Over the weekend, I stopped by North Buena Deli to cross it off my list of must-try Chicago delis—and it did not disappoint. The menu features a wide variety of classic and specialty deli sandwiches, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
I went with The Sicilian, a combo loaded with prosciutto, Genoa salami, capocollo, and provolone cheese. It’s finished with roasted red peppers, crisp lettuce, fresh tomatoes, red onions, and a generous drizzle of their housemade Italian dressing. Every bite was packed with bold, savory flavor—the meats were perfectly balanced, and that dressing added just the right amount of tang.
A classic Italian deli in Chicago is always a win, and North Buena hits all the right notes.
