Drove thru this street so many times and decided to come in, first thing i noticed was the music playing. The menu was a little confusing but the cashier explained the differences between all the sandwiches on a much simple book menu that they have, I tried the phillys best sandwich, honestly it was really huge and really good, although i couldn't finish it, i decided to save it for later. The area was really clean, will come again!! read more

The prices. For 2 cheesesteaks, 2 regular fries, and 2 regular drinks... $50. We expected 2 combos to be $30-35. The place is super quiet, clean and maintained. The staff of 2 were super chill and nice. read more

While I am not a big fan of Cheesesteaks sandwiches I gave Philly's Best Cheesesteaks a try while in the neighborhood. The restaurant was nice and clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful during my visit. The Sandwich was okay but their French fries were nothing worth writing home about. 3.5 stars for friendly service and reasonably priced food. read more

We tried Philly's Best Cheesesteaks and it did not disappoint! I ordered the new Cooper Classic with beef on a seeded roll, and it was packed with great flavor and plenty of meat. The roll was toasted a little more than I personally prefer, but it still held everything together nicely and made for a really satisfying sandwich. We also ordered two Philly's Best cheesesteaks with mushrooms and sweet peppers for my husband and nephew, and my husband absolutely loved his--he couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted fresh, and every sandwich was made just right. We'll definitely be back for another cheesesteak fix! read more

Great tasting Philly cheesesteaks. I must say, these things are now on the pricey side but it's 2025, so it's to be expected I guess. Got a large Philly's Best (which is essentially a cheesesteak with mushrooms and hot peppers) by itself and it came out to $15.07 after tax. If I wanted to add fries and a drink, it would have been $25. Am I crazy for thinking that $25 for a sandwich, fries and a drink is too much? They charge $5 for fries and $4 for a fountain drink, both of which I think is too much. I think they should incorporate different portion sizes instead of charging a flat $5 for fries. Maybe I'm just a cheap mf, idk. Anywho, I said eff all that and decided to stick with just the sandwich. The lady who rang me up (who I think is the manager?) was very kind and very accommodating. She checked up on me and asked if I needed anything to which I replied everything was great (but I really wanted to tell her that I need them fries to be cheaper). I would definitely come back when I get my craving for a good Philly cheesesteak but I will probably continue to pass on getting fries and a drink unless they finally decide to listen to my sage business advice. read more

My husband went in today to buy us a couple of sandwiches. When he came home with our food I quickly noticed that they got my order wrong. My husband asked for chicken for one of our sandwiches and they gave us both steak. No big deal, we live close enough that my husband returned with my untouched sandwich to let them know he was given the wrong order. Happens all the time in food establishments so we weren't upset, we figured the problem would be easily resolved just like any other restaurant would do. Unfortunately my husband was met with a negative attitude from the employee who we believe is named Millie because that is the name on the receipt. Millie proceeded to give my husband an attitude and argue with him telling him he never asked for chicken. Instead of replacing the sandwich, he was forced to purchase a new one. I have NEVER had this happen and I am shocked that this is the way the Philly's Best location in Orange handles business. As someone who managed customer service for over a decade, I can't believe that this is the level of customer service Millie thinks is appropriate. Avoid this location. read more

Came in on May 19th on a Thursday around 7 p.m. because the store hours posted said you close at 8 p.m. My experience honestly was disappointing from the beginning. The cashier seemed very new and was not welcoming at all. There was no greeting, no customer service, just a stare and "what do you want?" type of attitude. I ordered two combo meal deals that included sandwiches, fries, and fountain drinks because there was supposed to be a promotion taking $2 off each combo. Even after that, the total still came out to about $52 for two subs, two drinks, and two sides, which honestly felt extremely overpriced for what we received. Right after ordering, we were told the food had to be to-go because they were "about to close," even though we arrived around 7 p.m. and closing time posted says 8 p.m. We ended up eating in the car instead. While we were outside, I noticed the employees already cleaning up early. The female employee ended up closing the shop around 7:35 -7:40pm while the older gentleman cooking in the back was still inside cleaning and finishing up. The cook seemed hardworking and respectful, but overall the customer service from the cashier completely ruined the experience. read more

I walked in and automatically greeted by a nice young man. Nice genuine smile. I decided what to get pretty fast. He asked all the right questions to make sure if I wanted anything else. I was just going to get the sandwich but then he asked do I added the fries. My order was done before I knew it. Was on my way home to hopefully enjoy. I got home and was hungry so dove into my dinner. Perfect temperature, tasty & it hit the spot!!!! The young man was very friendly, his service was right on!!! It's hard to find employees like him these days, hold on to him! read more

Philly's Best Cheesesteaks - Mushroom Cheesesteak & cheesesteak fries - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Orange, California

Nice counter service, 80's music, Philly sports memorabilia, food...I got an Italian Hoagie. Seeded bread. I found the sandwich overpriced and particularly because the bread was not very fresh, a little dense. My wife found oil and vinegar not good. The sandwich was disappointing. Pass, no second chance here. Sandwich looked pretty. But not satisfying- should have gotten banh mi. Soda fountain was flawless, perfect Diet Coke. Recommend that though pricey. read more

Stopped in for a cheesesteak for lunch. Back from a week long trip in Philadelphia, I had my share of several of these sammiches. Ordered the Philly's Best that's filled with mushrooms, sweet peppers, white American cheese on a amorosa roll. Hot off the grill the steak was juicy, seasoned and finely shredded. I enjoyed while watching USA take gold in the Olympics with an ice cold root beer. read more

Philly born and raised until I was 25 - having a true cheesesteak in CA is a luxury. Perfectly made with American cheese, fried onions and mayo. It's not healthy but it's authentic lol read more

Must try the Pepperoni Cheesesteak- SO DELISH!!!!! I Love their Amoroso Rolls and wish I could buy them, perfect bread for a Sammich

I wanted to like this place so badly... AMBIANCE - Old establishment located in the sample plaza as Ralph's. It smells odd in there. Can't quite put my finger on it. Anyway, there's an ample amount of parking. SERVICE - The two kids who work there seem diligent and they're polite. The food came out relatively quickly. FOOD - I purchased Philly's best for roughly $12.50. Overpriced for the quality and flavor. Something in the sandwich was excessively sweet - not sure if it was the onions or peppers. Also, the mushrooms are chopped so finely that you can't even taste it. I'm talking, julienne cut - more or less invisible. 1 star because of the staff was polite and service was quick. Would I be back? Should you give it a try? NO. Stay away. :( read more

I have loved this place for years and hopefully management/owners can resolve this so I can update this review. Yesterday I placed a pick up order on yelp via Grubhub. I usually order from the location on Tustin but mistakenly placed the order here. I noticed as soon as the confirmation page came up with the Chapman address. Realizing my mistake I immediately called the restaurant and told them of my mistake and asked for the order to be canceled. They said I have to contact grub hub. I was also told that wouldn't fulfill the order and look for the grub hub order to be canceled. I called grub hub and explained this and they reached out to the restaurant to verify. The restaurant lied and told them the food was made and picked up already!! I was denied my refund and I asked them to call again and remind them that I called before the food was made and they agreed to cancel the order. They lied again but also changed their story telling the grub hub representative that they had already put the chicken and hamburger on the grill by the time I had called. Lies! They still won't not issue a refund and I'm just screwed. I realize it was my mistake but I quickly fixed it and still am out $50. Yes $50 their sandwiches are very expensive. I even placed an order to the right location right after I was told to call grub hub and they would issue the refund. Shame on the employees who worked on August 17th, around 1:30 pm. I reviewed this restaurant once before at five stars. Sad I'd had to change it. read more

I love this place but always have the same issue that I just to bring up here. The food is great but there's two restrooms and they refused to allow anyone to use them. Like the employee told my husband someone is there while it was just him and I in there. My husband asked to used the other restroom. Then employee denied there was second one which was crazy and he refused for him to use it. We came back another day because I go next door for physical therapy and literally they weren't allowing anyone to use it. Why? You have two have a restroom for customers but the upsetting part is that he was laughing with another female employee. Then another time we were eating our sandwiches and this construction worker comes in knew the female worker and asked to use the restroom and she allowed him. So my husband decided to ask to use it since she allowed this individual that didn't purchase and her reply was no. Like this horrible and the smirk on her face is disgusting. You guys need to really see how your team is with customers. Lastly when you walked in you normally have to announce your there because it's an empty kitchen and no on at register. This is what we deal with. Your sandwiches are great and the only reason we continue is because that's our lunch before going to Spine and Sport. I hope this feedback opens your eyes to what customers get. read more

Philly's Best with grilled onions and the free spicy peppers are seriously one of the best things I've ever had. Pricey ($15) for a sandwich but everything is expensive nowadays. Will be returning. read more

I feel like I was baggy taken advantage of. I paid $20.34 for a sandwich, chips and a drink. Thank goodness I didn't get fries!!! I got the steak with mushrooms. The mushrooms are CANNED!!! Are you kidding me??? You charge like $12 for a sandwich and you use canned mushrooms!! They are rubbery and slimy. Not appetizing. The customer service is really good. That's where the two stars go to. The sandwich was nothing to celebrate. read more

Not bad but not exactly my favorite thing. It's the fast food of cheesesteak taken with it what you will. Employees were great!

The roll was really fresh and the cheesesteak tasted good. It was smaller than I thought, but still filling. The breading on the onion rings was delicious, but they were a bit soggy. I would definitely come back and try again. read more

I lived in around Philadelphia for a good chunk of my life... When I moved out to California roundabout 2004, I realized that everyone and their brother had a Philly cheesesteak on the menu, and pretty much all of them were blatantly incorrect. People just chop up some steak and stick it on a roll and melt some cheese on it, And then they call it a Philly cheesesteak... It's downright insulting to anyone who knows better. Fair enough- it's true most people in Southern California don't know any better... But for those of us who do... This place goes the extra mile for an authentic experience. They fly in the Amoroso rolls, for pity sake! They have all the best Philly based ingredients- Hanks Soda... Get this... they even stock TASTYCAKES! I could not believe that I could get tasty cakes in Orange County California! What an absolute treat! You can get your sandwich however you want it... If you want to go old-school with the wiz, or you want to use cheddar... If you want peppers and onions, or you just want onions... They make them all correctly! No this is still Southern California, so it's not identical to some thing you get on South Street... But it's the closest I found out here. Not only that but they managed to duplicate it and they have several different locations. But I also just realized that they do a great chicken Parm... That's another thing that many California restaurants ruin, But Phillys Best does it right! read more

Good food, good service, clean location. I like these sandwiches, especially the Chicken Philly and Turkey Hoagie.

The mushroom steak, Philly's best, french fries, and onion rings always hit the spot. Get the hot sauce and hot peppers on the side if you like a little more if a spicy kick. read more

My dad's an essential worker and he picked up some to-go for our family. Wish we took some pics, but we devoured everything much too quickly! My dad ordered 2 cheesesteaks and 1 cheesesteak fries. Cost around $30, but it was enough to feed a family of 4. The cheesesteaks were super cheesey and they do not skip out on the steak! No mushy grilled onions and it wasn't too salty either. Cheesesteak fries came with cheddar cheese and it was also a huge heaping helping. Great on taste and on portions! read more

More like Philly's Okay-est. Got the Philly's Best as a guy who loves a good Philly Cheesesteak. I like that they had whiz as a cheese option, most places don't do that. Also a big plus that they had hot peppers for me to load up on because I love me some spice. Something about the meat and the bread just didn't quite feel or taste like a good Philly Cheesesteak should. Not the worst, definitely not even close to the best, but it was ok. I'd like to think it's probably due to it being a chain store with a formula that caters to the "average American Cuisine" archetype. I mean, if they offer a pizza cheesesteak, I guess that should have been my warning sign, so maybe that's bad on me. read more

Can't go wrong with the best cheesesteak around. Also the service was great the cooks got my order out fast and hot. Thanks guys!

I went to this location for a cheesesteak sandwich. While I was there, I added fries to my cheesesteak sandwich order. i got sticker shock when the bill rang up over $16 for a sandwich & fries. NO DRINK! The guys working there were very nice. My order was ready faster. Faster than the fries could of been completely fried. When I sampled the fries on my drive back home. The fries were GROSS, soggy & droopy. I unwrapped my cheesesteak & there was no meat or cheese that could be seen. I had to literally, open the roll to see any meat & cheese. The taste of the cheesesteak meat seemed very different than I remembered. It tasted like it was freezer burned, than cooked & used to make sandwich. They have decreased the amount of meat & cheese they put on their cheesesteaks. Bummer! Philly's Best Cheessteaks used to be reasonably priced & a decent place to eat. read more

This was the good experience that almost didn't happen. Found this restaurant while going to another store, checked yelp with good reviews. Walked up to the entrance and was hit by a very bad odor. Not sure what it was , smelled like sewer. Walked in and the inside didn't seem to have that same odor so I rolled the dice as the establishment looked very clean. Got the beef and chicken Phillies. The bread was perfect, the meat and onions were cooked well. They tasted as I would expect and that's a good thing! Was very happy to have pushed past my first impression. Good food! read more
