Right here in Philadelphia airport. Not sure about the low stars. I was told it's good. And I was right. It was amazing. I had a cheesesteak with wiz and onions. Called a WHIZ WIT and YUM YUM. It was full of wiz cheese and the steak is what makes it. I had a Philly Pale Ale to wash I'd down the way it should be. The service was on point but I did see more of a line as I left. The ambiance? Well it's an airport. But yes this is good eating and I love my food. read more

We had a connection in Philly; since this was our first time in Philly we knew we had to find a cheesesteak! Did some research beforehand and found the famous Geno's is there. So we make our way over.... Dear heavens, there is no way this place is representative of Geno's right? The best way to describe the taste of the cheesesteak I split with my daughter - nothing. Absolutely no flavor, how is that possible to have onions, steak, cheese, mushrooms and it tastes like nothing? Geno needs to restock his seasoning shelf! The only reason I didn't give this 1 star was this was at an airport but geez Geno - your name is on it! We ended up cutting up the peppers which gave us at least some flavor. The airplane meal was 10X better... read more

I can't even start to say how bad this sandwich was. The bread was chewy and not in a good way. The meat, dry, chewy and flavorless. The mushrooms, from a can. Onions, barely there. They didn't even cut it, they expect you to lift this messy sandwich. Good thing I grabbed knife. Honestly, a disgrace to the name, but I guess we can't except much at the airport. If I was a tourist and grabbed a sandwich here and it was like mine, then I was touring Philly and saw Geno's out and about, I would skip it so quickly. This place drives the name down due to quality. read more

Dang! This is some good bang for your buck in an airport! My husband ordered the steak and egg sandwich with mushrooms and I got the egg and cheese sandwich. It was delicious and full sized. It's not often you get good food and a good price in the airport. read more

Very good for a airport restaurant. We had two sandwiches and one order of fries. Plenty to feed a family of 4. read more

Passing through Philadelphia international airport and figured why not. So over to Geno's to order cheesesteak whiz wit and a side a fries. I'm at an airport location so I certainly not expecting the iconic taste but for a quick bite between flights it was nice. Service was fast. And plenty of seats to people watch. Overall not bad at all. read more

Over Steak and cheese was good and close to what you would get at the location outside the airport. Customer service is okay and well it's an airport so the environment is what it is. I hadn't had Geno's in a while and definitely happy to have take advantage of one at the airport. Nonetheless, a reminder I need to go back to Philly and hit up Geno's. read more

I read the reviews only after my visit since I came upon this venue on my walk between the airport terminals to the gate of my next flight. This spot is in a food court right before you enter gates A and B at PHL airport. Menu is simple with your choice of a plain steak, cheesesteak, or roast pork sandwich. You can also get a side of regular or cheese fries. They also have a few beer options in addition to some fountain soda drinks. It seems wait time and service have improved. The line moved quickly and I got my Philly cheesesteak (with diced/cooked onions and cheese choice of cheese whiz) within 5 minutes of ordering. It was about $16. Unfortunately they charge extra for other toppings so I can see how this could have easily been a $20+ for a footlong Philly cheesesteak sammi. I haven't had the original to compare it to but this was tasty and had a nice mix of savory (cheese whiz and thin sliced steak) and sweetness (cooked onions) with a nice soft chew for their sandwich bun. Big enough to feed 2 people. They placed a sheet of wax paper on the opening to help keep in the melted cheese whiz and preventing it from making the paper wrap soggy. If you're in a hurry, you can also order online in advance for pickup at the counter by going to the orderatPHL.com website for this venue and other spots inside PHL airport. read more

My hopes weren't very high, as I've had higher quality cheesesteaks before and wanted to try one of the more "touristy" attractions while waiting for my next flight. The good - ordering and receiving food happened very timely. Lot of good customization options on the kiosk. The steak/bread itself wasn't bad, I was a little hung over so this greasy sandwich was what my body needed lol. The cheese wiz I thought was good as well and onions were my favorite part of the meal lol. Nothing stood out but still enjoyed nonetheless. The bad - the price and the portions. Small sandwich, not a lot of meat, definitely would explore other options than spending 18$ on a small cheesesteak. Last thing - i was there in the morning and they were the only shop I found at 10am who wasn't serving breakfast cheesesteaks. So that was convenient since i wanted a Philly and didn't want to have to sub for a breakfast one instead. read more

It's okay. Not enough meat and the meat is bland. I added a lot of salt to bring out the flavors. Not sure if this place is over hyped or I picked the wrong cheesesteak from here. Which cheese do I select: cheddar, provolone, cheese whizz or something else ? read more

Geno's Steaks - Sandwiches Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Let's be clear, this is an airport cheesesteak, and airports are where good restaurants go to die. Philadelphia is a great food city but its airport is no exception. On one of my more recent layovers through PHL I walked for 40 minutes out of my way to hit up one of my favorite local spots for their Italian Roast Pork sandwich and it was horrid. Geno's is an institution in the city of brotherly love, but a quick look at the star rating for the Airport Geno's played to my worst fears. However, taking a deeper dive into the reviews, I was filled with a sense of hope. Perhaps they have been able to turn it around. And when I strolled past the higher rated cheesesteak option nearby, the grill looked sad. So I took a chance on the place and was rewarded with a tasty steak made with care. To be fair, it's probably closer to a three star steak. But the airport Geno's is getting a bonus star for being in the airport with a captive hungry audience and working hard to try and maintain standards against seemingly impossible odds. What some folks may not realize is that Geno's does cheesesteaks differently from what many come to expect from the form. Instead of shaved steak that has been chopped up on the griddle, Geno's carefully lays out thin steak slices on the griddle and lays those whole tender slices in the bun. It would look like more meat if it were all chopped up, but it's a commitment to quality. Chopping up beef gives it more nooks and crannies and gives the impression of a greater volume of meat. However, it can also help to obscure tougher lower quality beef. This standard is held high at the airport location. Big props. While I'm generally opposed to kiosk ordering, thanks to the Geno's kiosk I was prompted to remember I could add cherry peppers on the side of my steak. Having a hit of heat and acidity really helps to refresh one's palate when chowing down on an unconscionable quantity of beef and cheese. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best airport cheesesteak at the moment in Philadelphia. There is room for improvement, and I would highly encourage folks to visit the original locations in town. But should I find myself back in Philly for a layover, and if my doctor hasn't forbidden me from eating such things, you'll likely find me at Geno's. read more

Anyone that gives this a high rating has to either be a tourist or never ate a good cheesesteak before. There is nothing that I like about this cheesesteak, especially after I explored and ate 4 other cheesesteaks that weekend. The meat was dry/rough, the bread tasted fresh out of a bag and there was no flavor other than the cheese. The customer service was great though! read more

"it is what it is"... I think that it was a ok cheesesteak for a dude passing through wanting to eat something while in the middle of a super long layover to another city. Gave me a chance to taste a real Philadelphia cheesesteak, and it's been a while. Was it the best one I've ever had? No,.... but it was ok for airport food so I can't complain. I was the only customer, so it didn't take long at all. read more

They are who we thought they were and we let them beat us. We all know you gotta take the airport quality discount on any airport meal, but boy, this one went straight to the dumps. Both kinds. The meats were just deplorable, the cheapest and most overcooked. Congealed cheese, overcooked onions. The roll has legit actually, but with everything else, yeah skip it don't ship it. read more

This was probably the worst cheesesteak I ever had... maybe because it's in the airport... /shrug. Don't do it!

Cheesesteak is good but the one at pat's(right in front) tastes better. They just have better marketing with lights and signages. It is hard to find parking space here especially during the day! No high chair. Outdoor seating only so you think about it during winter. They ONLY accept cash! And the cashiers are usually rude in tone and service. See images for reference read more

I'm mainly giving this a 3 because I haven't eaten in Philadelphia before, so this has no real comparison good or bad. If I ever do get to visit Philly proper, I'd love to know some favorite cheesesteak spots. :) Speaking of, I went classic on the cheesesteak here, only replacing the onions with peppers. It was a good sandwich and I have no complaints, nor do I have complaints about the employees. This is a fine choice for a layover in Philly. But because this is Philly, the cheesesteak will obviously be something travelers will go for. They want local favorites, so it makes sense to come here and so this place is in high demand. read more

Geno's Steaks - Cheesesteak with Whiz and sweet peppers Welcome to Philadelphia! - Sandwiches Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Stopped by Geno's at the Philadelphia airport and tried two cheesesteaks: one with onions and Whiz, and another with onions and American cheese. Both were delicious, with the flavors you'd expect from a classic Philly cheesesteak... savory, melty, and satisfying. The onions were cooked perfectly, and the cheese blended just right with the steak. I've seen reviews that their original location might be better, but I've yet to try the OG spot yet. My only wish is that the portions were a bit bigger, especially for the price. Solid 3/5 for taste and convenience. Would definitely recommend for anyone passing through the airport! read more

In A Nutshell: -If you don't have a chance to catch the original Geno's location in Philly, you can grab some food at the airport. -The cheesesteak sandwich was good, but I wasn't 100% wow'd by it. -The service at this location is pretty dull & good. -You might as well automate the service here using A.I. & robots. Overall, I wasn't impressed w/ the Philly cheesesteak nor the service. read more

Why would you get rid of the roast pork?! Ugh. Also take the sign down if you aren't going to sell it. Genos is the worst. Staff was INCREDIBLY NICE though. I hope you take care of them although I bet you don't. read more

The roast pork that they are serving here is an insult to Philadelphia's greatest sandwich. It's dry, flavorless, and strangely colored. They don't even gesture at the possibility of doing it right, as there's no option to add broccoli rabe, spinach, or long hots. read more

TERRIBLE. Even for airport food this was bad. Tasteless and overpriced. Not much meat and they charge you for every extra item. Plus a 3% service fee and I had to enter my own order on the screen. I've had a number of great cheesesteaks over the years and this isn't one. I honestly think I could do better at home with a hot dog bun and the frozen steak-ums. Based on the other 250+ Yelp reviews, this place needs to close. Do yourself a favor and eat anywhere else. read more

Nothing more annoying than having to wait behind a bunch of people to order at the one, time-intensive, terribly set up, self serve computer. And then a guy comes out of nowhere to take a bunch of people in front of me. Literally took 4 orders while I waiting for computer to register order. Get more order kiosks. Painful. As far as the cheesesteak goes I just had Tony Luke's last week and that was 10x better than this tasteless excuse for a cheesesteak. I didn't want to let social media sway my experience, but the rumors are true. This meat and cheese has zero flavor or seasoning. The one plus was that the gentlemen that gave me my cheesesteak was nice. read more

Here me out: The Geno's in town taste good! The one in the airport is missing seasoning. Like even some salt and pepper while cooking it would make it taste better. . Just grab a salt shaker and the ratings would go up to a 3.5. read more

Absolute food icon! Completely classic vibe, a must see for anyone in Philly. Fun people, fun food.

So there is always an argument about who makes the best Philly cheese steaks. Geno's is directly located across from Pat's Steakhouse. Both are a unique experience and both usually have a line around the block. Geno's is a bright orange store, open all the time. There is bench seating and a cool vibe do the colors. Parking is literally impossible. You have to drive around and around to get a spot. The shop host cheese steaks that are strips of steak rather then chopped meat. What stands out here is the bread which is super soft and makes the sandwich excellent. The staff is not always friendly. They seem annoyed and impatient. But, it kind of makes the experience whole in some crazy sort of way. I like Geno's. I do. I am always willing to stop here and grab a sandwich when in town. read more

Guy and girl on grill so slow cooking , someone from back brought out a pan full of cooked steak to dump on grill??? I hope or the real restaurant downtown is better than this... 16 bucks ...

I am not sure why this place is so poorly reviewed because I loved my cheesesteak here. I ordered it at an off time where there were no crowds so I got fast and friendly service, but bottom line is that the food itself was good. The bread and gooey melted cheese whiz are the best parts of this cheesesteak and while the steak itself isn't the star, it rarely is with cheesesteaks. I've yet to have one where the steak was actually good steak. I will definitely stop by here next time I'm in this airport. Worth the trek! read more
