Inky's Philly Cheesesteak in Easley, SC, delivers a fantastic take on a regional favorite…read more Located at the base of The Silos--where several food trucks ply their specialties--Inky's stands out as a spacious, comfortable spot with large booths that invite you to settle in... and maybe stay a while. High ceiling, lots of wood paneling, very vintage while still feeling up to date. The menu includes burgers, deli-style hoagies, and salads, but let's be honest: the cheesesteak is why you showed up--and it's good enough to keep you coming back. There's some real history behind the name. Albert "Inky" Harris ran the first cheesesteak and hoagie shop in Philadelphia back in the 1940s, and the current grandchildren owners carry that legacy forward. Whether every detail has been perfectly preserved or lovingly remembered, one thing is certain: they source their white American cheese from Philly, and the result feels authentic. And that makes all the difference. The fresh-baked Liscio's rolls are huge--soft and warm on the inside, with a firm, crusty on the outside. Like me... on a good day. Inside, finely chopped steak, peppers, onions, and that perfectly melted white American cheese are blended together, so every bite delivers a balanced, satisfying hit of flavor. No "all onions in one bite, no meat in the next" surprises--just consistent harmony. And the star of the show? Certified Angus ribeye. No shortcuts. No skimping. No regrets. Sandwiches come in 7", 12", or the "I wish I was still in college" 18" option--because sometimes restraint is overrated. My wife and I split the Colossal. The meals are served on trendy paper-toppped metsl trays. The staff and management go out of their way to make you feel welcome and walk you through all the options. Sides round out the experience with plenty of choices: fries, tater tots, onion rings, pasta salad, fried mushrooms (hello, childhood), and a standout option--house-made chips, sliced and fried fresh and disappearing faster than your willpower. Bottom line: If you're craving a true Philly-style cheesesteak without leaving the Upstate, Inky's is absolutely worth the stop. Just don't plan on eating light... or sharing.

The Authentic Philly Cheese Steak. Is that one word or two? According to the menu it is…read more"Cheesesteaks", which auto correct doesn't like, but there it is. Rainy-ish Thursday December night at about midnight, or really 6:00PM but as dark and rainy as it was, it felt like midnight, the crowd had not hit yet but was trickling in. I found the opportunity to hit up Inky's going to a Clemson graduation party from Greenville. Good timing. No wait seating. Allowed to get a beer from next door, craft beers from Silos Brewing. Ordered the authentic standard 12 inch Philly with the Cooper cheese option, no additions because we are playing the authenticity game. Which is in itself a bit of an argument since a few "authentic" cheesesteaks in Philly swear by Cheese Whiz as authentic. Cheese Whiz is not an option, but provolone or American and Cooper are options. This is otherwise certified Angus beef ribeye, sliced super thin and incorporated on the grill with onions and the cheese into one homogeneous filling of authenticity. Also, the roll is the authentic Italian style from Liscio's Bakery - softer and chewier. I am not sure if it is a Liscio style or if they actually import these, but they are the real deal for texture and flavor. So, all that is fantastic. My only beef with the authenticity is just that....the beef. Not specifically the beef quality, but the beef quantity. The Philly Cheesesteaks I have had (in Philly) usually have a higher beef to bread ratio than my experience here. Could just be the chef for this one, but it seemed that my experience has been beef almost overflowing the hoagie bread. With that said, this is a fantastic and mouth watering sandwich. Not dry. Steaming hot. Came out very quickly. Made to order. Priced at $14.25 with tax comes to $15.53. I would say that coupled with the Silos experience, this is a destination worthy sandwich. If the restaurant keeps it this way, still worth it, but I wish there were an option to pay $2 more, for example, for 1.5X meat and it would be perfect. Oh, and maybe add the Cheese Whiz option for that side of town.

The ordering counter is right in front as you walk in with all seating on the left. Once you place your order they assign you to a table and will bring out your food when ready. We did not realize we entered 15 minutes before they closed. We were originally going to eat there but when we said we would change our order to to-go, they said it was not necessary and we could eat there. They did take down the outside signs soon after we sat down, but we were not the last person entering to place an order. There were also a few others eating inside, so they were more than accommodating to their customers. The Cuban sandwich and NY-style hot dog came out in about five minutes. The Cuban was a bit on the small side but did have a nice amount of ham. The large amount of pickles drowned out the majority of other flavors but the overall the sandwich was good. The NY-style hot dog was a major disappointment. The hot dog itself seemed to have been sitting in the warmer for quite a while as it looked dehydrated and wrinkly. It was chewy with an almost crispy casing. The hot dog did fit the bun but was overwhelmed by the sauerkraut and mustard. Unfortunately, the quality of the food did not live up to the friendliness and accommodation of the staff.

No matter what review site you consult, it seems like High Test Deli consistently receives high marks. After seeing the line out the door on a few occasions I decided to check it out for myself. My husband and I got two sandwiches - one for now, and one for later and I am really glad we did! We enjoyed a hot Italian sandwich at the deli and then we took a cold club sandwich with us to enjoy later while we were touring around the National Park. While we were dining inside of the deli we noticed many diners calling in their to-go orders and coming in for "frozen sandwiches" - aka ice cream sandwiches. Both of those ideas seemed like good ones! High Test is actually known for their frozen sandwiches so I am sorry I didn't leave room to give one a try - next time. I loved seeing how happy everyone was at this deli whether they were working, eating or getting a to go order. Eating at High Test Deli was definitely one of my best experiences in Bryson City. Next time I am in Bryson City I will definitely be back to High Test to try more menu items and especially some ice cream sandwiches.
