Who would have thought you could go to Kittitas, WA to get an authentic Philly cheesesteak sandwich? It takes me back to my childhood. The original: steak with grilled onions and provolone. Nothing else. I, alas, can no longer eat gluten but they took care of me with a cheesesteak on a bed of lettuce. It was delicious. I loved that it had mixed greens and it felt so much lighter and healthier to have it on lettuce instead of a roll. The cole slaw was delicious and packed a punch with horseradish and the housemade potato chips are worth every decadent calorie. And they have many of the authentic Philly foods, including Tasteycakes. read more

This place is fire!!!! Me and the family made the pit stop on the way back from Pullman today, impressed is an understatement. Food was amazing (had cheesesteaks in Philly), service was 10/10, great little local spot to visit. The coleslaw was an absolute delight out of left field it had a kick to it 11/10 on the slaw!! Pull your ass over and give it a try trust me!!! read more

Love the Rueben and blt with turkey They are super nice and happy to meet special requests read more

Truly, this was the best thing I've eaten driving through eastern Washington. The hoagie rolls were so soft and luscious. The beef and peppers with mushrooms and cheese were perfectly seasoned and blended. I wish they were in Seattle so I could get one anytime. The interior is a classic diner feel, and the waitress working was very kind. read more

509 Philly Stop - Half of a Philly cheesesteak sandwich - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Kittitas, Washington

This place is amazing home made chips and great friendly service. The 4 different meals were amazing

Supper kind and nice people. has really good food for a good price. Daily specials too.

First off, if you're going to have a Philly cheesesteak place you got to have the right bread. These guys have the right bread to taste just like Philly. They have a giant selection of hoagies and cheesesteaks. I opted for a traditional cheesesteak but I like provolone and I like onions and then they have peppers as well so I threw that in there which isn't very traditional but that's the way I like it. And then the pro move is you order a side of cheese fries that are smothered and cheese whiz and you pick up the fry and dunk it into the sauteed onions and peppers and eat that like a corn dog. Almost. Delicious! I'm totally coming back to this place and maybe getting a pizza steak or a hoagie or a hot sandwich. The locals seem to be in here. They have easy parking right out front. They got a bunch of tables inside and the guy cooking brings out your food. I love it! read more

We stopped at this place on our way back from the gorge since our usual stop (the diner by the gas station near the gorge) had sadly closed due to the owners passing. You could tell this was definitely a locals spot which was cute, but didn't seem to work in our favor. The people were friendly which is what our two stars are going towards. We ordered 4 sandwiches, 1 side of onion rings, and purchased 2 cookies that were in a basket on the front counter. We ended up waiting about 30 minutes, all while 5 or so people (who clearly knew the people working based on their interactions with them) came in, ordered, got their food and left while we were still sitting there waiting. We were exhausted and just wanted to eat and make it to our flight in Seattle on time, so this was pretty disappointing. I understand wanting to take care of your regulars and friends, but 30 minutes for 4 sandwiches and a side of rings is an insane amount of time either way. The food looked amazing, but sadly only one out of our 4 sandwiches was anything to write home about. The mushrooms on mine were old and and had the texture and taste of being out of a can, and every component of our sandwiches lacked seasoning. The two cookies we got were stale and dry. All in all this was an incredibly disappointing experience and we will continue to search for a nearby after gorge restaurant. This just ain't it. read more

Wow, these are great! And they are HUGE. They fly in their rolls from Philly twice a week and the roll was perfect. The service was super friendly and it was about 10 minutes to get our sandwiches and fries. The fries were also awesome. But you better be REALLY hungry because the sandwiches as so big. Love this place and we'll definitely be back. read more

What a pleasant surprise.....was traveling across the state to take my son to college and saw this place on yelp. Was not expecting to find a great Philly place in the middle of the state. We both had Philly sandwich's and they were top notch. We would definitely go back. Spoke with the owner....he knows his stuff because he grew up in Philadelphia. He and his wife make a great team. My only complaint is that they are not closer to where I live because I would be a regular there. read more

What can I add to the already great review of the 509 Philly Stop. We stopped in for lunch; mine the cheesesteak, and my partner the corn beef sandwich and onion rings. All were great and enough food to fill you up. everyone is friendly and the service efficient. read more

Friendly people and an awesome cheese steak that was straight from south Philly. The onion rings and fries were hot and crisp. A small, fun place--even has board games! read more

Stopped by on our way home from Seattle and left very satisfied. Not only was the food excellent but so was the service. We split the rodeo cheesesteak, made it a combo, portion definitely matched the price. Nowadays it's very difficult to find a local place that has both excellent food and service, both of which this place has. read more

The only problem I've had here is struggling with the decision of which excellent sandwich to order or the temptation to eat too much lumpia on our trip from Laconner to Spokane.Easy Highway access ,wish we had a place like this near our house. read more

What a blast to have Philly Cheese steaks in Kittitas PLUS its surprisingly healthy. Im gluten free and i can have any cheese steak over a salad. Its crazy flavorful. The meat is salt free for those who are watching their salt intake. How is it so good??? So if you want to chow on the whole hoagie experience or slide down the gluten free side of life- BOTH are found here. The owners are wonderful and engaging. Youll be glad you made the choice to eat at 509!!! read more

Friendly and helpful. The food comes in a good quantity. A very welcoming establishment has a local / community support feeling. Bright and inviting ambiance. read more

Yes, do it! Eat here!! It's delicious. We were just passing through. Really great Philly!

Great Philly Cheese Steak. Best I've had. Great people and even gave my malamute a bacon strip. Now she'll want to stop every time we go through. Can't wait to try other items on the menu. read more

The most delicious sandwiches and fries. Not to mention the staff is always so friendly and service is quick. My favorites so far are the Philly cheesesteak, Italian hoagie, and the fries. read more

Quiet little place in town. Very friendly people working there, food was decent. Had a couple Phillies, will be going to try it with the whizz, I've been told that's the best way to get it. Onion rings were very good. read more

I don't write reviews but it was hands down the best burger I've ever had eating out, their double cheeseburger exceeded all expectations.

These are great sandwiches. I never liked meatball subs before I had one from here. The bread is amazing. The fries are wildly good too!

Food was delicious and staff was very friendly. Highly recommend. Try out their chili!

We had the mushroom burger and the rebuen/pastrami sandwich. The burger was good, not very big though and no fries (you can order them separately). The sandwich was good, not smoothered in sauces, just right. Their menu is HUGE! Not sure how you can cook all that or have all those fresh items on hand? Maybe hone in on less? The cook in the back was working hard and cooking as ordered. The high school gal at the counter was friendly and sweet, the place is cute and there are plenty of tables. We would go back! read more

Great people and great food! A go to in Kittitas!!! I always order ToGo but the inside is cute and clean.

Absolutely crushed it! Great service... lots of fun, and great service. I have made this my new stopping point on I-90.... Absolutely crushed the eggplant parm and the cheese steak was unreal. Looking forward to trying all of the east coast specialties on the menu... read more

Absolutely excellent! Truly authentic and authentic! All my favorites that I have been missing since leaving the east coast! Will make it a weekly stop! read more

This place is the best in Kittitas County. Today they had fresh baked chocolate chip cookies that they let us take right off the cooling rack. The rodeo cheesesteak was cooked to perfection and the fries were bussin'. They promptly served our family of eight with a smile. This place will be a frequent stop for me and the boys. read more

Good sandwiches and home town feel! Stop here on your way out or into Ellensburg for a quick bite.

This place is hands down the best place to eat in Ellensburg or Kittitas. I've had Phillys in Philly and I'd rather eat this than a Gino's. Great selection of food. Awesome quality and amazing portions. Family owned so it's not a chain that you're supporting, it's a local family supporting local jobs. Do not miss this place. I've driven from Seattle to get food from here and it was worth the drive. read more

just heard about this place and decided to give a try. We weren't disappointed. The owners (husband and wife team) are very nice, and their food was really good. My wife had the cheesesteak, I had the Nonna, and we split some fries. Everything was delicious, and we will be back read more
