This place rules! Very nice staff, we ordered quick. It took a little for food to come out, but it was super fresh when it did. Inside is nothing special, but the food is. Very, VERY good wraps. We had the chicken Caesar wrap which was great, and the Kansas City BBQ wrap which was fantastic. So good! read more

Blue Cactus Grill - Breakfast quesadillas - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

I have been coming here for years and have tried almost everything on the menu. My all time favorites are the Cajun fries (delicious and a very generous portion), the life changer wrap is ..... life changing, and the traditional cheesesteak. They have something for everyone: salads, wraps, sandwiches, soup, burgers, lots of sides to choose from. Honestly, you can never go wrong coming here for breakfast or lunch. Service is fast, great, and the prices are fair! read more

Everything here is always delicious and fresh! The workers are all super kind and helpful. I love their cheese steaks and fried pickles. They also use some dill slaw or something similar, and it's my favorite! read more

Great people, great food, great experience every time I've been there.i wish I lived closer and could visit them more frequently

Come here just because the owner/workers are the friendliest people ever!! Walk in and you are immediately welcomed. They make sure you understand the menu if you've never been there before. They have new soups every week that rotates. And their sandwiches are AMAZING!!! I tried the GTFOH Sandwich and it was out of this world!! The sauce was delicious. The place does have tables but it's definitely a more grab and go type of stop. Very clean and very comfortable if you do want to dine in. read more

Blue Cactus Grill - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Got the super Mario wrap. Threw in the sin city sauce. It was 5/5 stars. And huge. Definitely recommend here as a great stop for lunch.

We stopped here totally randomly because we were in the area! Didn't look like much from the outside and nearly aborted as we wanted a sit down meal, but we gave it a shot and we are so glad that we did. We dined in for breakfast with my husband getting a big breakfast sandwich with homemade chili, bacon, eggs and cheese. All the things, it was huge! I got an omelette that had bacon AND sausage and American cheese. The food was made fresh and HOT and it was all so yummy!!! We want to return for lunch, there are so many homemade sauces I'd like to try. The staff there and the man preparing the food are so freaking nice and welcoming. Overall big win! My mouth is watering :) read more

Loved Blue Cactus Grill! Looks very unassuming from the outside but inside is full of magic. It has a deli feel to it with a counter and the grill in the back, couple tables to eat at inside. Service is great, gentlemen was passionate about working there, love to see that. My wife and I got breakfast, I had the Bronx Bomber on a hard roll containing bacon, egg, delicious homemade chili, potato which were fries, and cheese of course. Delicious sandwich, great size as a well. They have a Ron of house made sauces to try out as well and they bottle them if you like them so much, pretty amazing. My wife got the American omelet which had both bacon and sausage and we split an order of the home fries. They were the diced variety, wished they were slightly more crispy but still loved them and put sauce all over them. I have to get back to try them for lunch, this place rocks!! read more

Stopped here for road trip lunch randomly. Wow. Amazing food - had the chicken salad BLT and they grilled the bread, along with their amazing homemade potato chips (!), and everything was so fresh and absolutely delicious. Staff incredibly friendly and thoughtful. Sat outside in a surprisingly peaceful spot! Can see from the crowd early on a Sun how well loved this place is. read more

Great portions! Ordered a simple sandwich and caesar salad. Both were so so filling I couldn't even touch the sandwich until for dinner. The food is super tasty and I think for the prices it's completely reasonable. read more

Stopped in quickly to grab lunch and was pleasantly surprised at the size of my chopped chili. I'm ngl, I did eat while driving so I don't have a pic but it's well worth the $. Juan was very helpful at the counter and we held a great conversation while I waited for my food. The parking was a bit difficult read more

Blue Cactus Grill - the dining area of the restaurant - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Super friendly staff, was my first time. Just started working in Norwalk. Got a steak and cheese which was pretty good. Personally for me it was under seasoned. If I had added salt myself I'm sure I would have thought it was great. Got the house chips, props that they make their own. I won't say anything negative because of the effort. They also gave me a free cookie which they tried to give me free chips (I had already ordered the chips and they subbed for a cookie) going to have to still give them a great review because of the menu. Seems like they have so many great options. More soups during soup season. Love that they seem to care more than most places. All in all, great menu, great staff, clean environment. Love what they are doing. read more

This place is SO good I would make the hour drive for it again and again. We were recommended this spot during work travels and are currently beyond stuffed and still have leftovers! Staff was friendly and food was fresh and tasty. read more

Blue Cactus Grill - Fiesta Mac and cheese & veggie lovers "cheesesteak" - amazing, even the coleslaw! - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Love this place! Came back after several years, and it is still as good as it ever was. The staff is very welcoming and helpful, which is great because the menu is HUGE. I've had several sandwiches here, and they all are really good. If you like cheese steak, you can't go wrong here. Today I had Vic's famous, which has hot and sweet peppers, onions, chili and chipotle mayo on top of the steak and cheese. It is just amazing! Be prepared for an enormous sandwich. Half is more than enough, but it tastes so good you're going to eat both halves. The cactus slaw is always fresh, crispy and a perfect accompaniment to any of their sandwiches. I also really love the Cajun waffle fries, which are the best I've ever tasted anywhere. Come here, you won't be disappointed! read more

The food has a pretty good taste but inconsistent portions on the sandwiches. Sometimes adequate and other times less. Service can be slow and rude at times. Ambiance is not that important to them. Grab and go is better. read more

We came here while in CT for a homeschool field trip. Hubby really wanted a Philly cheesesteak and this place had really great reviews so we decided to check it out. I'm not gonna lie...when we pulled up, I had serious reservations. LOL. I checked Yelp to make sure we were in the right spot. We went in, checked out the menu and made our order. Hubby got his cheesesteak, babes had tendies n fries, and I got a few different items, including their AMAZING cactus slaw, jalapeño poppers and NE clam chowder. All of the food was really good. They're definitely a small but mighty shop. They have only a few tables so we ate our food in the car before heading back home. I'm happy I ordered extra slaw...it's sooooo good! read more

This food was super fresh and who I think was the owner was super nice. I asked if the chili was spicy because we wanted to order some for someone else he was willing to give me a taste. I thought that was really accommodating on his part. I was disappointed when my sandwich came out hot I thought I was ordering a cold sandwich. I'm biased against hot sandwiches (I think they eat messy) and the clam chowder ate heavy. Too much cream and potatoes for my taste but it did have good flavor. I also didn't enjoy eating the quesadilla that fell apart in my hands. I don't like messy food. I think they would greatly benefit from putting out those cheap clear plastic gloves. I know I would've enjoyed the meal much more. read more

I have come here very often as a local Norwalkian! This place never misses. Their take on classic burgers, breakfast sandwiches, and even their fries are elite. The staff is very nice and are patient with you since the menu is pretty vast! Inside is simple and clean. There's about 5 tables if you want to eat there but while we ate there you can see a lot of people come to pick up lunch or breakfast. We ordered the fries, deep fried burger and the breakfast sandwich with the jalapeños. As I said their food did not miss. This was delicious. One of my top spots in Norwalk. read more

Super friendly staff, huge menu and there's vegetarian/healthy choices! We tried the turkey chilli, wicked waffle fries and the tuna melt. We were happy with all our choices. read more

OK, I don't even know what I ate because I ordered it in the car and added all sorts of things which was a very nice option. And the add-ons were not expensive. After all the adding on the sandwich was $20 but it was insanely good and huge. Like insanely good and huge. One of the few places in the area, actually the only place that I could find, that offered a thinly sliced fried chicken cutlet sandwich. Definitely looking forward to going back. read more

Blue Cactus Grill - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

Nothing special - small hole in the wall deli that coworkers and myself tried. I got the Cobb salad and my tomatoes were forgotten . Coworker had one of The famous cheese steak sandwiches and it was dry. We also got cheese fries which were quite soggy. Not sure if this place is just having a rough Monday or what. We have heard such good thing about it so we may have to give it one more shot. Small amount of parking located right outside and they do take credit cards read more

Blue Cactus Grill - Sedona Cobb Salad - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

hands down THE BEST! made to order with fresh ingredients and GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE which is a lost art these days!

Service was amazing, food tasted homemade! Wish I lived closer so I could go more frequently!

I had stopped here for a quick weekday brunch. I had placed my order online on their website for an easy pickup. I had come to the restaurant before it was prepared so I had 5min or so to wait for the food. The place had a few people around but not too many for a 10am weekday. The cashier was joyful and seemed happy to be working when she handed me my order. I instantly rushed to the car to eat as I was hungry. The burrito itself seemed fairly average. It was rather large and I only could eat half for breakfast and saved the other half to eat some hours later. I had wished they had grilled or cooked the wrap a little as the ratio of bread to fillings felt more prominent than other burritos I've had. I'd consider going back but I'd be more likely to try a new place. read more

Best chicken in Norwalk. House chips are incredible. Good coffee. Stellar Service. I'd give 6 stars if I could. I like to get the Chipotle Chicken Quesadilla read more

Called for takeout, ordered cheesesteak sandwich, homemade potato chips, onion rings, fiesta Mac & cheese and clam chowder. The clam chowder was probably the best I've ever had (my husband & I split a large and were too full to eat any more) Next day the cheesesteak sandwich w/ provolone was delicious heated up and the onion rings went into air fryer and both delicious! Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

My boyfriend took me here because he loves it and i must say i will be back again. It's a very small spot that you would miss if you didn't know it was there. we ordered before-hand and went to pick it up: everything was ready very quickly. I was also able to make changes to my wrap and add toppings which was nice. The sin sauce was not what i was expecting but it was great. I was expecting a buffalo-ranch sauce and this was not that. It's a sweet but tangy sauce that hits the spot! the chicken was so crispy which i loved. Definitely coming back. read more

this place is awesome all around! first, the people are GREAT. super sweet, super friendly, patient, and so helpful. the menu is pretty big with a lot of great sounding options so i took some time choosing something but the man at the counter was super willing to let me take my time and even offered to give me recommendations if i was between options which was awesome. i ended up ordering the super mario chicken wrap and it was immaculate. all of the flavors went so well together and it was super loaded - i took half home! they gave us free homemade potato chips since we were first timers which i thought was a special touch and they were delicious. one of my favorite things though was the slaw - i am usually not a fan of cilantro lime but their cilantro lime slaw is AMAZING!!! it complimented the food so well and was tasty on its own :) this place is super cute to sit in and have a meal with some great vibes, you can tell they really care about what they do here. definitely recommend trying, you won't be disappointed! ps their banana pudding is absolutely divine - if you don't try it you're missing out seriously! read more

Awesome chopped cheese, ate it too fast to take a picture! The other sandwiches I saw them making looked amazing. Highly recommend 5 stars

What went well? Hmmm everything... the food here is so good, you'll be spoiled for any other sub/sandwiches. This place is an absolute gem. The service is also outstanding.... Always a highlight of our day.... The phoenix tuna sandwich is my go to but if you're in the mood for something hearty ... the cheesesteak (any one) is absolutely amazing. Fresh veggies, quality steak... fantastic sauces... do yourself a favor and grab something to eat here, you won't be disappointed. read more
