Cheesesteaks • $
“Hands down the best cheesesteak in town!!! Absolutely authentic, great selections for those who like to deviate. NOT A CORPORATE CHAIN. A real deal Philly cheesesteak spot. They have a small area for eating in, but we usually just order for pickup. Never had a bad experience here.“
“Gourmet Cheese Steak & Pizza Company- Melbourne- 4 Stars I am not abstemious in my eating habits. For the Big Boy it's, well, Go "Big" or Go Home. That is why I like the Gourmet Cheese Steak & Pizza Company. This is the type of place my father longs for: Copious amounts of food prepared quickly and inexpensively. The owner of this restaurant, Christine, has hit on a successful formula of taking normal truck-delivered ingredients, creating mouth-watering recipes and delivering low cost, toothsome food--and lots of it. This joint is located in the old Lum's building on Babcock, for you old timers. The decor is no great shakes and the tables are early Wendy's. Seriously, the tables are actually the original Wendy's tables from the 1980's with the faux newsprint design. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza, a sloppy joe, and--of course--a cheese steak. Let's start with the cheese steak. Now, I know there are great arguments over cheese steak. I can only speak to the panorama of steaks I have consumed in Florida. I am going to go out on a limb and state that this particular cheese steak is my favorite in Brevard. The steak and peppers are succulent and flavorful. The provolone is melted lovingly inside. There is so much meat you really need a fork to eat it all. I would have preferred for this masterpiece to be presented on a prepared roll, but hey, it is what it is. Next, let's address the sloppy joe. You don't normally see sloppy joes on a menu, yet I consider it one of my all time favorite comfort foods. This joe is spiced and sauced spot on. The down side, once again, is the bun. It was taken out of a package and had the meaty concoction slapped on it. I submit that this carnivore's delight would have been even more delectable toasted or grilled with a dab of butter. Who knows? I am a reviewer, not a chef. Bottom line is that it was still good. Finally, we come to the pizza. Fresh dough, adequate ingredients, good presentation. Executed flawlessly. At this point, I know you are asking, "Hey, Big Boy, why not five stars?" Well, in this situation I just can't pull the trigger. It's good but it's not a restaurant I can confidently certify 5 Stars, especially with the bun situation being the way it is. That being said, Big Boy says to give the cheese steak a whirl and let me know what you think.“
“There is plenty of Philly memorabilia throughout the lobby area. K.C. was an excellent listener for great customer service. Three different lengths of bread and many combinations of ingredients for cheese steak sandwiches. The chef mixed up the ingredients on a gluten-free option, and lettuce and tomatoes were separate and not on the sandwiches.“
“The staff was very friendly and kind. The atmosphere is a little boring but that's okay. The food was surprisingly really delicious. The prices are decent also. Very clean establishment. I enjoyed myself and my kids enjoyed their meals.“
“Went there Saturday 9pm. I generally like Charleys, but my last 2 times I tried it at different location and it was not good. I gave this location a shot. I ordered in kiosk. Just standard cheesesteak and fries. Everything came out fast and fresh. The cheesesteak was not moist and wet, it was fresh, the bun was little crunchy and soft. Fries were fresh and hot. Good choice on Saturday evening!“
“My wife and I stopped in for a late lunch today. Cute clean establishment. A friendly server seated us right away. My wife ordered a skimpy authentic Philly with fries, the server pointed out the fries were enough to share-and they were. I ordered a large Philly with Jamaican Jerk seasoning. The server wanted me to try the seasoning before I ordered it-smart, it is a strong flavor, but I ordered it anyway. The food came right out. Large portions-I would have been very happy with a skimpy. My large almost beat me. There are larger sizes! We had a good time, left full. With one drink, lunch was $30.50 before tax.“
