The Best Italian Subs In Chicago, Ranked

"Some mild jaw unhinging might be necessary for a bite of the big boy Italian Special at Fontano’s in Little Italy. And there will definitely be some spillage. But a mild, balanced combination of prosciuttini, capocollo, and provolone swaddled in airy bread is worth any potential oil stains. They’re generous with the mayo here, but it’s offset nicely with the lightly-dressed lettuce and tomato and spice from the addition of giardiniera. You might start out looking like the guy in “The Scream,” but you’ll end your lunch with a Mona Lisa smile. " - adrian kane, nick allen, john ringor, veda kilaru
