I walked about four miles each way in Chicago winter weather for this sandwich and it was totally worth it.
It's a standard reuben sandwich in that all the ingredients are there without any extras: corned beef, Russian dressing, Swiss cheese, and sauerkraut all on toasted rye bread. Therefore, I'm not sure what makes this sandwich so awesome, but it is. My sister even dubbed it "the best sandwich she's ever had."
The sandwich is a bit pricey, but you have to remember you're right next to the Gold Coast where people walk dogs wearing clothes worth more than most people's cars. Yes, I'm serious. So I don't think $8.45 is too outrageous, especially when the sandwich tastes as good as it does.

That looks REALLY good. Or i'm just REALLY hungry. What kinda bread is that? and that's the long strip at the bottom? pickle?
Come to think of it wouldn't that be a better sandwich with lightly toasted whitebread instead (like a sub).
it's a lightly toasted and buttered rye bread - goes very well with the rest of the sandwich. and yes, the long strip at the bottom is a pickle - i think those are included as a palette cleanser.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i'm hungry.
