Driving to Philly... need to try a Cheese steak

Nickel///MboyZ · 09-29-2011, 04:27 PM

Genos has the best cheese stake with the Whipped Cheese or something like that to do with cheese

and pats has the Sweet peppers. I prefer Pats becuase of the flavor of the sweet peppers

I really suggest that you have both casue they are totally different

BBS · 09-29-2011, 04:58 PM

Depends how late youll be in the city. Pats and genos are open all night so they may be your only options. Steves and Chinks are what I prefer, but they close at 2 i think

Ali.K_BMW · 09-29-2011, 05:22 PM

I am going to get one tonight.

Cheeze whiz son!

+1 on the peppers. Mad good!

I forget which place has the better hot sauce. But it's really hot!

I liked Ishkabibbles

If you're a wide-eyed tourist, you'll go to Geno's. If you want the true Philly experience, go to Pat's. If you want a better cheesesteak, go to Dalessandro's in Roxborough. That'll bring you pretty near the Helix headquarters--stop by and see if we're there.

Damn... This is gonna be impossible...

MTP335 · 09-30-2011, 04:13 PM

So far Pats is winning

Edited add Poll

rd4LLe92m3 · 09-30-2011, 06:08 PM

not trying to be a hater but pats and geno's are the not that great. They are like the generic tourist spot. The best places imo are chinks in the tacony section and johns hot roast pork on syder right off columbus in south philly. But neither of those spots are open late. I prefer to go to jims on south st if i need a late night snack. And if you go to Tony Lukes get the chicken cutlet with broccoli rabbe.

MTP335 · 10-04-2011, 11:41 AM

PSU335i · 10-04-2011, 03:28 PM

Ryebread · 10-08-2011, 01:23 AM

1. Jims on south ST
2. Tony lukes

Pats and genos are a waste of time

SmellsLikemonkey · 10-08-2011, 02:49 AM

I heard pAts and genos both suck. Cheese whiz? Gross.

khalid215 · 10-08-2011, 02:53 AM

forget what everyone else is saying go with Steves Prince of Steaks, the best cheesteak youll ever eat and theyre open til like 3 am on weekends there one on cottmann and st vincent st in the northeast and another one on comply and the boulevard but the one on cottmann is a little bit better, ask any philly native and theyll tell you to go to steves. Trust me youll fall in love

SmellsLikemonkey · 10-08-2011, 02:53 AM

Whats tony lukes like in ac? I usually pay 5-10 nl when im there but the food sucks at the b and ac in general. The metropolitan is ok and the noodle bAr is ok but just a few items.

jlev67 · 10-08-2011, 12:54 PM

Jim's on South hands down!! You get the great cheesesteak and the tables upstairs are great for people watching and just taking in south street in general is fun.
