    THE TENDERIZER WITH TOTS
    Ravi Kiran T.

    My office organizes Food Trucks for the employees during summer time and the Cheesie's was one of the options. It was a nice sunny day when they came over. I got the grilled chicken sandwich with tater tots. It was very delicious - I opted for less cheese which turned out to be a good decision as it turned out that my colleagues felt super heavy after eating the meal. The staff in the food truck was very attentive and courteous to all of the company folks.

    I came across this cheesy sandwich truck while exploring Chicago. I was looking for a truck that had vegetarian options and this was a happy find. I had the Caprese sandwich with tater tots. With the name of the truck, I half expected the tots to have glorious cheese on them, but sadly they did not. They were still really good though!

    The tenderizer
    Yi Rong T.

    One of the staple food trucks sitting out by Wacker drive. Ordered the Tenderizer and some tater tots. Tater Tots - Your typical run of the mill tater tots. Nuff said. Score of 3/5 The Tenderizer - One of the choices at the food truck that comes with some protein which in this case is fried chicken tenders and bacon. The sauce wasn't overwhelming and complimented the chicken well. The bread had a nice toasty texture and wasn't mushy from the sauce which was great. Score of 4/5 Overall worth it for the sandwiches but the sides weren't anything standout.

    Cheese. In. My. Mouth. More. Cheese. Please. Grilled cheese on Texas Toast, grilled cheese on sourdough, spicy grilled cheese, Mac and cheese grilled cheese, and classic grilled cheese. So many options to choose from and I promise you won't be disappointed. These sandwiches are massive. One half is enough to fill you up. Talk about food coma after lunch? Well, here's the best food truck about it. My only complaint is, during a lunch rush, it took slightly longer than most food trucks to get the order than normal. The jalapeno popper grilled cheese isn't as spicy as it could be, but for most that's probably A-okay. Other than that, it was delicious. I was very pleased. Take a look at this picture down there, talk about cheese heaven. Mmmmmgood!

    Delicious sandwiches, made to order! Haven't had one I didn't like! Highly recommend!

    The Classic
Cheddar cheese, American cheese, tomatoes, ham and bacon on Texas toast.

    Best Grilled cheese Ever-in-my-life!!!!! To my surprise they were parked across the street from my job today. I had the classic which was cheddar cheese, American cheese, tomatoes, ham and bacon on Texas toast. Served with tomato soup dipping sauce. OMGGGG so deliciously cheesie. This just made my week!

    The Caprese
    Nancy D.

    I see the appeal of this truck. Savory, buttery, cheesy deliciousness. Overall, great experience, but not sure I would return given the price. It was $9 for the Caprese. The flavor was excellent. However, it was really, really greasy. And I get it, that's probably what people want, but it was excessively, uncomfortable greasy. To the point where you hate yourself afterwards and you're not really sure it was worth it. The tomatoes slices were huge, and slipped right out of the sandwich after the first bite. The sandwich was mostly bread and very little ingredients. The basil was cut nice and small so it was distributed evenly through the sandwich. It's good, it's an experience, the people are nice, but it's really pricey given the lack of content to the sandwiches and the grease factor.

    The tenderizer and popper.
    Joanne S.

    All I can say really is ooey gooey goodness. The sandwiches are generously fill with cheese and other delicious ingredients. We had the popper, which had cream cheese, cheddar, bacon , and jalepenos on Texas toast. Sooooo good. We also had the tenderizer. Which was different but still really good the combination worked. It had Cheddar, Mozarella, Hot Sauce, Bacon, Fried Chicken Tenders, with Sweet baby ray's BBQ sauce on Texas Toast. Comes with Ranch as a dipping sauce. We weren't sure about the ranch but it worked. Great food!!!!

For Restaurant Week 2026, you were met with a drink (beer, N/A, or bourbon), one starter 'snack', entree and dessert for $48. In comparison to other participating restaurants this was a steal. I visited without a reservation on Wednesday evening, and there was ample seating. My friends and I enjoyed a sample of foods from the #CRW menu. For the 'snacks' we got the brisket devil eggs, the brisket loaded fries, as well as the chicken wings. All were very tasty however, the loaded fries were the star. Now here is where things got good. For our entree we had the 'Little City Eats' which was brisket, 1/2 rack ribs, chicken legs AND TWO sides (which I got the mac n cheese and the baked beans.) All the food was tasty and for the tasting menu, I was impressed with how much food we were provided. To go containers are needed. For dessert we got the banana pudding, we were scraping the bottom of the jar. Sweet but not overbearing and layered with wafers, and whip cream! Overall the food, was tasty, and the service was attentive and knowledgeable.

Huge shoutout to Ivan, our server -- he was phenomenal. Super attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. He kept the drinks flowing, checked in at all the right times, and genuinely made us feel taken care of. If you're looking for a great brunch spot in Chicago with incredible service and drinks that don't disappoint, this is it. We'll definitely be back!

I was exited for him to try their arepas and appetizers. We sat outside. There was about 4 tables with guests outside as well. I started off with the chicha and we asked the waitress if the lunch special was offered. She said because of it being Memorial Day, there was no lunch special. Ok so that was fine. She came back with the drink in about 5 min. At that time all the tables outside had cleared out. We asked if we can have a few more minutes so my husband can decide on what he wanted. She left and we figured she would be back in 5 min to get our order. 15 minutes passed by and she did not come back. There were no other tables being serviced. Why would she take that long? My husband was so disappointed that he suggested we just leave. We went inside to pay for the drink and saw that there was hardly any customers inside. Our waitress was chatting with the cooks. Such a disappointment. She didn't even look back to acknowledge us. I just found the next waitress to pay for my drink. My husband never wants to come back. Sorry Bienmesabe.
