathroom on site. There is a gas station down the street, and also a fresh thyme across the street if you want to play frogger."

"There is always long lines when ordering. But not to worry coz service is fast. When it come to food, they serve chicago style italian beef and sausage, and chicago style hotdogs with italian ice. Their menu is focused on these items. No facy menu’s on the list. The food is very nice to try. Ive been here several times and they never disappoint. This plave has been here quiet some time already. There customer keep coming back like me. So their food is a must try here in chicago. Though this place is in elmwood park. Still the food is chicago still. Love it."

"Been waiting a few years to finally get to this place. Glad I skipped the chains for once and got me a real BEEF. We ordered a sweet beef half dipped and a hot dog with fries. Best beef and fries I’ve had in the city so far. Can’t wait to back and try the sausage as it also looked incredible. Cash only however everything on the menu is under 7 bucks. Johnnies….they got the beef!!!"
