I had the Italian Beef and it was savory and flavorful. It was lean and the bun had the right amount of crunch. A taste of Chicago.

Our family relocated to the area from Chicago recently, and Chicago Taste Authority was exactly what we had hoped it would be… a taste of home!! The food was delicious, atmosphere spot on, and service was great. 5 stars and we will be back soon!!

Had a great time, good salad, Italian beef and gyro sandwiches too! The bread for the Italian beef was outstanding!
In 2004, the Dubnecay brothers started a successful business on 42nd and Hiawatha in South Minneapolis. Originally named “Chris & Rob’s Chicago’s Taste Authority” they started with Chicago-Style Dogs, Italian Beef Sandwiches as well as the must-have Maxwell Street Polish. Customers, both Chicago transplants and Minnesota locals, responded with the power of The Windy City and the business grew from there.
Rob claims to have the only "authentic Chicago style food in the area.” The proof is in the fact they serve true 100% beef dogs, polish sausage and Italian beef. Made fresh exclusively for Chicago’s Taste Authority by a fourth-generation family meat merchant. No nitrates, No preservative. Never frozen. Shipped from Chicago to Minnesota.
