C.Y.O.C. Create Your Own Cheesecake and Cheesesteak - North Chicago 2314 North Green Bay Road, North Chicago, IL 60064

"Moving up here from the south, it's hard finding good customer service. I found it today. Destiny greeted me with a warming and beautiful smile. She was patient with me while I made my order (My family can be kinda picky) smiling the entire time. Watching her and the other two workers here, you could tell they had a great working relationship which feeds into customer service. I was very pleased with the service, the food, and the accuracy on my order!"

"Great place to get cheesesteaks and cheesecakes!!! We had 5 variations of the fries and nachos and all were so good! The cheesecake was almost an ice cream consistency and they even cut up some fresh strawberries for me bc they were out of the strawberry sauce...perfect! They weren't super busy so they let us hang out and visit with friends and our new Sailor, def a must visit if you're in the area!"

"Very good! It was recommended to me by a coworker so I decided to give it a try. I got the Philly steak works wrap with EVERYTHING, fries and a drink. Very good and filling. It was around 20 bucks for the entire thing, however depending on how hungry you are this can last you about 2 meals. Portions were a great size."

"This is a little gem off the rIad that one can easily miss if not paying attention. Definitely worth stopping and eating at. The sandwiches, at least the Philly steaks are great, that is what we had. I'm sure the other sandwiches are excellent as well,because you can tell theowner/chef takes pride in his establishment, and will not serve his guests something sub-par. The make yourself cheesecake is amazing. I had upside down cheesecake and the wife had chocolate. Oh it was divine. This is a quaint little place by Lovell Hospital that is a great place to stop for lunch. You will not be disappointed."

"3 stars means I would neither tell someone to go here, nor avoid here. The food is tasty, but definitely a gut-bomb. We ate at around 5pm and still felt loaded down when we went to bed at 10pm. My wife's Philly Chicken Nachos needed to be remade due to stale chips, but they cheerfully and quickly remade them with fresh chips. Once remade, they were quite good. CYOC's kids' chicken strips are VERY nice! Pieces of chicken, not just pressed-together scraps, breaded and fried to perfection. One of the highlights on their menu. Get these! Fries are respectable. Not setting the world on fire, but definitely in the upper half of fries I have had in my life. It is a little confusing to figure out where to go to order, as no one acknowledges you when you enter. Once you get someone's attention, however, their customer service is very good. The cheesecake-scooped-and-served-like-ice-cream concept is yummy and surprising. I wonder how it would be if it was served a closer to ice cream temperature. Overall, CYOC is a restaurant I would not go out of my way to eat at again, but if someone asked me to meet them there, I would definitely say yes... and I'll probably order the chicken strips."
