I work next to Bebes and have been here maybe 5-6 times. I always get the Reuben sandwich. For $12.50 you get the sandwich, 1/4 of a pickle, and coleslaw served in a 3.25oz or maybe a 4 oz solo souffle cup. I dont mind the tiny pickle or the tiny coleslaw but the amount of meat on this sandwich is criminal by New York OR Chicago standards. Id be surprised if it was more than 1/4 of a pound. If you ask for extra meat they double the meat bringing the sandwich to an acceptable size but thats gonna cost you an extra $6.00. With tax, youre looking at a $20 Reuben sandwich. Over at Jasons Deli the Reuben comes with a pile of french fries, two pickle slices and the sandwich has 1/2 a pound of corned beef for $9.99. The service from the gentlemen (I assume gentleman since Ive never seen a woman behind the counter) isnt anything to write home about . They are glum and sullen. No smiles.. no warmth. On the good side? The sandwich actually tastes good. The Russian dressing is good. They dont over-toast the rye bread. The service is fast. Always under 8 minutes for me from the moment I order to the moment I receive the sandwich. They have potential here but you cant go weak on the meat at $12.50+ tax. This is a staple of any great Jewish deli and its #2 on their menu. Ill have to swing by the shop again in the next few weeks. See if things improve so I can come right back here and bump these guys up to a 4 or 5 star rating.

Today I had soup for lunch so i had calories left over for something REALLY good so I decided to go to the French Market downtown, on Clinton street. (@ the Metra Station) I walked around twice before deciding on Bebes. Liver haters go away, because Im sure you wont want to know this BUT Bebes has the best Chopped Liver. The best things about it is the mild liver flavor and the chopped part, its not mashed, or pureed its chopped. You can see the small pieces of onions in it and chopped boiled egg I believe. This chopped liver dances on my tongue, I absolutely loved it. I also wanted a knish, but I have always eaten a potato knish so i got a Spinach one and it too was good no JOOD!!! (thats better than good) The Knish was packed with spinach and layered at the bottom with potato. Outstanding oh wait they seal your dish with a strip that says : Under CRC Supervision, now that just made this Kosher eater very excited, wait until I tell my friends this gem I found...

Visiting from Santa Cruz Ca., Hail Mary the food at Bebe;s is to thank the "Almighty" for! Praise be God, the service was fast, friendly and cute. The reuben was made to perfection. The meat melted in this Christians mouth! The bread fresh, soft, warm, near climatic! There is nothing to compare to this Jewish Kosher Deli in the land of granola bars, Santa Cruz, where I have resided for 4.5 decades! Chicago French Market is indeed a rich treat. Before I leave the Windy City I plan to order their Turkey Pastrami sandwich; I heard a couple sharing one, romance pure tasty love. Thanks Bebes HATS OFF!

Located in the French Market, a good place to grab a great sandwich. the hot pastrami special and the reuben are some of the best I have had. Food is fresh and made to order, service is very fast. Prices are a little high, but the portions are big. Delicious sandwiches you can eat there or take to go. #CitiExperts @Localguides

Service was very fast and friendly, despite the long line. Got the turkey club with turkey pastrami and very happy with it. The avocado was creamy and the garlic mayo is a good touch. The bread was soft.

Delicious everything crusty bagels and chive cream cheese to die for. Stopped here on my way from the train to office. I was craving a REAL bagel and Bebes was the best Ive had in a while. Thank you!

Not a deli but merely a shop in a food court. Their food is fine, but nothing to write home about.

Had the pastrami sandwich, and expected lots of flavor, but just another pastrami sandwich.
