Yeah, no BS review here. Classic philly cheesesteak that leaves you wanting more. Don't make the mistake of ordering a 6"--you'll regret not having more to eat by the time you're done. Give this place a try as soon as you can. read more

Fred's offers some great cheesesteaks! They have a few other items like hamburgers and eggrolls, but I was here for cheesesteaks! It was easy to find and plenty of parking during lunch hour! The staff was exceptionally friendly! Counter staff and cooks! The ambiance is full of photos of patrons and famous sports figures. The decor is inviting! I ordered a #7 with green peppers plus some fried pickles. All was great and not bad for the price! read more

Work visit from out of town and bam!! Was recommended this spot close to work. Super friendly, cool cats that welcomed me in and gave me some great recommendations. And the cheesesteak, beat I can remember eating! Now I haven't been to Philly in a couple decades but this is how I would imagine the best Geno has to offer. I got a #25, added Cajun cheese and jalapeños. So good!! The place was a cool little corner spot. Bigger in inside. With cool Philly photos and decor. And again the people were really cool. Thanks team! read more

Our first time to visit. Friendly and efficient. Pretty good burger (just a bit too salty for me) and hubby's April burger was good. He added bacon, lettuce, and tomatoes. The sweet potato fries too were very good. It has a surprise element, lightly covered with sugar and I thought I could taste a hint of cinnamon. These were very hot and fresh. Fries were crunchy with a soft center. They were steady busy. We will be back! read more

Hands down best cheesesteak. The cheesesteak itself is amazing, but the house sauce is next level!!! The fries are solid and we also had the fried pickles, which were tasty. The staff were also friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Have driven past this place for a couple of years, decided to try it today. Waited 20 mins for my order. "I called your number." I'm sure you did but I was sitting up front near the register and didn't hear a thing. Asked for money back and got it. Never anything about "how can we make this right?" I was just a bump in the process. Will not be back. read more

First time at this location. Ordered the wings cuz Im not a cheesesteak fan. THEY WERE AMAZING!!! JMO I will take those wings over Bdub and wingstop!! Dont believe me? Go try them!!!!! read more

This is my first time experiencing this establishment. I called in my order and person that took my order was professional and made sure she understood what I wanted. Upon entrance I was greeeted pleasantly and checked out efficiently. Great flavor reminds me of home with the rolls and plenty of meat and sauce only negative is: there was not enough cheese. French fries were prepared and seasoned well. Did take out cannot comment on atmosphere. My food was still warm enough to enjoy' One thing I know is I will return and request extra cheese. read more

Fred's is a great spot for a cheesesteak. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and in my opinion the prices are very reasonable for what you get. My favorite is the mushroom steak with provolone, and don't sleep on their house sauce. I'm not sure what's in it but it goes great with their sammies. read more

I don't believe there is a single sub that is disappointing at Fred's! Now on the other hand my 11 year old grandson (who is picky) ate my sub but not his, so I don't count his review. My wife loves the Philly steak egg rolls. Your front end people are awesome, and so is your food! read more

Dr. J sandwich! Always delicious. Try the special sauce. It's amazing and addictive. Only downside is the wall decor (Eagles) is offensive to us Cowboy fans. Otherwise, it's the best cheesesteak in the Metroplex. read more

The food was very fresh and seasoned really well! Definitely coming back like the cook said I would. I got a chicken Philly and added a few things with a side of fried pickles. The inside was clean and smelled so good while they were cooking. Plus the staff is friendly and funny, just overall a great place to eat at. read more

Amazing sandwiches!!!! Amazing owner!!! Got the regular sandwich which was so yummy. The waffle fries were my favorite.

Place is dirty! Sandwiches are a bit greasy, I wish I could say something nice but...anyways you can find out for yourself!

Good food, very good cheese steaks and affordable, I got the rocky cheese steak and Parmesan fries both was on point.

10/10 definitively will/would come back here! There cheesesteaks are delicious and made so fresh. We got the 6in but it was way more than enough to fill me up. The have a cool "combo of the day" where they offer it as a combo meal! (With a side + drink) If you have cheese whiz instead of the normal cheese, you have to ask! read more

This place was the BOMB! When you walk in your mouth will immediately start salvating. We'll definitely come back so we can try the egg rolls that were displayed on the tv. Only thing I would recommend is putting the cheese for the cheese fries on the side because they didn't travel well. read more

After having lunch here with coworkers, I brought my husband who went to college in Philly. He said it was so authentic it brought him back to the good ole college days of playing ball and ordering Philly cheesesteaks with whiz. Then the pandemic hit and we didn't go back and kept reminding ourselves to. Service is great and good comes out piping hot and fresh. Restaurant is clean and got atmosphere. But the star of the show is the Philly cheesesteak get fries too read more

All food is made to order at Fred's. This is something that I love about Fred's because your food is always hot and fresh. For a tasty Philly cheesesteak Fred's is a must visit in Carrollton, TX. The cheeseburgers are good. The wings are great. I've never had any bad food from Fred's. They do have a large variety of food items so I recommend that you check the menu prior to arriving. Fred's is always busy so call your order in, and it will be ready upon arrival or close to it. Employees were wearing gloves and masks. They did require that the customers wear masks as well. Social distancing was being practiced during the visit. read more

This place really does have the best Phillys I've had in Texas. They are very family oriented with a down home feel. The ingredients are delicious and fresh, the meat is amazing and the cheese and bread ratio is perfect! I highly recommend Fred's for your Philly cravings. read more

Still the best Philly Cheesesteak in DFW. Every sandwich combo I have tried was delicious. Some great fries as well.

Awesome Philly cheesesteaks and very friendly team. This is the only place I'll get a cheesesteak!

I lived near a Fred's over a decade ago and it was good enough to spark an interest in cheesesteaks that still lingers today. I was happy to stumble upon the Carrollton location while I was out and was even happier to find to they still make a mean cheesesteak at a fair price. It's an unassuming, strip mall diner with a splash of flair from the metal plating and the Philly skyline wrapping the dining room but the reason to come here is their amazing food. I purchased the #2 6" Philly cheesesteak meal that comes with the Sandwich, fries, and a drink for just under $10 before a tip. The generic brand soda didn't do much for me (the mix tasted a bit off) but the cheesesteaks were as good as I remember and the fries were some of the better ones I've had anywhere is the last couple of months. When I was done with my cheesesteak, I really wanted another one but that might have been a bit much. I'll definitely splurge for the 10" next time though and go for one of the bottled Pepsi products instead of the fountain drink. They were doing good business right between lunch and dinner time so I doubt this place is much of a secret; however, If your a cheesesteak fan or looking for for somewhere to eat on your diet cheat day, I'd highly recommend checking out Fred's. It's good food, served fast, at a fair priced. What's not to love? read more

Wanted to try this place but it's cash only. That's really not feasible nowadays. We don't carry enough cash for a group of 8 to eat out.

So I stumbled across this place on accident and I thank God I did. The guy at the register wasn't really personable (he wasn't rude either) but the food was amazing! I ordered a mushroom cheesesteak, fire and honey fries, and cheesesteak fries. I ate the mushroom sandwich to "taste" it lol that's how good it was. Not salty. Not dry. All of it was perfect! Highly recommended read more

I love Fred's!!! My husband is from PA so I've had the famous cheesesteaks up there and I think Fred's is better! I got the shrimp poboy this time and it was the best one I've had in DFW. I'm from New Orleans so I have tried soo many in DFW trying to find one that will satisfy the craving. Fred's definitely did. The bread is delicious and I love all the sauces, i.e. hot sauce, house, mustard sauce. read more

One of the best cheesesteaks I've ever had! Came served right off of the grill and you have the ability to watch the cooks as they are making it which is cool factor. There is a lot to look at on the walls and has a welcoming vibe inside. The staff was very friendly and the service was prompt. I am not from this area so to me it seemed like a 'hole in the wall' place but did not disappoint! They also offer a lot of options on there menu so it is a good place for all kinds of eaters. read more

Fred's Downtown Philly has been on my bookmarked list for a while until now since we were close by, we might as well try it out! Walking in, you can tell it's a hole in the wall...it's a super small restaurant so don't expect a lot of tables to be available especially if they're busy and you need at least 4 seats. There's some tables available in the back of the restaurant (4 tables if 4 seats available. We came in about an hr before they closed and it started to get busy after we ordered. There was no table big enough to fit a family of four in the front so we found some towards the back of the restaurant. The lights were off in the back but we figured, might as well sit down since we ordered to eat at the restaurant instead of take out. The cook then told us that these tables were closed which was why the lights are off and we explained to him that there was no where else for us to sit. They don't close for another hour, are busy and don't have enough tables upfront available for a family, so why are the lights off? I guess we are supposed to order our food to-go if you come in an hr before closing? Either way, the cook let us stay at the table in the back once he saw how busy they were. As you can see, starting off the experience is already not so great...the table experience aside, when we got our food, I can say that it was pretty good! We devoured everything! The bread was pillowy soft and so much flavor in the Philly cheesesteak! My only complaints are that the fried pickles and the Cajun cheese fries were a bit salty and the fries were sitting out for a while before we got our food so it was not hot. Next time, I would just try another side. It's much better to eat everything while you're there so that you can get it hot and fresh b/c it won't be the same by the time you eat it at home. It's too bad the restaurant is not any bigger. Overall, the Philly cheesesteak sandwiches are worth the trip. We'd go here again if we're ever nearby. read more

Y'all when I say BOMB, I mean BOMB! This place definitely not for the bougie. dont go here expecting a nice cute Philly; its real deal Philly styyle. A lil greasy and delicious af. I got the #16 & my bf got the #22 and we have been talking about it for 4 Days straight so we going back again today lolz. It's not a fancy place at all. Perfect for an inexpensive date or something, very casual Ambiance. The guy at the register was tall with long hair, very nice and very patient while we decided what to get since it was our first time. If you lookinng for cute go to jersey mikess where you won't get ya money worth. But if you looking for authentic, good af, & satisfying and FRESH (it was literally straight off the grill), go here. We will definitely be regulars lols Btw: fRies are good but I wish they gave more but their signature hot sauce is delicious read more

Placed a pickup order while I was down the street running an errand. Cashier told me it would be 15-20 minutes. Arrived an additional 5 minutes afterwards and the food was not ready. I walked in, stated my pick up name and paid. I asked for a water cup and she offered me the standard little small plastic cup. I declined and asked to pay for a regular cup about the same size for $2. There were 2 guys in the back that got their orders and another guy who waited almost as long for his pick up order. The cashier asked me my pick up name again which made me wonder about my order and if they had even started it. After that I sat for an additional 10 minutes which made my pick up order a wait of 40 minutes. Not to mention, a fry was left off. The food slaps but service was poor and they just didn't seem to care at all. read more
