    Chicken Philly was really dry and super salty. The cajun fries were salty fries. The only thing that was decent was their chicken parmesan.

    Fry's
    Christian M.

    I really wanted to like this place but every time I order it's a different experience. Unfortunately it's been a bad one more often than not. Paid for a large fry 10$ and open this up...like how is that a large fry it wasn't even half full. And the Philly...I ordered what I always order but this time for whatever reason the so many sweet hot peppers in the sub it was not edible. Like I don't know wtf goes. Through someone's mind to put half a jar of peppers on a sub but it really is run by highscool kids on the weekday and they're just not good enough and care so little about customers. One time a I had to wait 45mind after ordering it was weird. Don't recommend this place.

    As a follow up to my below review. I called these guys and I spoke to I believe his name is Ethan. He's the manager onsite. He was amazing with his customer service skills he owned up to it. He really is an amazing guy. We will obviously continue ordering from here as we always do. We love to get our cheesesteaks from South Philly, and generally they're amazing. Not sure who was making this sandwich today on July 31st at 7:20p. My husband requested a cheese steak with lettuce, tomato garlic aoli jalapeños hot, red peppers, and As a follow up to my below review Swiss cheese, and there is no cheese in it. No lettuce, no tomatoes, etc. like y'all need to do better. If we're paying for something we ask for we should get what we asked for and whoever was working there tonight you need to do better

    The Cowboy Chicken Philly was spicy
    Joe S.

    On and On, South of Philly! (twang) It's been a while since I reviewed this place and I'll say it's now a 5 star experience, at least during lunch. The staff is always friendly, the food is always made fresh, and it's quite delicious, even from someone from the opposite side of Pennsylvania. Their now $8.49 lunch special includes a 6" sandwich (including their cheesesteaks), fries (or chips), and a drink. It's a great deal in comparison to other lunch special around Avalon Park. They have other specials as well (i.e. 2 for 1 beers) and may even have some dinner specials that I'll have to check in to. But they're slinging up some delicious subs, hoagies, grinders and torpedos for the local community.

    I was a vegetarian for many years but last year I started to eat red meats, pork and chicken. I eat meats here and there, my body calls for it. I don't really like red meat though, but every once in a while I remember my years as a carnivore and I like to revisit those flavors. One such unique dish that was lingering in my mind was a Philly Cheesesteak. I have even traveled to Philly to try the original ones, and they are amazing. South Florida has an amazing Cheesesteak culture, here in Orlando, well, we got South Philly Steaks. This place is as close as the real deal as it gets. We tried different variations and they were all good, but the favorite was the Miami Heat. No lie! If you order it, tell them to go light on the jalapeños because you'll get burned. We also got wings and they were decent. All in all a good spot to order from.

    Not Briantos but delicious nevertheless
    Mark P.

    Something like a three or four. They're definitely not Briantos, I sure do miss them (they used to be in this spot years ago), but they're pretty good and well better than I'd thought they'd be. Lunch took every bit of fifteen minutes but at least everything was hot and fresh. Plenty of well seasoned, hot dropped fries. Good meat to bread ratio on the Philly. Otherwise, only small misgivings. Had trouble ordering my usual Philly configuration but that's kiosk ordering for you. I guess I could have asked for help but didn't see anyone who wasn't easily available. At least they call you when your order's up. I don't even know why they ask for a tip, sort of felt like I ordered from a vending machine.

    Philly Cheesesteak with their smoked Spicy Gouda cheese and bacon bits with Mayo and ketchup
    Amado G.

    WOW, where do I begin this place is Amazing. I decided to visit my friend and he ordered from this spot that left me stunned with great valor on my pallet. It was so good before driving back home I decided to have it again and it was even better the next day. I ordered cheeseburger bacon rolls with one of their many dipping sauces as a quick appetizer bite. This was the best roll I've ever tasted. It literally tastes like I was eating a bacon cheeseburger without having the actual burger present. Then I indulged in one of their cheesesteaks and just like the night before it was fantastically put together. I had the cheesesteak with their spicy smoked Gouda cheese which gave it that spice and smoked flavor with bacon bits and spicy Mayo with ketchup. Spice upon spice which made my first experience at this place a memorable one. I will definitely return to this place once I visit my friend again.

    Steak and chicken egg rolls!
    Nakeita W.

    These roll were wonderful! Nice hot and crispy very tasty! My first time going to this spot! I live downtown so I don't get out here much but when I come back I'll definitely be visiting these boys again! The two dudes that work there were super nice!

    Philly Cheesesteak
    Dene R.

    Can I give this place 10 stars! Amazing food. I love the convenience of the parking when you pull up. Relaxing environment and it smells so good as soon as you walk in. You can order with a person or self order. I chose to self order because I didn't know what I wanted. Love how you can personalize your food which is amazing. The prices are very fair and great quantity of food. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak with lettuce, onions and hot peppers and then the loaded cheese fries. AMAZING! Nothing was disappointing. The staff was great and got me a cup for my drink. I will be back when I am in the area. If you haven't been check this place out!

    The Sexy Sandwich Combo
    Barbie C.

    I will honestly say that photos here on Yelp do not do justice to how good these sandwiches are so please don't go based on that. I almost did and would have missed out on a delicious Sunday meal with my family. We ordered their lunch special which was a 6in. steak sub with fries (substituted one order to have onion rings) and a drink and were very happy with our orders. Both sandwiches had "sexy sauce" on them, which was just melted white American cheese, but it was delicious. The onion rings were skinny, tasty and came with a zesty cream sauce and the fries were nicely seasoned and crisp. Overall the location doesn't look the most exciting and appealing, but is definitely worth the experience. Also, I love businesses that offer lunch specials even on the weekends not just M-F. So that's an added bonus!

    My first visit was great! Very affordable lunch special. Love the peppers variety in the philly. Cooked to order and wings were fried crispy like I like them.

Unfortunately, though, our experience was less than pleasant. The guy working was nice and friendly, which I appreciated. However, about a third of the menu was unavailable. He explained that they were in the process of changing the menu, but it was still disappointing since several of the unavailable items were actually the reason we decided to stop in. We ended up ordering a Philly cheesesteak, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and a plain burger. The food was perfectly okay -- nothing particularly wrong with it, but nothing that stood out either. Unfortunately, there were several other little issues that added up. The soda machine seemed to be off, and the Coke tasted very strange. The restaurant itself could have been cleaner, with crumbs and other debris in the booths. The food came in little baskets without silverware, which is understandable given the type of food, but every napkin dispenser we checked was empty, so there wasn't even a convenient way to wipe your hands. The bathrooms also had no soap or paper towels, which was especially disappointing. Overall, the food was edible and the employee was friendly, but the combination of the limited menu, cleanliness issues, empty napkin dispensers, and lack of bathroom supplies made this a pretty inconvenient and unpleasant experience. Hopefully some of these things were simply due to them being in the middle of a menu transition, but based on our visit, I wouldn't be in a hurry to return.

Before I even got my food, I had a great interaction with Mercedes at the counter. She was genuinely friendly, easy to talk to, and didn't rush the moment, which set a really positive tone right away. I ordered a cheesesteak with everything on it, and when it came out, it was clear they don't cut corners here. The sandwich was fully loaded from one end to the other, with finely chopped steak that was juicy and well seasoned. The cheese was melted throughout instead of just sitting on top, so every bite had that same balanced flavor. Even with all the toppings, nothing felt overwhelming, and the bread held everything together without falling apart. It also came with fries, which were hot and crispy, and I paired everything with a peach Crush. That combination worked really well, especially with how rich the cheesesteak was. Between the quality of the food and the customer service, this is an easy recommendation. If you are craving a cheesesteak and want something that actually feels worth it, this spot is a solid choice. The ambience was just simple. It gave a mom and pop shop vibe, I love it.

With a bit of patience, though, you should be able to find a spot. I tried the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, and it was so good! I love that they offer it all day. The bread was freshly made, and they use real eggs. It was perfectly seasoned that I didn't even need to add salt or pepper. I also tried their Italian wedding and rainbow cookies, both delicious. Prices are reasonable for the quality you receive. They have a deli, where you can pick up fresh meats, they have a coffee bar, with a selection of desserts, and a little shopping area where you can pick up authentic Italian pantry staples like pasta and sauces. Seating includes a few bar seats along the back wall and covered outdoor tables. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu, especially the chicken parm sandwich. Between the quality of the food, welcoming staff, and charming atmosphere, I highly recommend Stasio's.
