Chicago Cheese Steak

Stopped here today after reading a few of the reviews - this place is down the street from my house, but I've never noticed it before.

Tiny place - a few tables, probably wouldn't eat in, though a few people were.   I walked in and was met by a great smile and friendly service.   The lady (owner?) was so warm and welcoming.    The other patrons that came in, seemed to be regulars, as the people behind the counter seemed to know everyone by name/order.

I got the Chicago cheese steak and the chicken parmesan cheese steak  - to go.   I would rate the Chicago as 10 stars.  The steak was so thin and flavorful - loaded with cheese, onions, peppers - so, so good!   The Chicken parm, I would not recommend at all - the chicken was not good and the flavor was off.

The bread!  Oh - the bread!   The rolls these sandwiches are served on is some of the best, freshest I've ever tasted!

The fries were just 'eeehhh'.  I think they were supposed to be crispy, they looked like they were going to be.  But they were kind of soggy and tasted old.

I would absolutely come back for the Chicago Cheese Steak and the great service!

I love Cheesesteaks!! I'm extremely picky.  These are the best I've had in Chicago.  Sal, the owner is very friendly and an excellent cook.  He knows customer service.  You can eat in or take out, the seating is limited.  These cheesesteaks are loaded with meat and the buns are just right.  Perfect!  Their fries are great and they load them on.  Everything is made to order just as you order it.  They have several other sandwiches too, burgers, hot dogs, chicken-cheesesteaks and others that look very good, but I can't get past the Chicago Cheesesteaks!  This is definitely a fast food place, very casual.  You've gotta try the Cheesesteaks here,  one of the best food items on Cicero Ave.

On the day I went to try this place, I think a bunch of people had the same idea as it seemed as if they were overwhelmed and I think the owner was training new staff (which explains my 4 stars instead of 5 and I will probably change it to 5 after a second trip there) my hot dogs were way overcooked but they were still delicious and the cheese fries were beyond amazing! If I could I would eat an entire meal of just cheese fries they were that great! The person I went with had a cheese steak sandwich and he seemed to enjoy it quite a bit.
