My boy and I have been to Philly and ate as many cheesesteaks as we could, so I've had Gino's,…read morePat's & Cleaver's, but I missed out on trying Philip's. I love Philly cheesesteaks, and I'm also an Eagles fan, so when the Eagles were in both Super Bowls, we hosted Super Bowl parties with Philly Cheesesteaks.
Well, I heard this place was in town, and I wanted to give it a try. We decided to meet here before going to watch the Street Fighter movie, eat, grab a quick drink, and then hit the theatre. I must say, Jawny's was easily the highlight of the night!
Once I arrived, there was plenty of parking in the small shopping area. I walked in, and the place was clean, spacious, and extremely bright! I loved the art on the walls, and the service and people were nice and welcoming. I couldn't decide what to order, so the lady at the register broke it down: Do you like bell peppers and mushrooms? If not, go with the 215 (Philly). If you do, go with the LA Philly. I chose LA with white American cheese. I do like wiz cheese, and that's the Philly style, but I wanted to change it up that night.
Off the rip, Jawny's is legit and was better than all three spots I tried in Philly. The bread was on point, the meat was fresh, the cheese was melted to perfection. I also got, I think, the mango lemonade? Whatever lemonade it was, it was fire!
Lastly, the cheesesteak sandwiches are pretty big, and I only ate half. I tried one of my boy's fries, and they were good too.
I highly recommend!
