When you crave an Italian beef from Al’s on Taylor, no other will do. That’s because this Italian beef is unlike any other Al’s location in the city. Here, top sirloin is roasted in house and sliced extra thin before taking a bath in the intensely beefy gravy. But what really sets this sandwich apart is the signature giardiniera, made with a secret recipe. It’s extra fragrant from what tastes like a combination of allspice, cinnamon, and fennel. $8.79. 1079 W. Taylor St., Little Italy
