Decent food, the steak wasn't chopped and the grilled veggies were raw. Felt rushed to cook the food, but needed a little more time. There were a lot of young staff that may need a little more training. Friendly staff, the inside was ok, a little ran down. Good location. Ok ambiance, newer tables and chairs. read more

S S service was great. The food was awesome. The ambience is calm and cool. The prices are awesome! read more

Best cheese & bacon fries I've ever had. The cheese is actually melted like nacho cheese, not hard like a "melted" slice of cheese. The bacon is chopped into tiny pieces & are crispy. Great combo on fries. read more

Charleys Cheesesteaks - CHEESE & BACON FRIES - Fast Food Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Food was horrible, cheese steak tasted like frozen food. They had a two for one special going on for cheesesteak's and only finished half of one smh read more

Their food is good, but the box weighs more than the sandwich, usually get a good sub, but this time they skimmed on the meat, service great as always read more

Charlie's is good but they have changed and I didn't like the ideal of charging me .25 for no ice for my drink. I don't get ice to get more drink, I don't get it cause I don't want my drink water down and the drink is already cold but to charge me .25 because I am not getting ice is insane, it may not be a big deal to others but it's a big deal to me. Don't charge me for something I'm not purchasing read more

Was in the mood for a sandwich on Saturday night and found that Charleys is offering both takeout and delivery! We opted for takeout as I needed a little escape from the house. Their takeout situation is fully socially distant and organized. They have a roped off area out front with chalk lines to encourage socially distancing in line. They only allow one customer inside at a time. We were able to order online (right through the Yelp app) and then pick up. I ordered one of their chicken phillys (Chicken California). Their sandwiches come in small, regular, and large. I opted for the regular, which was plenty. The sandwich was pretty ho-hum. I wouldn't likely order one of their chicken phillys again. My son got their original philly cheese steak. I had a bite of that and found that to be much more flavorful. We all ordered their cheese fries which were good! They're made with regular cut fries and covered in just the right amount of cheese sauce. They also have a vareity of lemonades. My son opted for their strawberry lemonade and reported it to be tasty. Happy to have sandwich delivery and/or takeout options right now. A-ok! read more

I add no pickles but they putting pickles on the all 3 orders So is a big mistake because My son is allergic to the pickles. read more

Charleys Cheesesteaks - Fast Food Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I originally stopped at the Chinese place a couple doors down for lunch after seeing it and I had not had lunch. I walked in past the boarded up window and grabbed a menu and got on yelp to see what people think. 2 stars didn't look good so I walked over to the chain Philly Steak place because it had 4 stars. In my Yelp early days I kept alway from chains because I was a Snob and I only sought out local places, I stop everywhere now to be better rounded on Yelp so this place is in. The first time I stopped here I saw the lights on in the window but they were closed, the windows looked the same today and the door opened. Definitely not what I expected because the first thing I noticed was the high nice looking tables and smaller ones along walls with nice chairs, bar like and definitely not fast food chain. Vases with flowers on the tables, flat screens and dim track lighting. I was promptly greeted by a nice woman who guided me through food/order process which is order at the first window, Sm/Med/Lg, do you want grilled peppers/mushrooms/onions, mayo/lettuce/tomato, yes to all please, do you want to make it a meal, move down to the grill and watch them cook the Steak and assemble it. I ordered the Philly with Steak and fully dressed which looked pretty good, melty cheesy hot off the grill steak cooked to order on a toasted bun with fresh veggies. Although its not an overly stuffed sandwich the Med was fine for me. The bread was fresh/soft/toasted which was perfect for all the hot/cold toppings. It was not bad and tasty with a steak taste and not one of those phillys where they use the roast beef from the beef sandwich and call it a Philly. Overall for a chain I can't rip them for anything because the service was good and they have a decent cooked to order fresh sandwich for a chain, the slightly upscale interior for a chain doesn't hurt either, Yah I'm a fan. read more

Great price awesome taste and the variety is great definitely will go there again for some cheap bites

The food was pretty cold when it was delivered and poorly put together. Probably wouldn't order again if we are ever in the area in the future. They did get it out in a timely manner however. read more

As a woman of the Midwest, this was my first time coming to "Charleys Philly Steaks" due to apprehension caused by me wondering about it's origin of "Philly" (I do not feel comfortable with big cities like this ). But it was in Wisconsin so I felt comfortable. I also wondered about how their steaks taste, but was surprised to see a steak sandwich menu instead. At first I was disappointed because I wanted a "homemade" steak type of dinner without making it, but after eating... all I can say is.... WOW!!! The meat in my sandwich was SO THIN but the taste and texture was AMAZING. Wow. The food practically melted into my tongue. French fries and large beverage accompanied well. I WILL COME AGAIN! read more

Horrible experience! Ordered via DoorDash. Store employee and driver tried to scam me out of money. They claimed my order was picked up an hour prior by a different driver, but I had only placed my order 45 minutes before my driver contacted me with this 'issue'. The driver told me that I could talk to the store employee to confirm this story If I wanted to. Then he suggested that I cancel my DoorDash order and place my order again direc with him and if I gave him gas money, that he's deliver it to me. I contacted DoorDash support, got my money back plus more $$ for my troubles. I will never order from here or Breakfast Club (the restaurant name they sell breakfast food under) ever again. read more

This place on south 27th st is a bit dirty and thePhilly Cheese Steaks Combos Are filled with hardly no meat and the fries are very small portion. Even though you're paying almost $15 for the large combo . You still get stiffed on food . Smh the Brookfield mall location is better. Friendly staff and not rude service like on 27th st. Very disappointed. Because it used to be a very nice place to eat. read more

Service was extremely quick. Women working the register was sweet and greeted us immediately. The staff on the grill line worked well together, as a team to get the food out during a rush as quickly as possible. Super impressed with the service here. Food was hot and fresh. read more

They will not give you a refill on your soda due to Covid but they will pack 30 people waiting in line in a 200 square-foot building and completely disregard social distancing, mask wearing and all other Covid regulations. Worst service I've ever had at a quick serve restaurant. read more

This place offers savory subs at the mall's food court area. Their prices are average compared to the other vendors at the food court. The sandwiches, specially the Philly Cheese Steak and the CAlifornia Chicken are very good as well as their fries. They usually don't offer combos that include the beverage, although, if you do a survey they offer a beverage and fries the next time you get a sub. read more

This place has the best cheesesteaks in the entire city of Milwaukee. While there are many great tasting cheese steak restaurants in town, none can compare to the taste, quality, and service that is provided by Charlie's Cheesesteaks. my favorite is the Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich with loaded fries. You will love this place. I wish there were more in town. read more

The restaurant holds about 30 people. The tables have flowers on them and are made of thick wood. The three of us got reg Phillys and gourmet frys with drinks for about $40 a little high I think. The Phillys were good but could have options for some added punch. The gourmet frys were tasty they have three types. The lemonade had fruit poured in tasted good. read more

The food here is absolutely fantastic and the staff is friendly and helpful, especially during these confusing times we're in with covid 19. My order was done in minutes and the restaurant is nice and clean. They have a good system for keeping people 6 feet apart and separated too!! read more

Gone 3 times in the last few weeks. Every time has been great. I had a special order and they got it right! Have not ate inside but it looks ok. I do think they can clean the Windows. I don't think it's in the best area but we have no choice since we needed to stay by the hospital. read more

I've been coming to this location since it opened in the early 2000's. I loved the sandwiches, but watched the store cleanliness and customer service quickly deteriorate. I'll gladly say that the new owners have made an excellent transition with this location. Same great sandwiches, only now the store is clean again and the employees are friendly and inviting. I have tried nearly every sandwich and they are all good. I like the BBQ cheese steak best! Always have to combo any sandwich with cheese & bacon fries!! With the new ownership and recent changes, I would once again recommend this place to anyone. read more

The owner is always cheerful & manning the grill. The fries are a must as they are always fresh & then covered in seasoning salt! My boyfriend loves the Chicken Philly, I get the Regular Philly (Onion, Green Pep, Mushroom, cheese) Steak. The establishment is always Clean!! The owner is on top of making sure the food prep, tables even the floor is clean & welcoming. Everything is freshly prepared in front of you - even the bun toasted. My one disappointment was their recent change from a standard of Provolone to White Cheddar !? Either way, its yummy, fresh & the owner is super great. Don't forget to get a punchcard. After 9 Sammy's you get one free. Also, they off 3 sizes Small 6 inch, Regular 9, & Large 12. Salads are yummy too. Veggie lover friendly too. The one negative is the parking lot sucks. Park on the street off Ohio ave and walk a block. read more

Charleys Cheesesteaks - Philly Steak Deluxe with Jalapeños lettuce & mayo ! - Fast Food Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Since my last visit in which I left a bad review the owner contacted me with my concerns and really took them into consideration.(most owners would not do this). Food is up to par as I remember if not better. The staff is really friendly and social now. Music and the new tv both play family safe media which a a big thing for me last time as I was with my 7 yr old. Overall really great place again I would recommend to anyone and prefer this over that chubbys cheese stakes any day of the week. Have been back mutiple times since then. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! read more

Charleys Cheesesteaks - Smells good,fresh and hot off the grill pretty fast! - Fast Food Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I rarely write up bad reviews but this was such an awful experience. I had an online order and went inside to pick it up. There was a line of 5+ people and I really did not think I had to wait next in line for an order I made online, since it's supposed to be made by a certain time and I would just be picking up? The only "pick up" window they had was for uber eats and door dash, I tried waiting there to see if anyone would attend me and nobody even looked my way and I was there for at least ten minutes. Another customer came in (without a mask) and who I'm assuming was the manager, came right up to the window I was at (noticed her but not me?) and asked her to please wear a mask. She didn't have one and he then proceeded to hand her one literally RIGHT past me and walked away STILL not even acknowledging me. At this point, I'm fed up, I go to the end of the counter where the cooks are and let a guy know I have a pick up. He then tells me I have to go back to the register. I just want to cancel my order at this point, so I get to the back of the line defeated and the cook comes up to the girl at the register who finally somehow notices me and proceeds to give me my order. After all that nightmare of customer service, I finally leave and drive off and... they forgot my garlic parmesan fries. I was furious and I don't think I'll come back here again. read more

I always order the 3cheese bacon, it's my favorite. The staff is always friendly and I am always satisfied with the food and service! They make sure everything is nice and clean. read more

Stopped to do business at another store in the strip mall where this Charley's is located. Other store needed some time to finalize the order i placed. Ultimately I Decided to walk over to Charleys and order a sandwich. Mask in hand due to the Covid rules and prepared to abide by the rules. As i get closer i notice they have a couple tables moved outside on the front walk way and also some parking spots roped off... seemed odd since it was literally pouring down rain at the time... get to the door and i realize they are not letting anyone inside the building at all, not to place their orders nor is dine in even with masks handy an option. I certainly was not about to eat my sandwich outside on the sidewalk in a rainstorm because this location doesn't have adequate plans in place for spur of the moment customers stopping in. I get the covid thing but your restrictions are over the top ridiculous so i took my business elsewhere. Maybe ill try again someday if a better plan is put in place. this doesn't seem to be happening at most other restaurants around the area. read more

THIS IS THE BEST PLACE TO GET A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK IN MILWAUKEE. Now im a realist ive had some pretty amazing cheesesteak once upon a time i thought charlie had the best... Then i went to philidelphia.. HOWEVER! They are NOWHERE near bad! And they are definitely the best place to go! Soft bread fresh meat and ingredients, extremely friendly staff and a punch cars. Charlies just makes me feel like they care! Defintely try the cheese fries and signature lemonades. (The ones where they mix in the strawberries!!) read more

Best Philly Cheese Steaks in town. I had the Jalapeño Cheese Steak. Generous portion of meat, smothered in cheese, magnificent. Bread is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and the service quick. Parking is a bit dicey, but not impossible. Great place, I'll be back. read more

When u see a picture of a sandwich and yours never looks that way is definitely not this place! What it looks like is what U get! Philly and a chicken philly- very good. Bread fresh. Loaded fries- really loaded- every fry covered with topping! Strawberry lemonade great with fresh fruit! Service was smiley and helpful. Definitely will be back! read more

Was just okay. If I went there again, would ask for double cheese and hold the mayo. This is Wisconsin! Don't hold back on the cheese!

Charley's Is my absolute favorite Cheesesteak place in Milwaukee. I live on the south side in Bay View and every time I am super hungry, I go to Charley's and get a Bacon 3 cheese steak sandwich and an order of Chili cheese fries. The fries are Gourmet and are very big. It's an awesome place to just relax and eat without any bother. They just renovated the place like a year ago and it's only gotten better. After I finish eating at Charley's, I head over to world famous Leon's across the street for a vanilla cone. -Kahuna read more
