    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 the place is clean but a bit outdated..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

    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 :)

    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.

    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.

    #5 with cheese fries

    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.

    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!

    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!

Hubby and my opinion about this greasy spoon changed since our initial experience back during COVID. Back then we had burgers. Where's the beef? It was dressed high with iceberg lettuce and white raw onions. However we've been here twice in recent weeks. The burger is still decked high with lettuce and raw onions but we now know what to expect. The menu is very diverse - breakfast items, hot & cold sandwiches, burgers, fish and chips, Korean fried chicken, teriyaki bowls, etc. Today the teriyaki bowls caught our eye - * hubby got the beef - sliced beef with teriyaki sauce over white rice in a nice Asian melamine rice bowl. * I got the chicken. Strips of grilled chicken with teriyaki sauce over white rice in a nice melamine Asian rice bowl. The others in our group ordered items to share. They're more familiar with the menu as they've been eating here off and on for awhile. There are two metal picnic tables outdoors where we all sat. We wiped the tables down with a Clorox wipe as the tables were somewhat dirty. Now that we've eaten here several times hubby & I will be agreeable if the group suggest we come here again for our 19th hole. There's a good size parking lot onsite. The building itself reminds me of an old time hamburger joint.
