Falcon's Handcrafted Sandwiches — top-tier sandwiches in Ravenswood. Feels like it's been there since before the neighborhood changed. Freshness is the baseline here, and owner on site. "Tomato jam was slightly sweet, grilled onions were nice and savory, meat was juicy" — M F

“A hidden gem here in Ravenswood”
Went to falcons today for some quick food before work. I ordered a bacon cheese burger and a broccoli cheddar soup.

“This place has everything and everything is delicious.”
This place has everything and everything is delicious! I'm a particular fan of the pastas like the lemon chicken pasta.

“Hands down, this was a delicious find.”
Hands down, this was a delicious find. Definitely coming back. They have a gluten free bun for the burgers... which most are gf. Fries are in a shared fryer, though. I got the Spicy Cow - it was enormous and delicious! There aren't that many "hole in the wall" burger places with gf options. Highly recommend.

Don't sleep on this place just because it has outdated decor, the food is good and very reasonably priced. Relaxed, super casual atmosphere makes it a good spot for a local meetup.

“I had Falcon’s for the first time today via Door Dash.”
I had Falcon’s for the first time today via Door Dash. I had a taste for a deli type sandwich and they dod not disappoint. Most places these days skimp on the meat. Not here! Very generous with turkey and bacon and it comes with fries, good ones! The price was really good for what I got too. I’ll definitely go there and order out from them again.

I’ve been living in the area for three years and I always pass it by, I decided to go in two weeks ago and have been back 4 times since then. OMG!!! their buffalo chicken wrap is sooooo good I’ve ordered it that many times! My partner got a chicken cesar wrap and a chocolate milkshake. Both were delicious! Their homemade lemonade is a must as well. Check them out if you’re in the neighborhood

“Why are you still settling for burgers and sandwiches where all the toppings slide around more than...”
Why are you still settling for burgers and sandwiches where all the toppings slide around more than Diddy baby oiled up on a slip and slide? You’ll probably plead ignorant of wrong doing like the NYC mayor 🙃 which is why I have to give a shout out to Falcons Handcrafted Sandwiches!! Falcon’s sandwiches hold a lot of weight, kind of like your back during the winter time. I got the Salmon Sandwhich that had Salmon, mixed greens, 🍅 , 🥑, fried 🍳 and garlic aioli. It also came with perfectly seasoned, salted and crispy fries. It was a lot of sandwich for a more than fair price. If this was west loop or river north you would have to pay damn near double for probably quarter less of the ingredients and fries definitely wouldn’t be included. Ever since politicians wanted to call them freedom fries it seems like more and more restaurants have segregated the iconic duo but Falcon’s is definitely for the people! It is so rare to find a good sandwich place and even more rare for one that is open even when the sun is going down. Falcon’s is a phenomenal place with great ingredients and a diverse menu. Who else do you know can serve chicken Versuvio and paninis sandwiches and excel?

“Incredible place.”
Incredible place! The sandwiches are great, the fries are top notch, and the milkshakes are out-of-this-world good and really reasonably priced.

“Got the Magic Mushroom burger + Bacon.”
Got the Magic Mushroom burger + Bacon.. 🔥🔥 Burger was juicy and delicious. The grilled onions & mushrooms were grilled to perfection. The fries were crisp and tasty. Got the Mango Habenero wings, just the right mix of spicy and sweet! I want to come back to try the pasta and the onions rings..! 😍😍

“There is no other way to put it- this place is a hidden gem.”
There is no other way to put it- this place is a hidden gem. It has the signage of a sub shop and the interior of an old diner. The menu has a little of everything; from sanwiches, soups and burgers to fresh pasta. For what ever time you spend trying to figure out what the vibe is, all of that goes away when the food drops. As someone who’s spend 10+ years in the restaurant industry, I was really impressed with the overall quality of everything. It’s so fresh and well executed. 10/10 give these guys a shot. The fried chicken sandwich will knock your socks off!

“Believe the hype.”
Believe the hype. This place is an old-school throwback sandwich shop. The atmosphere, service, and food are amazing. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich on a baguette. Each sandwich comes with a side of homemade fries. Ingredients were fresh and the food came out piping hot.

“Underrated neighborhood gem !!”
Underrated neighborhood gem !!! We love a hole in the wall mom & pop shop with good eats. Ingredients are fresh and the chef knows their way around a kitchen. Cook on everything was excellent. Service was excellent.
