Vote for the Schnitzel King!


The Schnitzel King is looking to expand his empire! We have entered to win a $250,000 small business grant from Chase and need your help to win! Visit Here and vote for Da King!

With the grant, the Schnitzel King will transform the sidewalk café to a beer garden, offering more outdoor seating and liquor on the menu for the adults. There are also plans to retrofit the inside of the storefront & add a smoothie bar for summertime, and a baking/coffee area for winter. With these additions, the King will bring more jobs to the community as well. Also we will make some necessary updates to the food truck and get it back on a more regular schedule in Chicago. We’ve added Grubhub for delivery but would like to expand our delivery service further. We would also like to permanently add more locally grown produce to the menu. Last but not least we want to build an interactive website that offers online ordering, so that the moment you want your schnitzel you can place your order and be on your way to living out your schnitzel dreams!

And as always, the most sincere thanks to all who continue to support the Schnitzel King. We appreciate your love of schnitzel and the friendship that comes with it.

Royally Yours,

Opening week at Da Schnitzel King storefront!


After months of renovating our storefront location at 308 W 33rd street, we were finally ready to open our doors to Chicago on June 3rd. Many natives of Bridgeport will recognize the location as the home of the former Parkside Cafe, or more recent location of Pat's Italian Beef. 


Just a few short blocks north of Sox park, game day goers and Bridgeport residents can enjoy freshly fried schnitzel and grilled meats daily. One of the renovations the King did was updating the existing charcoal grill and installing an Argentinian grill (shown below). With the help of the Schnitzel Queen's family, who've been in the meat business for over 60 years, Da King hand selects the best cuts of meat from the meat market daily. He then hand trims each cut of meat and grills it to perfection.
This week's off-da-grill special was the beef tri tip sandwich, served on fresh Turano long loaf bread and topped with our homemade beef stock/au jus, adding sautéed sweet peppers & onions as requested. 


Devoted schnitzel fans can always find their favorite schnitzels on the menu daily, ranging from the Chicago schnitzel, saucy schnitzel, and holstein schnitzel with your choice of pork or chicken. For our vegetarian friends we still carry the eggplant schnitzel and serve it up saucy with our homemade Czech red sauce & Pecorino Romano cheese. We've added schnitzel fingers to the menu for our littlest schnitzel fans, as well as handcut onion rings and handcut french fries. We carry Filbert's root beer in da keg- local to Bridgeport!- and offer it with our vanilla soft serve and whip cream for the best root beer float on the southside. 

If you're in the neighborhood stop on by, or make an afternoon of schnitzeling and let us do the cooking for you! Feel free to give us a call before hand if you want a quick pick up 312.225.7250. We'll be adding delivery to the menu soon too!

Royally Yours,
SK
