    I got the cheesesteak. Solid all around place. wasn't horrible finding parking and plenty of seating inside. award winning pizza and the 3 other people that came in all got something different. Cheesesteak and ice tea, $11.90.

    I LOVE John's Place. That's probably a bit of an outlandish statement to make about a business before ever actually having visited it, but oh well. Oh. Well. I have ordered their delivery far too many times lately. Yeeees, there are other great places in the area for delivery, but I'm hooked on a couple things in particular at John's: 1) New York Pizza. The honey mustard base with the grilled chicken and bacon just makes for one excellent pie. Goodness. 2) Fried Mac and Cheese. They're like mozzarella sticks, but... with mac and cheese inside. They are lovely. You'll get six of 'em. I also like their traditional pizza, Italian hoagie, cheesesteak and chicken salad. Their chicken salad isn't one of my top chicken salads, but it'll do in a chicken salad crunch, so that makes them good in my books. So, yes, try John's Place. They're open early. They deliver fast. They won't kill your wallet. They're just great. I love them so much.

    On my most recent visit, I wanted a salad. I asked if they could make a super veggie salad that pulled together grilled vegetables only offered for hoagies and combined with a cut grilled veggie burger. They were up to the challenge and produced a mind blowing salad. The waitress mentioned that the kitchen got a real kick out of making the super veggie salad. It was better than I could have hoped. The Super Veggie Salad was so legendary that I photographic it and posted it. John's Place treated me like royalty by creating Super Veggie Salad, which I eat all of because it was so delicious. This was fitting since I actually became the Duke of John's Place when checking in on this visit.

    "small" philly cheesesteak pizza
    Eric J.

    Got some quick takeout using the Yelp Eat24 app, which I never used before (more of a Seamless guy myself). Easy enough to navigate, and waited just 10 minutes and my food was ready. The philly cheesesteak pizza was damn good. The crust was very crispy, hot, and they definitely don't skimp on toppings. The "small" pizza was very sizable and more than enough for one person with a big appetite. I also tried the buffalo chicken sandwich, which is also massive. The chicken was fresh and came in huge chunks and the buffalo sauce with blue cheese dressing was unbelievably tasty. The lady at the counter was super friendly and even joked around with me for using the app to order takeout. She seemed to know everyone that came into the restaurant, which gave the joint a very familiar feel. Great place for a quick meal in the Fairmount area. The offerings are pretty unique and the service is always very friendly. It's definitely a neighborhood favorite and I'll be back again.

    I'm really digging their pizza. And their french fries were cooked perfectly. There is nothing worse than limp french fries. Their fries were crispy with a little salt added. The pizza had a perfect cheese to sauce ratio. It was a little oily, but not to the point where oil was dripping off the end of the slice. The lady that took our order was nice, and laughed at the jokes my coworker made about me. But it was all in good spirit. What made the visit best was the fact that they had air conditioning. Esp since it is close to 90° outside. Their pizza is better than some of the close competition pizza places nearby. Will be back again.

    Hand sanitizer ... nice

A little sunny corner restie that is like a little love note to all things Philly sports plus a cool little open kitchen and grab and go section on the side with fridges filled with interesting drinks and homemade salads like a pesto chickpea one that Imma def pick up the next stop I drop in. Ok, onto the eats! 1. Della Casa ($18): A 12-inch soft seeded sando layered with a schmear of balsamic sundried pepper spread, fresh mozz, and hot cappicola dried with Calabrian chili oil and filled with fresh arugula and house roasted eggplant slices. This was good, however, the eggplant felt kind out of place. The slices were large and a little bit too mushy for my liking and it felt like it could have benefitted from an extra meat or contrast to the softness from the mozz, such as fried eggplant instead. All in all a 7 out of 10. Good but wouldn't order again. 2. Turkey Salumeria ($18.50): Another (delicious) 12-inch soft seeded roll saturated with a house creamy balsamic dressing (could have honestly drank this) + mild prov, LTO, sliced turkey and really great cherry pepper relish. This was a pretty basic, but all the parts came together to make a solid sandwich. I wouldn't necessarily order again but the combination of ingredients and the hellish relish made it a 7.5 out of 10. All in all, the quality of the ingredients, the combinations available on the menu and the stellar staff all make LK popular for good reason. While the selections we had this go around didn't wow us (just lacking a certain je ne sais quoi) I do look forward to going back to try the kale chx caesar, some of their cutlet sandos, roast beef and pork and of course the tomato pie and CCC's!

It's listed as a steakhouse because they use premium cuts of steak in their sandwiches. Menu: they are so busy on the weekends that you can only customize the sandwiches on the weekdays. I let my son order and he chose "The Classic" for us to try. Since we were having dinner in a couple of hours, we decided to share. It is pricey for the size. I'm used to having it a footlong at most other places and these are more like half the size. After placing our order on the kiosk, it was ready within minutes. The Classic consists of prime rib, Cooper sharp cheese, buttery steakhouse seasoning with sautéed onions all held intact by this sesame hoagie. OMG!!! My son and I loved it!! I'm salivating as I am writing this review. The Cooper sharp cheese just melts everything together. You can tastes the high quality cuts in their meats. It is now in my top #3. I will definitely be returning to try their other popular creations. Seating is limited. My one little complaint is that I wish they would wipe the tables and barstools down. It was sticky and dirty. Service is excellent even with the soccer match crowds.

I went to Middle Child a few weeks ago just after 3, only to find it closes at 3. Today I returned, around 1, and there was a good crowd there having lunch. I ordered the Surfer, and the Hash Brown Potatoes. The Surfer is Middle Child's most popular sandwich. It's made on a Ciabatta bun, and has a thick layering of tender, lean, House Turkey breast, with melty Swiss cheese, arugula, blueberry chutney, and Duke's mayo. It's hard to describe just how delicious this sandwich was. My biggest concern was the Ciabatta bun - it's not one of my favorites, as I've found them to be tough and difficult to bite through. My fears were quickly put to rest after the first bite! The bun had a slightly crispy exterior - and when I followed through with my first bite, the tender, soft interior of the Ciabatta was a pleasant surprise. In fact, it complemented the thick savory Turkey, arugula, chutney and mayo! It was one of the best Turkey sandwiches I've had. Now, if that wasn't enough, don't forget, I ordered the Hash Brown Potatoes. It said Hash Browns on the blackboard, see attached picture, but these 'weren't your Mama's hash browns'! They are described online as Latka'd Hash Browns. They are thick crispy squares that combine a potato pancake latke with a hash brown texture. The interior reminded me of my mother's potato kugel, which I still reminisce about. In one word, those fried crispy potato squares were outstanding. It's 'a must try' and goes so well with the Surfer! Last, but not least, the Limeade! It was so refreshing! Not too tart, not too sweet... just right! I'll be returning to Middle Child in the not too distant future!

When I was FINALLY acknowledged; I was told here is one order which was ready, "5 mins for the next one" Okay cool. So the order was put on the counter but since people don't like when you just take the order that you have to deliver i again had to wait and try not to interrupt the conversation making me 2 minutes late for the drop off. What could improve?? Why not acknowledge people walking into your store and maybe pause your conversation because you aren't home.

They serve you fresh waster (Drinks to order include Hanks, Boylan's, Harney and Sons, Teas etc.) and will serve you at the table or you can walk up and order at the counter. Their menu has a great mix of deli, steak, "chicken" steak, meatball, sausage and cutlet sandwiches with interesting flavor combos. You can also get breakfast (till 11AM) or a salad. They also have sides that include - tots, fried pickle chips, onion rings, fries, fried mozzarella and Zayda's pickle spears, chips and cherry pepper shooters. They have a couple of vegan options and GF rolls for extra $$. The staff was more than happy to give recommendations and their favs. My first lunch was The Eye - $15 Ribeye steak, Cooper Sharp American, fried onions came on a seeded Liscio's roll. If you enjoy the somewhat newer Cooper sharp style that's out there you'll like theirs. The Cooper sharp was gooey, mixed in well with the meat and on the heavier side. The ribeye was thin cut, delicious and the portion was pretty hefty. Second visit I went with - The Nad - $15 Chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, Mike's Hot Honey that came on an unseeded Liscio's roll. The portion size was good, chicken was fresh with good breading, the hot honey was a tad on the heavy side, but the flavors all came together pretty good on this one. Sweet, salty, light bitterness from the arugula and some heat from the hot honey. I added Thin Cut Idaho fries to make it a combo for $3 extra and I have to say they were delicious. They smelled like McD's and tasted similar. They are cash only, but have an ATM on site. You can use a card if you order online. The one bathroom they have was pretty clean and organized. I will certainly stop back for a visit if I'm in the area to try out more of their menu. Thanks guys!

This is far from the traditional banh mi, not so much due to the meat choice but the fact that the vegetables take a back seat. This is also a soft hoagie style bread instead of the crusty French bread that usually houses a banh mi. Still an enjoyable sandwich nonetheless. To my surprise, the fried potatoes were the highlight of this meal. Tender crispy fried potatoes are simply irresistible. Stockyard definitely has a lot going for it. Worth a try if you are in the area !
