A super hidden gem dive diner, open since 1972. The very best Deal in Michigan, fresh hand Patty Beef 1/2 Cheeseburger only $5. Cooked to order real Lettuce, Mater n Onion , on a super soft bun . To all you Burger review Foodies, my rating 9.5 a must try . Get this for only $3 you get Onion Rings or Fries and a large drink MEGA DEAL. While we ate inside at least 50 orders went out the door. The very best ever eaten Deluxe Steak Hoegie , only $4 for double Steak. All this only $20 can you say super cheap , it's hidden border of Ypsilanti and Belleville. They have thousands of regular customers, once the brothers had 3 locations 70's and 80's. We shared both Steak and Burger , no place in state you can eat 5 star food so cheap . Those Hot Peppers are a must try Yummy. Shout out to Kriss for the five star service . #howardshoagies @detroit_food_review #lowprices #cheeseburger #steakhoagie #onionrings @burger_review_guy

Just moved to the area and thought we'd give Howard's a shot. WOW! LOVED it!! We've come twice in a week. This will be our new go to. The service was so friendly and the menu prices are really reasonable.

I decided to drop off a package on this side of town. This place caught my eye due to the name. I am a n East coast Pennsylvania guy so a name like Hoagie typically catches my eye. There is a decent amount of parking in the front but I can imagine it could get crowded under regular circumstances. The place was small. There is a counter and a few tables. All seating was blocked off during covid and a mask was required. I ordered the steak hoagie with onions, mushrooms and cheese. This is the ultimate hoagie for me. I was told by the friendly lady that it would be ready in 15 minutes. The steak was good but I have had better. I always compare it to East coast locations because that is the measuring stick to me. The bread is really as important as the meat with this sandwich. The bread was ok and the meat was good. Bread is a matter of presence but I prefer the hoagie with a little bit of a firmness to the bread. Overall the sandwich is worth a try. The person that took my order was also friendly. I would visit again if I'm on that side of town.

Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the fresh, flavorful food, especially hoagies, burgers, and sides. The affordable pricing and friendly service are also well-regarded.

Located in a kind of out of the way spot but worth finding. Good cheeseburger and fries at a reasonable price. Great hole in the wall place.

The locations by me always had great reviews and people even recommended the place to me, yet were…read morealways empty. The two closest locations to me then closed. I was in the area for lunch and Lefty's sounded good. The Korean BBQ Hoagie and the Cheesesteak with spicy cherry peppers were my favorites. I ordered the cheesesteak, with fries, and some cheese sticks. It was delicious as always. Fries were crispy, cheese sticks were piping hot, and the steak was juicy. It was better than the locations by me because the place was cleaner and the staff was nicer. I was pretty shocked how good everything was, especially for a chain. Plus, it was busier than the old locations by me, leading me to think it wasn't a fluke and just good staff. I don't review places all that often, but it was just genuinely tasty and the other ones just didn't get enough business (probably because they were in weird tucked away spots). So that's why I felt the need to give it 5 stars.

While all the peoples are dream cruising in metro Detroit, we're spending Sunday in Ann Arbor/Ypsi…read more I brought my left handed wife here partly for novelty, partly for the pleasure of a great cheesesteak! The store is not as sparkling as in past visits. The staff not as receptive. The food definitely not up to par. What a terrible disappointment. Yes, this chain is currently in the middle of legal woes and massive store closings. Again, the food is decent, but not as great as 10 years ago. Even 5 years ago. Not to be paranoid, but is there an advantage to sabotaging your own product? It just didn't taste right. Like something missing or something has changed. Please bring this place back to prominence. I miss the days when I would get yelled at for eating with my right hand! lol 08/24

The lady who took our order did not speak the best English when trying to ask about gluten free options for a coworker but we figured it out. I got the bibimbop with chicken and it was so good. Very simple and clean tasting while the portion size being appropriate for the price. I also got the fried kimchi which was great and egg drop soup which wasn't for me but I wanted to try new things. My coworker got their bulgogi hoagie and liked it so much he was debating ordering a second one to go! Bibimbop - 9/10 Fried Kimchi - 9/10 Egg Drop Soup - 7/10 The place is very small but it wasn't busy when we went. I would definitely recommend this place and I might just go again before I leave town.

If I'm being honest, provolone, pepper jack, or Swiss would have been a better cheese choice but it's still a pretty good sandwich....especially for the size and price point. The fries, although nicely crisp, seem to be in need of a little more attention. Salt and an aioli(as opposed to just ketchup) would make a world of difference. Broadways price point is a little on the high side but portions are generous. Overall Broadway cafe is a decent choice for casual akorean in Anne arbor.

No added toppings such as diced onion. Do not recommend re-heating them. The cheesesteak sand which is tasty as well. They do a nice job here. The meat wasn't salty; it's flavorful and cooked well. I'm not sure what kind of beef cut they use, but I would assume it's of the skirt / flank variety. Tender, but not stringy. Stop in!

We just paid $75 at Lefty's Cheesesteaks for what might be the saddest excuse for cheesesteaks I've…read moreever seen. We ordered 3 large cheesesteaks, 2 fries, and cheesesteak rolls, plus paid extra for add ons like cherry peppers on the side. Not only did they forget the extras entirely, but the "large" sandwiches were a joke. They used bigger buns and apparently decided that counted as a larger sandwich, because there was definitely not more meat. In fact, the meat barely covered HALF the bread. We literally have to cook extra meat at home just to turn these into actual cheesesteaks. And the cheesesteak rolls? The menu photo shows four halves. What showed up was ONE roll cut in half. That's it. The curly fries were the only thing remotely worth the money. Charging extra for every tiny add on while simultaneously skimping on the actual food (and the addons) is wild. If you're going to charge premium prices, at least put enough meat on the sandwich to justify calling it a cheesesteak.
