"Most famous for its breaded steak sandwich — an experience that feels somewhat spiritual for both tourists and locals alike — Ricobene’s is a South Side institution three generations deep. This family has watched their small beef stand counter turn into a Chicago pilgrimage site, dripping in a marinara sauce recipe they keep locked in a vault. Aside from the breaded steak, don’t sleep on the other pounded meats. (I enjoy the Buffalo or Vesuvio chicken)." - Alex Jewell
