Rye Deli + Drink

Amazing Tunisian breakfast!

This restaurant was SUPERB! from the staff to the atmosphere to the food everything was 5 STAR PLUS! I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich which was really amazing! All of the ingredients were fresh and the food arrived in a reasonable time! I will be bringing my family next time!

I am from the East Coast originally and have been on the hunt for the perfect bagel for some time now. Well, my mission is complete and I have to look no further. This thyme and salt bagel is one of the best I have ever had.

Great coffee and friendly staff - but most of all, the Pastrami Sandwich!! OMG Absolutely delicious!! I would've posted a photo but I ate it too quickly. So looking forward to trying their homemade bagels and matzo ball soup. So glad these guys are so close to my office.

The food is absolutely amazing! Ive eaten here with my wife a couple times since they’ve reopened and I’ve never been disappointed. The smoked salmon breakfast sandwich was well seasoned and the veggies are always fresh and adds a great balance the sandwich. OMG I can’t forget the fried chicken sandwich ,juicy, flavorful, and just all the way DE-LI-CIOUS. The staff friendly and helpful is the icing on the cake ! I will be back!

Rye Deli & Drink is a stellar addition to Chicago and the West Loop neighborhood. Not too far off the infamous Randolph Row of restaurants, Rye is situated close to the Greektown and the great restaurants like Greek Islands. Rye Deli delivers a delicious and new spin on the traditional deli bringing Bagels, smoked meats and creative cocktails. Sounds good right? It is! I knew I had try the smoked meats and my wife loves bagels so call it is match made. The food was definitely impressive and unique too. I enjoyed the smoked Turkey on Pita and got two bagels, Everything and Poppy. From the bagels to the smoked meat, I would say it has a lot of similarity to Montreal style, which is a good thing. They also threw in a taste of corned beef and pastrami- both great. My Turkey sandwich was awesome and I would order it again. Next time I will be getting the Reuben as the Corned beef is some of the best I’ve tried and is different than traditional style like at Mannys. I like how they are doing something different, even their cream cheese is yogurt based, how bout that. The rest of the menu looks delicious and will have to try the spreads and whole chicken.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. The Signature Brik was tasty and the Thyme bagel w strawberry labneh was good as well.

This place is fantastic. I ordered the signature Brik, the Brik House, and an everything bagel. The Brik House was delicious - I loved the juicy and well portioned pastrami. The signature Brik had an egg that was perfectly prepared alongside the leeks and garlic flakes. I also liked the thinly fried shell that encased both of the Briks that was lightly seasoned with a perfect amount of finishing salt flakes. The owner was so nice when he brought my order out to me during a snowy day. He also gave me a bagel to try on the house. Will definitely come here again.

I came to Rye for a lunch break on a Friday afternoon. It was my first time at Rye. This place was busy with customers. Which is alway good sign. The waitress Kathleen was outstanding helper. She assisted me with my order and gave me some good recommendations. Being it was my first time here. Her serves was outstanding during the ordering process, even checking on me after i received my meal. The food was very fresh and delicious. Even the cook/server was nice and friendly. He bought the food out with in a timely matter hot and fresh. Great overall service and experience. I will definitely be back....

Coffee is great and the bagels are absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend the “Littering and….” bagel sandwich…probably the best bagel I’ve ever had and worth every penny.

Great Bartenders!

So delicious sandwich!!! Thank you so much. And if it's gonna be with panini bread toasted sandwich would be best ever!!!

Their bagels are really, really, really good (well, tried only the plain one with salmon & labneh but I can already get a sense of their bagel quality. Definitely top notch). Every bite is in heaven. Reuben Sandwich is a little bit too greasy and salty. The beef is already fatty and smoky so I’d really like it if the bread can be plainer. I’d for sure come back for their bagels.

Great food and amazing customer service! One of my favorite lunch spots

We celebrated my wife’s bday in Chicago without anticipation of Rye, but Rye turned out to be great! Ting was awesome behind the bar and Mickie the bar manager was so engaged and friendly. And, a Chiefs fan too!
