Great cheesesteak. My main beef is that it's cash only in person, so when I wanted to add a drink to the sandwich I had ordered ahead using a credit card, I couldn't. I get loving cash, I don't get prohibiting cards.

Thin Cut Idaho Fries
Jason C.

Very cozy and clean sandwich shop. Service was excellent, very friendly and fast. Meatball Parm was delicious. Thin cut Idaho fries were great. Cheesesteak was amazing. Place is cash only be aware. Everything came out fast and was very fresh.

Caroline C.

Yeah these are amazing sandwiches!!!!! Great location and nice service. The chicken cutlet wasn't too huge but it was also a filling size. Looking forward to giving their cheesesteaks a try next time

The Eye Sandwich add mushrooms
Taylor E.

Quick and easy, i ordered online and pickup time was about 20 mins. Got there and my order was ready, piping hot . I will say there was a weird smell, it just did not smell like food was cooking at all when i walked in. My sandwich was amazing though lol. Most likely would not sit in and eat.

The Eye
Ariel S.

I was craving a delicious sandwich and a friend recommended Nipotina. I ordered The Nipotina and The Eye and they were both so delicious! You can really tell they use high quality, fresh ingredients! I ordered a pick up online and my order was made very quickly, which I appreciated. The inside of the restaurant is very nice and clean. I'll have to dine in the next time I'm in Philly! I'd definitely recommend getting a ribeye steak sandwich and a cutlet sandwich so you get the best of both worlds! Thank you Nipotina!

The Millie with Pickle Chips

Great sandwiches! Nice clean dine-in space, much better than most South Philly sandwich spots. We'll be back!

Hangover Cure. Delicious

I came here to grab some sandwiches to bring to ARS brewery. If you don't want to pay with cash, you can order online for pickup. I highly recommend ordering through the website because you can customize your sandwich by adding or removing more items . For example, for my chicken cutlet sandwich The Slice, I removed arugula and added eggplant. It was messy but delicious. The eggplant was thick, cutlet was crispy, The guy at the counter was super courteous and friendly.

Order delivery. Sandwiches were delicious. The Roe was huge and filling. The chicken parm was very good. Lastly, the cheesesteak was right up there with some of the best I've had. Steak was tender, cheese was melted in, and the bread was soft. Overall, excellent and highly recommend.

Great location. I could not wait to get a sandwich here. This family owned business is in addition to Slice and Pun'k which are constantly delicious. Beautiful exterior and interior. Spacious Ample seating or take out. Rewards program. Cash only unless you place an online order via the website. I ordered the Hottie (vegan on a gluten free roll) for takeout. I absolutely love love love their fries. I am looking forward to trying another sandwich, with fries of course.

The Slice- Chicken cutlet, fried mozzarella, marinara, arugula
Alyse J.

Yum! I am so happy I tried Nipotina because it was delicious! At first, the prices are kind of high but honestly it is very worth it and the quality is there! I got 'The Slice' with chicken cutlet, fried mozzarella, marinara, arugula. It was flavorful and delicious and I was able to save some leftovers for later due to the size of the entire sandwich. I also got a side of fries, which I could maybe have done without. Nipotina also offered breakfast items, which I am excited to try. The staff were friendly and the sandwich was made relatively quickly. There is space to dine in, which is nice, but I did choose to take mine to go and eat at home. FYI, cash only, but they do have an ATM. Overall, I highly recommend Nipotina and I will be back!

Came here for lunch today because of their selection of vegan sandwiches. As a non vegan, I opted for the Hippie Chic with bacon jam, chopped chicken, goat cheese and arugula. I was expecting the chicken to be chopped more but it was still quite tasty. The bacon jam was pretty sweet but the peppery arugula and creamy goat cheese helped balance it out. I had high hopes for the fried pickles since they have a bunch of pickles on the menu, but they were just okay (I personally prefer breaded vs battered). The fries and tots were decent. The vegan sandwiches were delicious as well. Service was fast and friendly. But keep in mind they are cash only!! There's an ATM on site for you

Philadelphia Cheesesteak Adventure
James P.

Different cheesesteak #1115 in the last five years. I had a guest eater so I got a cheesesteak with mushrooms and a little louie. I liked the place, the names of the sandwiches and the moist half of my cheesesteak. The cheesesteak was seasoned very well. The moist seasoned half of my cheesesteak was very very good. The rest, no. The broccoli rabe on Little Louie was difficult to eat. Little Louie was a big disappointment.

Rob P.

I've eaten here twice, both times it was exceptional. We are snobby about cheesesteaks. If you want to get a table and eat your cheesesteak, as opposed to picking it up somewhere.. Nipotina is the place to go in S Philly. Also had a bacon, egg and cheese on a long roll... best breakfast sandwich i've had in a long time. Great prices and service.

Great quality crafted creative sandwiches. The absolute best is their cheesesteak. You will wake up…read morecraving another one. House made, superior lightly truffles cheese sauce is what whiz wishes it was. Very rich. You may want to share. Fries are $7 but large portion -- also share. Live that they have great quality beverages to match great sandwiches. That is, Maine Root sodas (LOVE the Sasparilla) or Joe's iced tea. (I like black, unsweetened to balance the richness of the sandwich.) Cozy but comfy seating with raw real wood banquets and tables. Even when crowded, a table will come available by the time your order is ready. Good turn over. Pleasant, helpful staff.

There's not a whole lot of space, and you probably won't be able to bring a large party in here more 4-6 people. But if you're dining in in a smaller group, you should have a good time. They keep things relatively clean. I personally lean on the cheesesteak purist side of the scale, and so although this cheesesteak tastes pretty darn good, I am of the opinion that most things that you slap truffle on will instantly be above average good, just because it tastes like truffle. Otherwise, the cheesesteak here is pretty close to slightly above average-- and personally I'd spend my money elsewhere if it weren't for the novelty. Otherwise, the roast pork here is underrated and overshadowed by its truffle cousin. Grab that if you get overpowered by truffle flavor easily. To-go orders have been consistently on time and ready once I arrived. Would gladly order here again, but would definitely prefer something pure, ex. without truffle.

We HAD to stop at the famous Angelo's Pizzeria while visiting Philadelphia! We'd heard all the hype…read moreabout this place being one of the best spots in the city for both cheesesteaks and pizza, and after finally trying it for ourselves, we totally understand why it's so popular! Let's start with the cheesesteak, because WOW, this thing was fantastic! The meat was juicy, the cheese was phenomenal, and the onions were cooked perfectly. Even the bread deserves a shoutout because it was absolutely unreal! Every part of the sandwich came together so well, and it's easy to see why people rave about it. This is what a great cheesesteak should be! We also ordered a cheese pizza, and that was just as impressive. The quality was immediately obvious. The dough and crust were perfectly crispy without having too much flop, the tomato sauce was incredibly flavourful, and the fresh basil was a fantastic addition. Sometimes the simplest pizzas are the best, and Angelo's absolutely nails the basics. Great ingredients, great execution, and incredible flavour! One thing to keep in mind is that you should be prepared to wait in line. This place is famous for a reason, and it definitely draws a crowd. Also, they don't sell pizza by the slice, so if you want to try their pizza, be ready to order a whole pie. It's a straightforward business model, but they execute it exceptionally well. Overall, we can't recommend Angelo's enough! The cheesesteak was incredible, the pizza was top-notch, and everything we tried made it clear why this place has such a reputation. If you're visiting Philadelphia, we absolutely think Angelo's deserves a spot on your must-visit list. Just bring your appetite and be prepared to wait!

Fast forward 12 years, and now its Antonio's Deli...let me tell you something......still AMAZING! My Brother and I came here for a breakfast hoagie. We got an Olde Italian to split since we were going to Reading Terminal Market right after. How was the hoagie? Delicious! The Olde Italian comes on the best bread in the land IMO (Sarcones...seeded roll...you just cant beat it!). So crusty and great texture. This sandwich had all the goodies on it including proscuitto, capicola and sopressata. They use a crumbled sharp provolone cheese here (think blue cheese crumbles, but sharp provolone!) that is so freaking good! The veggies include roasted red peppers, lettuce tomato and onion. They top it with some olive oil and seasonings. Hoagie perfection! This was my favorite sandwich that I ate in Philadelphia and my favorite sandwich on my 1 week trip back East! I LOVED IT. If you are in Philadelphia and want the best hoagie around, come here! I can't wait to go back to Philadelphia one of these years and try out some more of their sandwiches. Just perfect! Thanks, Antonio's!

It's that neighbourhood spot that people keep coming back to all the time, and the bartender knows exactly what they're drinking and has it at the ready as soon as they're sitting down. It's that spot where a bunch of punks with tattoos on their heads, and incendiary slogans on their t-shirts chow down on vegan pizza. It's the spot where that vegan college kid whose parents are in from out of town, and won't go to one of those "weird vegan places" so here we all are, with them ordering meat, and the vegan kid getting a meal that isn't French fries. It's both homey and inviting while being fun too. It's a huge spot, with lots of little alcoves and corners to tuck your group into, so that you can have privacy to hang out while still being part of the community. On a Sunday morning, the TV had Shrek playing on there. The Bloody Mary has pickle brine in it. The mimosas come from sparkling wine that's on tap. The water is served in those old school hard plastic red drinking glasses like you got at the Pizza Hut buffet back in the day. The fried food is served in those little plastic trays lined with parchment paper. Genuinely, this feels like finding buried treasure and I'm sad at all the time I've wasted not coming here before now. This place is absolutely awesome. Now the food. Polenta fries were creamy on the inside, and crisp on the outside, and not greasy at all. Vegan fried dough was piled high with cinnamon and sugar, and served with the side of maple syrup. The vegan sausage and peppers sandwich was piled high with both! Seriously guys, the portions here are generous, and the food is delicious. If something sounds good, it's probably going to be good. Service is friendly and the servers are knowledgeable about the food. Our waitress didn't have to go ask the kitchen or bar about anything we had questions on. She knew right off the top of her head, and got us sorted very quickly. You feel safe when you're in the hands of folk this good at their job.

The place has dark, dive bar vibes with…read moreloud music, but there's more seating than you'd typically expect, including a separate dining area away from the bar. Our waiter took our order, and the food came out shortly afterward. We ordered the Philly cheesesteak, mozzarella sticks, and French fries. Since we didn't need anything else, we were fine with the limited interaction with our waiter, who was busy attending to other tables. Unfortunately, the food was underwhelming. The Philly cheesesteak came on a firm hoagie roll but seriously lacked flavor beyond the salt. The cheese on top was thin, watery, and equally bland. The mozzarella sticks had a similar issue with the cheese, which was so thin and watery that we had to break them open and let them cool before eating. As a vegan of over 10 years, I understand that vegan cheese can be tricky to work with, but I was surprised by how little flavor it had. The breading, at least, was pretty tasty. Just be careful with the marinara, because ours was scalding hot and burned my tongue. The French fries were the highlight of the meal. They tasted like real, classic French fries and were honestly the most enjoyable part of our dinner, which says a lot. We paid $34 for everything, which was reasonable overall. The experience was fine, but nothing really stood out, and the food left a lot to be desired. I'm glad we gave it a try, but I don't see myself returning.
