    I guess Yelp didn't like my comment about the pictures quality haha Well I don't remember everything I said but good mom and pop restaurant. Tasty and cozy. Their French bread is soft but not soggy like the Cheese Steak Shop. Large side portions. You're welcome for the quality menu photos

    Classic

    I called in to place my order, which was quick and easy. I ordered the classic steak which came with steak fries and a ginger ale. The total was $17 and some change. I was about 10 mins. away and arrive around 11:45am. I was able to get a park right out front. Upon entry, I was greeted and assisted promptly as no one was inside. Meat was seasoned well, and fries were good.

    Deluxe Philly Cheesesteak
    Loredo L.

    We were in town for an AAU boys basketball tournament and stopped by here for a quick sandwich lunch. The place is a classic hole in the wall place that looks 50's old but very clean inside. The owner was at the front register and said she was Korean. Everything was made within minutes and we dined in. I loved my #6 Philly cheesesteak and cheese fries. The portions were very generous. My family enjoyed their lunches as well. The prices were reasonable and represented a good value. Highly recommend!

    The service is nice and polite.. the place is clean but a bit outdated.. the food is fresh and delicious.. prices are reasonable I would recommend

    Fries
    Markus Y.

    The portions are huge! The food's also freshly cooked (service is great), and we demolished the two sandwiches between three people within minutes (I forgot to take a picture; we were pretty ravenous.) I'd definitely suggest teriyaki and personal; monster size, if you are planning to split. The sandwiches come with steak cut fries. The place is clean and well kept, and there's street parking available; ambiance is very homey. (Here's some pics of fries. It was the only thing i can salvage after I realized nobody took pics.)

    It's a small local shop for cheesesteaks in SL. I've lived in Philadelphia for 4 years so I've had my fair share of cheesesteaks, and this unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. The bread was a bit tough and there wasn't too much meat or cheese. The flavor of the meat is fine and there is a solid amount of fries so it'll fill you up. There is some seating inside and the service is good.

    Steak hoagie (no bun) with bacon, mushrooms and peppers over fries
    Nichelle P.

    This has been my favorite little spot for years. They are always so kind and friendly. The food is always great. I usually order my hoagie with no bun and have them put it over the fries. It's bomb. Try it :)

    On the menu, it's says San Leandro's guilty pleasures. That's what is being served at Hoagy Steak. Famous for the cheesesteaks but they also have teriyaki rice plates, burgers, seafood plates, and mush more. It was challenging for me to just order one thing because a lot of items on the menu sounded good to me. But I stuck with what I originally came to try which was the cheesesteak. So how was it? It was solid. Not the best I've had and I think I would ask for 50% more meat that is offered for an additional $4. But overall the bread was soft and toasted perfect. The meat was seasoned well but chopped a little more finely than I'd prefer. I asked for provolone and American cheeses for the contrast which was good. Fries were excellent with crunchy exterior and a soft meaty potato filling inside. The owners were very nice and hard working people. Can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu.

    I've been eating here since the mid to late 90s when they opened. This is definitely a staple in San Leandro. And one of my go to spots not really a traditional Philly cheesesteak, but the bread is fantastic, the meat is always cooked perfectly and the cheese is nice and gooey. The owners are friendly people and the service is quick. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for my food. I've eaten here hundreds of times and never get tired of it. Definitely my top three Philly cheesesteak places this is in it. You can never go wrong with the number one or the sleazy cheesy or the personal.

    Mushroom (monster - 50% more meat and cheese) & Onion rings
    Jennifer C.

    I really wanted to give this more than a 3 star because I have a soft spot for mom and pop shops, but there really just wasn't anything that would warrant a return visit. Got a deluxe with curly fries and a mushroom (monster size) with onion rings. We added onion to both for no extra charge (don't forget to request this or you won't get your onions!). Deluxe and curly fries were fine - no specific complaints, but generally forgettable and just "good" (hence the 3 stars). We did have some issues with the monster mushroom and onion rings though. First, meat to cheese ratio felt way off. It was clear they added more meat to the sandwich but the cheese looked and tasted nearly nonexistent. Onion rings also smelled and tasted fishy. We're assuming they used the same oil as their fish n chips and it was just not a pleasant experience. Overall, wanted to love this place but didnt. Glad others love it and will support them though!

    #5 with cheese fries

    Back again! This time for a hoagy burger with American Cheese on a french roll. The service is fast and friendly. The vibe is classic burger joint.

    They have bad business practices. Added 4 dollars because I wanted cheese fries instead of regular. Price gouging with a smile :)

    Premium burgers at a premium price--but thankfully, they deliver. I ordered the signature A+ Burger…read moreand enjoyed it out on the patio, and it was delicious. I love that you can choose the doneness of the patty. I went with medium, and it came out perfectly cooked. The bun was soft, buttery, and rich without feeling too greasy, and every ingredient seemed intentional and added something distinct to the burger. It is a very large burger, though, so be prepared for it to get a little messy. There is a restroom where you can wash your hands, but it requires a key, so bringing hand sanitizer or wet wipes may be helpful. Overall, the burgers are definitely on the pricier side, but I thought the quality justified it. I'd happily come back again.

    I've always enjoyed A+ Burger. The turkey burger is delicious, which is why this experience was so…read moredisappointing. I order my turkey burger wrapped in lettuce because I don't eat bread. What I don't understand is why I'm charged an additional $2.50 for the lettuce wrap when I'm not even getting the bun. If you're taking something away, what's the justification for adding an extra charge? I could understand a modest upcharge, but $2.50 for a few leaves of lettuce is hard to justify. I can buy an entire head of lettuce for about that price. What bothered me even more was that no one mentioned the charge when I placed my order. It wasn't until I picked up my food and saw the receipt that I realized I had been charged extra. Customers deserve to know about additional charges before they order, not after the fact. When I politely asked why there was a $2.50 charge, the employee simply looked at me and said, "I don't know." There was no explanation, no offer to ask someone else, and no attempt to address a perfectly reasonable question. That level of customer service was just as disappointing as the surprise charge. The burger was excellent, but this experience left a bad taste in my mouth. At this point, I don't plan on coming back. Or maybe I'll just bring my own lettuce next time. Better yet, just give me the burger without the bun, and I'll wrap the damn thing myself when I get home.

A bunch of places were mentioned and I looked up pretty much all of them, but this one looked the best based on the kind of burgers I like. I love a charbroiled burger where you can actually see and taste the char, a soft bun, and melted American cheese. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with an extra slice of cheese, swapped the regular onions for grilled onions, and got the fries extra crispy. The burger was amazing. You could really taste the char on the patty, and they even char the bun, which I loved. Everything worked really well together, and it was so good without tasting heavy or greasy like some burgers can. The fries were good, but I personally prefer thinner fries, more like McDonald's size. If I changed anything, I would've asked for extra mayo on the burger. Definitely coming back!
