Jimmy John's in Glenview: A great sandwich and catering stop

Jimmy John's in Glenview is a royal sandwich treat.  This is a franchise store that is owned by Faisal Ghani and is managed by the wonderful Neal who makes this operation move and hum. The Jimmy Johns idea came from a college kid named Jimmy John who graduated from Eastern Illinois University and opened a sandwich shop. All of the recipes belong to Jimmy Johns and have been implemented in all of their stores.

This wonderful destination has some great employees with great energy that can make a sandwich in 30 seconds and keep the shop in immaculate condition. They have a ten page list of items that need to be cleaned daily and there is someone from the corporate office who comes and inspects them on a consistent basis. They also offer catering in an hour but they prefer to have at least twenty four hours notice.



They are always searching for different way to improve the concept and operation and have opened their 1000th location. Faisal also owns Olive Mediterranean Grill in the Loop which offers pan Middle Eastern cuisine and is flavorful and tasty.

I had the pleasure of sampling the "Vito" sandwich which were supreme cut Italian meats, cheeses, oregano, Italian dressing on their famous eight inch bread which also came with chips, a whole pickle (which was a treat) and a great chocolate chip cookie.

Jimmy Johns in Glenview is a great destination and a treat to stop for which you're craving a great sandwich, chips, a cookies and soda.  It's clean and very well managed by Neal and Faisal.
