Our Story - Slinging Chicago Flavor, One Sandwich at a Time
Frankie Loulousis and Eddie Ledezma, two blue-collar boys from Chicago's South Side, embarked on a delicious journey to bring their hometown flavors to Florida. Fueled by a love for the small food joints they grew up with, they joined forces to create Frankie's Chicago Beef. Our food is a labor of love, where every dish is crafted with passion and nostalgia.
