Today I stopped by Fontano’s Subs, a legendary Chicago sandwich shop known for its Italian subs and old-school deli style sandwiches. I tried their 12″ Turkey Sub fully dressed and their 12″ Veggie Sub fully dressed, packed with fresh toppings and classic deli flavor.
Because I ordered a 12″ sub that day, they also threw in their potato salad, so I had to give that a try too.
Fontano’s has been a staple in Chicago for decades, and locals swear by their subs. The question is — does it still live up to the hype?
In this review I break down:
• Bread quality
• Meat and topping balance
• Flavor and freshness
• Portion size
• Value for the price
If you’re looking for the best sandwiches in Chicago, Fontano’s is a name that always comes up — but is it worth the stop?
Watch to see if this Chicago deli classic delivers.
