I saw Violet Stone on social media commercial and it looked good on the commercial. Went there…read moreexcited to get a cheesesteak like I saw on the commercial. I ordered the cheesesteak with onions. I also ordered some cheese sticks. My wife ordered a pizza. The following is one guy's opinion: 1. My cheesesteak with onions was terrible. They used a weird type of bread with sesame seeds on it. It was kind of hard too. Also, it was way too much bread for a cheesesteak in my opinion. It was a really bad choice to wrap cheesesteak with. The chopped onions on the cheesesteak looked gray. The whole thing just looked unappetizing. As I feared, the bread doesn't compliment the cheesesteak. I only ate about a quarter of it and took the rest to go. To their credit, the restaurant does have a sign that says if the food is a flop, to return it. I didn't. I don't like telling restaurants that their food sucks. I just don't come back. I took it home hoping to find a homeless person to give it to, but didn't see anyone so I threw it away. 2. My wife is a cheese stick fanatic. She's always looking for the perfect cheese stick. However, the cheese sticks here also were disappointing. The breading on it was too thick and didn't taste good. I think it was a bit overdone on the outside, but not done on the inside. The cheese inside was not melted or close to being soft or slightly melted. It was the consistency of a piece of cheese that was left out at room temperature, soft, but not melty as a cheese stick should be. It was merely a warm piece of cheese wedge covered in a breading that also didn't have much flavor. I think it's because they were overly done. They were on the darker bitter side that you get from frying something too hot and fast yet the cheese was not soft. Were they frozen and that's why they cooked that way? I don't know, seems that way. 3. My wife liked her pizza. I had a slice because the cheesesteak was a fail for me. The pizza was ok. Nothing special. They do their pizza "well done". For some it may be too well done. My wife likes her pizza well done so she liked it. The place was also expensive for what it is and I felt kinda cheated for spending almost $70.00 (not including tip) for two drinks, a crappy sub, a small pizza, and some cheese sticks. I went, I saw, I conquered, but won't be back. Sorry violet stone. Go check out your competition and change some things.

OK, not my best food photo. But we had delicious authentic Philly cheesesteaks for lunch today and…read morethey were amazing as always. There is a reason they only take cash & It's because they're so good they can. Mine was loaded by my choice with light mayo, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed sweet peppers, hot peppers, and sautéed green peppers with sharp provolone and some shredded lettuce on a perfectly soft and toasted chewy bun. They a lot more options for instance, Eriq Breland got his with cheese whiz. So grateful to have such a hidden gem in our midst.

It's not exactly around the corner for me so it took a while to get there, but I would say it was worth the drive. My dining buddy and I started with two cheesesteaks. One with whiz and the other with Cooper Sharp. Both of them were terrific and made exactly to order. We also ordered a medium french fry and onion rings. The onion rings were good, but came out a little more well done that I am used to. The fries were fantastic --- extremely good and very fresh. They actually tasted like potato, which is not a given with french fries from most places today. We also had two fountain drinks, and that was fine. Service is good, food came out fast. This place is not cheap, but the quality is definitely there. As for a realistic cheesesteak compared to a Philly cheesesteak, I'd say it's close but not precise, the roll was fresh but not today fresh and the seasoning was good but not Philly good. Definitely hits the spot! So far, these are the best cheesesteaks. I've had in the Tampa Bay area since moving here years ago, and I expect Delco's will be hard to beat down here. Highly recommended

My boyfriend has been wanting to try Mikeeo's because he found the food truck's IG so when we saw a location opened in Ybor, we jumped on it. This place is sooooo good. The food was hot and fresh. My boyfriend got the Chasegfx and I also got the Chasegfx but added hot peppers and mushrooms. The cheesesteaks were well seasoned, cheesy, and super fresh. We also got fries, which were well seasoned and delicious. The staff was really friendly. Everyone was pleasant and seemed to really go out of their way. If I had one complaint, it would be that it is a tad pricey, but it's so delicious that I'm clearly going to be back so it's not keeping me from going there.

My wife and I needed a quick dinner and Leftys Cheesesteaks happened to be located in the plaza…read morewhere our last errand was. Off to the side of Publix, past the liquor store, stands this quick service cheesesteak place. I haven't had a good cheesesteak in a while. I went to school in Philly and have grown to love this meat and cheese sandwich from the city of Brotherly love. Leftys has majority of their locations in Detroit. One in Cleveland. Then two in Florida. One is in Tampa and the other in Brandon. The set-up is simple. You order at the counter. They have a few tables but this is mostly a take-out place. There was a tv with sports on and one other couple eating. We placed our order right away. I got Sam's Cheesesteak. I ordered it large which cost $15. The sandwich was loaded with meat, cheese sauce, grilled onions, green peppers, mushrooms and white American cheese under it all. This cheesesteak was hefty. The meat, cheese and veggies all melded together and made a pretty decent sandwich. A little crunch from the peppers, the meat was savory and the cheese covered everything. This was good but I felt it was pricey considering it didn't come with a side. My wife ordered the Buffalo Chicken hoagie. This was covered with chopped breaded chicken, buffalo sauce, pepperjack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and ranch. It had a kick and my wife said it was pretty good. This at the regular size was priced at $12. Filling, fresh, meaty, greasy, tasty. If you're looking for a cheesesteak, check out Leftys.

The burger was juicy, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a smashburger, and the wings were really good too. I also like the thoughtful touch of them giving you disposable gloves so your hands don't get messy while eating -- small thing, but much appreciated. The food here is consistently good, which is why we keep coming back. The only thing I've found a little inconsistent is the mint lemonade. Sometimes it's great, other times I wish I'd skipped it. That said, the food itself is always on point. Service is really good too, so I'm only taking one star off for the lemonade.
