Who doesn't love a good sub! Leno's is a staple in the Waukegan area. The service is always good and the food is always . The sandwiches are full and enough to share or save half for later. The seating area isn't very large, but there is seating available. Parking isn't ideal, but we all make it work. Will always recommend!

I called in an order for one of their 36" subs - ordered the 'Italian stallion'. Was ready in 15 minutes. All tasted fresh and such a deal when compared to the chains.... About $35... the same at a chain would be over $50....

Had a strong need to have some Italian beef before heading back home to California and Leno's didn't disappoint! The beef was lean and tender atop soft fresh bread with juice on the side for dipping. Included onions, thinly sliced green peppers and tomato. Was also feeling nostalgic and got myself a Green River lime soda which I had not experienced since my youth. Small clean ambiance with friendly service since 1970.

Leno's has been around for more years than I can remember. I have been going there since I was in high school more than 40 years ago and they have the best sub sandwiches in Waukegan. I normally get the original, ,but I wanted to try the Italian beef. Remember, this is a sub sandwich, not the hot Italian beef that is dipped in au just. My sub sandwich comes with tomatoes, onion and peppers and a side of Italian dressing and it was delicious!

It's been many years since I've been here. I think I read somewhere that the ownership had changed. I do think that the bread was different than what I remember. I always remember that this was the best sub shop around this area although I am also a very big fan of the Hoagie Hut several blocks west on Grand.I had an original 18 inch sub that was outstanding! I was golfing in the area so I had half for lunch and the other half for dinner. The bread was super fresh, the cold cuts and cheese blended well together with the onions lettuce and tomato. I added giardiniera. They provided pepperocini peppers and a salad dressings that I choose not to use since I was eating in my car plus I had the giardiniera on it already. Large menu should please any sandwich craving.Limited parking and dine in. There's a counter with bar stools and 3 booths. No one was eating in on the day I was there.I want another

Amazing Sub! Fresh ingredients and great service. I would definitely recommend over the chain sub shops.

Don't get the hype with this place , I'm from up north and love a good deli this wasn't it. Maybe it was what I got but the ham on my sandwich had fat running through it. I couldn't eat it, I was highly disappointed

A Lake County classic! Parking isn't easy, but I promise it's worth it. From quality meat, friendly service and unique beverage options- you can't go wrong. They even have green river, which is hard to come by these days. A real gem.

Spent $17 ended up with a spicy pepperoni sandwich. . as far as ambience they were Rude . Management always has the right to mismanage . They use good bread. If your in that think you might know what makes a good Italian sub. I'm not happy
