Manny’s is an institution.... I haven’t been there in awhile, but it is outstanding and pricy. I would imagine the corned beef sandwich has to be up around $9 or so.... wrongo. I just checked the menu.
They closed around 3-4PM until maybe the last year or two. Now they serve dinner.
First time I have agreed with The0ne on anything. Darn good corned beef at Manny’s....Wonder if he chowed on one of the potato pancakes?

Manny’s is a great deli/restaurant. It’s one of those places where you slide your tray along as you pick your food. I was addicted to their brisket of beef sandwiches (not corned beef), just plain beef brisket. With a bit of horseradish on it, on an onion kaiser roll. May favorite. I worked at the Univ. of IL at Chicago (UIC), and my Department was only about 5 blocks away from Manny’s. I’ve retired and live in the burbs, however, I really want to get back to Manny’s one day for a lunch feast. The food there is fantastic.
$10.95 for just the corned beef sandwich. $5.00 for a sandwich is pushing it for the peasants.
