What people say about Manny's Cafeteria & Delicatessen
As much as Manny’s is known for its food, it’s even more famous for the process in which the food is prepared – grab your tray and proceed to the cafeteria line to watch as the thick corned beef, pastrami, brisket and deli sandwiches are created right before your eyes. Recent customers are fond of the generous serving size, friendly employees, classic atmosphere, and the fact that they are made to feel welcome, rather than deciphering the menu on their own. The desserts and side dishes are not left out either. While some customers find the prices high for counter service or prefer a different kind of slicing, the overall opinion is that this place is a unique Chicago tradition rather than an average deli.
About Manny's Cafeteria & Delicatessen
Manny’s is a typical Chicago Jewish delicatessen and a cafeteria located at 1141 S. Jefferson Street, featuring hot corned beef, pastrami, brisket, turkey, soups, sides, and large sandwiches. The format of the cafeteria makes your visit more casual, and first-time visitors will be able to see the selection of dishes to choose from.
The menu is far broader than only sandwiches; you can order meatloaf, short ribs, roast chicken, fish, spaghetti, chilli, and daily hot entrée, so it will be possible to enjoy a hearty lunch without choosing any deli meat.
This place is great for tourists who want to find some corned beef in Chicago or just have a typical deli lunch in Chicago. This cafeteria is particularly convenient for big groups of people since everyone can find something on the menu—there are hot plates, sandwiches, soups, sides, and desserts.
The restaurant is a walk-in cafeteria rather than a reservation-only dining hall; therefore, the best approach is just coming with enough time.
