This small local cheesesteak restaurant quickly became one of my go-to's and is now part of my…read moreregular food rotation. First off, the cheesesteaks are delicious. So far I've tried the supreme cheesesteak and the hot cheesesteak; both are really good and highly recommended. You can't go wrong with the top three, which I believe are the original, the hot, and the supreme. I think the highlight of these cheesesteaks is definitely the bread. It's soft but not too moist, providing the perfect texture. It's not hard at all, like a Banh Mi Vietnamese sandwich, but there is still a nice crust and crunch to the bread with a perfect taste. The pictures don't do it justice from the surface, but as you bite into it, they mix the melted cheese of your choice very well with the steak for a nice burst of flavor. Pair it with their amazing original French fries that remind me of some really good fast food fries, like from McDonald's or other local fry spots. The service is what you expect from a local small restaurant. They're nice, chill, and very simple. You order, and they call you when your order is done. They treat you well, especially if you ask for extra condiments such as mayo and ketchup, though ranch does cost extra. They serve it on a nice little metal tin platter with parchment paper, which makes it feel and taste great, especially when you eat it fresh inside the restaurant. To my surprise, the first few times we ordered from here, we got it to go, and it was still good by the time we brought it home. Regarding the size, I would say normally you can't go wrong with the standard size, which is the regular or the small. It is filling already. If you're extra hungry or just really feeling a cheesesteak, the large will definitely do you justice and make you feel satisfied. In my photos, I've attached pictures of the supreme and the hot cheesesteak. You can't go wrong with either, but my choice is definitely the hot. I've also tried their other items, such as the standard hot dog, which comes with the same bread. Based on other photos people have posted, it looks delicious as well. It is like a standard hot dog, but I'm telling you, the bread is something very unique about this restaurant. I think that's what makes you want to come back. The bread, plus the way they cook the cheesesteaks and everything put together, makes this place stand out. The vibe inside is very chill, serving more as a quick-eat area. It is a nice place to just get lunch or a quick dinner. It's pretty small, maybe fitting only 30 or so people, and they're located right next to the movie theater. I feel like this shop is a small hole-in-the-wall, and I highly recommend it. I don't think you would regret it.

So I decided on the Supreme Cheesesteak, which had everything, mushrooms, onions, peppers, and I added wiz and white American. Also got the cheese dog for my son. We sat down for what felt like only 5 minutes and the food was ready. I was super impressed. Spoke with the owners daughter and she said her dad and mom have been making these for 20 years. I was eager to try. First impressions are OH MY GOD these are huge. Second impressions, OH MY GOD these are so freakin good. I've had cheesesteaks all across Sacramento and Roseville after a friend got me hooked on them. We went up down and around the county to try all of the highly rated restaurants. This one we never made it to. Out of all the places, this sits at the top of my list as number 1. They use real Amoroso rolls. They have cheese wiz that is thick and gooey. They have Cooper Sharp!!!! Other places we tried felt like imitation at best. Cheesesteaks felt like an original Philly shop. Why was it good? Beef was chopped perfectly about 1/4 inch pieces. The meat was juicy AND seasoned to complement the salty cheeses. The roll was toasted just a bit to give the sandwich a firm base because there was so much juice from the beef. But it never once was hard to bite into and it never disintegrated like other places. Also...the cheese wiz didn't just melt away to nothingness. It was thick enough to coat the meat and stay gooey. You could tell the skill and knowledge of the mom and dad making these sandwiches. The hotdog was massive! It was a footlong all beef dog in a toasted bun. The cheese wiz on top was a perfect compliment. The fries were crunchy and fluffy. If McD fries are top notch, these topped McD fries. I've never been more impressed or surprised by a place as I was here. If I could give them a Michelin star, I would. So good and satisfying.

Give their Italian CS a try, it's got the works. The garlic on it isn't very strong, so could use a little more. The "Famous NY sauce" I didn't know what it was and so asked for it on the side the first time I went. Turned out it was coney meat sauce, like you'd get on chili dogs out there. It's kinda weird to have it on a cheesesteak, I'm not sure how I feel about it. You may want to try it on the side and have half plain and half with to see if you have a preference. I think it just kinda adds moisture due to the oiliness. I wanna try their nacho cheese CS next time, looks extra cheesy. Price is a lil high it seems, but I guess relative to what footlong Subway or local deli shop prices are, not crazy. And I'd say they give you plenty of meat, a footlong will stuff ya. Krinkle fries were fine, I got a good amount for takeout. And at least they have "normal" hours, so I can get dinner there at a normal hour, unlike my old spot. Closed Mondays.

You can sit counter side and eat or take to go . First impression, I see the wall and she has serviced alot of people well known ! I was impressed . Then I actually met her . Her vibe and energy was so sweet and chill . I enjoyed talking to her . And you can tell she really cares about her customers . That particular day she was giving out a free sample of something her son made . Yes ! She also has her two sons working with her such a beautiful thing . She offers a variety of soul food and seafood options as well as burgers and more ! The first time I had some of her food my man brought home shrimp and grits and they were good but this day we walked in ! I told her about trying her grits from home and I wanted them again . She asked do you want regular or gumbo ? I said surprise me ! Ofcourse she gave me the gumbo grits and let me tell you ! Phenomenal! Every time I took a bite I danced in my seat I kid you not ! The rou was just right , it had shrimp sausage and crab meat ! The shrimp were plump not over cooked ! And a nice fulfilling portion ! I also got the fried catfish with fries and a side of bacon . Fried just right and again seasoned well not salty at all . Nice thick pieces of fish . The Oreo cheesecake was amazing ! Made from scratch ! Also a lady had came in after me she asked what she should get , I told her about the sample I tried of the loaded chicken fries and she said yup I'm getting that ( pictured in my photos ) everything comes out hot !!! Soo appreciated because we know a lot of places have stuff sitting under a heat lamp or warm up something premade . Not with her . Everything hot ! It's just her and her sons . It's a small kitchen so expect a wait but like I always say I don't mind waiting because I know I'm getting fresh hot food cooked with love and that's exactly what she does . I'm definitely coming back to try more items as should you ! I know people including myself can be picky when it comes to soul food because it's really based on who made the soul food in your family and your preference . As being one of those people I was highly pleased and impressed with everything I ate ! She's also under bust down bbq on Yelp as well . Check her out if you want to try some food from the soul fareal !

I feel like this place has been my secret spot for over 20 years…read more I used to go to this spot when they were located at their other location that doesn't even exist anymore,they tore down their old building and it's a McDonalds now around the corner. The food here has always been excellent. The prices here have always been excellent. This place exists in a time warp.Walking into this place today is exactly like walking into it 20 years ago. The recipes have never changed. The food looks exactly the same. The chicken wings today look exactly like they did the first time I ordered them 20 years ago. The customer service is the same now as it was 20 years ago,which I would describe as curt at best but not in a rude way just as in an efficient way. But mistakes are never made,food always comes out like u ordered it-the gentleman who runs this place has always ran it like a well oiled machine. The interior is not fancy.Tables and chairs look like they may have existed from the 90s. I love this place for being nostalgic without even the tiniest of efforts,they are just that. Let me tell you about my latest visit. The last few years I always order the same sandwich-I order a large #16 Italian Steak($10.79). It comes with steak, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, mild peppers, cheese & Sam's special sauce. It comes out phenomenal every time. No fancy bells and whistles this is just good food at a great price and consistent product. I love it. They got a huge jar that's full of pickles and u serve yourself and a plethora of hot sauces and A-1 you can add to your sandwich. Like I mentioned earlier, I've been coming here for 20+ years and as a true foodie this is the nuts and bolts of what a good sandwich should look , taste and cost. I hope they never change.

I almost always check Yelp before trying a new restaurant, but I was out running errands nearby,…read moregot hungry, and decided to give this place a chance. The first thing I noticed was that there wasn't a single customer inside. For a restaurant located next to a busy Walmart Neighborhood Market, this should be a high-traffic location. That was my first red flag. When I walked in, the bell rang, and instead of greeting me, I heard the employee yell something from the back. He sounded irritated that someone had come in. After waiting a few minutes, he finally came out to take my order. If your restaurant has no customers, you'd think you'd be happy to see one. I ordered the fish and chips and a Cobb salad. The fries were actually good, but the fish looked and tasted like frozen fish sticks I could have made at home. It had no flavor or seasoning. Then came the Cobb salad. I order Cobb salads often because they're usually hard to mess up, but this was honestly the worst-looking Cobb salad I've ever been served. The "cheese" looked like sliced sandwich cheese, and the meat looked like chopped lunch meat instead of the traditional ingredients you'd expect in a Cobb salad. The only positive was that the lettuce was fresh. As a first-time customer, I left disappointed, and unfortunately, I won't be returning. I don't know if the owners read their Yelp reviews, but I genuinely hope they do. This business has a great location and the potential to attract a lot of customers. Better customer service and higher-quality food could make a huge difference. I truly hope they make improvements because I'd hate to see a small business in such a prime location struggle when the issues seem fixable.

To those that are on the hunt for a unique burger experience, I highly recommend giving "Flaming…read moreGrill Cafe" a try. I have actually been to their original location (at 2319 El Camino Ave) which was more or less an outdoor-only business that was around from 2009 to 2017. Ever since 2018, they have been operating inside the once busy and thriving Country Club Plaza. To me, this seems quite odd since many brick-and-mortar businesses in that mall have shuttered. However, this mall has seen a small revitalization with an adjacent Winco Foods, an indoor trampoline park, and a multi-screen movie theater. Going back to the restaurant itself, the interior size of this business is far larger than their previous location complete with ample seating, a dedicated bar area, and exterior seating (even though this is an enclosed mall space). They carry multiple beers on tap, a very generous amount of appetizers, sandwiches, and burgers on their menu. Now if you're into eating a burger other than the standard ground beef/ground chuck, this place is as elaborate as you will get. Here you will find venison, buffalo, boar, elk, and many more unique meats to try out. In the past, I have also seen ostrich and kangaroo as an option. During my visit, I came with my lady on the evening of Friday 10/16/2026 at around 7:05pm. I will say that the overall layout of this place has a very dark vibe and feel to it. Meaning that since you're in an enclosed mall, it will feel dark even if it is a bright and sunny day outside. And with warm amber colored lights paired up with unique orange & brown wall art, it almost has a dim bar-like feel. Either way, it is an interesting layout for many that have never been here. I will say that when we arrived, it was busy as many of us were waiting to be seated. Jump forward 30 minutes later and we were eventually seated at around 7:35pm. As for as what we ordered, I went with their "Mushroom Swiss Wagyu" burger. This meat is wildly popular beef comes from Japan as it offers a very delicate yet juicy and flavorful experience. My burger comes fully loaded with Swiss cheese, mushrooms, grilled onions, spring mix, and tomatoes. My lady went with their "Original Flaming Grill" burger which offers regular beef while she chose cheddar as her cheese of choice. Since these burgers are behemothly massive, we decided on splitting an order of "Garlic Fries". Total time to receive our burgers and fries took roughly 15 minutes. I will say this; come here on an empty stomach! The specialty burgers are well over 1 lb. when you factor in the meat, bun, and other fillings. As for the taste, everything here is absolutely top notch as the burgers are cooked medium to offer that extra juiciness to every single bite. The buns were buttery, soft, and toasted to perfection. I've had hundreds of gourmet burgers in my time and this place lived up to its expectations; especially since I have not eaten at this newer location. The fries were also above average as they were golden & crispy on the outside while being soft on the inside. All in all, "Flaming Grill" is as good as it gets if you're on the hunt for a burger that is out of the ordinary. And a word of advice to all; come here on an empty stomach as this place will absolutely fill you up. The service here was amazing as our waitress was a 16 year-old female where this was her first job! Hours are very generous as they are open Tuesday through Sunday from 11am-9pm with extended hours (until 10pm) on Friday & Saturday while being closed on Mondays. Again, amazing food, awesome employees and service, and an experience worth checking out. My rating, a unanimous five stars.

The restaurant sign is hard to miss, and they have a good amount of parking available. The inside is decked out in old memorabilia, posters, and racing signage and it has an old school feel. You can order to-go, like I did, at the counter or get a table and enjoy a seated experience. The people working here are friendly and when I let them know it was my first time they were happy to answer questions. I ended up ordering the Pepper Steak sandwich, the Italian Cold Cuts sandwich, a pepperoni pizza, and a side of mac salad. The pizza is a simple one, but had plenty of cheese and is perfect if you're craving it. The medium size they offer is perfect for sharing and could easily feed 2-3 people on its own. The pepper steak sandwich is one of the items they're known for and after taking a couple bites I could see why. The mixture of cooked meat, onion, and peppers along with the fresh bread, tomatoes and seasoning is so flavorful. The sauce soaks into the bread to make each bite delicious. The Italian Cold Cut was very unique. I had heard it's a favorite, but I didn't expect something as out of the ordinary. There's laters of meat and cheese on the bread l, and then there is a sweet pickle relish (like you'd put on a hotdog) and then plenty of chopped tomato and onion and sub sauce. The sweetness of the relish through me off, but works with the sandwich. Something interesting about both sandwiches is that they didn't have sandwich toppings like lettuce that wouldn't rewarm well. The chopped tomatoes and onion are great cold, but if you decide to reheat your sandwich they're still great. I don't know if this was the plan but it worked out well. The portion sizes on everything were also fair for the price, and the food was filling. I'm excited to visit again to explore more of the menu, including their meatball sub, pastrami, and cannoli.

Beyond the stuck in 1982 nostalgic aesthetic, the shop turns out serious, hearty subs piled high with savory meats, melted cheeses, and classic fixings on soft, sturdy rolls. It's a wonderfully unpretentious neighborhood throwback that nails the comfort and generous portions of an old-school sub counter. I had the Chicken Parm and it was probably the best I've had in Sac. The Staff was nice, but this place needs a deep cleaning and a little TLC to stay relevant.
