    Classic
    Latrese P.

    I called in to place my order, which was quick and easy. I ordered the classic steak which came with steak fries and a ginger ale. The total was $17 and some change. I was about 10 mins. away and arrive around 11:45am. I was able to get a park right out front. Upon entry, I was greeted and assisted promptly as no one was inside. Meat was seasoned well, and fries were good.

    Deluxe Philly Cheesesteak
    Loredo L.

    We were in town for an AAU boys basketball tournament and stopped by here for a quick sandwich lunch. The place is a classic hole in the wall place that looks 50's old but very clean inside. The owner was at the front register and said she was Korean. Everything was made within minutes and we dined in. I loved my #6 Philly cheesesteak and cheese fries. The portions were very generous. My family enjoyed their lunches as well. The prices were reasonable and represented a good value. Highly recommend!

    The service is nice and polite.. the place is clean but a bit outdated.. the food is fresh and delicious.. prices are reasonable I would recommend

    Fries
    Markus Y.

    The portions are huge! The food's also freshly cooked (service is great), and we demolished the two sandwiches between three people within minutes (I forgot to take a picture; we were pretty ravenous.) I'd definitely suggest teriyaki and personal; monster size, if you are planning to split. The sandwiches come with steak cut fries. The place is clean and well kept, and there's street parking available; ambiance is very homey. (Here's some pics of fries. It was the only thing i can salvage after I realized nobody took pics.)

    It's a small local shop for cheesesteaks in SL. I've lived in Philadelphia for 4 years so I've had my fair share of cheesesteaks, and this unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. The bread was a bit tough and there wasn't too much meat or cheese. The flavor of the meat is fine and there is a solid amount of fries so it'll fill you up. There is some seating inside and the service is good.

    Steak hoagie (no bun) with bacon, mushrooms and peppers over fries
    Nichelle P.

    This has been my favorite little spot for years. They are always so kind and friendly. The food is always great. I usually order my hoagie with no bun and have them put it over the fries. It's bomb. Try it :)

    On the menu, it's says San Leandro's guilty pleasures. That's what is being served at Hoagy Steak. Famous for the cheesesteaks but they also have teriyaki rice plates, burgers, seafood plates, and mush more. It was challenging for me to just order one thing because a lot of items on the menu sounded good to me. But I stuck with what I originally came to try which was the cheesesteak. So how was it? It was solid. Not the best I've had and I think I would ask for 50% more meat that is offered for an additional $4. But overall the bread was soft and toasted perfect. The meat was seasoned well but chopped a little more finely than I'd prefer. I asked for provolone and American cheeses for the contrast which was good. Fries were excellent with crunchy exterior and a soft meaty potato filling inside. The owners were very nice and hard working people. Can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu.

    I've been eating here since the mid to late 90s when they opened. This is definitely a staple in San Leandro. And one of my go to spots not really a traditional Philly cheesesteak, but the bread is fantastic, the meat is always cooked perfectly and the cheese is nice and gooey. The owners are friendly people and the service is quick. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for my food. I've eaten here hundreds of times and never get tired of it. Definitely my top three Philly cheesesteak places this is in it. You can never go wrong with the number one or the sleazy cheesy or the personal.

    Mushroom (monster - 50% more meat and cheese) & Onion rings
    Jennifer C.

    I really wanted to give this more than a 3 star because I have a soft spot for mom and pop shops, but there really just wasn't anything that would warrant a return visit. Got a deluxe with curly fries and a mushroom (monster size) with onion rings. We added onion to both for no extra charge (don't forget to request this or you won't get your onions!). Deluxe and curly fries were fine - no specific complaints, but generally forgettable and just "good" (hence the 3 stars). We did have some issues with the monster mushroom and onion rings though. First, meat to cheese ratio felt way off. It was clear they added more meat to the sandwich but the cheese looked and tasted nearly nonexistent. Onion rings also smelled and tasted fishy. We're assuming they used the same oil as their fish n chips and it was just not a pleasant experience. Overall, wanted to love this place but didnt. Glad others love it and will support them though!

    Back again! This time for a hoagy burger with American Cheese on a french roll. The service is fast and friendly. The vibe is classic burger joint.

    Bacon Cheese Steak
    Alma L.

    The BEST cheesesteak shop in the bay, hands down, this mom and pop spot with the kindnest customer service, they had always came through with consistency and deliciousness. Inside is pretty tight and since I broke my ankle I've been ordering everything To-Go for now. I always order a cheesesteak add extra cheese, bacon and avocado with a side a of curly fries. They give you so much food, it's so worth it. I've tried they're teriyaki plates as well and they're a 11/10, soooo good! Plus they have Mexican sodas, I love it here. Whenever someone ask me to recommend them a good cheesesteak spot, I always say this spot and it never fails!

When I passed by Roccabs at 1:40pm same day, the doors were open and patrons were inside eating lunch. I continued to call and no one was answering the phones. After I finished shopping at Sprouts, I returned to my car and decided to go to Roccabs in person. I was still calling and still no one answered. I pulled up in front of the deli before 2pm and there were still patrons dining "inside" of the deli. I got out of my car and headed inside only to meet one of the employees as she was leaving and she smiled and said, "Im sorry we are closing now". I looked over at the two women who were sitting down and eating their lunch, as I was turned away. There were no hours posted on the door, and everyone behind the counter was literally standing around talking. I probably will not return based on the service. Not answering the phones, but your doors are open and you are serving patrons who were white and turning away people of color coming through the door, during normal business hours according to Google and no signs on the door indicating special hours today. All while turning away POC patrons on MLK day. Nope!!! Do better Roccab. You could have taken the time to post special hours and since you were in fact open, you could have answered the phones to let customers know you had special hours today or that you were Not open to the public. These are simple things to do. And it looks really awkward telling someone you are not open, when you have other people dining inside your establishment.

    Foods not great, but the real issue is the parking meters outside throughout the entire lot. Why…read moreare these here? Is it private property and these tickets are just empty threats? With most lots like this you can't be compelled to pay the tickets - only when the city issues tickets are they enforceable. The plaza is privately owned, and everything is leased out. So does San Leandro own it? Does the plaza owner think these meters are good for our city? I think the plaza owner will be happy to know that I am on the case and I've never lost a war in my life. I lose fights often, strategically, but never the grand scheme battles. Issues that affect my fellow citizens (like this) are a marathon, and I sprint through them. I promise these meters will be removed. If they refuse, I will demand an appropriate sacrifice from the plaza ownership. If the city somehow owns this plaza and installed these meters - Is San Leandro in need of our quarters that badly, and if so, why don't these even accept quarters? Only allowing electronic pay is certainly a decision. They probably expect us all to be robots in a few years and want to get their infrastructure ready to squeeze the oil out of us when that day comes. I used to get tickets in parking lots in Walnut Creek and would just tear them up. It never came back to haunt me. If I kept parking in those same lots I suppose they could eventually tow the car but I wouldn't give them the opportunity. I still like lowkey small businesses like this one, no frills or decorations, just show up for food. As far as sandwiches go I don't think this is my preference but they come across as very nice and consistent. Other people like this place, it seems. I don't like cold stack sandwiches unless some attention goes into the accents so I'm not the target audience here. The lady at the front was very friendly but this isn't really a sit down service place, they just give you the food.

Freshest produce. Honestly, I was hungry but could only eat half of it, it was so big. + Friend got a warmed cinnamon bun. Incredible. Yeasty, chewy almost crisp on the outside but pillowy soft on the inside. + Wide open space inside -- high ceilings, one big central area.
