    Charley's Cheesesteak Philly Cheesesteak
    Rebecca C.

    Charley's Cheesesteaks remind me of the good old days. I would choose Charley's Cheesesteaks sandwiches over Subways. They have tastier sandwiches and their service is better than Subways. They always have a line but what surprises me is that there's only 2 locations available to civilians since the other 2 locations are inside a military base. The one on Ala Moana inside the food court. It's definitely filled with lots of noises from so many customers looking to buy foods from a variety of restaurants. What's great is that they have a huge dinning space so you're always able to find a table and chair. I got Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. It looks simple but pack with flavors. I got it paired with their Cheese and Bacon Fries. It was sooo cheesy and bacon yummy!!! I forgot to take a picture but I got my meal paired with strawberry lemonade. It's sweet, tangy and a perfect combination to stimulate your tastebuds. Thank you for reading my review. Have a great weekend!

    Closer view of the KIMCHI FRIES
    Jackie K.

    I walked by Charleys Cheesesteaks at the Ala Moana Center (AMC) food court on the street level, with my walking buddy today. My buddy was picking up lunch at a nearby establishment for her mom. I walked around and I spied a "New Item" promotional sign at Charleys Cheesesteaks for Kimchi Fries. Hmmm. I really enjoyed the Wagyu Kimchi fries from Seoul Mix 2.0, in the Lanai food court at AMC, so I thought I should give it a try! I ordered the fries and waited a while for my order. I asked the employee who took my order if she tried it yet. She shrugged her shoulders. That should've been my first clue. When I picked up my order, I opened it to take a Quick Look. Please compare my photos with the one taken from Charleys Cheesesteaks website. The description is provided as well. It did not look good. It was like viewing an explosive volcano of goopy cheese sludge and sauce over fries. Look very carefully and you may observe what looks like diced onions, however, I think that's the kimchi. My walking buddy and I took a taste, as it was very hot and "fresh". Hard stop now! Yuck! It was sour tasting and the "cheese" did NOT taste like cheese. It was a very odd and off flavor sauce covering of the fries. It did not taste at all like kimchi and gochujang. I can't really adequately explain the flavor, other than it tasted like a sour tasting spicy sauce of liquified gochuchang, goopy "cheese", vinegar, salt, ketchup and onions? We both refused to eat anymore after our first taste. The fries were taken home for my hubby to try. He will usually try and eat anything I bring home. He tried it and after a bite , the entire container of kimchi fries met its end. Tossed into our rubbish can. I cannot recommend this "new item". Service: 3/5 stars Ambiance: 2/5 stars (Food court atmosphere and not very clean) Food: 1/5 stars

    Love how they load each sandwich with lots of meat, every bite is perfect. From the flavor to the service! Love how they make your order right In front of you. So if you're looking for a savory filled sub, this is the place to get it!!

    Oldschool Cheesteak
    CJ K.

    Got the Oldschool Cheesesteak sandwich. And dang let me just say that this is my favorite philly cheesteak sandwich I have had thus far!! Perfect amount of meat, cheese, and savory sauteed onions. They have options of a 6 inch, 9 inch, or a 12 inch sandwich. It's located in ala moana's food court and they have a kiosk next to the cashier if u want to customize and order on the side at your convenience. The only reason why I gave this place 4 stars instead of 5 is that parking at ala moana isnt the best. And I'd only be able to come here if I ever go to ala moana for errands/shopping (which is not that often) Please open up another store somewhere else on island :)

    Today I got to try the Large Philly Cheese Steak and it was very tasty & fresh. They cooked in right in front of me and they were so friendly and efficient.

    Friday night dinner at the Ala Moana food court led one of us to Charley's Cheesesteaks, and honestly, it was a bit of a letdown. The service was...lackluster. The employees weren't exactly rude, but they definitely weren't friendly. It felt like we were inconveniencing them, which isn't a great feeling. I get it, it was late on a Friday and they were probably tired, but customer service still matters. Then there's the price. Being in Ala Moana, we expected a bit of a markup, but the cost was surprisingly high for a single cheesesteak. It just felt overpriced. As for the sandwich itself? It was...fine. Nothing special. I've definitely had better cheesesteaks, and at that price, I was expecting a lot more. It was just an average sandwich, and that's disappointing.

    I haven't had a real cheesesteak in close to 5 years since moving here 2.5 years ago from LA so I thought I would try this place out. I tried the regular size kim chee cheesesteak combo, which was slightly under $20. I hate to say it but it wasn't anything remarkable. It was a star above anything from Subway. The sandwich roll was on the chewy side, like either it was not that fresh or it had been slightly microwaved to keep the sandwich hot. The flavors from the kim chee, cheese and beef were there but nothing to bring home about. I just finished it about 10 minutes ago and I honestly can't remember it enough that I have something to write about. The amount of food in the sandwich did not match what was shown on the sign advertising this limited item offering so that is a definite deterrent if I want a cheesesteak again next time. I was looking forward to the fries since they looked like thick cut fries. Although the fries were hot, they were bland and it seemed like it was cooked from "frozen" or "fresh frozen." Adding ketchup did not help it any. Hahaha! It's in the food court of Ala Moana so no need to write about that. The service was "meh." My order was called and the server didn't even give any napkins. She gave it only when asked. Like who works as a server and doesn't check something as easy as giving napkins when you know the food you're selling is a bunch of finger foods? Anyways, most places around aren't home runs when it comes to flavor so it's just middle of the road. I started giving it 3 stars but after thinking about the chewy bread, seemingly cooked from frozen fries, slightly below average customer service, and chintzy amount in the sandwich, I downgraded it to two stars.

    CHICKEN CALIFORNIA
    Amy B.

    The best, most comforting yet healthy food at the best price point in the entire Ala Moana main food court!! I love their sandwiches and their gourmet fries with cheese, ranch sauce, and bacon bits!! Very satisfying and delicious memorable!! Great staff and great vibe!!

    Meat to bread ratio

    $17 for a Philly that wasn't filled with the meat, peppers and extra mushrooms. More bread than anything.

    Chicken California sandwich, regular size. It had a lot of chicken. Messy to eat - get lots of napkins. Also got the bacon/cheese fries and regular fries. Along with the cheesesteak sandwich. My family inhaled their sandwiches before I could take a picture, along with the fries. The regular fries were a little dry. But I liked that they had the skin on.

    Chicken Teriyaki & Fries
    Jarod H.

    Five stars. Recommended. Always a good hot, fresh, and delicious sub sandwich at Charley's Cheesesteaks. I love the chicken breast subs, especially the teriyaki one. The chicken is grilled fresh on the grill, right in front of you. The sub is then made after that and served hot to you. The fries are made fresh and hot. It's a thicker cut fry, so it has a different texture to the thin fries at other fast food joints. It's good! All in all, if you want a hot fresh chicken sub and fries, Charley's is the place to be!

    I love this sandwich. They used to have menu of Jalapeño cheese steak sandwich but there is no menu now. But server told me, can add Jalapeños cooking with steak. Sounds good. Very very good service, and very efficient friendly service. I always love this place. Sandwich? Yes. Of course, so delicious fresh made, beef steak, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, pickles and jalapeños. French fries, freshly cooked, hot and crispy. I love this place. Price is not bad with quality of food and service. At work I shared with my team, they loved it too. I come here very often. I never get tired. I am addicted. Ha Ha Ha...

    Believe it or not! This was my very cheesesteak sandwich! I know, I know! Where have I been in a cave? I just never really thought of having one before because it just didn't seem all that great. Boy was I wrong LOL We had just arrived in Hawaii to help our daughter Leilah get checked into Hawaii Pacific University (Go Sharks) so we decided to head on over to the food court/market and grab a bite to eat. I am so glad that there are ample choices to pick from because I did not want to get stuck with Rice!! And many of you already know from following my journey that wifey loves her some rice! I was in food heaven! So what the heck let's just try a cheesesteak, why not? scanning the menu was when the bacon god's revealed the "Bacon Three Cheese with Fries!" Oh yes! Bacon and Cheese! How can you go wrong with that combo on a sandwich or a burger? It wasn't that busy so the food came out fast which was a real treat for an empty tum tum. I found wifey and Leilah already sitting down about to grub on... wait for it! Yep, you guessed it SOME DAWG GON RICE! Leilah had some kind of new vegetarian plate because she is now a pescatarian. Kids! I sat down with my beef and bacon with three kinds of cheese with no shame and feasted like a king. It was wonderful! Tender, juicy, and just what the bacon god's ordered! Okay, now I know. Love to all those in Philly! You have earned my respect. Thanks Charley for making me a believer. Pray, Eat, and LOVE! MORE BACON!!!! M&M

    Chicken Philly- get the beef, it's better!

    This burger absolutely hit the spot. Super juicy, packed with flavor, and exactly what you want…read morewhen you're hungry. Every bite hit all the right notes! If you're ever walking around and just craving a filling meal, this is it. This, and hit the beach for some sun and swim. I was the only one there, so the service was fast and enjoyed it quietly. Tables face the sidewalk so you'll get a nice breezy while eating. But around noon it'll get slightly busy. It's definitely on the greasy side, which might not be for everyone, but honestly that's part of what makes it so good. Just indulge from time to time.

    Debbie D was in Waikiki the same time I was, so after I walked over to where she was staying, I…read moretold her there was this place for lobster rolls on Kalakaua. However, they were closed on Mondays....sad face! So we just started walking. We found ourselves at Ala Moana East...LOL! Walking through it all, we reminisced about the old International Market Center. We started toward the Food Hall, and Debs said that Banzai Burger was good, so we went. The woman working was so nice! I ordered a Waimea burger which has two patties, cheese, sauteed onions, and bacon. It was good and came with some nice crispy fries. Deb ordered a child's meal with two little sliders and fries. We sat facing Kuhio and watched all the different people walking by. It was all very fun because some of them were funny to watch! It's interesting how some of the tourists will not venture outside of Waikiki and would only do so on a tour. Banzai does have some really cold Coronas, so I suggest coming here, sitting back, and watch the world go by! Mahalo Banzai!
