This has been our go to spot for cheesesteak since we moved to WA 8 years ago. We would drive from Federal Way or pay the surcharge for delivery but now we live in Tacoma and are more regular here. Essay ordering and reasonable wait times. We usually just pull up for pick up, it's a quaint and, usually, busy location. read more

Little house type of restaurant, always passed by it, but never stopped by. I didn't wait too long for the sandwich maybe 15 minutes and I did not order in advance. I tried my best, not to like this sandwich when I first looked at it, but every bite it just got better. Great job to the staff tonight, keep it up! Was he hesitant to stop by because of the reviews but I'm glad I did. I feel like it was better than the Lakewood location. read more

My son is on a constant quest for the perfect fast food. Together we comb the South Sound for burgers, deli sandwiches, fried chicken, and gyros. But he had never had a chopped cheese sandwich and was curious because he'd seen one on YouTube lol. Service was fine, location of on Tacoma Ave is noisy from traffic but there are some picnic tables. And the sandwich -- it was a chopped cheese -- exactly what he wanted. read more

Visiting a friend in Tacoma and we went here. It's all outdoors and I wasn't sure if I'd like any of the Philly's based on other reviews but I feel you can't go wrong with fish and chips! Service was not good for it being a pick up window -- I was surprised to say the least. Being put on hold while the person taking my order was visibly on their phone is actually crazy! I enjoy my food served hot and ready and this was perfect! The fish had smoke coming out of it when I split it open and it wasn't all batter so that was good! Overall good food, bad service, but quick and easy! read more

Solid, well filled, tasty cheesesteak. Fries were crispy, maybe a bit too salty. Banana pudding was solid, but I wish it had banana slices when it costs $8. Service took a little longer than expected, but the food was worth it and the servers were sweet. Mostly a takeout spot with very little seating. It's a bit expensive at about $20 for a combo, but for a well stuffed and tasty cheesesteak and solid fries, it's not the worst deal. read more

Go Philly - Original Cheesesteak - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

It is in a wonderful location. However, customer service is not the best. I came here at my husband 's request to pick up a lunch special. The 9.95 special before 1pm is a great motivator to run and get lunch. But they lose a couple of stars for just the service. I do not get it but maybe food service is high pressure. I recommend being a least a bit more cordial and kind of focus a little more on greeting customers and making sure the orders are correct. I ordered a lemon lime drink and Hi C for my son. We got our lemon lime drink but some mystery dark soda. Well the fries is a generous amount and the sandwich is a good amount of meat. Cheese is not too overwhelming so that is good. For good food and location service needs to improve. They have great potential and I honestly want them to stay around here. So I say to the lady at the window to just relax and smile a little bit more. And we love your sandwiches a lot. Thanks. read more

I'm generally very pleased with the Philly's from here. Fries are also good. Food is delivered quickly.

The Philly was dry! Not good when it's dry. I remember going here about a year and a half ago and wasn't happy with my Philly. I'm sure other stuff on the menu is good, but it's a Philly cheesesteak place. I remember the lady saying that they were extremely short staffed that night, so that might've contributed. Wont be going back for probably another year and a half. read more

I have been here dozens of times. Today, my daughter and I ordered a sandwich thru ubereats for us to pick up. We got there and as the food had not been started yet, we asked for cheese on half of it only. They said they don't do that which is a lie, because I have gotten it like that several times. Ten minutes after it should have been done, I went to check....not started. Asked the cheese request again, NO. When I got the food, about 15 minutes late, I asked to speak to the manager. The female clerk refused to get them because they were slammed. It is not an eat in place, only us and one person were waiting for food. She still refused to get him. I let her know Yelp and Ubereats would be hearing about this. I, in the past, have high recommended this place because of what they do for the community. After today, I will never return. read more

Nice little cheesesteak shack. Had the hot pastrami with sauerkraut and provalone with Cajun fries. Very good amount of meat. Kraut not too aggressive. Definitely a good sandwich if you are in the mood. But the Cajun fried were really good. The crisp on them was amazing and the oil didn't taste old. Seasoning was really flavorful and had a decent amount of spice to them. The service was very friendly and prompt. Fountain sodas available. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time, so you know it's made to order. I would totally eat here again next time I'm in town. read more

The food was amazing! The fries were fresh, you could tell that they were made to order. The cheese steak was very yummy, it was cheese, and I loved the meat to onion ratio. Service was great. I would only recommend that they wrap the sandwiches a little cleaner. There was cheese all over the outside of the paper and it got everywhere and we didn't get any napkins. Overall, I cannot wait to come back to Go Philly! read more

There's been a huge turnaround for the better at Go Philly. New staff have been friendly and accommodating, unlike the rudeness of the past. My food has been great, whether its the ultimate cheesesteak, smash burger (so juicy and tasty) or the chicken tenders, there is nothing bad on the menu. I tried the tenders for the first time today as part of the Tuesday special. They were BIG and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I asked for both blue cheese and Buffalo sauce and they gave me the second sauce at no charge. Service with a smile. Go Philly has won me back! read more

Meh. This used to be a shack and the pastrami was to die for. Now it's all pretty but the pastrami is meh. Still looking for great pastrami in Tacoma. Fries were good but no fry sauce. Should offer the Russian dressing. read more

A pretty solid cheesesteak if not a bit on the smaller side. The place is small and only has exterior seating. And it gets busy during meal times. I highly recommend ordering ahead. It's convenient and also lets you know an ETA and alerts you when your order is ready. The parking lot is also very small. All-in-all it seems to be the best cheesesteak in Tacoma, so we will be returning. read more

Conveniently located on Tacoma Ave S near downtown Tacoma, their menu has everything for everyone in the family. With outdoor seating only, we took our food home to eat. It was still nice and warm when we got home. We loved their original and deluxe cheesesteak! We also surprisingly loved their buffalo saucy cheesesteak and will be ordering that again next time! Garlic fries were delicious and their jumbo wings were nice and crunchy. Cashier was friendly and patient while we placed a large order. read more

What a disappointment. I ordered a chicken pepper steak with provolone cheese and mayo. And what I got was a complete disaster. Sure there's chicken cheese and peppers in there not too many peppers. But the amount of mayo in here dominates the sandwich. The bread immediately fell apart mushy from the second I took it out out of the wrapper and most of the rapper stuck to the sandwich. I opened it up as soon as I left the place and there was no time in between when I received the text message that my order was ready and me picking it up. I was excited to get my birthday reward cheesesteak and it was the first thing I haven't cooked for myself in a long time. And this only proves why I don't go out and spend money at locations because the food is unreliable. This is inedible because there is wrapper stuck to the sandwich and the bread is disgusting. I would have to take it all apart to salvage what isn't doused in mayo to put it on an English muffin because that's all I have. I didn't go to the store to do my grocery shopping I went out to buy myself a cheesesteak!! I tipped them, for the record. I even asked for light ice half of my container is ice. Imagine if I hadn't asked for light ice! Overall 100% disappointed and would not recommend. What happened?!?!! This place used to be great. read more

Not worth it. Got cheesesteak with whiz, barely any whiz, no flavor. Garlic fries were alright. Their special sauce is straight up 1000 island. Not very friendly either. Jersey mikes is better. read more

Well, I'd like to say this ahead of time.... The attitude from the counter person (woman) was HORRIBLE & the fact that she could not / did not hear correctly is not my issue. I asked if she got the order and it was acknowledged. This is why people don't return, horrible service is equal to loss revenue.... Because as a patron (since you opened , no less) I am seriously considering not returning. I also witnessed other people who had an issue with their orders. The front counter person... should always be attentive. That could be the reason why you have mistakes. Especially when you are not looking at your customer while they order. Passive listening is not active listening. And this is the 2nd issue I have had in last 5visits. I decided to report on Yelp because I was hung up on after asking for a refund..... last time I got the Wrong sandwich (orders were switched up) & was told I had to drive back to restaurant. I live in Seattle area .... I've met the owner in the earlier days of the business and he was great. The food was on point and the service was exceptional!!! Wish it could return to form.... read more

They are fast and courteous and prices are decent. The food is good. (I've only ever ordered the fish and chips.) They're consistent. You can't lose if you try it. This is in regards to their Tacoma location. read more

I came to pick up my DoorDash order and experienced a very frustrating situation. There are 8 other people who have been waiting 45 minutes to an hour. My order was apparently given away to someone else, and I ended up having to reorder and pay again using my personal card. Unfortunately, this is the second time this has happened to me at this location. Additionally, the music playing at the booth was filled with heavy profanity and was loud enough to be heard outside, which doesn't create a family-friendly or welcoming atmosphere. That said, I want to acknowledge that the employee working the window stayed calm, professional, and polite despite the chaos. He answered everyone's questions with a smile and didn't seem overwhelmed. My suggestions: * Let customers know upfront if the wait time will be long. * Fulfill orders in the order they are received. * Please monitor the music playing -- it should be appropriate for all audiences, especially in public settings. I hope this feedback helps improve the customer experience going forward. read more

Kind of disappointed with how long I waited and how my food turned out. I ordered the Swiss mushroom burger with fries. 45min wait finally got it. Burger bun was so soggy and hard to enjoy with everything falling apart. It was also super salty I could barely eat it without feeling it in my throat. Not worth coming back, plus the parking space is horrible. If the lot is full there's no way you could order and wait until a spot is available. All the hype for a bad experience read more

The meat on my cheesesteak was absolutely perfect, but it was a little light on the provolone if I'm being picky. My coworker said the same about her sandwich. The Buffalo chicken fries were to die for. I didn't know there was a drive thru pickup window until after I'd already walked inside to pick up my call-in order, so I'll take advantage of that window next time. It's so hard to get that cheesesteak meat just right, and they really did, plus I think it was on a legit Amoroso roll. I only have to cruise down to my Tacoma office a couple times a week, but I'm stoked to have this option nearby for an awesome east coast lunch when the craving hits (which is often). Yes, yes, and more yes! read more

Would you please get my order correct!! There's nothing more annoying than having a simple order screwed up. I ordered a mushroom cheesesteak ok...steak, mushroom and provolone cheese ONLY!!!!!

Always hot and fresh and good. The hush puppies are legit and I can't resist getting them.

If anybody is looking for the absolute food spot!!! Here it is!!! The Go Philly Cheesesteaks and Wings, located in Tacoma off of 16th and Tacoma Ave S!!! Man, their food is the best!!! I just had some of their juicy, moist, and made to order Southern Fried Jumbo chicken wings for dinner yesterday and they were the best!!! They are like wings the size of your fingers!!! But I have yet to try their cheesesteaks and I heard they they were okay too!!! They got all different kinds, like a regular cheesesteak, a deluxe, a chicken Philly, a Pepperoni cheesesteak and even a Veggie one for all you vegans out there!!! I was totally satisfied with the food and everything in between. They also have another location I Lakewood (I have been there also!!!) The one thing I will say about this is that this place resembles TRUE Comfort Food!!! I would take a pic of the jumbo Chicken Wings they got, but they had to be eaten!!! Will definitely be coming again soon, you got my approval!!! read more

The Reuben is disgusting you should let people know that it's not on marble rye bread.. also the philly roll they used was not toasted so was extremely soggy. For a $18 sandwich you guys should just take it off the menu because I love Reuben sandwiches and this is not it read more

My family have eaten here a few other times. The food had no taste and didn't taste good, the fries were soggy due to all the oil on the chicken strips that also weren't seasoned. The receptionist was very rude when we came to pick up the food. Called up to the store to let them know and she took down our name and number. Hopefully we hear something back. I gave a 2 star because I have enjoyed the food in the past even though the main lady who gives you the food is always rude. Spent $70!!!! read more

Tried to only give us our sides. Couldn't find our sandwiches and had to remake them. Took over an hour. Do better!

I finally had an opportunity to try their cheesesteak sandwich and felt that I only got a boiled meat sandwich... Unfortunately, I felt that what you pay for and what you get are two totally different things. I've heard from others that this is a great East Coast style CHEESE steak sandwich which I was anticipating when I bought a cheesesteak sandwich. What I was given was a boiled meat sandwich that looked nothing like the pictures on their menu. For $10.95, I was anticipating that like the picture on their menu that it would be a roll filled with delicious steak with big chunks of bell peppers and melted cheese on top. What I ended up receiving was a roll filled with a very light ash gray boiled meat with tiny pieces of boiled onions and bell peppers, that were barely visible. There was NO cheese on top of it either so the entire sandwich was just boiled meat in a bun (It would've been a perfect sandwich if I was lactose intolerant and hated vegetables because there was no cheese or onions or bell peppers on it). I felt like I paid $10.95 for a $5 meat sandwich. My thoughts are if you want to try it and spend the $14 for a meat sandwich and soda, it's not a horrible sandwich. But again, it had no peppers or cheese on it. In my opinion, It paled in comparison to Philly cheesesteak sandwiches that I've had before from other shops. read more

Go Philly - Original Cheesesteak - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Rude service is GUARANTEED here. Also, they advertise coupons and then refuse to accept them. When you ask them to follow through on their (obviously falsely) advertised special they say "We stopped that months ago", which is weird because it's been in the app for months. They also act like you're the problem just for asking. When you ask to have the owner call, they send you to the website and there isn't any contact information. Is this the kind of establishment you want to give your money to? Food is decent, if a bit salty, but it really isn't worth it to me anymore and I was a once a week customer. Met the owner and he seemed decent, but I can't deal with a small business that does the same thing corporations do to us. I'll make sure to steer clear and make sure all that I know do the same. read more

Bring your appetite, because these guys make an amazing Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. We always order online - they have an app which makes it very convenient, it confirms your order, then lets you know when your order is ready to be picked up. The pick up window has a doorbell, so you don't need to wait long for someone to bring your order. They do offer a dine in option. read more

I never leave yelp reviews. This place was special. The lady at the front counter was brisk well past the point of rude. (I get it, you don't like your job, don't want to be there). The food took over a half hour, which is absurd for assembling a sandwich on a slow afternoon. And it was bad. Like real bad. I ordered a chicken cheese steak. I got boiled/shredded chicken with a few onions mixed in and what might have been some white cheese on a soggy roll. No peppers, no flavor. Not only could have I made this at home, I wouldn't, because it sucked. read more
