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!
- Cons: The restaurant is in need of restoration (building)
Cheesecake to die for
by sscholz
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
