MEAT THE CHEEZY BEEF™
Bow down to THE Chicago Beef Legend. Packed with thin strips of juicy, award-winning, best-in-county-holy-cow roast beef, The Cheezy Beef™ is lovingly drizzled with a breathtaking blend of mozzarella and provolone cheeses. Put it on a fresh garlic bread bun and toss hot or sweet peppers on top for maximum legendary goodness. It’s stupid-good.
OUR SHACKS
We make it fast, we make it good, and we make it surrounded by stuff we like: classic rock music, real neighborhood people, and random stuff we found at garage sales. Every Shack is a different experience with a different look, because we let our local cooks decorate them and honestly they have no idea what they’re doing.

Ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. Very tasty. Had the Chicago dog. On point. The fresh cut fries could of been fried a little more. Little soggy for my liking. Over all good.

I ordered a chicken sandwich it came out with chunks of burnt sauce or whatever it was tasted like charcoal. The cook said that’s how they come from the marinade it sits in. Which I know isn’t true I’ve had 50 of these sandwiches never have they been burnt. It tasted of charcoal. Bartlett beef shack way better.

I ordered a beef sandwich with peppers. Made it a meal deal with the fries and drink. The beef was very good! Loved the fresh cut fries. They reminded me of the fries I would get when I ate at Gene’s and Judes in River Grove, IL. Just outside the Chicago limits on the NW side of Chicago. Staff was nice, friendly very accommodating. My only issue is one of the young men behind the counter had his pants half way hanging down. Exposing his underwear and his “bottom”. Maybe it’s me? Maybe I’m old fashioned? “Butt” that is something I don’t care to see when I am eating at an established restaurant with such good food. Respectfully.

$1 hotdogs on Tues draws a big crowd here. Great dogs and nice atmosphere, older crowd since it is near Denver. I was at a table by myself when an older couple asked to join me, not enough seat. They did and we talked for a little bit. Super nice crowd.

NEW UPDATE 9/15: Well, I went back because I love the food, but I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the Huntley location! I went through the drive thru for my chicken sandwich, soda and fries. I had to wait for the food in spot #1, which is fine. But, when I tried my soda I realized it was totally flat?! I went inside and said, the soda is flat. The response I got from Sarah, the cashier, was “We don’t have any carbonation.” I then asked, “Why would you sell me a soda if you knew there was no carbonation?” She said, “Some people drink it like that”…..WHAT?? SERIOUSLY? I can’t believe that I heard that response. I can’t believe she would be taking people’s money when she knows there’s no carbonation. I told her that she should tell people so they are aware. This is ridiculous. She was snotty and unapologetic. I am done with this location. It’s been problem after problem. I enjoy the food too much to stop going. After talking to the manager, Aly, she advised to try the new location on Randall, which I will happily do. I won’t waste my time or money at the Huntley location.

They used to be great until lately. Came in ordered my food I wasn’t explained why order was 19$ for one person. Asked why, was told I was charged 6$ for peppers, so I canceled. No big deal, kid 3 get away is mocking me calling me cheap, had to ask for my drink, again no big deal, then this same kid mocking me again interrupting me saying it was at the counter where I ordered, no it wasn’t. Portillis it is next time!

Not bad but really nothing special or above the other restaurants serving beef sandwiches. The beef was tasty and the roll was soft and fresh. I was a bit let down because the description of the “Cheesy Beef” sandwich was “legendary beef smothered in cheese”. I received a beef sandwich with a top layer of mozzarella cheese melted on top. The description of the sandwich had me expecting something more. The sandwich was good but really it was ordinary. Service was not rude or disrespectful but the order taker and the person handing me the order were not friendly but rather just going through the motions. No cheerful greeting, no smiles just strictly business. Lastly the restroom although not filthy it had been sometime since it had been cleaned. I felt this chain was created to be somewhat unique for this type of restaurant but missed the mark with uninterested staffing and lack of cleaning. To be fair I will try another location in the future. To sum it up if you’re hungry the food is okay but there may be a better choice as there are many restaurants in the area.
