The “ill” in Illstyl3 Sammies stands for the classic Philly steaks served up beneath the street-art mural that pays a tribute to the city. The downtown takeout restaurant uses 100 per cent Halal meat and an in-house blend of “illspice and herb mix,” to put an original take on these cheesesteak sandwiches. The menu provides a selection of cheesesteaks, hoagies, loaded fries, and signature Sammies. A crowd favourite is the crab fries, which is exactly what it sounds like: fries topped with fresh crab meat. Sammy’s signature cheesesteak can be made with AAA ribeye beef or with marinated chicken breast. Specialty Sammies include a baguette loaded in meats called the Slaughterhouse and a spicy chicken cheesesteak topped with hot peppers and a house-made hot sauce.
