Location: Airline at 20th Street/Cavalcade. Northeast Houston/Heights.
Type of Food: Chicago classics. Deepdish pizza, hotdogs, burgers, and Italian beef sandwiches.
Summary: Today, I decided to try out Chicago Italian Beef on Airline. I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for years. I am an Italian Beef snob. I know how to make it in addition to know I understand what it is supposed to taste like. The Italian Beef at this location tastes like a glorified French dip sandwich without flavor. It didn't have the right seasonings or correct type of peppers. Additionally there was not enough juice.
Final Thoughts: I think that I will try to wait for the real food in Chicago or try making it myself. My version may not taste exactly like the real thing, but it tastes a heck of a lot more like the real thing than Chicago Italian Beef's version. Maybe I will go back and try their deep dish. Maybe, but I fear it may be like Star Pizza's version which is NOT CHICAGO DEEP DISH!!!
