Discover Hillside
Hillside is an area of Chicago that has plenty of fun eating options for the discerning visitor. If you love barbecue, you're in luck because there are plenty of high-quality options for you. However, you can also try out some great soul food imported from the South and served exactly how you like it. If you want something a little meatier, many steakhouses in the area serve prime cuts at fair prices. That said, traditional Mexican is also a favorite food style in Hillside. Visitors to the area should try an Italian beef sandwich, which is done Chicago style.
