The Eli’s Cheesecake Company is a family owned business dedicated to baking the highest quality, natural dairy cheesecake and desserts, while supporting our community, local farmers and small businesses.

We are proud of our Chicago roots that date back over 75 years when Eli Schulman opened his first restaurant on Chicago’s west-side. It was at Eli’s the Place for Steak, his award winning restaurant on Chicago‘s Magnificent Mile, where Eli developed the recipe for his signature cheesecake. 

We have grown over the past 40 years but still take our time to create the highest quality desserts by slow-baking in small batches and allowing the finest ingredients to develop to their optimum flavors...the key to achieving Eli's unique taste and texture.  All our desserts are handmade and decorated at Eli's Cheesecake World, our bakery located on Chicago's northwest side.
