Ok this fucking.thing is fire !!!!!!!!
Rather a non seeded roll, but the steak seasoned well, plenty of meat.

I actually may prefer this over delasandros.
I don't have any complaints and I will be back.

Yeah, i gotta check that place out soon.

The cheesesteak looks good, but I will make sure they melt my cheese on the steak.

Yeah, anytime you go to a place like that it's best to catch transportation since parking is a bitch and the traffic don't be good either.

Price seems reasonable, so that's great to know. As long as I get my money's worth that's all that matters.

It legit might rival Delasandros, way better than Jim's Ishaka, Tony Luke, Johns.
Usually some of the lesser known food spots have the best food.

People won't know that because they want to always go to places other people go to.

I don't eat cheesesteaks, hoagies and pizza everyday either, moderation is key.

I love food, just don't want to overdo it, sometimes I want try a new spot to see how their food is showing some support.

But to be honest, I don't mind cooking when I need to do it, so that I don't have to buy takeout food everyday.

I grew up eating this almost everyday back then. They have the best seafood in West Philly and it's a goldmine. So, when I visit my fam in West Philly, I make sure to stop by hyons to get some of their food.

Does seem a bit skimpy but for $5. :dunno:

Then again this is cheaper that most fast food combos.
There was a corner store around my way back then where you could get a cheese steak platter with fries, chips, cake and soda for a good price back then. Them poppy stores used to make good cheesesteaks back then..
