Would never go back again. The sandwich had very little meat now for the price they're charging. Also didn't feel like it had any taste. Save your money and buy a better cheesesteak at a local deli read more

Bay Ridge continues its steep decline in the food scene with this cheesesteak wannabe restaurant. I have been to Philadelphia and had my fair share of cheesesteaks there. Some really good, some not so good, most somewhere in between. This one falls closer to the second option, and not just because this cash only joint (boo...) charges $13 for one, and it is pretty small. For an extra $9, you get fries and a drink. I took the deal, not realizing the fries are your traditional "bowling alley fries". I took one bite and threw the rest away. $9 extra wasted away. As for the steak itself, it is quite hit or miss. They also try to jazz it up to the point where it can be completely unrecognizable if you wish. No thanks. A good steak is just ribeye steak and a choice of three cheeses, Cheez Whiz, White American, or Provolone. Stop the nonsense with Yellow American. Also, the roll should be strictly Amoroso. I did not see that here. I already deduct two stars for lack of authenticity. The final star deduction comes in the form of an inconsistent steak. Throughout the experience, I was getting different bites each time I took a bite. Some bites were really good, others were flat. The steak is also cooked with far too much salt for my liking. I also felt the customer service was flat too. There was no knowledge of the menu items except for the sesame roll. The roll is also too chewy for this kind of sandwich. They also serve pizza, but it does not make any sense to me why. Honestly, it did not look good in the display case when I saw it. I am taking it off my favorites and will not be returning. Not every cheesesteak has to be a John's Roast Pork or a Tony Luke's, but a little more effort could put this little hole in the wall joint in Bay Ridge closer to them. read more

Social Media brought me to this spot! I'm not sure if the video mentioned it's a *Cash Only* spot but I will in this review. I pass this place daily, zoomin' by I'd see Philadelphia something. The video gave a full explanation and why I need to put Philadelphia Grille in my lunch rotation. Walking inside, I know what I want. Steak with white american cheese with the works (onions, peppers, and hot peppers) There's an option for mayo, I'm not sure who's getting mayo on their cheesesteak but hey, you do you! The owner comes to the front and I tell him I saw this spot on social media. Everything looks amazing, I can't wait to try my sandwich. How long have you been in business? I'm expecting 18 months, he tells me over 30 years?? Wow! Not only is Philadelphia Grille a sandwich shop but they're also serving pizza for decades. I must point out, Philadelphia Grille is a very small spot. Walking inside, you're faced with a small counter. Once you have your food, they have tables and chairs in a covered lanai. I'd be a chilly Billy eating my sandwich so I took it to go. Once I get back to my Brooklyn Fortress of Solitude I dig in. The cheesesteak my way? Dynamite. Italian bread from Brooklyn wrapping up a cheesy meat fest. Philadelphia Grille did everything right in Brooklyn! I can't wait to come back and try the roast pork. And then mix it up the following week with a grilled chicken sammy. read more

I really don't understand the negative reviews. Different strokes for different folks, but I think their cheesesteaks are truly great. I've never had a better one in NYC and while I've only had them in Philly a few times, these are as good or better. This is a very small place with just a few stools for seating. In nice weather, I take the sandwich over to the nearby park and eat it there. Their pizza looks decent enough, but I've never tried it. A cheesesteak/pizza place recently opened in my Queens neighborhood with signage claiming to be rated #1 in the U.S. It was vastly inferior to Philadelphia Grille.. They gave a large portion, but the meat was tasteless, there were too few onions and the bread was vastly inferior. Plus, I asked for it with marinara sauce and rather than mixing it in on the grille, they gave me a small cup with cold sauce. Never again. I'd rather drive 45 minutes to Philadelphia Grille. I get my cheesesteaks with onions, without cheese, and with marinara sauce. One disadvantage for drivers is that it is usually hard to find parking around there. read more

What can I say about the is place. The cheesesteaks are amazing. Get the cheesesteak with the works combo. The cheesesteak is amazing. The onions, peppers, and hot peppers are fresh. It's top with cheese and you choose the bread. Woo hoo. I always chase my cheesesteak with an order of mozzarella sticks. The price is right, the pace is clean, and staff is friendly. Check them out, you don't be disappointed. read more

Great food, no frills, no seating...definitely worth take out on a Friday! While NYC is not known for its cheesesteak, this hole in the wall (in the best possible way) makes one mean sandwich. The meat is tender and well seasoned, the bread is soft, and they have the provolone or cheez whiz option! They also have burgers and other sandwiches, but really...just try the cheesesteak! It's why locals love them. The service is efficient and quick, which is fitting for this take out joint. Give it a try if you're ever in south BK. read more

Ordered a cheesesteak on 2 different occasions & both times the staff was not wearing gloves & was picking up the sandwich to cut it and put in the to go box with their BARE HANDS. I have seen other reviews on here saying the same thing where the chef touches all the food without wearing gloves. No idea why they think thats acceptable. Other establishments make their staff wear gloves and not touch peoples food with their bare hands. read more

No seasoning, no flavor. Asked for salt an pepper, got nothing. Tastes very bland, best part of it was the bread

Our neighbors couldn't stop raving about this place so we placed a delivery order on a Friday night and had dinner together. Food came on time, hot and packaged well. Our delivery guy was really nice! We had 3 orders of the ziti with vodka sauce and chicken, a regular large cheese pizza for my 4 boys, a cheesesteak with the works for my husband and a linguini with Alfredo for everyone to try/share. The bread that came with the pasta was perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The vodka pasta was really good! Definitely my favorite of our entire order. I'd pass on the Alfredo next time, but would love to try the pasta with a different sauce and a gourmet pizza. My kids enjoyed the pizza and my husband really liked his cheesesteak sandwich too. It was a little spicy for my taste but I liked the flavors. We had plenty of leftovers the next morning and had it at 9am for breakfast. Overall, we really liked our dinner and I would order from here again. read more

Food is amazing. I have gone in many times tried pizza & cheesesteak is so delicious!!!!

This place is a must they only except cash ... you have to try the cheesesteak with onion and peppers. They also make a chicken steak with onion and peppers and their regular pizza is really not that bad.... read more

Amazing food and amazing service and they deliver to your house inside on Military base Fort Hamilton!!! Just make sure you have cash!! And enjoy all the pizza,sandwiches and pastas!! Delicious!!! Fantastic!! read more

Tasted pretty good. The steak in the cheesesteak was a little lacking; the chicken I thought was a better-sized portion. Also have had their pizza and it's good but not mind-blowing. Since there are so many pizza options in Bay Ridge/Fort Hamilton, it's not a standout, but it's still pretty decent. Cash only. read more

Cash only and very intense inside but so worth it. The food is awesome. The prices are very fair. Best cheesesteak. Good pasta dinners. Very good pizza. Just nowhere to sit except a couple of tiny tables outside on the street. It's strictly to go but that's ok. read more

Guys, what happened? I was in the area for the first time in a few years and stopped by to get a cheesesteak. The bread was soggy, untoasted.. The steak portion half what it used to be. There were maybe a few slivers of onion. I dont recall what I paid years ago but it was certainly nowhere near as much as I was charged this time. Never coming here again. read more

First time trying the food and everything was superb If you are in the area of bay ridge you will need to check this place out. read more

Being a New Yorker, I've had many pizza in my life. While this is pretty much the only local place within this are of Brooklyn, I have to say it left much to be desired. For one, their pies were soggy. They also did not use Italian sausage. I felt like they used pork sausage in their pizzas. Maybe it's a one off thing but the pizza I ordered was not impressive. read more

so I didnt even know they sold pizza lol, I been ordering from here for 15 years. hands down the best cheesesteak sandwhich I ever had, not heavy not oily, just really really good, it's not super cheap but worth every penny. I cannot recommend it enough! quality cheesesteaks. recommend trying it! nice staff too super small place takeout read more

Excellent food and service. I have been a customer for over 20 years! If in the neighborhood give it a try you wont be disappointed!!

After waiting way too long to try Philadelphia Grille, we tried it! We ordered "Take out," Philly Cheese and a Spinach Roll, both were the best we have experienced. Start to finish, the service was impeccable. Made a great choice and now I am a new customer! read more

This place is overrated. I don't understand why people like it. It's overpriced and the food is mediocre. Definitely better places is Brooklyn. Over $10 for a chicken roll and the nerve to charge you extra if you want sauce most pizzerias chicken roll comes with the sauce already. read more

Best Philly cheesesteaks in bay ridge n they make this delicious penne chicken marsala

Looking for the best cheesesteaks in Brooklyn - well ladies and gentlemen I present to you Philadelphia Grille !!! They have the best cheesesteaks I've ever had (and yes I tried Genos in PA) ... so that should say it all. Me and my husband get this all time - they are just soooo amazing ! We recently also tried their chicken parm hero - delicious!! They have great pizza as well. They are cash only just an FYI read more

Fucking clown shoes. There's no way to explain how good that cheese steak was. I really wanted to eat half and save the rest for midway through my shift. Wrong, wrong. Ate that so fast I had enough time to order another one to take home. 5 stars is not enough. Only place I've eaten a cheese steak to rival it was Dalessandro. read more

Best cheesesteak in Bayridge. Get the works. Don't forget the hot peppers. Highly recommend. Great service. Cash only.

We ordered from Philadelphia Grille tonight again, and we were not disappointed. The food was great and the service was excellent! Everyone we spoke with was courteous and polite. We will definitely be ordering from them again! Great customer service, just an added bonus to great food. read more

Really was in the mood for a Philly and my husband looked up this place, it's bit of a drive but it was worth it. Not a dine in, just order and go! We got a delicious slice of Vodka pizza. When I tell you it was the best Vodka pizza we've ever eaten, it was the best. Every single bite was crunchy and tasty( taste soo good I forgot to take a pic), then came the Philly cheesesteak.....soooo good! I got steak with white American cheese, lettuce, tomato, peppers and Mayo. Every bite I was doing my happy dance. All in all! Very tasty spot, nice cooks and cool ambiance, the service was perfect and we will definitely be going back again. read more

Like other reviews, this really is a great philly cheese steak the bread was soft and crunchy. The pizza was just ok..

Pizza is ahhh there vodka slice is good tho.there steak sandwich is one of my favorites tho.reason for only 2 stars is service usually sucks and I just don't understand why they touch all the food with there hands is disgusting only one glove on but they still touch the food with the other hand listen I'll pay for your other glove to service me.witnessed guy taking money with the ungloved hand than turn around grab sandwich with both hands to cut it witnessed cook grab raw steak with liquid oozing on his fingers and just casually wipes on apron and still touch's your fully cooked meal with his hand comon guys who knows what else happens behind closed doors read more

Awesome as always!!! Quick service. If you don't know how to order them step aside. They got it all!!!

Wow! Hands down, the BEST VEGGIE PIZZA we have ever eaten! My wife and I moved from NY to MD, but whenever we travel, we look for a good NY style pizza. We just hapened to be in NY this weekend, staying at FT Hamilton in Brooklyn, when we saw a flyer for this restaurant. Are we glad we decided to try it. I don't generally do reviews but I had to give these folks their props, because this pizza is THAT GOOD! I was pleasantly surprised at the accomodations at Ft Hamilton, and got an even better surprise eating at Philadelphia Grille! Try it, you won't be disappointed. Trust us. Ken & Gloria read more
