Haha--looking at Al's Web page, it should probably be #15 or something, since they have so many in Illinois already.  They're also building one in Las Vegas.  (Sigh...everybody is...)   Good question...

Al's is good, Mar. Hope you like it. Beats Portillo's by a mile.

If you want to try their guardiniera, get it on the side.I always ask for extra au jus, as well.

This "Italian Beef Chicago-thing":  I've seen it featured by Richman, Fieri, "Food Wars", and even Bourdain; my mouth waters each time.  I'm sure it will be coming to the Metroplex soon.  Everything...

I find Portillo's the worst of all. Just my opinion!

Re:Al's #1 Italian Beef coming to San Jose, CA (carolina bob)

Can't agree with you about Portillo's, Ann. Their Italian beef is one of my favorites, topped only by Al's and Mr. Beef. Surprisingly, there's some really great beefs to be found outside of the...

I guess I kind of mis stated - compared to Al's and Mr. Beef, I find Portillo's average at best. Bob ad I were disappointed the last couple of times. And yes, Bob, I too had the Italian beef sandwich...

No comments on Johnnie's?  I went to the one in Elmwood Park this past Spring and loved it.  (Had it dipped with sweet peppers.)

Gotta line up with the Portillo's fans on this one. Al's beef is good, but I don't like their hot giardiniera. There's no hot peppers in it -- it's just a bunch of celery with some crushed red.

Oh, I agree, Jim. Portillos giardiniera is top notch. My opinion is  their  was beef rubbery. Perhaps a location situation? Possibly the beef was kept too long?( In my neck of the woods, food should...

In the Naperville area it was always Portillo's vs Buona Beef. My wife's workplace preferred Buona....I liked them both, but we usually went to the Fox River mall area Portillo's. Never had a bad...

Al's doesn't have a consistent record handling their franchisees. Hopefully, the SD location will get it right. I assume SD has been chosen because there have always been a fair amount of Chicago...
