The Scene – The huge main dining room, filled with aging beer signs and various Deutsche flags, does a consistently brisk business with its huge sandwiches, trademark split-pea soup and miscellaneous sausage and kraut plates. If you're lucky, you can jockey for one of the coathook-studded booths that line the west wall. – – The Food – Schilo's also happens to be an old-school take-out deli. Choose from one of their favorite sandwiches (Reubens, subs, bagels and lox or the always-popular Polish Neighbor), or go a bit more traditional with single meat…

I have come to eat here for 27 years! I love the pea soup!!!!! With a Frankfurter or Bratwurst..... It's all good! And of course the 2 slices of punpernickel bread....... Last night I could not finish it...... My wife had the parprika chicken with noodles. 3 home made rootbeers and ice tea..... Oops almost forgot the salad...... total was $13.50 without the tip.... Of course I left one for my waitress. Nice people!!!!! GREAT FOOD AND GREAT VALUE!
- Pros: Love this place and love the food!

Cheesecake to die for
by sscholz at Citysearch
Found this place on town pass during basic training in 1972. Have been going there whenever I was in SA ever since. That includes when I was stationed in Omaha and hauling a cheesecake back in a cooler. I aimed hundreds of people their way when I was a recruiter in IL.
- Pros: Great sandwiches, coffee, and cheesecake
- Cons: packed during lunch weekdays
