My boy and I have been to Philly and ate as many cheesesteaks as we could, so I've had Gino's, Pat's & Cleaver's, but I missed out on trying Philip's. I love Philly cheesesteaks, and I'm also an Eagles fan, so when the Eagles were in both Super Bowls, we hosted Super Bowl parties with Philly Cheesesteaks. Well, I heard this place was in town, and I wanted to give it a try. We decided to meet here before going to watch the Street Fighter movie, eat, grab a quick drink, and then hit the theatre. I must say, Jawny's was easily the highlight of the night! Once I arrived, there was plenty of parking in the small shopping area. I walked in, and the place was clean, spacious, and extremely bright! I loved the art on the walls, and the service and people were nice and welcoming. I couldn't decide what to order, so the lady at the register broke it down: Do you like bell peppers and mushrooms? If not, go with the 215 (Philly). If you do, go with the LA Philly. I chose LA with white American cheese. I do like wiz cheese, and that's the Philly style, but I wanted to change it up that night. Off the rip, Jawny's is legit and was better than all three spots I tried in Philly. The bread was on point, the meat was fresh, the cheese was melted to perfection. I also got, I think, the mango lemonade? Whatever lemonade it was, it was fire! Lastly, the cheesesteak sandwiches are pretty big, and I only ate half. I tried one of my boy's fries, and they were good too. I highly recommend! OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros read more

For a $22 dollar sandwich, I had higher hopes. The meat is thinly shaved, hot, and piled together in a way that all you end up tasting is gooey cheese. It's not great, but it also could be worse. One and done for me. No real vibe or ambiance either. I don't love places blasting random loud pop music. read more

Man I spent $60 on two sandwiches, fries and ONE sauce. Maybe I made the mistake ordering chicken at a cheesesteak place, but man it was nasty. The breast was soggy, they put mushrooms when I asked for none. I'll give them one more try for an actual cheesesteak and I hope to be pleasantly surprised read more

I had a really good meal and experience at Jawny's. I met my friend there to try it (originally from Philly) and we both left satisfied. My friend found it to be pretty genuine in the Philly style. The restaurant was bright, clean and spacious. My Philly cheesesteak looked big and impressive, and had all the right flavors. Staff were friendly. Parking is a bit limited. Recommended if you need a decent cheesesteak! read more

Got the (215) Philly Cheesesteak, fries and wings and everything tasted great. Having grown up in Philly my entire life I was alittle disappointed to see a mayonnaise option for the sandwiches (never seen that before for an authentic steak sandwich, only a hoagie). The only other down side was not enough steak in my cheesesteak. Great service, good parking and plenty of seating. GO BIRDS!!! read more

I have been hearing about Jawny's for a while and finally got the chance to try it since they opened their first brick and mortar right next to my barbershop. We ordered the LA Spicy Philly and it did not disappoint. Genuinely one of the best Philly cheesesteaks I've had, the flavor was phenomenal from start to finish. And the best part? I personally confirmed with the owners over the phone that their cheesesteak is halal, which means the whole family can enjoy it together. That's huge. If you're in Sherman Oaks or anywhere nearby, you need to try this place. Food: 5/5 Location: 5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 (only because they're super busy right now, which honestly is a good sign!) If this review helped, a thumbs up means a lot read more

I really did not expect this, I really didn't -- THE BEST Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich I've had in my life! I went with the most popular LA Philly sandwich, that came with the Philly steak, a little mayo, sauteed onions, mushrooms, bell peppers and their homemade cheese whiz. The philly steak itself tasted incredibly high-quality, perfectly cooked and super juicy and the flavor was so rich that one would think it's A5 Wagyu meat. Each group of sautéed veggies too, felt like it's some Erewhon quality, simply better than the rest of them in other places in LA. Especially the mushrooms....so flavorful, juicy, so good! And to top all that goodness, the sandwich was somewhat soaked in cheese whiz and that one too, stood above the rest, based on its quality, taste, texture and of how it perfectly complimented the whole sandwich as a whole. A special mention also goes out to their sandwich loaf, which was incredibly yummy, super fresh and slightly crunchy on the outside and perfectly soft and delicious on the inside and all of it, without overpowering the fantastic, savory flavor notes of the meat. Extremely impressive and the best Philly cheesesteak that I've had. The customer service was pretty good and the place itself has modern, industrial design with steel tables and cool graffiti on the walls depicting their food and the yellow color palette is represented for their homemade wiz that they are proud of and rightfully so, because it tastes phenomenal! Will definitely be back again! read more

This is not going to be for me. Want to have my party catered and so I order delivery to try them out. Crispy chicken wings- no crispy to be found, rubbery- tiny to be $2 each Cheesesteak- overall made me sad, inconsistent burnt char, no seasoning, breads empty end. $20 a pop is gonna be a no go. Quality reality does not match the hype of their videos read more

When someone makes an order for delivery and your sandwiches are out of stock (?), you should cancel the entire order, don't just cancel the sandwich, and think, for some bizarre reason, that the customer would still want a side of fries delivered. I would have appreciated having a chance to change my order. In short, don't order delivery from this place. ETA: I got a very nice response from the owner, which I greatly appreciate. So often, businesses don't address customer service issues, and they did right away. I appreciate that, and I'll gladly give Jawny's another try. read more

Jawny’s - Out of stock for sandwiches - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Appreciate the response and taking accountability for deleting comments, especially when they're from customers who have been there in the beginning and have a reasonable expectation of the food and service. One part I wanted to address is where you say that it didn't meet "our standards". What are customers getting, and what should they expect? What was on IG was certainly not what I received and it's not like I went to a cheap and quick sandwich spot, since Jawny's is supposed to be one of the best Cali cheesesteak places, and I felt like you were a great contender the several times I had Philly Boyz. I felt mine was short on quality a bit, but mostly size. Don't expect to leave filled up, but satisfied and not hungry. read more

Jawny’s - LA cheesesteak w/ Cooper Sharp. Bread a little stale. Not much meat, cheese, or veggies. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

These guys are terrific people and even better chefs! They started at a car wash working long nights serving up delicious wings and cheesesteaks for a great price. They now have a home in a terrific space at Burbank and Hazeltine in the Valley. The cheesesteaks are even better since I can sit comfortably in the spacious dining area with the crowd and not feel packed in like sardines. And perfect timing for the summer heat. Add the homemade wiz which is delicious and some hot wings and some cheese fries and you have the perfect feast or after the bar hangover cure. Fresh onions, peppers, and mushrooms are just icing on the cake. And the service is quick and the kitchen runs like a machine. Everything is cooked to perfection every time. This is my new cheesesteak spot in LA. read more

Extremely impressed with the staff! Super friendly, extremely kind and boy do they move quick. I stopped by to try them out today for the first time in my food was ready in no time. Not just that, but I was greeted at the minute I walked in. They totally make you feel welcomed. The dining area is completely spotless. Now for the food, I had the LA Philly meal which includes fries and a soda. It was so so good! Will definitely be going back! The bread was nice and moist without being soggy, their house made Wiz cheese is fantastic. Looking forward to trying on things on their menu. read more

Finally they opened for lunch, cheesesteaks were a bit pricey BUT worth it, heavy lotsa meat and onions were grilled and sweet BUT also ordered the 2 flavor wing combo and also pricey but I am a wing man and I was so disappointed they were so tiny and dry, barely any meat on them. i will post a pic I would just suggest that if the cooks notice they got a batch of tiny wings they would supplement them with some extras. I will be back but wont be ordering the wings any time soon, many better options out there read more

Jawny’s - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Jawny's (formerly Philly Boyz) just retired their car wash food stand and leveled up to their first brick-and-mortar storefront, down the street. ========= LOCATION ========= There new storefront is located on the edge of Sherman Oaks on Burbank/Hazeltine in a small corner strip mall that neighbors a donut shop and Jamaican eatery. They took over the old Indian spot that was here for decades and the inside is pretty large and comfy compared to their old car wash parking lot. Lots of metal tables with padded chairs for dining in. There's cool cheese themed mural type artwork on the walls, cheesy whiz dripping down with the Philly skyline in the back and a nice juicy Phillysteak sitting on the Delaware River. Parking is cool, plenty of spaces inside the lot and you can park on Burbank Blvd. =========== THE (M)EATS =========== ~ LA PHILLY -- There spin on the Philadelphia native has mayonnaise, steak, mushrooms, onion, bell pepper and cheese. I got mine with their homemade Cheese Wiz. The bread is a lightly toasted roll that is slightly crunchy on the outside yet soft, chewy and pillowy on the inside. They stuff a good-size helping of steak inside and you can taste the freshness and quality of everything. It all came together great and I loved it was packed with steak. (5/5) ~ HOT HONEY WINGS -- These were amazing. As someone that's been to Atlanta 5 times in the past year (the birthplace of Hot Honey wings) I can co-sign that they were amazing. (5/5) =============== FINAL THOUGHTS =============== New location, new menu, same old deliciousness. JAWNY's churns out the best Cheesesteak I've had in the Valley and I'm glad I can now get it rain or shine, whether during a 100-degree heat wave (presently) or if we're having an El Niño rainstorm. Can't wait to try it with the different cheeses and wing flavors read more

; It's not what I expected. I thought I would be in for a treat with a local gem cooking up authentic Phillys. I ordered a ten piece chicken Hot honey and Hot lemon pepper; The spicy LA with Wiz and Cooper, & a side of fries with additional Wiz for dipping. Now, in my favor I thought they was on top of they shit when I seen the Cooper cheese as an option but upon making it back home to devour the haul I was distinguished by the low quality. It's not prepared with angus steak cuts. The ranch was of a low quality and no taste. My wings were bland and flavorless. The cool faces and humble demeanor made me think it was #goodeats but I'll have to say it's not read more

Stopped by on opening day - to a mostly smooth brick and mortar operation kicking off. Went with the classic Philly, with the house made Wiz. I made it a combo and also ordered the hot lemon pepper wings. Wasn't mad about my food. It kept my tastebuds occupied for the England v France bronze game. The portions, for what I paid...I'll accept. The cheesesteak landscape in LA is still a small neighborhood. You got the mall chain, the imported-from-Philly chain (my fave), and the indie complex, where Jawny's and a handful of other developing entities reside. LA loves a good hot, chopped sandwich and businesses will continue to showcase their take on the east coast institution. Even fast service megas, like Jack in the Crack and Arby's, are making sure they can ride the cheesesteak wave. Did Jawny's keep up with my favorite? Not so much. Not with the classic. I'm not even sure what was so proprietary about the house made Wiz. And the overall value made the original steak feel like more of a hyped, boutique version of the cheesteak. It just wasn't substance-forward. But this restaurant will technically be more accessible than the carwash pop-up was, and that counts in my hemisphere. To be honest, I see myself ordering their wings more often, as a closer alternative to Wingstop. Ultimately, Jawny's is middle of the road for me. Seems it'll be passible food that I can stand to pay for some of the time. But congratulations on a place to call your own, y'all! That much, for sure, deserves a salute. read more

I got double steak this time and it hits Everyone's complaining how they don't give a lot There's double steak option on the menu They're not stingy with the sauces honestly Wish they had a location in the valley Drive is not bad but I like eating my wings fresh Still was all bussin I'll def try it with the wiz next time! read more

From everything that social media shows you would think that this place would have the greatest Philly on earth or at least in Los Angeles. But after trying it, I was not impressed at all. The Philly lacked flavor. I found myself searching for salt to give it a little bit of taste. The liquid cheese was mediocre. There was nothing impressive at all when it comes to the sandwich.. their fries were decent though crispy and they give you their signature sauce and a ranch, which is nice. I would take a Jersey Mike's Philly over this place any day. read more

Jawny’s - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First time trying and I've gotta say, as a person who don't usually like to eat cheesesteaks... this one was fireeeeee. Soooo delicious. Portions were amazing, service was amazing, ingredients are fresh, and price was decent for the portion. Definitely recommend if you're in the valley come here and visit them. Their Jawny sauce is too die for. The steaks are fresh and cooked in front. They're very clean and keep it clean. Chairs are provided with table. Outdoor seating. Parking is limited. read more

Tried Philly Boyz and overall it was a solid experience with a few standouts. The Chicken Cheesesteak was full, flavorful, and definitely satisfying, no skimping on portions. One sandwich was more than enough, and honestly, I'm glad we didn't order fries because we were already stuffed. The 215 Philly, however, was a bit underwhelming compared to the chicken. It wasn't bad, just didn't have the same punch or wow factor I was expecting. One small wish: I'd love the option to order half a sandwich, the portions are generous, which is great, but sometimes you want variety without committing to a full one, or you eat like I do and can't do a full sandwich justice. All that said, I'm excited to see what they do with their brick-and-mortar location opening in April 2026. Definitely a spot worth checking out, especially for the chicken cheesesteak. read more

Pretty disappointing. Dry sandwiches. Cheese stuck to the bread none on the meat. Forgot the side of cheese. All bad.

Food - Excellent Service - Good Value - Not good Location- Fair Cleanliness- Super clean , bare in mind its just recently opened, so it better be clean. It would get a 5 star if only it didnt cost so much for a 10-12 inch sub $ 19 just a sandwich not a good deal. Im hoping Jawwnys will read this and check their prices or make the sandwich larger read more

Been wanting to try this place ever since I first saw them at the car wash, and today was finally the day! Overall, everything was really good! The steak sandwich was delicious, and the fries were great as well. One little tip for the owners: if customers are dining in, I would definitely recommend offering trays and leaving the Philly steak sandwich fully open rather than wrapping it in deli paper. The sandwich comes with all that amazing melted cheese on top, and wrapping it makes the cheese stick to the paper and can make the whole thing pretty messy and harder to enjoy. I think the cashier should ask, "For here or to go?" and if someone is dining in, serve the Philly open on a tray so the presentation--and the whole Philly experience--doesn't get lost in the paper. Just a little suggestion! Also, this definitely isn't an everyday meal price-wise We spent over $50 for one meal plus an additional sandwich, so yikes! But overall, we enjoyed it and I'm glad we finally gave them a try! read more

This place's food quality is trash. I was a fan when it was in a parking lot Now it's 0/10 Never again Try Philly on the block, corner sandwich, Matū, Sonny's. Much better meat quality and overall quality of food read more

Finally tried this with my boyfriend we got 2 Philly's with watermelon lemonade and it was $45 which felt pretty pricey because ours was plain (215) they wrap your order to go even though we dined in. So the cheese gets stuck to the wrapper which is a bummer. I wish they served it open so I can savor the cheese because that's what makes the sandwich right? The cashier with the pink hair had great energy and was patient with us. The lemonade tasted very sweet and artificial then I saw the guy pour pre bought lemonade mixture and just mixed it with water which confirmed my suspicions. The jawns tasted good I felt like the portions were fair and enough because the meat was falling off with each bite. It was good for simple cheesesteaks and we would come back for a late night meal. read more

I placed an order through Jawnys and even tipped my delivery driver $10, only to receive an incomplete order with my drink missing. What makes this frustrating is the complete lack of customer service. I attempted to call the restaurant multiple times, only to be greeted by an automated AI system that was absolutely useless and ended the call without connecting me to an actual person. I also messaged my delivery driver about the missing item and received no response whatsoever. It's honestly ridiculous that a business can happily take your money but make it nearly impossible to contact anyone when something goes wrong. The missing drink was only about $4, but that's not the point. It's about basic customer service, accountability, and delivering what customers actually paid for. Additionally, I was required to create an account through Toast to place my order, which involved providing my personal phone number. I was also presented with a cookie consent pop-up. Strangely enough, approximately one hour after placing my order, I began receiving SIX suspicious calls from unfamiliar numbers across different states, including calls flagged as spam. I have never experienced anything like this before, making the timing extremely suspicious. This has left me uncomfortable with how my personal information may be handeled. Wings were pretty decent but small in size and the cheesesteak fries were soggy and flavorless. read more

It was okay at best. The service was good, and the food came out fast--I'd say almost too fast. But here's the problem: the meat was basically broiled. I had to peek over to see how they were cooking it. The whole cooktop was stacked with meat, with juices pooling around it and essentially boiling the meat. Maybe I was there on a particularly busy day and it's normally cooked differently, with a proper sear, but based on my experience, the meat just wasn't what I expected. I expected better for 26+ out the door for a combo. read more

Jawnys was amazing, from the food to the conversation with the staff and owners. This place makes you feel like your home enjoying some great food. The inside was very clean and well maintained.

Jawny’s - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Finally stopped at Philly Boyz for a late night cheesesteak, and now I'm angry at myself for not stopping much, much sooner. The nicest guys on the planet cooking up excellent cheesesteaks to order on a well-seasoned grill that imbues the meat with just the right flavor and char. Fresh rolls flown in from Philly get lightly toasted and neatly cradle the very generous serving of meat, cheese and whatever fixings you decide to add. I had them chop in their hot peppers, and that gave the sandwich a serious pop of vinegar and heat. I came at a slow time, so my sandwich was made quickly, but now that I've had my first taste, I wouldn't mind a wait if that's what I encounter in the future. And as we know, this operation is a pop-up at the Fashion Square Car Wash in Sherman Oaks, so the ambience is nighttime parking lot chic. And that's perfectly fine for such a fine rendition of a meal that has always been a casual experience. I'm told they're opening their brick & mortar shop in February, and I'm betting they'll have lines out the door. Way to go, Philly Boyz. read more

Let's call it a 3.5 The ranch - some of the best ranch. Homemade and herby and delicious. The fries - could have been a smidge crispier. But, grain of salt because it was delivery. The flavor was great though! The cheesesteak- this is where they lost some points. The meat was phenomenally seasoned. It almost had like a crisp to it. But - I paid an extra $2 for extra cheese. And idk maybe that got missed? But if that's extra cheese it's a joke lol. Also lost points because the last 1/3 of the sandwich had no meat. I feel like for the price the bread should be full end to end. read more

I was born and raised in Philly and this was definitely NOT A Philly JAWN !! It was seasoned very well but I was so disappointed... First for paying $21 per sandwich as the delivery fee was an additional $3 per sandwich ( instead of 1 fee for the entire order) Second for only getting a 1/4 of the meat typically found on Philly Cheesesteak this was outrageous!! There was mostly mushrooms opinions and cheese with very little steak... in fact on one 1/2 of the sandwich the meat didn't even cover the bread... see attached photo! They had the nerve to charge $8 for extra meat ... in Philly, you don't need extra meat!! read more

Jawny’s - The half of my sandwich with no MEAT!! - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Jawnys is fire. I forgot the other name they went by but I've been frequenting them since then. I love a good cheesesteak even going as far as going to Philly for one and Jawnys could definitely compete with sone of those east coast staples. I usually order them on Uber Eats but you can pick them up if you feel like. They don't have much of a seating area since it's in a parking lot but somehow folks make it work. If you don't order before hand you may have a small wait but it's cool because there's usually people around to converse with so it helps kill time. Definitely hit them up, I'm no expert but I think they're doing one of if not the best cheesesteaks in SFV read more

These sandwiches are not one you'd find in Philly(especially with the inclusion of mayo). However in its own right it's really good.

Its a popup located in the middle of a carwash(?) but there's plenty of parking and theres some tables and chairs set up. I'd stop by again. read more

Review is based on the wings, I ordered pickup extra saucy hot lemon pepper (wet) the wings were dry and not crispy or wet and the flavor just wasn't that great, ive heard good things about the sandwiches but for now based off the wings alone it was a 2/5 otherwise the order was completed efficiently and fast within 15 minutes of placing it, and was ready to go when I arrived. read more

Food is okay, but nothing great. The prices are where I say absolutely not! For what you get I can't justify this.

My first time having a philly cheesesteak and I am so glad it was this place!! I got the spicy LA one and loved it. All the flavors were so delicious and their house whiz cheese paired perfectly. The original sauce was fire with it. I also tried the chicken sandwich and it was so juicy and yummy. Definitely coming back for more! read more
