Something must be wrong, I can't possibly be the first to review this location. In fact I'm sure I did a few years ago (what's going on Yelp?).
This is a sort of odd Cheesestake, it's not made the traditional way that most Philly's are made so I can't compare it to that, it's a completely different sandwich. But don't let that bother you, it's still a good sandwich.
Service is always friendly and they seem to care that you are satisfied which is nice for a mall food court choice.
There is also an interesting mix of options, chicken Philly's, bourbon sauce, etc., and really good fries.
So what is different? They put things on their sandwich that no self-respecting Philly or even New York deli would ever do to a traditional sandwich. But so what? There are no rules, you can make whatever you want, and whatever people will buy. In their case, they add lettuce, mayo, tomato, and pickles and don't use that nasty cheese sauce that some cheesesteaks have on them.
The meat is ok, I always order with extra meat. If I had one complaint it would be that most cheesesteaks are stuffed with chopped and well-seasoned meat. These are more like Steakum meat but still good in their own right.
On the side, there are hot sauces, seasonings, parmesan cheese, and vinegar to put on your fries or sandwiches.
Its also fun to watch them cook, they all hustle and are working hard to give you a good product, made fresh. read more
