Cheesesteak dropping looks like ground meat to me
Joe S.

Ground meat cheesesteak? No thanks! I was underwhelmed by my "Kappy's Cheesesteak" with steak (loose term), cheese (barely any) and grilled onions (diced and cooked in with the meat). The meat was either chopped very fine or was just ground. Look at the stuff that fell out... looks like ground to me. It was "iconic" in the same way White Castle or McDonalds is iconic. I was debating between this cheesesteak and the Italian (regular) and went with the cheesesteak due to all the reviews. But it was basic and nothing spectacular. It WAS served pretty hot which was awesome. The place was old school for sure with a window to order outside, a few tables scattered around (some covered, some in the sun), and a pretty simple menu. You could also sit inside (on stools like an old diner) which I'd imagine is good on a super hot day, but have no idea if it's actually hotter INSIDE than out. I added it to my list as it closed for good and had lines around the block for one last sub. Then something happened and they reopened and the hype died down a bit. If I go back, I'm skipping the cheesesteak and trying something else. And it's a big if as I just wasn't impressed based on all the good reviews.

it's old af but it's a goodie. The food is pretty basic but it's quality and diner style. The service is amazing, they are fast and efficient and although they may have young boys working there they are some of the most polite, well thoughtful, can hold a better / decent conversation than boomers these days. I love the fact you can eat inside the cozy hole in the wall or eat outside OR use their outside window for takeout. What a great place. I enjoy the italian sausage with onions and spicy mustard. I try to go when I drop my kid off for chef class.

Fried mushrooms were good

Went to Kappy's for the first time. Dined inside. Definitely small old school diner vibe inside. Service was a bit slow but very friendly. The subs well worth the wait. Delicious! We had the Hot pastrami and the cheesesteak with sides of fries and fried mushrooms. Everything is served hot and fresh. Absolutely no complaints. Great food especially for the price. Highly recommended trying Kappy's. 5 stars.

KAPPV'S CHEESESTEAK 10.75
 Our original creation made with ground chuck, grilled onions, and American cheese

We are so happy that Kappy's Subs did not end up closing after all. We got to try them out this year for the first time and absolutely loved the food there, as expected. This is much more than your little hole-in-the wall sandwich shop; it is a neighborhood favorite gem that feels as though you've stepped back in time both with the cozy diner vibes and the prices are great value. People of all ages were there, seated both inside and outside. We sat at the bar and ordered KAPPV'S CHEESESTEAK ($10.75). which is their original creation made with ground chuck, grilled onions, and American cheese. It's served very hot and I had to pace myself. Originally I thought I would need to take half of it home with me, but the universe said NOPE, NOT TODAY. I devoured the entire thing and did some deep yoga breathing to cope afterwards. We're so lucky to have Kappy's in the neighborhood and hope to have them around for years to come. Go check them out and support local.

Philly Cheese Steak

Finally made it to what's been a dubbed a Florida MUST - & I agree! I was looking for a sandwich on the way to Orlando from Daytona and this happened to line up perfectly. My initial description was, this tastes "like the 90s". That made sense to a friend, do with that what you will. Nowadays sandwiches don't tastes as fresh, they aren't dressed properly, and these came ready for the occasion in every way. I was in a rush, the pick up instructions were simple, and I only wish I had gotten more. This is a must try all over again, glad its not too far away.

Cheesesteak Sandwich Exellente

Food service was amazing. I ordered the cheesesteak with the waffle fries. Amazing. The only complaint I would have is that the cheesecake could be a little bit bigger. It was kind of small for the price but overall the food the service everything was on point.

The fries; no condiments needed. Perfectly seasoned!

Remember that out pour of folks coming together to save Kappy's? Well I had not had the pleasure at that time, but now, I get it. So shout out to the people coming together for keeping Kappy's open because this slapped. I was recommended The Kappy's Cheesesteak and when I heard it was prepped chopped cheese style, something I'm also not familiar with, a "no" was far from my vocabulary and it delivered on that recommendation. Nice to chat with some other patrons and the guys workin; definitely chopped it up about Philly and other steak spots worth visiting while sitting outside. Inside looked like a vibe too, so after a hard days work, imma make it inside come my next visit. 4/5 only because I wanna try more of the menu. Give me 2/2 experiences and I can't imagine anything less than that 5.

An Orlando staple for sandwiches, burgers and such. And they serve the best french fries around, never greasy and cooked just right. The staff is always friendly and willing to help make your meal just right. Old school diner feel with an outdoor patio area great for a date night!

Kappy Cheesesteak... boringggg!
Amber C.

Maybe I ordered the wrong thing... but it was barely just okay. I would normally order the Reuben at any new deli style restaurant that I try but I resisted the urge given they had a sandwich bearing its own name. So against my better judgement, I stepped out on a limb and ordered the Kappy Special with American cheese, peppers, onions, mushrooms (didn't realize they'd be canned) and banana peppers, fries and a drink. It was made to order and super fresh and it didn't take very long. The guy was helpful enough when I ordered. It really was a decent overall experience but I just ordered the wrong thing. I didn't realize I'd be getting an actual ground beef Cheesesteak. So ground beef with a little salt, onion powder.. and a few toppings literally NOTHING fancy. I work nearby but I doubt I'll come back, I'm just not impressed. I also wouldn't want to waste another $17 to be disappointed.

Second time here and I forgot to take pictures because I was so ready to eat! Same amazing service,…read moresame great ambiance, and delicious food! Love this place so much and will happily drive across town to come back again and again!

My coworkers and I used to visit Doghouse every now and again a couple of years ago. I came to…read moreexpect good food and good customer service. This visit was disappointing. Before my Mom and I went, we checked the closing hours. According to our online search, the restaurant closed at 9:30pm. We weren't far away and confirmed via GPS that we would get there by 9:03pm. As we were arriving, I noticed a worker had started removing the outdoor sidewalk sign back inside the restaurant. I asked the worker if they were closing and was told yes. The owner or manager, I would assume he was, stated we could come in. We drove around the building to a dark parking lot. Once we parked, the owner/manager, who was taking out the trash, questioned where I parked. I had parked behind, probably, his car which was closest to where we had to walk around to the front to enter the restaurant. I told him I quickly parked so we can get in and order. Once we entered the restaurant, we tried ordering. The owner/manager was very inpatient once he realized we were ordering food and not ice cream as he said he thought we wanted. I ordered a Chilli Cheese Dog (no bun). Mom got a Regular Hotdog (with condiments) and Plain Tater Tots. As we waited for our food, at least five people came in for ice cream. Our food was prepared in a reasonable time. We left approximately 9:23pm. Mom was satisfied with her food. My Chilli Cheese Dog was short on the Chilli. There was not a lot of Chilli on the hotdog. I don't plan on returning to this establishment.
