A Cheesesteak Whiz Returns to Lincoln Square 17 Months After A Devastating Fire - Eater Chicago
"Nearly a year and a half after it was destroyed by a fire, Monti’s Cheesesteaks, a piece of Philly in Lincoln Square, has moved back and settled into its former location at Talman and Lawrence with almost its entire staff and menu intact. The fire and subsequent remodel (covered by insurance) gave owner David Weissner a chance to give the restaurant a few much-needed upgrades, mostly to infrastructure, like wiring, and a few adaptations to the COVID-19 era... Overall, though, both Weissner and his customers are glad that Monti’s is back. 'It’s good to be home,' Weissner says. Monti’s, 4757 N. Talman Avenue, Open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily." - aimee.levitt
