Meltwich Food Co. — Restaurant in Lombard

I really wanna see Halal restaurants succeed because it’s important for our whole community but I cannot endorse this Restaurant in anyway and that’s saying a lot because I typically have a pretty forgiving mindset when it comes to an outside restaurant because it’s not my own home and I can’t control everything But the food’s quality was absolutely dismal and the presentation was invisible. The service was abysmal. The weight was near an hour for a simple menu order, and the food tasted salty and oily pretty much all around and the worst part about it is the staff the staff that I saw working behind the bar Probably in the age group of like 10 to 12 years old, which really shouldn’t be happening I think even the chefs in the back we’re young too, and it seems like they’re probably understaffed all in all. They had better get their act together because this restaurant chain has a lot of a good reputation Across the world and if I didn’t know that I would never want to eat there after...

This place caught my eye during a visit to addah so i decided to check it out on a random Monday afternoon! From one look at their menu you can tell that these guys are doing something different from all the halal burger places and I am all for it. Got the philly melt, southwest chicken melt, and a standard burger combo with fried and mac and cheese wedges. The food is fresh and delicious and what i really like is that their menu is actually offering items besides the typical “smash burger menu that you see at other places. I’ve had burgers, fries and shakes before but i’ve never had a halal deluxe grilled cheese. Flavors for all the sandwiches were on point and the bread didn't get weighed down or soggy from all the moisture of the cheese. Mac and cheese wedges were a phenomenal side and something different. For a soft opening these guys definitely set the bar high...

I recently stopped by Meltwich and decided to try their Philly Cheesesteak—and I have to say, it definitely hit the spot.

The sandwich was packed with flavor. The steak was tender, juicy, and cooked just right. The melted cheese blended perfectly with the meat, and the grilled onions added a sweet-savory balance that took it to the next level. The bread was nicely toasted—crispy on the outside but still soft inside, holding everything together without getting soggy.

The portion size was solid, and I left feeling full but not overly stuffed. The staff was friendly, and service was quick, even though it was pretty busy when I visited.

If you’re craving a comfort food classic with a gooey, cheesy twist, I’d definitely recommend giving their Philly Cheesesteak a try. I’m curious to go back and explore more of their...
