The place is cute, the stairs at the entrance are lethal, so take care going in and out. There is a small seating area in front and no lot, but room to park on the street. I poked around a bit while I waited for my order, the cheeses were unique and pricey as they are at every cheese shop I've visited, I may be back for some.

Just finished a full Philly cheesesteak and it definitely hit the spot. I went with onions,…read morepeppers, cherry peppers, and light mayo--the flavors were spot on. The Highlights: * Proportions: Excellent meat-to-topping ratio. They don't skimp on the steak, which is always the biggest test. * Flavor: The cherry peppers added a great kick that cut through the richness of the meat and mayo perfectly. * Quality: A really solid, hearty sandwich that feels worth the order. One Small Note: The full sub comes as one continuous sandwich. If you're looking to split it or just prefer smaller halves, you'll want to grab a knife or ask them to slice it for you, as mine came uncut. Overall, a great lunch spot if you're craving an authentic-feeling Philly. I'll definitely be back!

Krave Cheesesteaks has had a lot of good buzz from the CT Foodie, Blogger and Instagram Community…read more I was recently able to visit for lunch. I live in the Hartford area, Krave certainly has one of the better cheesesteaks within a reasonable driving distance. The seating area has two person tables. They were both full most of the time I was there. Luckily, one was opening up as my cheesesteak was done and I was able to eat there. They could fit one more 2 person table there, and that seems like a good idea from what I saw. Service was friendly. I ordered a cheesesteak, which automatically comes with onions, Cherry peppers, whiz and American Cheese. I added sweet peppers, mushrooms, Mamba Sauce (described as a sweet hot sauce) and mayo. The steak was obviously fresh. It was maybe cut a bit thicker and coarser than many places. My preference would be a touch thinner. I also could have used a bit more seasoning on the steak itself. I was looking forward to the cherry pepper flavor, but it didn't stand out. I wonder if they misunderstood and substituted the sweet peppers for the cherry peppers instead of including both. The bread was about average for a cheesesteak. I think there's an opportunity to level up there. The other toppings were generally good. I've heard good things about the "salmon steak" and the "shrimp steak". I'll possibly be back to try the shrimp steak at some point. 4.25 Stars

Update : ok I ordered on DoorDash another time unfortunately, I receive the classic vegan chicken sandwich instead of the buffalo vegan chicken sandwich that I ordered. When I called, they were going to refund me for the sandwich or give credit. I took the credit and today I got the vegan buffalo chicken sandwich. It was delicious. I was actually nervous about the bacon and called them to confirm it actually was vegan as well as the cheese. It was very good so glad they are here in Meriden. We

And when my mother accidentally dropped our empty drink cups on the floor, she very cheerfully replaced them. We'd never tried DiBella's before, but the whole experience was exceptional, and I hope the employee we interacted with is recognized by management for her excellent customer service skills.
