There’s loads of flavours to choose from at this cheesecake shop in Terminal 1. I had a slice of the delicious key lime. Very flavorful and worth a try. I’ll definitely look for a larger Eli’s on my next visit to Chicago. 😊
ORD needs more local establishment eatery representation like Eli's. And Eli's does well to represent the Chicago food scene. Plain Cheesecake is the gold standard that tests the mettle of the baker. The filling of Eli's cheesecake is a top notch preparation of creaminess, sweetness, and texture. Alas, the crust wasn't up to par with the filling. The crust was soggy and acquired a mild refrigerator off taste.
It's easy to miss that this place serves both Italian Beef and Chicago hot dog. Didn't sample the former, but the hot dog was the real deal.

Eli's Cheesecake at O'Hare Airport offers a unique Chicago-style cheesecake experience. Their cheesecakes are lighter and airier than traditional New York-style, with a creamy interior and a cookie crust. The classic chocolate chip and strawberry flavors are tasty, but the cherry vanilla bean cheesecake stands out. The cheesecakes are visually appealing, with a great balance of sweet and savory notes. While some may find the prices a bit high, the quality makes them worth trying. Visitors can also enjoy a Chicago-style hotdog with Vienna beef in United Terminal 1, with a steamed poppy bun, considered a reasonable option for airport food. The Belgian chocolate cheesecake is highly recommended for its smooth, rich, and chocolatey flavor, softening quickly for a delicious treat. The staff are friendly and patient, making Eli's Cheesecake a good spot to grab a sweet treat before or after a flight.
