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

Great cheesesteaks and people! We stopped in for a quick lunch after the PEZ Visitor Center and…read morereally enjoyed the food. We got a buffalo chicken cheesesteak, which was ok (my bad for ordering the liquid cheddar on it instead of suggested pepper jack), the chipotle cheesesteak, which was great and an OG cheesesteak, which was excellent. Very tasty fries too. The guy we ordered from was really nice and patient - and guided us through the menu. Such a nice family owned business. Can't recommend enough for lunch!

Stopped into Fat Daddies Cheesesteaks while traveling because I always check Yelp for the best…read morelocal eats, and wow, this place did not disappoint! The reviews were glowing, and the photos had my mouth watering, so I had to give it a shot. As someone born and raised in Philly, I'm extremely picky about my cheesesteaks. Let me tell you, this one hit the spot. The steak was perfectly seasoned, the cheese was melty and generous, and the roll? Absolute perfection.....just the right amount of chew without being too soft. Every bite was exactly what a cheesesteak should be. If you're craving a legit cheesesteak, Fat Daddies is the real deal. I'd give it six stars if I could. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town! Next time I'll take pictures I gobbled it down in the car. no crumbs left.

I got the authentic cheesesteaks with cooper sharp American and cooper sharp pepper American along with onions and sweet peppers and a side of Old Bay fries at the bartender's recommendation. The roll was fresh baked with a crispy out shell and soft and fluffy center, which held all the flavors. All of the ingredients were fresh, with meat pouring out of the sandwich and served piping hot. I ate every last bite despite being too full to do so. The bartender was awesome to everyone!! I requested a soda water with a lime. He took the time to add fresh lime juice to the drink, knowing that last the taste I ultimately wanted. Club soda with lime is my go to drink and I've never had someone even offer to do that. The decor is Philly sports bar themed as one would expect a cheesesteak restaurant to be but it wasn't over the top. This is best cheesesteak I've ever had that wasn't served under a bridge in Philly.

We were new to this restaurant, yet he treated us like old friends. We both decided to try the cheesesteak sandwiches and we split an order of fries and onion rings.

Regular sized fries are more than enough for 2 to share. I'm definitely looking forward to trying breakfast items and the soups. You definitely have 2 new loyal customers!!
