For a place that puts such care into their pizza, i will never understand why they would lax on their quality when it comes to sandwiches. Being from Chicago, i tend to be critical of Pizza, but i actually really enjoy Spinatos. The crust is good, and they use fresh ingredients and creative combinations that make it very good. \n\nWhere i was greatly disappointed was in the quality of their sandwiches. I ordered a chicken parm sandwich and was very surprised to see that the chicken was clearly from a freezer variety breast that we can all find at Costco or anywhere else. This was disheartening, given the fact that the bread was soft on the inside and crusty on the outside, and all the other ingredients were spot on. Why would they risk everything by cutting corners on their meats? Made me wonder, how many other ingredients originate in a freezer box. \n\nAs Gordon Ramsey would say..... They probably spend more time and energy freezing, thawing, and recooking this chicken then they would with fresh product. \n\nI am afraid to try the Italian Beef, as this is another Chicago Original that i would demand nothing less then perfection on. My recommendation to the owners is to ditch the freezer... Make all original, all fresh ingredients. People can tell the difference.
