    Holy cow Perfection!!!! Best cheesesteak NJ hands down from the meat to cheese ratio, all different options and the bread is to die for! Family run with love. You will not be disappointed. trust!

    Beef and Chicken Cheese Steaks! Superb!
    Geoffrey C.

    Definitely delightfully delicious! We enjoyed the beef and chicken cheese steaks! The 4.5 Yelp Rating and 4.9 Google Rating are absolutely deserved. Chief's is worth the trip! You'll be rewarded with a remarkable and rich cheese steak that's likely one of the very best in all of Central New Jersey!

    A trip to Philly without those potholes or distance or anything for that matter. I drive almost anywhere for a cheesesteak and in this case the drive was well worth it. They have Whiz! What is a cheesesteak without it? Well not a good one. This is gourmet all the way. From the cuts of what appears to be a tangle of ribeye once chopped and sizzled on the flat top grill. This place shines with authenticity. The bread is perfect. The whiz is perfect and coming out to my car to offer me napkins? Priceless. It's worth the drive.

    Food was delicious. Go in person don't dash it. Price wise you get double if you get it yourself

    We enjoyed our food at Chief's. We ordered a cheesesteak, chicken parm wrap, and seasoned fries. It's a clean, well run, family owned restaurant. We visited Chief's when we were nearby at Rutgers University. I always search for good cheesesteaks, wings, or pizza when traveling to a new area. I searched many lists for "best cheesesteak in NJ" and unfortunately all were near Philadelphia. Chief's was the only one close to our destination so we gave it a shot and we were very happy. The food was great, friendly employees, bathrooms spotless, and timely service. We'll definitely return when we're in the area.

    I should preface this by saying I have nothing to compare it to as I've never had an authentic Philly cheesesteak. But this one was good! There's a variety of options or you can build your own. I opted for the signature with a side of chipotle mayo. The sauce really did it, and it complimented the sides which we got a lot of. In fact, we may have tried all but one: fries, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and cheese fries. The family was kind enough to give us their churro and funnel cake fries. We all enjoyed our meals and needless to say, we left stuffed. This small, family owned and operated shop has some seating, enough for our group of 8, and then some. There's TVs with games and plenty of parking as this is part of a small strip of businesses.

    Wow! Thoroughly impressed! This was my first time ordering from here. I recently have been craving cheesesteaks because it had been a while since I had one but just can't see myself driving from NJ to Max's in Philly...Last Sunday I went to Better Than Philly in Watchung...it wasn't bad. Owner was nice but it just didn't hit the spot for some reason. Tonight I decided to grab a cheesesteak to watch the Women's Final Four at home. Middlesex isn't far from me and it wasn't hard to get to. Steak shop is located in a two level strip mall. Chiefs is on the ground level...The establishment is extremely clean which is important anywhere I go to eat. The steak shop is owned by a husband and wife and their story is on the back of the hand held menus. True family business which I appreciate. The wife Nella took my order, she was very pleasant. I got a cheesesteak with onions, peppers, provolone, whiz, and ketchup. Got a side of cheese fries as well. I know. It's a lot of cheese haha...When my order was ready and I paid, the Owner Mark (Chief) who was at the griddle thanked me for my business...Again, class act family business...went to Jillys liquor store on the way home and got some Guinness draft to pair with the cheesesteak. The cheesesteak had some weight to it and was PACKED with steak from end to end. No skimping. The bread was soft and pillowy...what I appreciated was even the ends of the bread were soft. You know sometimes you get a roll and it's soft until you get to the end and you get that harder bite...not here...this bread was fresh all the way...Steak was nicely seasoned and wasn't greasy. If I wasn't so hungry the sandwich could have easy fed two people that were moderately hungry. Def good value as far as what you get for the price, which was about $12 and change for the sandwich. With the fries it was right around $20 with the tax in that. They also have a loyalty program where you get a free cheesesteak after you purchase 10. The cheesesteak was the best I have had in NJ, hands down. It's a steak shop. This is what they specialize in. The have chicken and beef. Yes they do have burgers and other things you can put on a griddle but...this isn't like you going to a pizzeria and ordering a cheesesteak or even going to Jersey Mikes or some deli that just happens to have cheesesteaks on the menu. They have cheesesteaks down to a science and I used to spend a lot of time in Philly...this place is better than some of the popular ones out there. If you want a cheesesteak do not go to Wawa or Quick Check or a pizza joint. Go over to Chiefs. Inviting atmosphere. Friendly ownership. Great cheesesteaks. I will be back!

    Stopped by this new place in my neighborhood! I haven't had a cheesesteak in a minute so i was craving one. Ambiance - spacious - good lighting - plenty of seating - clean open kitchen so you can watch the chef cook up your order :) - check out the menu on either side of the open kitchen! They have cheesesteaks and much more ( sliders, wraps, fish and chips, etc.) Service - friendly staff - brought our food right to our table - we asked for a a side of Whiz after we sat down and they graciously let us try some The foods - tater tots: came out hot, super crispy and perfectly salted. Went really well with our side of Whiz - Chiefs Signature Steak- huge portion of cheesesteak on a Kaiser roll. I enjoyed the sandwich with the provolone cheese but felt like it needed some sauce. I really enjoyed it after adding some Wiz to the sandwich. I also wish that the bun was toasted. Overall a solid place for cheesesteak! They also have plenty of other options like wings, loaded tater tots, wraps, and sliders. I'll def be back to build my own cheesesteak with wiz and some loaded tots !

    Cheesesteak with provolone peppers mushrooms and onions.
    Jim T.

    I was driving through the area and this place popped up nearby so I decided to check it out. The woman working the register was very friendly and personable, not sure if she's an owner but either way could tell she's vested in the success of the business. I got a cheesesteak with provolone, peppers, mushrooms and onions. It was solid, but I think I should have picked a saltier cheese like wiz to add some saltiness. My recommendations would be to season the meat a bit and perhaps get a thinner roll. The bread did kind of overpower the ingredients and the steak itself was rather plain. $14.50ish was a tad steep as well. Glad I stopped in and checked it out and wish them well.

    So I was told about 'Pardon My Cheesesteak' earlier today, so when it was lunch time I went. It is…read moreINSIDE of 'Welsh Farm,' & there's no distinguishing signage letting you know that, even once inside. There are order kiosks there, but that is only for the Welsh Farm menu. To order for Pardon My Cheesesteak you MUST do it through the app. If you know what you want, he will take your order at the counter & then you pay at the Welsh Farm register. The menu for PMC is on the wall behind the counter, but that's for the employees to see. A very confusing start. Anyway, I ordered the Chipotle Cheesesteak. I happened to be there when the worker was finishing my sandwich & he said to me "I have bad news for you. There's no more chipotle sauce," as he struggled to get just a few globs onto my cheesesteak. He told me if I come back another day, he'll be sure to put extra sauce on my cheesesteak, & I told him "you never have a 2nd chance to make a 1st impression," but we were both able to laugh about the situation. My rating is based upon the taste & presentation of the cheesesteak itself, as the amount of chipotle was just enough to tease my palate with how much better it could have been with that sauce on it. So, at some point I guess I'll go back & give it another go & adjust the rating from there. I definitely feel it can go up. Large sandwich, FULL of gooey & delicious cheese, cooked onions.

    Review for Meatheadz - Lawrence Township, NJ…read more After hearing a NJ Transit conductor rave about Meatheadz, I finally decided to check it out--and I'm glad I did. This place absolutely lives up to the hype. I went with the Plain cheesesteak with fried onions and pepper jack cheese on a seeded bun, along with an order of Meatheadz loaded fries. Let me just say, that cheesesteak was a monster. Fresh, perfectly cooked, and swimming in melty cheese--it's easily the best cheesesteak I've had outside of Philly. The portion was so generous I could barely finish it, and for anyone arriving hungry, you definitely won't leave that way. The loaded fries looked fantastic too, but I had to box them up for later (that's how filling the sandwich was). The prices were moderate and fair for what you get, and while the place was busy, the energy felt lively rather than chaotic. All in all, Meatheadz is absolutely worth the trip if you're craving an authentic cheesesteak experience. Rating: 4.25 out of 5
