text: I am a Chicago boy bred and raised on Italian beefs Johnnys Bouna Beef Portillos and a slew of mom and pop shops nnHaving just moved to Phoenix I thought I would have to suffer a bit without my regular fix of Italian beef wet and hot I am pleased to say I found a highly acceptable solution here in town mere miles from my housennThe beef and sausage were dead on the jus was great the hot gairdinera sp Vienna was exactly what I wanted Ok the bread is not perfect it lacks something it is not Turano from Chicago Even the fries skin on were very goodnnTo top off the experience the interior decor is a great shout out to my kind of town Familiar street signs skyline views and even a Chicago rock radio station playing in the background made for a wonderful homesick lunchnnOnly negative I had a cannoli that was only slightly filled at the ends and hollow in the middle Not coolnnI will soon be a regular and ultimately the duke of Joeys nnnPS last plus I did not have to climb over mounds of snow and slush to get into the shop
