I ended up at Corleone's Cheesesteaks in Phoenix, AZ purely out of necessity and mild desperation. I was staying in the most random part of town, and for reasons I still don't understand, my hotel did not have a real restaurant. Well... it technically did, but it was a BBQ spot and I just wasn't in the mood. So, naturally, I turned to Yelp like the modern traveler I am. After scrolling through nearby options, nothing really spoke to me... except cheesesteaks. And once that idea entered my brain, there was no turning back. I immediately thought, "Heck yeah, I'm in." Keys were grabbed. Car was started. Mission accepted. When I arrived, I noticed it was a smaller shop, but that's usually a good sign. I walked in and was immediately distracted by the pizzas displayed in the window and the massive pizza oven in the back, very promising. Then I checked out the menu and locked in my order: a regular cheesesteak with Whiz, onions, and green peppers, plus a side of fries. Simple. Classic. Correct. The fries came out first, and let me tell you, hot, crispy, and exactly what fries should be. No soggy nonsense here. Then came the cheesesteak. I asked the manager for some pepperoncini's, and instead of just handing me a few, he pointed me to this full-on condiment bar. I'm talking pepperoncini's, pickles, and a whole lineup of extras. A choose-your-own-adventure, but for sandwiches. Loved it. The cheesesteak itself was really good, flavorful, satisfying, and hit the spot perfectly. Paired with those fries, it was exactly what I needed after a long day of travel and questionable hotel choices. I will say the service was not that great and not very friendly. I felt like I was imposing on them when I walked in to the time I left. Perhaps they were all having a "moment" that day. Bottom line: great cheesesteaks, excellent fries, and zero regrets. If you find yourself in the area and craving something hearty and comforting, Corleone's will not disappoint. read more

I love cheese steaks, so had to check this spot out. They also sell pizza by the slice. I got the original. Has whiz and grilled onions. Flavor was good, it could have used more onions and definitely more cheese. Bread was super soft, not sure if they are made in-house or out sourced. Fries were really good. For the cheesesteak, fries and a drink was $20 and some change. I will go again but I'll be sure to have them add more cheese. read more

Love this place. I order cheesesteaks almost twice a month.. (Dont tell my personal trainer) They have a nice BOGO on Tuesday's. At this point I think they know me by first name. Being from the east coast I always looking for foods that remind me of home. Cheesesteaks are very authentic. They are located in a shopping mall with plenty of food options just in case your friends want something else but its worth the drive and the wait. Calling in advance is best. Affordable prices , good quality and great service. read more

Meh. Bread is sometimes good and sometimes bad; typically undercooked). Love the sandwich generally, but $17 is way too much to charge for this sandwich. Only day to get one smartly is when they have a BOGO day. Disappointed in their commitment to customers. read more

I've never been to Philly but I'm pretty sure I was transported when I had my cheesesteak "wit onions n wiz" You order at the register and then wait for the hoagie dogs to go to town on the griddle. It's the type of place where you don't go for the cutesy photo op. They get the job done and they do it well. Can't wait to come back! read more

Friends, I was in the mood for a hot crisp sandwich, so I decided to give Corleone's a try for this!! I have had the pizza here before and it's been pretty good. Walked in, smells great!!! You can smell the bake of hot Pizza combined with the grilled in action creating some appetizing food. I opted for "The Original" sandwich, toasted with Fries. I was very impressed with the size, the crisp, and the flavor. The sandwich is LOADED with cheesy steak and the fries hot and crisp. I have to say friends, CHEF's KISS!!! My picture doesn't capture the perfectness of this!! Enjoy friends!!! read more

First time here and I enjoyed it! I got the little Joey and it was tasty. The meat was cooked well, not too fatty, and the amount of provolone was perfect. We went after a work event at the battle room show and they took good care of all 7 of us! Definitely will need to stop in next time we're in the area and need a bite :) read more

Im from outside of Philly and when I moved to Phoenix 18 years ago this place made me feel a little like home. Sadly I was disappointed tonight when I got the meatball parm and Italian Hoagie. The Italian was more bread than anything else. It used to be so stuffed with meat and toppings. Not worth the money. Very sad because it was one of favorites! Terrible representation of a Philly Italian hoagie. read more

The worse ever. Being from NY & knowing what a real Philly Cheesestake looks .& taste like, this is not the place to go to st all. Very expensive & disgusting. Not worth the drive, they also have people parking in the handicap with no handicap plaque or license. read more

We ordered the Italian and the meatball both were great! I like eating the Italian and adding pepperoncini's. I am going to come back to try the pizza it looks yummy. The restaurant itself needs a little TLC so don't expect one of those modern moody places. This is a boys joint! Football, baseball memes, and cheez whiz. If you don't like it get outta town lol (or order to go because the food if good lol) read more

Became a regular when they opened. Parking It's the reason for my four star. Always a challenge to find parking. It is located in a busy strip mall with shared parking. Restaurant Ambience is a cross between Italian decor and Philadelphia deli sub shop. They serve Pizza by the slice and and the best Cheese Stake subs outside of Philly. My favorite is the Original Cheese Stake. Stake, cheese Wiz, with sautéed onions & peppers. Make sure you grab extra napkins . Order line moves you to the grill as you watch you or prepared. Seating Booth, table and window bar stool seating. If you love Cheese Stakes you need to stop in and give them a try! $/$$ read more

Cheesesteaks are great, the pizza is good also and the guys that work there are awesome also! Def recommend.

I'm here on BOGO Tuesday and got a Cheesesteak without and provolone cheese and the second one the same way. Great service friendly and helpful. Nice easy place to grab a sandwich. They have TV with sports on. So it ok. read more

Here's the deal. We went here, prices were not reflective of the website. The lady made our food wrong, ONIONS.... The first sandwich looked huge. Then she glared at the order taker and remade our sandwich this time 1/3 the size and STILL WRONG. This time no cheese. Give me a break, 16+ for bread. No thanks read more

So disappointing! My family was excited to try a new place today but this place was not worth it! Ordered the originals to try and added bell pepper to mine. Onions and peppers were barely there. Meat wasn't super flavorful. Cheese and bread were the best part of the sandwich. Fries weren't hot and there weren't many people there so would've expected our food being fresher. My daughter got cheese fries and they were soggy and not hot. She didn't finish them. She decided to try a piece of pizza and it was horrible. No flavor. She didn't finish that either. Waste of time and money. We won't be back and I would not recommend it! read more

Always a hit! The rocky/ Philly theme is so cool, the food is always amazing. Love the whiz wit(add American cheese). And the hoagies are always good to take home for the next day! The service is always great too! read more

Workers here are friendly. This store brings in more business than Chipotle on this block! Id never been here before but they have outdoor seating and they were kind enough to allow me to sit outside to eat something from somewhere else. Well good thing they did because during the time I was sitting there on a non peak dining time, every person walked up to corleones! I had no idea this place so busy all the time had they not let me sit outside that day. Im now a regular at this location and everyone is nice. The food smells can be smelled outside and they are delicious. read more

Moved from Pennsylvania 3 years ago. This was the only cheesesteak that hasn't disappointed me. I knew it was going to be delicious and authentic before my 1st bite just by looking at it read more

Staff is often rude, they don't answer their phone or answer and hang up. Also gets orders wrong. Too bad because it's a good sandwich.

Hey, if you want a cheesesteak go to Corleones, the boys work hard and their cheesesteaks prove it! I don't know what Philadelphia has to do with cheese sticks, but do you know the best damn things Phoenix! Get a double meat with whiz and then load up on hot, sweet and cherry peppers boom you're set. You'll know you were hungry if you can eat all of that and if not, it is just as good tomorrow. Don't forget about their slices either they got nice pie big wedges, thin crust . Boom your set. Seriously. They are great! read more

I used to lobee this place. Whole fresh pizzas are good, just got 2 slices burned to ish, won't be coming back for a while, smh.

If you're in Phoenix, Corleone's is one of the most famous spots to grab a cheesesteak. I ordered the original cheesesteak with Whiz and onions--arguably the best way to have it. The first thing you notice is the presentation: a fresh, crusty Italian roll packed with thinly sliced ribeye and oozing with melted Cheese Whiz. The sandwich is tightly wrapped, keeping everything together without getting overly soggy. The bread is a standout--crispy on the outside and soft inside, holding up well against the juicy steak. The ribeye is thinly sliced and cooked on a flat-top grill, giving it that signature Philly-style texture. The Cheese Whiz adds a creamy, salty punch that blends well with the beef, while the onions bring just the right amount of sweetness. Corleone's is all about the experience--it's an iconic spot with a strong Philly vibe. Corleone's is still a must-try for the history and atmosphere alone. read more

Always great service and quick not to mention the Piazza is always fresh and good 5 stars

AhhhMAZing!!! Wow!! My husband and I went and tried Five Guys next door. Did not even know that this place existed 5 guys was completely dead at noon. Greasy and very disappointing. While there we kept seeing customer after customer walk into Corleones. We decided to try it. Thank you for not disappointing!! What a wonderful Philly steak sub and pizza. Employees were patient as I stumbled through my first order- food was delicious. We will return! read more

Quite possibly one of the worst sandwiches I have ever gotten. I was told the onions were grilled. There were some raw onions sprinkled on top of the sandwich. The bread was actually cold as if it had been refrigerated. The sandwich was seriously bland. I took 3 bites and told myself, I can't eat this. This sandwich was seriously an embarrassment to the cheesesteak world. The bag of Lay's chips and the Coke were pretty good...so there's that. The restaurant seems to be running to the light. It was dark inside, I guess to hide the flaws in the restaurant. The bench seats had giant rips. It did not seem clean. So surprised in myself that I sat down there and tried to eat. read more

Me and a buddy of mine were there Thursday night for the first time. The cheese steak was delicious and the fries were crisp and great.

Place is not as good as it once was just bland i ordered the wit wiz and it just didnt hit the spot like other times idk what it was the over cooked steak or the lack of seasoning the where lost in the sauce most likely my last time going back to Corleone's read more

Best cheesesteak! I get it Maryland style, which is on their menu as The Little Joey.

This is a fab find! Don't know how long it's been around but I saw on my Go Gilbert FB group that people were talking about the best authentic Philly in town and this place came up. I've been twice since! Food is fresh and hot! U can build ur own sandwich or order off their pre suggested menu. The bread is AMAZING!!! N They have slices too! read more

I have not had a Philly cheesesteak in years! While watching a Utube video in Philadelphia I suddenly got a craving for one. To be fair I used Uber eats so I can't speak directly to the service or ambiance. Ordered what I believe is the standard WHIZ I usually never eat fake processed cheese but somehow on a cheesesteak it pairs nice for a cheat day! I went big and got an additional side of cheese and added mushrooms to the onion beef mix. Their steak is chopped which I prefer and holy cow! I got the standard size and it was two meals! Meat was so juicy and melted in your mouth mushrooms paired perfectly with it and even the half reheated the next day for lunch still tender and juicy! Got the onion rings and they were perfectly crispy but there wasn't a lot of onion in it still had a good onion ish flavor....when the craving hits again I will for sure be back! read more

That's my spot. Corleone's comes THE closest to what I remember about growing up in Philly. Their cheesesteaks and hoagies are the best I can find in the Valley. No long wait for your order, plenty of memorabilia to look at while you wait and also a good place to sit in and enjoy. This jawn is my definite go-to. read more

Best Best Service, Love the Manager, First Class Service, first class Phili Cheesesteak!!

Before I even saw my cheesesteak I knew it was bomb shit from the sign I saw hanging up titled "20 reasons you know you're from Philly. Coming from back east Corleon's has been my go to for cheesesteaks, FORGETABOUTIT read more

I stopped in for a sandwich and slice. I had a coupon for a free birthday sandwich which was a my motivation. The staff was super friendly and fast and my food hot and delicious. Thank for a great lunch! read more

So I ordered a large meatball sub with Provalone cheese. I order from there often!.. My son picked it up, the bread was hard and black. Called, they said "were are sorry and will give a credit on your next sandwich". Took our phone number.. Ok, so today I go in looking for the credit and a sandwich. " Oh we don't have anything in computer ". Bottom line, they WOULD NOT honor the credit. I will never order from them ever again. Bad business practice for sure! read more

During this crazy pandemic, it has been easy to go stir crazy but Corleones has made it much easier during these crazy times. Whenever it's cheat day, our go to cheat meal is the cheesesteaks, pizza and amazing French fries! I don't know what it is about the fries, but they are perfectly crispy, seasoned well and taste so good! Whenever my friends and I crave fries, we want them from C's! Also, the Pizza?! It's a very, large, thin crust slice and it has a great sauce to cheese ratio. I usually need toppings on my pizza to make it better but here, even the simple is so well done. Most importantly, I haven't gotten out much in 2020 and 2021, so I rely a lot on delivery services. You'd think a cheesy cheesesteak would be soggy by the time it gets to you - nope! I love how when I order from C's everything taste just as I expect it. I realize as I'm writing this I'm craving it now, might need to get some tonight! read more

The hubs is from Philly and wanted a cheesesteak. My thought was good luck! You aren't going to find one that's good. We have been to a couple different places and they were definitely below average. So when he ordered from here I wasn't expecting anything good. However, I'm glad that he found this place. It's a solid place. Glad he found this place so he can get his fix before we go to Philly. read more

Haven't been here in years and we were craving a cheesesteak so made our way to corleones. The food was good not great. I would recommend adding extra cheese if you are getting provolone as you could barely tell there was cheese in the sandwich. Overall it was lacking flavor which is why I'm giving it 3 stars. The service was great. Both the gentleman working were very friendly so not sure why people have had a bad experience on that front. Overall i don't think the price point is worth it but maybe if i got the cheese wiz i would feel differently. read more

Walked in today to the cashier's eyes were tweaking. He kind of ignored me and was out of it so I just walked back out. Go to Capriottis.
