A Facebook request for REUBEN RUN votes produced some fun commentary.
Heather Estridge and Amanda Hyman weighed in in favor of O’Doherty’s Irish Grille.
Heather: “Ok, so it’s been a while but I loved the Reuben at the Irish pub downtown, O’Doherty’s.”
Amanda: “I vote for O’Doherty’s too…I always order it when I go there!”
Amanda also added: “Latah Bistro makes a good one too.”
Next came Mr. Benson with a vote for the Wall Street Diner on the near northside:
Kevin: “Oh! The Wall Street Diner knows how to make a good one. Let me know if you need more “reviewers”. YUM!!”
Kelley Damon confesses to regular visits to the Elk Public House for her Reuben fix:
Kelley: “My vote is the Elk. I had at least 100 during my last pregnancy! Love those cravings.”
And Blythe Thimsen suggests a second possible Reuben rivalry in close proximity. In Browne’s Addition the Elk and Cafe Marron go head-to-head across Cannon Street. Blythe says that the Reuben at Chaps is also a contender, and this creates a parking lot sandwich smack-down between countrified Chaps and upscale Latah.
Blythe: “No need to continue the voting, I have the answer – it is at Chaps – (across from Latah Bistro)”
Any place else we need to consider? We have seven sandwiches on the list thus far.
