    Usually the food is okay but today the Philly cheese steak is extremely undercooked. The meat was almost raw but I assume it's pre-cooked, who knows. The fries and the boneless wings were good but not so much the Philly cheesesteak. I do not recommend this location.

    Philly cheesesteak and fries
    Mimi L.

    No doubt food was expensive here but who've thought they actually cared about doing French fries right, for less than $4, the fries tasted fresh out of frier, hot, cripsy, wholesome and hearty. If they can do small things with a meticulous approach, you can safely say other items would taste equally good, and yes they did philly cheesesteak sandwich justice. Service was fast and friendly. My son's favorite food spot in great mall and it must be a reason why.

    Steak Philly Cheesesteak - Small (6")
    James M.

    Expectations aren't sky-high when it comes to meals from a mall food court but unfortunately Charley's failed to clear even the low mental bar that I had set for it. The cheesesteak itself was average but small, and the cheese fries were terrible and should be avoided at all costs. The quality of the cheesesteak itself was serviceable, probably exactly what you would expect in this setting. At first I was pleasantly surprised at the price point as it was around $8 for a six-inch sub which is right around what you would expect from a place like Subway these days. Once it arrived though it became abundantly clear how they keep the price down as this thing was about as wide as a #2 pencil. It was the skinniest hoagie roll I've ever seen, so the total volume of this cheesesteak was probably half what you might get at another chain. The real nail in the coffin for me came with the cheese fries which were legitimately awful. A simple comparison between the picture on the menu and the picture of what I actually received tells part of the story, but it doesn't capture how low-quality the cheese sauce they use is. Imagine the cheap plastic container of cheese-like substance that would be handed to you to drizzle over your stale nacho chips at a little league concession stand and even that would probably be preferable to what they slop on top of these mediocre french fries. Do yourself a favor and never order these.

    Cheese steaks, here I come! You can share with your buddy on one of their signature 12inch cheese steaks. They even have a selection of fries, which I loved! (Bacon and cheese) yummy! The staff are well trained and friendly. Its a casual setting, situated in the dining court of Great Mall. Better park in site 5, lots of empty space parking with shade.

    Charley's Cheesesteaks is hands down my favorite place to eat whenever I visit the Great Mall. Their sandwiches are always fresh, perfectly made, and consistently delicious. The staff never gets our orders wrong, which is a huge plus, and the quality never disappoints. If you're looking for a reliable and tasty meal, this is definitely the spot! Tip: if there's a long line at the cashier they have a self order tablet to the right of the restaurant.

    Not the best cheesesteak but it definitely does the job factoring you being at a mall food court. I decided to come here since it had been a while since my last Philly cheesesteak sandwich and being that this particular business stood out beyond all the neighboring noodles being offered. I placed the order for the Philly cheesesteak combo which came out pretty quickly. At first glance, the sandwich looked like an absolutely unappetizing mess but the ingredients were plentiful and the cheese was all melty. Sandwich was merely okay. Nothing great but not inedible. Soggy-ish bread didn't really help but the meat wasn't dry. Best item from the purchase was definitely the fries- fluffy on the inside with a nice golden tan. 3 stars overall. Service was prompt and unexpectedly pleasant.

    7 dollar special
    Gene D.

    Late review but I got the 7$ special, I found it the most economically costing deal across the food court. The food itself is good, good amount of vegetables too.

    Kenny seems like a hardworking and lovable guy in the community. The portions were double of what I…read morecould normally eat so the meal definitely had some leftovers. The cheesesteak had lots of cheese and steak and the roll was very buttery. The fries were cooked perfect and came out hot. From what I can tell, it's just Kenny working here so the service can be a bit slow but he is very apologetic about taking a while for orders. But with that being said, I suggest you plan ahead or make sure you're not in a rush. I love that the place is decorated with all of his customers. I love looking at the photos while you wait for your food.

    I've been waiting about a year now to try this place, mainly because of the infamous owner, Kenny…read more The place is located in a very industrial part of San Jose which is very random.. just like this shop and what it presents. It's almost like walking into a thrift shop that has random things going on from hundreds of photos of Kenny with customers, US flags, a table full of military business cards, Mercedes Benz trinkets, etc etc. Please be informed that Kenny is THE only person in here which means, he's the greeter, the cook, the cashier, and entertainer lol. The food can take long for a reason and there's no music or TV anywhere so it's quiet. The furniture is random as well; some from an office space, elementary school, and an all wooden table with chairs from someone's grandma's house. Me and my co workers ordered 2 burritos: Regular steak and eggs and a steak bulgogi. We waited maybe 15 mins for our which wasn't too long. The burritos had this soft white cheese melted on top which gave the tortilla this vanilla sweetness. I didn't really like that. The steak meat was sweet but didn't have that bulgogi marinade taste. Both of our burritos tasted like a plain egg, potato, and blank steak breakfast burrito. It was nothing special but the size is huge and one can be shared by two people. The burritos came with this sweet chipotle sauce with some sweet peppers in which it did add some flavor. Kenny is the man though! He's super nice and proud. He's very entertaining and enjoys talking to his guests. His son is in the army so it's one of the reasons why he's very patriotic. Is it a bit much?! Sure, but this cafe wouldn't be what it is without all of this randomness. It's a neighborhood gem and a historic landmark in this side of town. Kenny is well known to the area and is beloved. We enjoyed his company. Thank you so much Kenny!!

No lines and no crowds on a rainy day morning with plenty of available parking spots in the huge lot. Nothing attractive on the outside in this old popular plaza. The place turned out great with the old fashioned retro red color style interior and the experience was wonderful. Good vibes and positive feelings when walking into it. My lady server provided excellent service and the Hispanic male worker was quick and efficient. Place is clean and menu had good variety of selections. Breakfast is served all day while lunch items start at 11am. My breakfast was very fulfilling and total was $25.30 with everything included. I paid in cash and tipped them $5. Loved my sweet lady server. There was another older woman at the cash register. She's a local as well. I really enjoyed the stop. I had the Fajitas Omelette breakfast and the steak meats in it were very generous. Delicious breakfast exactly as I had expected. My onions green peppers potatoes were perfect with a side of salsa. Sourdough toast was delicious with the garlic butter taste. I really came for my favorite hot chocolate with whipped cream in the morning. I do miss big American breakfasts, especially in these old fashioned and traditional retro spots. Love it. Why didn't I visit this place much earlier? Because they're always busy or full inside and the plaza parking is usually congested with heavy traffic here. Overall, I love the vibes and the service. It's one of those places where you can just have normal casual conversations with the staffs working inside if you are open to it. Beautiful diner. Yes, I will be revisiting in the future. If you love huge food portions, there's great value here. One plate can easily be shared between two people. Nice.

    If you read my reviews here on Yelp, you know I either post for either a really good review or a…read morereally bad review. Unfortunately we are here for the latter. We moved to Milpitas about a year ago and my son started going to Mil's and is a current 'Regular'. They have good food. So after a while, my husband and I started going there and we too started going there pretty regularly for breakfast, at least once or twice a week. All in all, between the family we drop a few hundred a week. And we do tip well. Most of the wait staff knows us. Today, my husband had to stop on his way home to use the restroom. He doesn't look homeless or unkempt in anyway. When he asked, they told him he couldn't unless he's a 'paying customer'. This was to a newer employee he hadnt seen before. He proceeded to explain that we eat here regularly and she still said no. He asked to speak to the manager, who does know him. He too said no. I find it ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS that for a supposed family atmosphere restaurant, they couldn't extend a small courtesy. What exactly was it going to take away from them? As mentioned, we drop a good chunk of change there, and they didnt want to help out a patron that frequents the restaurant? Well, have no fear, we will NEVER darken your doorstep EVER again.

I live in San Jose now, so I don't make it over as often, but I've always considered it one of my favorite places for a great burger. In fact, I was just telling a coworker this week how good their burgers were, which is what convinced me to stop in for lunch today. Unfortunately, this visit was a huge disappointment. I ordered a burger, my wife had the chicken tenders, and we shared an order of cheese fries. The burger arrived completely undercooked. The pictures don't even do it justice--it wasn't just rare, it was raw. After a few bites I realized the meat wasn't even warm in the center. Since they use pre-formed patties, I'd think cooking them consistently would be one of the easier things to get right. By the time I realized how raw it was, I'd already eaten a few bites, and the meal was ruined. We ended up spending about $50 on a lunch that was essentially inedible. It was also 1:00 p.m. on a Saturday, and the restaurant was surprisingly empty. Maybe that's a sign that things have changed, but it's sad to see. As a longtime customer, this wasn't the experience I expected from a place I used to recommend without hesitation.

The Japanese influence Curry was good with the rice and a perfect pairing to the crispy tonkatsu cutlet. I wished I had ordered more servings of this over the Garlic shrimp. The Garlic Shrimp was good but a tad too dry. We needed a garlic sauce to compliment the garlic rice. There was a bit too much raw chopped garlic mixed vs sautéed chopped garlic.
