“Tourist, this is the most authentic Chicago Style Hot Pastrami Sandwich you will find anywhere. 24 hour joint, the only one really downtown south side.... They will take care of you....”
“I never leave reviews but I had to for this place. The food is great and for the price the serving size is amazing. They are very generous with the meats unlike other sub sandwich places. The staff is extremely nice especially the lady who works there. Best part ITS OPEN 24 HOURS. Downtown that’s hard to find. Puts any big chain restaurant to shame. I work very odd hours and this place has been a blessing.”
“Open 24/7 and always clutch. After karaoke at Brandos (just two blocks away), I swing by for a Reuben before heading home. Americana Submarine is my go-to for quick, solid food at a great price — especially late at night. Fast, tasty, and always there when you need it. Can’t beat that.”
“They're open 24/7. I found their corner store by accident while staying at a hotel nearby. Ordered the grilled chicken footlong sandwich. They use dark meat. It tasted a lot better than I thought it would. Cost $12. Excellent value, day or night, especially for a downtown location.”
“People are very friendly and respectful. The gyro sub is the best. The place is convenient for me because it's open 24/7”
“Great prices great service, highly recommend. Open 24 hours! Have all the tobacco thc smoke shop needs you could have”
“Delicious and quick food open 24/7. I work late nights in the downtown area and this is always my go-to spot for fast meals at a really good price thats always available 24/7”
