WHY TROHA’S HAS SOME OF THE BEST SHRIMP IN CHICAGO

What makes the difference isn’t hype — it’s how the shrimp is prepared.

• Cooked in clean oil for a crisp, fresh taste

• Hand-breaded in small batches for consistency and quality

• Fried fresh to order — never sitting or pre-made

• Over 100 years of doing it the same way

You can taste the difference when shrimp is cooked right.

That’s why customers say it’s some of the best shrimp in Chicago.

🔹 WHAT MAKES CHICAGO SHRIMP DIFFERENT

Chicago has its own style of shrimp houses.

It’s simple, fast, and focused on quality:

• Light breading, fried fresh

• Served hot with fries and classic sides

• Built for carryout and quick service

• Rooted in neighborhood tradition

Troha’s is part of that tradition — and has been since 1917.
