Awesome cheesesteak! Definitely one of the better steaks around! Take out was a quick call and 20 minutes later food was ready (they even text you when order is done!). Parking is an absolute nightmare tho. Glad I brought my son who was able to jump out and grab the food. If I didn’t have him, not sure how I would have picked it up: zero spots and like 10 cars waiting (no joke).
Best cheesesteak. Discovered from a Reddit thread. Got with cooper sharp and onions. Flavorful, can tell meat is higher quality, cheese distributed throughout, bread doesn’t fall apart and drip everywhere, and sandwich maintains structure with every bite. Definitely would return and make it a destination trip just for this.

The cheesesteak is awesome. It would be my #1 only if the ribeye was chopped up as fine a Dellasandro’s, but my gosh is it good. I have no issue driving 30 minutes to get there. It was so good that I couldn’t eat it all and purposely saved half for later. Seriously though, don’t sleep on this establishment. I’ll be a regular customer from now on (even if Dellasandro’s is only 7 minutes away).
