Healthy tip: if you order a Hoagie and check extra lettuce and either bread on the side or no bread, and perhaps extra meat (upcharge), then you can have a nice (cheese)steak salad! I don't like cheese on meat, and I wouldn't get it on the salad, but that's your decision. I ordered Shorty Chicken steak with mushrooms, no cheese, add peppers, bread on side, extra extra lettuce, and added 4oz extra meat. They package meat on bottom and pile high with lettuce, but once you mix it up the meat flavors the lettuce nicely. Also, get the homemade potato chips!! They're so flavorful!

Amazing cheesesteak with white American and cheese wiz. It's everything you can possibly need with a cheesesteak!! Definitely going to order more from here. The fries weren't the best but this place is known for their cheesesteaks so it's ok. Also, they do not skimp on meat. There's so much it's glorious for a foodie anywhere.

The Cheesesteak Sandwich (Half) was the best i have had outside the east coast. the meat was well seasoned and the bread was nice and chewy. 5 stars!

Best cheese steaks ever! The ingredients are always fresh and the quality is consistent. if you order an extra side of sauce they even give you a large container full.
