Jeff & Judes

A self-described "Jew-ish" deli, Jeff & Judes is named after Chef Ursula Siker’s parents and inspired by the kind of places where she ate growing up in Los Angeles. Nearly everything on the menu (except for the bagels, sourced from New York Bagel & Bialy in Lincolnwood) is made in-house, including the pastrami, corned beef and lox. Stop by in the morning to snag a killer bacon, egg and cheese bagel or come in the afternoon for steaming bowls of matzo ball soup, a stacked reuben and latkes. You can even take home beautiful loaves of challah and marble rye bread—in a city where Jewish delis are scarce, Jeff & Judes is a delicious revelation.
