Famous Philly Cheese Steaks & Beer Garden

Wow - Awesome cheesesteak and awesome service! The owner always seems to be working and knows his customers - I am always about supporting local businesses!

An amazing cheesesteak!! I'm from Philly, I grew up eating cheesesteaks. There are actually quite a few different versions of a Philly cheesesteak (dependent on where you lived). The big fight for the crown of Philly cheesesteak in Philly typically boils down to either Pat's or Geno's. While both of those are great cheesesteaks, theyre not what I grew up eating (I lived in Delaware County and my cheesesteak was different from Pat's/Geno's).

I have been searching for a great cheesesteak since I moved here a year+ ago. I'm surprised I havent stumbled upon this place in my searches before today.

Its off my beaten path, and the dining room is no 5 star restaurant...but its exactly fitting for what it is, a great place to pick up a quick and incredibly tasty cheesesteak.

When i walked in this morning around 11am, the dining room was empty except for one customer. I was greeted kindly by the female cashier. She took my order quickly (a 12" cheesesteak plain), and said it would be ready in a few mins. I sat down and she came around the counter and chatted with me while filling up some sodas (most likely for the staff). Within 2 mins my order (to go) was ready and brought to me wrapped and ready to go. I thanked the cook and he thanked me for visiting.

I drove to work (25 mins away), and when i got there i sat down to have lunch. I was astounded at how warm (still) and perfect this cheesesteak was. The Amoroso roll was perfect, and the balance of steak and cheese was spot on. It was greasy, and cheesy, and the best cheesesteak I've had since I last lived in Philly in 2005. It was THAT f#%&ing good. I seriously couldnt have asked for a better cheesesteak.

If youre near the area, I highly recommend trying these guys out. I plan on visiting them as often as I can.

If they were open Sundays in the winter I would be going there this Sunday as its the most convenient day for me to swing by that way.

Also a bonus, when I was leaving I saw a Pennsylvania license plated car in the lot. Made it feel like home.  :)

Holy Yum!  Don't let the detatched booths and uneven floors keep you away, this place has the best cheesesteaks ever!  I have tried a few different places and found them to be OK or decent - this is amazing!!  Chock full of meaty goodness and when you add bacon they chop it up with the steak so each bite is equally incredible!

I'm not from Philly and don't know authenticity, but I do know taste and it fulfills my need every time!  I just wish I lived closer - well maybe my waistline knows I shouldn't ;-)

Just go!
