This place is an absolute gem. A French deli serving up some of the best soups and sandwiches in the area. All the things I have tried have been great, but the roast beef with blue cheese is to die for. Would highly recommend stopping by.
Al's Deli is definitely a go-to to add to your list when hungry! I am a bonafide foodie! ! They make a REALLY good fresh salmon with cheese, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches!!!!!! I get that every time I go! My mom gets the same thing and she LOVES their potato soup! I just turned my boyfriend onto them yesterday and he fell in love with the smoked duck sandwich! He said it was so fresh and the lentil soup was really, really good! I love looking at the photos on the wall of the owner's travels as well. He might have missed his calling and should have been a photographer as well as a deli owner! The customer service is always welcoming! I do prefer it when the owner is there for the quality customer service because he really does care about his business, but I know he has to take a break sometimes. ;-)
Quick and extremely satisfying sandwiches. They are filling and they do not skimp on the cheese. Bread? Perfect. Brie? Perfect. Salmon? Perfect. Oh..and the macaroons? I ate that slice of heaven so quickly that I could not even take a picture of it. This is my new favorite place to eat when visiting Evanston. Pictured half a BLT on baguette and half a salmon sandwich on sourdough.
Spectacular. Best ingredients assembled into the best sandwiches. Absurdly good. Odd hours though. Whenever I remember Al's, they're closed.
Great deli with an amazing sandwich selection. I enjoyed the smoked salmon and brie.
At first glance, it feels very old-school and nothing fancy but I was genuinely pleased by the kind staff and prompt service. I had their roast beef sandwich with the delicious blue cheese dressing along with a soup. They also had one of my favorite tea drinks so I figured this was the place to be at. Food overall was very good and comforting. Would love to come back to try their other French inspired selections
An Evanston institution. Old school deli with great food. I highly recommend the soup + sandwich combo!
