The steak is high quality and up there with the best places out there. It has a coarser texture. The melted cheese is well integrated with the steak. I'd like to see the grilled veggies better integrated into the mix though. They tend to be a bit separate on the sandwich. Also, the Chicken Chipotle Steak is even better than the Cheesesteak. It's so flavorful. I've had a bunch of things I like from Ray and Mike's. They're open early and have a good breakfast sandwich made to order. Their house roast turkey is good and has become a favorite of my wife. The one thing I think could be improved is the Italian combo sandwich and/or cold grinder construction in general. The meat could be cut a bit thinner on the Italian Combo, but it's quality meat. And they could construct cold grinders in a way I'd enjoy more. The grinder roll is cut open on one side and closed on the other. They first add all the veggie toppings and condiments and then they put folded over deli toppings on top of that. The result is that it's difficult to take bites that have both meat and toppings. If they added the meat first and wrapped it around the inside of the bread, and then added the veggies, you'd get a better distribution of the ingredients when you bite. There's no inside seating, but there are a few tables outside. The deli is really designed to be functional. So the decor isn't a selling point. Service has always been friendly. I recommend Ray and Mike's, but I'd recommend going with the cheesesteaks or Chipotle Chicken Steak or another hot sandwich, over something like the Italian Combo grinder. 4.25 Stars

I never tasted sausage and peppers so good. I went there on Valentine's day and it was rigth around noon. I was heartbroken when they had no sausage and peppers left. They must have been really busy that day because it was not late in the after noon. Also the mac and cheese is very good. The place is clean, the owner and everyone are very friendly and I will be back to get those sausage and peppers when it isn't a special day!

My mother had this spaghetti and meatballs and liked it a lot. She enjoyed the meatballs himself as they had a lot of flavor and she could see the ingredients inside such as parsley and garlic. My sister enjoyed her angel hair and Alfredo sauce as well as they both enjoyed the soup. Super salad comes with your dinner and as you can see, the soup was very large. My husband had a house salad, and he added blackened shrimp, which came with a good amount of shrimp, avocado, raisins, and almonds. He liked the salad very much. I ordered a special the gnocchi with marinara sauce, and burrata . Overall, the sauce was very good, but I disliked how much sauce was given. For me, I felt like it was too much sauce and my pasta was swimming in it. I would request less sauce the next time I go. Overall, the price was not bad at all. We all enjoy our meal and every single one of us brought food home. Oh, on the sidenote, a good amount of their soups are made vegetarian. This is difficult to find so if you are looking for a vegetarian soup, they told me the escarole and beans, pasta, , pasta fagiol and the lentils were all done.
