What's good #GustonNation -- we now have a SEQUEL to this ICONIC Foods Film 👉🏼 ua-cam.com/video/Wk9vcxLwzaw/v-deo.html
As a born & raised Chicagoan for over 70 years, I would like to offer kudos on your review of iconic Chicago food places. I've eaten all the foods mentioned and have my own favorites, but you did a wonderful job of identifying many of the foods Chicagoans really enjoy. Your passion for the windy city comes through on your videos, keep up the great job!
Accurate
As a native Chicagoan, I stumbled upon your videos recently. I am so impressed with your knowledge of the city. You’re a good resource.
I wanted to say thank you for all your videos. I'm a Chicagoan, but I'm embarrassed to say I don't know much when it comes to eating out. I don't make much money so I cook more at home. I'm definitely trying out these places in the future! Thanks again!
There’re a ton of cheap eats in Chicago that are fantastic!
Cooking is the best!
@@jeannydaniel2022I agree 👍
So glad you called out Tavern style as the "Daily Driver Pizza" of Chicagoans. As a style, it has not gotten the love it deserves. Side note: if you are getting a deep dish/stuffed pizza, combine some genres. Top it with Italian beef and Hot Peppers. It's basically a beef inside of a deep dish. Underrated approach.
YES - thank you so much for this, and especially for using Vito & Nick's as your example.
I love that you guys mentioned that we chicagoans eat tavern style more often. Every time I go somewhere, people say that deep dish is too think etc. And praise NYC pizza, but I’m like honestly we don’t eat that too often. The tavern thin crust is our favorite. Deep dish is just a comercialized staple to be different and rival NYC.
As a lifelong Chicagoan. This list is absolutely on point. It's a prefect run down of all the places we love.
I said the same thing
Hey Luis!!! Just left Chicago yesterday and followed some of your food tips and went to Budlongs and Burger Bar. I absolutely love your city, cant wait to return. Be safe and keep up the amazing work brother 💪❤️
Glad to hear! Appreciate the love 😎💯
I tried a Chicago style hot dog on my first day in Chicago, and I knew right then that I would never leave.
Best way to eat Italian beef: order it wet with a side salad instead of fries. Eat it directly over the salad. Whatever falls or drips into the salad will make it taste better.
To anyone not from Chicago: he's right about the pizza. I only eat deep dish one to three times a year, mostly when entertaining people from out of town. I've never heard it called tavern pizza, but that is what most of us eat most of the time. It generally has extra sauce, so the cheese slides right off, but you get extra tomato flavor that way, so it's worth it.
As a native of the windy city, You can never go wrong with Chicago Mexican food and the Italian beef. Would definitely love to see a pt. 2!
Hey Luis, I really appreciate your videos. My wife and I just took a long weekend to Chicago (four nights) and I probably watched a dozen of your videos beforehand and definitely got some help. From using public transportation easier to enjoying some local restaurants, you helped us get a lot more out of our vacation. We stayed in an Air B&B in Little Italy and we went to Conte di Sovia, Jim’s Original, Ann Sather, Little Branch Cafe, and Mr. Beef - all of which we would not have known about if not for your videos. Thanks for the solid information and recommendations!
Hi Luis, you DEFINITELY hit the top 10 foods!!!!! You can't beat Chicago foods!
We need a part II
Great Chicago food tribute video! 👍🏽
Thanks Gina!
I’ll give Chicago the hot dog 🌭 crown 👑
And the Pizza War continues……
Likewise
Great video as always. Looking forward to trying those places on my next visit.
Thank you so much 😁
You nailed it, especially with Vito and Nick's. That is the kind of tavern style pie that Chicagoans prefer.
Talk about a mouth watering video!!!! Whoa!!! Part 2 is a must!!! Great job!!!
Part 2 Please! Love the videos. Keep up the good work bro
Just came back from Chicago last week. Thank you for your helpful videos! Yes, please do a part 2 and 3 if need be lol 😂
I loved your video!! Very informational!! Thank you!!
Props to you guys for visiting all those spots in the same day. Keep it up with the great content!
I'm currently living in NYC and looking to transition to Chicago next year. Glad I found your channel! I dig it! 🤘🏾
You’re gonna love it
Good video jo hit all the spots and joints ! 10/10 everyone should visit !
You defiantly forgot the Ricobene’s famous Breaded steak sandwich ! Since 1946 . Garrets could be classified as a snack not a event like the others .great video
All the food looks absolutely amazing I’ll definitely have to try your little tour it sounds iconic
Absolutely superb Louis, loved it 🙏
Awesome video. I grew up in Chicago on the south side and you hit the best. Harold chicken is my favorite. I live I Wisconsin now. I drive two hours to get it. Jim’s original is a classic. I have to have both Jim’s and Harolds whenever I am in the chi. Thank you bro.
Thanks bro..Harold’s is so 🔥
Taking notes for my next visit!
📝📝📝
Bro all your post have inspired my trip to chicago ! I’m going in February and everyone that has visited my work from Chicago has said I’m crazy but I LOVE to the cold and your videos have sparked my love for chicago !
Actually we’ve barely gotten in any snow this winter. Don’t believe all the hype about the cold unless you’re moving here from Africa. It’s no biggie.
You killed it with this list, all gem spots in the city. No disrespect to anyone but thanks for doing Bryons and not Portillos like so many other videos. Subscribed!
Thanks Andrew! We love hot dog stands like Byron's - they're super friendly too!
I will try all of them :) Thanks for sharing
Great piece. Would love to see part 2. Mother-in-law, Rainbow cone, Italian lemonade, shrimp dejhonge, saganaki, etc. BTW, everyone I know believes that the meat topping of choice on a pizza is always sausage, not pepperoni.
Totally with you on the sausage call.
OMG you got it ALL exactly right, even ending with Tavern Style Pizza! Love you guys!
I went to school on the South Side and I surely do miss the great food. Thanks Luis! You have been subbed.
With videos like these we aim to preserve the culture of great Chicago food so we can enjoy for years to come!
A Chicago style hotdog is by far one of my favorites as a Chicagoan it is so deliciously delicious!
Absolutely
Finally someone did Chicago food justice
💯
These foods all look bangers!! it's in my bucket list for sure.
Very nice video and presentation by the hosts , i know now what to tastes if i get te oppurtunity to visit chicago .Part 2 please guys 👍🏾
Man, finally a list that keeps it real!
What a true voice of the city. While we all have our favorites, all the choices were 100% respectable. Videos like this just reinforce my pride in our great city.
🔥🔥🔥 We definitely need a part 2
Yes! Part 2!!!
Part 2 please! Great video 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great choices!
really enjoy your enery bro, keep it up
Luis, great job. As a life long Chicagoan good choices. Would like to see a part 2.
I've lived in Chicago my whole life and agree with this. Tavern style pizza is the best. I've had all of these foods except the cinnamon rolls, I will have to try those. I just had a bag of Garrets popcorn and couple of days ago. You forgot Polish Pierogies, Elis Cheesecake and Portillos. Gyros are also a Chicago staple.
I am not a big city girl. My brother spent time in Chicago and loved it. My son lives in a suburb of Chicago. We can't wait to try the food in Chicago soon.
Heading to Chicago for the first time, really enjoyed your video. My mouth is watering.
Great video. You can add breaded steak sandwiches in part 2! Ricobenes on the south side or Luke's up on the NW side.
We need part two! Love Chicago…
I really appreciate this video!
Thank you!
As a Chicagoan I found this video to be wholesome and nostalgic. Brought back so many warm and beautiful memories from younger me ❤ kudos
You hit all my favorite Chicago spots 🔥
Haha nice 👍✅
Mine as well !!
Great video!
What’s good #GustoGang, what are your favorite local spots to grab these ICONIC foods? Also, let us know if you want to see a Part II
I'll gladly take a part 2!
Ummmm let’s not forget about Ricobene’s Breaded Steak Sandwiches!!!!
Hey Luis is there any place near downtown that has that tavern style pizza?
Part 2, please!
Luis, love the channel! What about Chicago Burgers? Bad Apple, Small Cheval, Bear & Belly, Mini Mott, etc. Also, an all thin crust/tavern style video? Spacca Napoli, Michael's, Munno's, Coalifre, Piece, etc. Keep up the good work!
Just subscribed! Jimmy K recommended your videos to me and they are 🔥!
Eyyyyy… thank you!
I just subscribed. I live here in Chicago and I really appreciate and like your video. I was wondering where a good place to get a hiberito. Thank you 🙏
There is no QUESTION Chicago has some massive food scene. Great video!!
Amazing video man! Chicagoan here and been to all of these spots most of them childhood staples
You included Vito and Nick's so you're alright in my book.
Slow service, but that's ok gives me more time to demolish a pizza solo.
Definitely need to hit Gene and Jude’s for a hot dog next time you are in town. Technically not Chicago, but a classic Chicago dog that doesn’t disappoint. Good choices. Great video. Made me hungry.
Absolutely....i am in Melrose Park Illinois and i go to gene and judes ....in river grove Illinois😉😉😉
Hey Luis thanks for a list of essentials.
You're welcome -- thanks for watching!
Yes, please do a part 2!
He’s not wrong on any of the spots! Great Video 👍
Thanks Marcos!
Awesome food!
Luis you are at the top of the ratings now!
Born and raised in CHICAGO AND WHEN I SAY HAROLD'S CHICKEN WITH MILD SAUCE WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE HANDS DOWN,I CAN EAT IT 7DAYS A WEEK
We definitely need a part 2. I try to tell folks. We indulge Deep Dish occasionally & much prefer thin-crust Tavern style.
I'm recommending Leon's B-BQ, Top Notch for burgers. Then slide over to Rainbow for ice cream. White Palace for Brunch. Chinatown for Chinese & Roeser's for baked goods.
Good stuff bro👍🏿
Not Leons, Lem's on 75th. It's older as is I. One of the old smokehouse pit type bldgs
Alice's for Rib tips.
@@thomasbrown3356 You might wanna look at the reviews? Not that good...🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Fat Johnnies
Greetings from Phoenix Arizona. Second home to all Chicagoans. Thank you for the cultural education of all things Chi-Town. I've never been to Illinois would love to visit there someday
A tear formed in my eyes. I lived across the street from that Byron's at the 2:00 mark, Ann Sather's on Belmont - Ummmmm!
Very good list! Definitely right about tavern style pizza.
Thanks Shannon!
You need to include the porkchop sandwich from Jim's Original as well! It's so unique to eat a porkchop with the bone between two buns.
You need to go to Ricobenes for the breaded steak sandwich
He needs to go there. Hopefully he does a second part because that sandwich is unreal(order it on garlic bread hot giardiniera some roasted peppers and the cheese that's good eating Chicago style
Headed to Chicago in July 2023 for the first time!!! Thanks for the video
I live in Chicago now! I want to try that beef sammich and those tacos.
Thank goodness I’m going to Chicago this year cause the food looks delicious 🤤
The jibarito is such a good sandwich. I personally like it the best with lechón (roast pork). But it’s great with any type of meat.
Agree with my fellow Chicagoans, you nailed it.
💯
Headed to Chicago in October for the aquashella event! Super excited to visit for my first time! Subbed to you so I can get more spots to hit up for food and entertainment/activities
I stay on the south side…this is legit and on point! 👍🏾
Thank you for repping Tavern Style / Thin Crust. I love deep dish (though prefer Giordano's); but square cut thin crust is what I try to tell folks is "real" Chicago style -- it doesn't help that I live in NY and everyone wants to reference John Stewart. No hate to NY slice either, but Tavern Style has no competition.
Part 2!!!
Or maybe top coffee, or you can also highlight unique Chicago business/brands.
Because I am looking to travel to Chicago pretty soon and Id like to support local unique stores but idk where to go.
Luis, me gusto would video! Part 2 let’s go!!!
We got Phil's pizza, ricobenes, Connie's pizza, Kathy D's , happiness Chinese food, just in Bridgeport alone. You forgot all those.
Chicago deserves the crown for many of their different foods!💖👏👍🥂🍾🍽👑
I will follow every restaurants in this video. Part 2 pleeeease.
Such a bomb video!! Cannot wait to visit there someday! Have you done a video for tourists like me who want to experience all things “Old Chicago,” like iconic mafia/mob places, anything from the Sinatra era, etc?
@@charlesandrews2360 awesome info, thanks so much!
I’m from the south side of chicago. Came here to hate but u actually did a go job bro. I’m mad you ain’t talk about pizza puffs but u good lol
Appreciate it bro...keep it locked for part 2
Another great video, Luis. It's a snack but how about your favorite Italian ice?
Interesting, will try all of them if I visit Chicago one day 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Sweet! Tell em Luis Gusto sent you!
Yo yo! Chicago has the best Gyro!
I remember when I was 12-17 we use to hit up LA Pasadita anytime we were by Humboldt or Wicker Park or anytime we went to our doctor, really happy you went there
Great video
Those buffalo and barbeque wings at Lou Malnati's are awesome too. I have yet to check Harold's Chicken off my list after several trips to Chicago.
If you are from Chicago and it's really about Chicken, it's Harold's or Uncle Remus, these places are institutions
As an Italian, chicken vesuvio was an iconic dish that never caught on as much as it should have. It's Awesome crispy chicken and potatoes covered in a wonderful garlic wine sauce.
My Favorite!
I'll be in Chicago next week, looking forward to some new places to check out. Love Garrett's!! Hit up Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder for part 2. Come do a Detroit version of places to eat! 🌮🍕🌭🍱🍣🥠🦀
Rico benes steak sandwich and wings
I am originally from Pilsen and the best pizza I ever had was from a restaurant that used to be on 18th and Ashland called DV's pizza! It was amazing!
Hey Luis my favorite places to go for Deep Dish pizza are Lou Malnati's and Gino's East. However, I prefer Tavern style pizza over Deep Dish pizza.
Same, Tavern Style is the best!
Your videos are great! i would love to drive out get some great food!
