In Short
A spacious and bright interior dotted with red chairs encourages you to come in and stay awhile. Hanging sausages and a deli counter that rivals Zabar's reminds you that yes, you are at a Jewish deli after all. Like the huge, decadently decorated cupcakes in the rotating sweets case, portions here tend towards the generous. All the Jewish favorites abound, from kreplach to lox platters and gefilte fish. Overstuffed sandwiches like the vegetarian liver (made out of chickpeas) don't leave much room for dessert but there's Carnegie cheesecake and sour cream coffee cake if you're having nostalgic cravings.

If you are from Detroit you will be especially disappointed in Steve's Deli in Chicago. The taste and quality is just okay and some items should be avoided (e.g., roasted turkey on a Kaiser roll). The prices are high, given the size and quantity, especially for side items (e.g. a very small dish of cole slaw that typically comes with a sandwich in most delis is a la carte at an outrageous $2.75). Also disappointing is the atmosphere which is more like a malt shop than a kosher style deli. There are better choices, even in Chicago.
