    Cajun Dry Rub Wings
    Nicole C.

    Me and my husband 100% over ordered but it was well worth it cause everything was amazing! Plus we had plenty of leftovers to enjoy at home. The day we went in they just started serving tomato pies so everyone got a complimentary slice. It will deff be a great addition to their menu. We ordered a standard pie with peppers on it. The caesar salad was the best caesar salad I've ever had out at a restaurant. Typically restaurants just give you romaine with nothing else but this salad was loaded with roasted peppers which are my favorite!! The wings are identical to Gaul House (same owners) and they're one of my absolute favorite dry rub wings in the area. I can't speak on the pasta & sausage as I don't like spicy sauce but my husband enjoyed it!

    I wasn't aware that Joseph's was under new ownership. It only hit me when I saw the Joseph's Pizza logo on a sandwich wrapping paper down the street at the Gaul & Co. Malt House. With the weather being absolutely perfect on Friday, I decided to pop by. It was very lively inside. The last time I visited Joseph's was in the early 2000's and don't remember it ever being that busy. The seating and decor didn't change much but it's always been a cozy interior in my opinion. I noticed they serve alcohol and I'm pretty sure they never used to. We started with an order of fries and a Vampire Slayer pizza. The fries were good but didn't have salt on them. The Vampire Slayer pie was slammin' - some slices were greasier than others. I loved the thin crust. It would've been better with veggies but I wanted to try it as is first. Next time I'll definitely get it with toppings. I'm stoked about the Joseph's revamp. This is a great spot to take out of town guests, especially with the pizza mural outside.

    We recently found this spot and have lived near it all our lives! The food is delicious we usually opt for the pizza steaks but, this time tried the pasta and it was also super good! We also got the cheese fries because, they are a must! Staff is great, and fast arrive! Cute spot locally!

    Ugh! First visit was great. Takeout order was perfect. No issues. Second visit..ugh. I got onion rings that were over cooked. I thought I was going to crack a tooth. The chicken tenders were overly cooked as well. Four tiny pieces for $15.

    Queen Bee PIZZA
    Deirdre C.

    Decided to come here for dinner Friday night. I had never been before but heard good things about it. There is a parking lot next to the restaurant so that's always a plus! We were able to be reseated right away which was great! I didn't realize how big the restaurant was until we walked through two dining rooms before coming to the last one which is where we were seated. We ordered a Caesar salad (regular size was plenty for two people) to start and the Queen Bee pie with pepperoni. Everything was SO GOOD! Oh and we also had a few drinks-I enjoyed a wonderful espresso martini!

    Had a great time this evening. Ordered a few beers and spent time mingling with my husband after a hard work week. The seating in here is so comfy and nice. We ordered a pepperoni mushroom pizza to share and we were not disappointed. Be prepared to sit and wait for 30-45 minutes. This place gets busy and the waitresses are doing everything they can to get food out and make customers happy. The table next to us stormed out of here because they didn't get their food quickly, and that was sad. I wish they ordered a beer and relaxed like we did. We came for an experience and got what we asked for. Great food, great ambience, great service. We'll definitely be back.

    Delicious.    No other word can really describe when we visit Joseph's, you walk in the sweet smell of Heaven fills the air.

    The food is okay, nothing special. In a pinch it's good for takeout. Pizza looks great in pics but it lacks flavor, not sure why.

The service is fast, friendly, and consistently on point. I also appreciate that they'll toast the sesame roll upon request--it adds the perfect texture and takes the sandwich to the next level.

We also got a few of their packaged drinks. The guy taking our order was very nice and there was plenty of seating and it seemed like there was additional seating upstairs, but we didn't have to head up there. The bathroom was nice and clean. As for the food, the Philly cheesesteak was massive, but tasted just okay. It seemed quite heavy on the bread. I think my husband maybe ordered wrong as he should've gotten the cheese whiz or maybe gotten the one with peppers. We've definitely had better cheesesteaks. The waffle fries were fries: tasty and delicious. My MIL's caprese salad was interesting. It was atop a bed of greens which was unexpected. It was also $15 which seemed a little extravagant for what it was. Overall, it was a decent meal and tasty. I'd hit it up for lunch of you're in a pinch and you'd definitely have leftovers for later as well.

    On a recent trip to the area, I took some time to visit South Philly to give Pat's a try. I was in…read moreChester for a football game, but made some time to stop by both of the city's famous Cheesesteak stands. The Original Pat's King of Steaks is located in South Philly, specifically in the Passyunk Square neighborhood. It sits at the intersection of East Passyunk, South 9th, and Wharton. The building has many different signs and lights that will let you know that you are in the correct place. Since this is in the city, parking can be somewhat tricky. There are times I have had to circle around, or get whomever I was with to drop me off and have them come back. However, sometimes I have secured street parking not too far away. This will just depend on the time of day, and really the luck of the draw, if you are able to easily locate parking. This is an outdoor stand, meaning there is no inside to enter. You will order at the counter, and food is packaged to-go. However, there are some tables surrounding the building that you can dine at. They are all under the roof overhang, so you will be somewhat protected from the elements. On this day, it was not terribly busy. I really did not have to wait in any kind of line before being able to place my order. This was around 4:00 on a Saturday in September. First, I took some time to look over the menu posted near the sidewalk. There is also a helpful guide on "how to order a steak," for those that are unfamiliar. When it was my first time here, I actually found the humorous display very helpful. I placed my order for two classic Cheesesteak Wit, made with Cheez Whiz. When ordering, you specify if you want Wit (with onion) or Wit-Out (no onion). Given that I was wanting to try the most authentic sandwich I could, I opted for the onions and the traditional Cheez Whiz. My sandwiches only took a minute or so to be ready. As stated, it was not busy, and they are able to whip up these sandwiches rather quickly. I ended up taking my sandwiches to-go, and having them for meals the next few days. They reheat well, and have good flavor. I like having the onions on it for an added texture. Pricing is not terrible. Pat's is more expensive than Geno's by $2 for the same sandwich. My total was $36 after tax for the two sandwiches, making them $18 each. You definitely are paying for the experience and the novelty that is coming to this famous corner of Philadelphia. But, this price is not out of the ballpark of other places in the area. The sandwich is a decent size, and you can definitely get two meals out of it if you are eating it by yourself. So, all that considering, it is a fair value for what you pay. It seemed like most menu items were $20 or under. FYI, they take both cash and card. The staff are quick and efficient. However, it will not be the most friendly or pleasant experience, especially if you do not know how to order. I am not saying that the experience was poor by any means, but be aware that this is not Disney World and they will not be overly kind to you at the order window. Being from Pittsburgh, I had never had a true Philadelphia Cheesesteak sandwich until a few years ago when I visited for the first time. Since that trip, I typically make it a point to stop and get a few sandwiches to take back home with me. I enjoy coming to Pat's for the atmosphere, and the true taste of Philadelphia. I recommend giving it a try at least once, just to say you have had it. Plus, the sandwiches are pretty tasty, too. I will definitely be back here on future trips to South Philly.
