‘Destination For Mouth-Watering Beef Sandwiches’ Opens In Oswego

OSWEGO, IL — A "destination for mouth-watering beef sandwiches" has joined Oswego's restaurant offerings.

Beef Shack opened at 3433 Orchard Road with outdoor seating and a drive-thru. The new location marks the group's sixth in the Chicagoland area.

Customers can expect "the best sandwiches made only from fresh, never-frozen ingredients." Beef Shack is known for the "Cheezy Beef," a roast beef sandwich made with an in-house seasoning blend, dipped in jus, topped with hot or sweet peppers, and covered in a blend of cheeses.

The menu also features burgers, hot dogs, Italian sausage, 24-hour marinated chicken breast sandwiches, brioche grilled cheese and shakes.

Beef Shack is a family-run company. Daniel Perillo is the CEO, while his sons Brandon Perillo and Daniel Perillo IV work as vice president and president of operations, respectively. Daughters Gina Perillo and Stephanie Hobbs serve as social media strategist and business office manager, respectively. The CEO's brother Mike Perillo is the company's corporate manager.

"The involvement of my brother and children in the business has been as equally gratifying as the continued growth, loyalty and enthusiasm of Beef Shack's customer base throughout Chicagoland," Perillo said in a statement.

The Oswego restaurant joins five others — three across St. Charles, Huntley and Bartlett and two in Elgin. Three more locations are expected to open in Glen Ellyn, North Aurora and Crystal Lake, and plans for out-of-state spots are also in the works, officials said.

Oswego Beef Shack is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The restaurant offers carry-out, delivery, catering and a rewards program.
