The reviews said that this was the best Philly, the Philly was good but I had better the chipotle mayo was average. I wasn't disappointed in the food by any means because it was still good it's just that everyone in the reviews raved about this place read more

Not the best Philly Cheesesteak. I got the Loaded Cheesesteak and it felt and tasted like school cafeteria food to be honest. The cheese whiz tasted artificial and I wish the steak was crispy and charred a bit. The bun felt like it was just pulled straight from the package. Wish it was at least toasted or buttered or something. The sandwich overall wasn't bad though, it just didn't feel like restaurant quality. The interior decor is fun with the car/construction theme. The service could've been better. The lady taking my order didn't seem very welcoming or thrilled. The cook also looked annoyed when my friends and I walked in (we came in at 2pm). read more

Quite possibly one of the most disgusting restaurants I have ever been in. Napkins out in dispensers. Restrooms lack soap and basic sanitation. Toilet paper and paper towels nkt put in the rolls just sat on the toilet. The soap has been out for months. That means staff isn't washing their hands. Food order was made incorrect and literally almost NO MEAT on the Philly. This is an embarrassment and no question days away from closing read more

came here a lot because it was by the house lol but this is the worst customer service I've experienced in a while for an overpriced sub. Last time I came, I waited 15-20 minutes alone for my pickup order... it got to the point where I just went in the kitchen and grabbed it. Today was even worse. Save yourself the stress, just go to Jersey Mikes (a suggestion I never thought I would make) read more

I tried this place out for lunch yesterday (Downtown Location) after many people told me they had great cheesesteaks. I went around 12:30 and it wasn't busy at all. After perusing the menu for a bit the cashier (Nikka) was so great about making suggestions. She made my experience exceptional with her attention and care. Not sure if its always like that but I would come back simply for the interaction with this lovely lady! Now for the food, my fries were so crispy and the cheesesteak was delicious. I didn't eat in the restaurant but there seemed to be plenty of seating if you did want to eat there. My only qualm with the place was the price. I haven't had a cheesesteak in years so I don't know how much they normally cost. I paid $18 for a 6" or 7" sub with fries and sprite. If I'm not paying I will definitely be back lol read more

Been working in DT for over two year and finally had a chance to eat here. And sadly wish I didn't take this long to try it! I ordered the Philly cheese steak and it did not disappoint. It was a good size and super tasty. I got a side of whiz tots which is just tats with cheese! The staff were super nice and friendly when placing order and serving the food. I definitely will be coming to this location again! Also little nice touch was they has some TVs around the place so you can have something to watch. Wasn't too loud where you can't talk. Very enjoyable. read more

Loading Zone Philly Steaks was a lunch option we decided on since it was a coworker last day. We walked over to Loaded Philly. The young lady that took our order was very pleasure and made us laugh. Great customer service. I had the #2 the sm (yes they have two different sandwich sizes) then I had to add the fries and drink. The food was to me kinda overly high but it's downtown Orlando expected that. The Philly was greattttt! Next time I'll add the lettuce and tomato. I had regular fries and my coworkers had sweet potato fries (as seen in my photos). My drink was the sweet tea and it was sweeten to perfection ! Overall I gave this place a 4. Will I return yes I will next time we will just split the Philly and fries bc it's enough two can share for a lighter lunch read more

Right in the heart of downtown. Some of the best wings I've had in Orlando! Their lemon pepper wings are definitely a must. I got the 5pc and it was honestly the perfect amount. Their fries also had the right amount of salt on them. It was a chill vibe. I think if it was a Saturday or Friday night this place would be packed read more

Found this delightful location to grab dinner before volunteering and ordered the Mushroom Cheese Steak. They brought the sandwich out quickly and it was hot with lots of meat and flavor. This is a smaller location which seats about 20 people. They have done a nice job decorating also. Most tables are high tops with bar stools. read more

This place is OK. I was at the library and figured that I should visit a sandwich shop in Downtown. I had several places bookmarked but something told me to go for a cheesesteak sub, something I hardly ever eat. So I stopped by Loading Zone and ordered a sub with everything. The sub itself was good, I just didn't like the flavor. It was probably the red peppers or something else, but the flavor was too sweet for me. On the other hand, the sub was packed with meat, something that I have seen other shops skimp. It was OK but a good amount of food. read more

Looking for something healthy to eat? Like white tuna fish? Then this place is the place to go for lunch or dinner. The bread was soft and the tuna fish was made perfectly. I love my tuna fish sandwiches made with oil and vinegar for an extra spice of life. I ordered sweet potato fries since I air fry mine at home and it truly was a bad choice. The potatoes were oil fried and I'm not a fan of that way of cooking. If anything just get the sandwich and you'll be just fine. Service was good, restaurant was clean. No long wait time during lunch hour. Definitely will be my go to for tuna salad, unless I make it from home. read more

Typical downtown joint not very clean and smells like a bar. The service was good. Food came out fast and hot. I would say they're downfall of their cheesesteak is their meat you can tell it is very cheap quality beef almost similar to steak-umms (if anyone is wondering what the umms in steak-umms means it means umm we're not really sure what else is inside our processed meat). Their roll was good, but the steak had no flavor even with the onions. I would give them 2 1/2 stars if I could, but I just don't feel they deserve three stars, so I guess we'll have to stick with the two star rating for now. read more

Placed the order on the phone (the employee was very friendly) and picked up to go. The food was ready quick and it was still fresh and enjoyable by the time we got around to eating. I got the smaller size with tots and that was plenty for me, but if you normally like to eat more, maybe opt for the larger option. Would return and would like to try some of their other options! read more

Incredible cheesesteaks. Get the wings and tator tots too. Great service. Loved this place!!

Maybe I went to the wrong location or the wrong people made mine. Mine didn't look NOTHING like the pics on here. I mean NOTHING. I opened it and knew I didn't even want to taste it. The bread doesn't even look baked like the pics I see. The little meat that's on it, doesn't even look seasoned like the pics I see. I can tell from the way the bread feels, that it's gummy, and gluey like raw, unbaked bread. Nothing I want to eat. It's overly wet and moist. It may appear "meaty" in the last photo but as you can see it AIN'T busting out the seams with meat like the other people's pics. Hell I had to open one side to find the meat. I'm so mad and disgusted, I walked to get it, and walked back to my destination with inedible food. IT IS TOO HOT TO BE TRYING FOLKS LIKE THIS. NOT TO MENTION THE STORE'S A/C WAS BROKEN. MAYBE THAT'S WHY MY FOOD WASN'T GOOD. THEM FOLKS COOKING/WORKING IN THERE HOT AS HELL. read more

The food was so good, I forgot to take a picture lol. I went on a Monday night an hour before closing and the staff were still so nice. The restaurant was clean and the food quality was on point! I ordered a basic philly cheesesteak w/ fries. I enjoyed the sandwich more than the fries -- I will try the tots or sweet potato fries next time. To drink, I originally wanted Fanta orange pop but it was out, so I got root beer. The staff member replaced the Fanta after the fact and encouraged me to still get the Fanta once I was ready. I thought that was really nice Will def return! read more

This place is fabulous!!!!! It is the closest we have had to Jim's on South Street since we left the Philly area!!! And definitely give their tots a try!!!! Sooooo good! read more

The chipotle cheesesteak sub was fantastic. The sauce is so good! I ordered extra sauce with it and used all of it.

Not bad at all. It's a good sandwich, but not authentic. The service was friendly and quick. The inside was not very clean. It looked like a bar/restaurant at 2am closing not like a 2pm lunch on a Sunday. Which it was. Tables and floor were very sticky read more

best philly in orlando! I've been to philly and tried an authentic philly cheesesteak before, this is the closest thing to it!

Great!! Highlight was the whiz fries! Despite being smothered in the meaty cheese, the fries were crisp and flavorful. I ordered the basic cheesesteak- just meat and cheese. Very tasty. Good service. Pleasant decor. Nice meal! Late addition / I also got an Italian sub for the next day's lunch. I just took an early "preview" bite. Wow!! It's all I can do to not devour that thing right now. I honestly didn't expect much. Italian subs are an art. Boy was I wrong. They got that sandwich right!!! Perfect balance of meats, spices and veggies on a wonderful hoagie roll. Excellent!! read more

Loading Zone was awesome! The food was fantastic and the staff was so friendly. I had never had a Philly Cheese Steak before and I was so proud to announce to my roommate, who is from Philly, that I had had one and loved it! I got the chipotle cheese steak on the recommendation of the staff. It was so flavorful and the little bit of spice really made the meal. I took home leftovers and they heated up nicely which is always a great bonus. The side that really caught my attention were the whiz tots. Simply put they were tater tots with delicious cheese melted over them. I was in the restaurant for lunch, but I could imagine how much I would love these tots at midnight. Since Loading Zone is located in downtown, I can easily see myself grabbing them as a late-night bite as well as for lunch again. read more

went here for a burger and definitely hit the spot! easily overlooked but the burger packed great flavor and could compete with some bigger chains read more

5 Stars for a Philly cheesesteak that blew me away (even the leftovers I ate a day later), lovely staff, a great location downtown, and fries so good they don't even need ketchup. I had a lunch meeting at Loading Zone the other day and went for their classic Philly cheesesteak (they can sub in chicken if you prefer it to beef, but I went beef), while the other people at my table got the fully loaded Philly and the Chipotle steak sandwich. They let me know the Philly comes with cooked onions (yes, plz) and asked if I had a cheese preference (I went with the standard suggested cheese). We also got cheesy tots, fries, and sweet potato waffle fries. The space itself has plenty of seating, and is located right next to Gringos Locos, off of Orange Ave. I imagine it's NUTS on a Saturday night at 2am, but midweek lunch time it's clean and bright inside. The gal who took our order was energetic and friendly- ready to answer our questions and give her opinion on some favorites. As for the food, I loved my Philly. It had thinly shaved steak with white cheese mixed in and the onions added that extra texture and sweetness. Spot on. My lunch mates seemed to enjoy theirs too. As for the fried sides (we went a little overboard when ordering!), my favorite was the sweet potato waffle fries, with the regular fries coming in a close second. The fries were really well seasoned, to the point where I stopped dipping them in ketchup because they tasted so good on their own. Worth the clogged arteries! Haha I ended up taking half of my sandwich home and reheating the meat (in toast) the next day. It was a full second meal! Overall, I dig it! This is a solid option for lunch downtown, and I imagine a great pre-movie bite to eat at night. read more

We are obsessed! This Philly shop is nearly 40 mins away, and we still make it an option. The Philly are GIANT (even the small one that I get), made to order, and sooooo very good! The ingredients are fresh, and the menu is very easy to understand. I haven't eaten much because once I like something, I stick with it, but I do change up my toppings and I 100% prefer my Philly with cheez whiz. The location is not busy when we go (between 6-8pm), but I'm sure once the club crowd gets out, it's swamped. Go try it! read more

One of the few places specializing in Philly cheese steaks in downtown Orlando, I've been wanting to try this place for a while. My girlfriend and I got the Pizzaroni Cheese Steak and Fully Loaded Cheese Steak with Tater Tots. We wanted to try a little bit of everything. Of course, we had to get the fully loaded, which came with cheese, mushrooms, and onions. The Pizzaroni was an interesting twist, which had cheese, marinara sauce, and pepperoni. Both were pretty stuffed with meat and very tasty. I couldn't decide which one I liked better though. The tots were crispy, but not the stars of the show. I'll definitely be coming back to try their other cheese steaks. read more

Yes, alllll the cheesesteaks please. Located in the space that used to be Beth's Burger bar, this is a great addition to the downtown Orlando food scene. Was so happy to find a good cheesesteak! Side items include tater tots or fries. Love that I can get a mushroom cheesesteak with provolone or whiz (if you're to whiz). This is like a "hangry need to be filled up" kinda place. Definitely come here hungry. It's fast casual where you order and pay at the front then get a number and go find a seat. Got the smaller size sandwich but next time I might upgrade the size and skip the side items. The tots were good but wish they had a side of like Cajun spice or old bay seasoning on the counter to kick up the flavor of the tots and fries (hint!). Will definitely be back and likes the casual atmosphere and swift service. read more

This was a quick lunch but was really good . We both got the loaded philly with fries . It has peppers, onions,mushrooms and cheese. The bread was really soft and awesome. It was piping hot and the perfect mix . The crew was really awesome. The cashier was nice . The cook brought our sandwiches outside to us . He noticed we didn't have napkins and went in and got some for us, unasked. Nice experience! read more

We stopped into the wonderful restaurant after attending Pride Orlando. The guy who took our order was very nice and helpful. The order came out fairly quick as they do make each cheesesteak fresh. The Philly cheesesteaks were delicious. I highly recommend eating there. It's a really cool atmosphere, but the choice of music was a little to much, but just a minor thing to mention. We will return. read more

New concept in the old Beth's Burger Bar location. I was there for soft open and they were humming! Staff was very friendly and helpful since the menu board was not up yet. I grew up outside Philadelphia so I am pretty picky with my cheesesteaks. I don't bother to order from Subway, Firehouse or Johns because I am always disappointed. That said... this place is pretty darn good. They obviously use a quality cut meat and have the white American cheese to meat ratio down! Rolls are key and they were perfect. They have side options like fries, tots, waffle sweet potato and chicken tenders. Soda fountain and tea tins. Want a good cheesesteak? Definitely go check them out! read more

Ehhh I have been on a HUNT for a good Philly. A lot of people will say LESPADAS ... but I do not fancy their cheese steak either. I thought maybe loading zone could show me "this is where my Philly cheese steak search ends" ... unfortunately after many reviews - where I thought maybe this was the end of my search.... Noupe. This isn't it either. I will say it's better than a lot that I have tried. However - it was not it. If it remotely tastes like steak-umms- there is a heavy issue. For it being located in Downtown- I thought for sure - it would be 12/10 . But so sorry Loading Zone . This isn't it either. I got a regular cheese steak - with American cheese and onions..... yeaaaaaaaa . No bueno. NOT horrible but dang not it ... on the search for the IT PHiLly in FLA... search will continue . Loading zone was not horrible just did not get my taste buds into a block party - which I know can happen. read more

I got the large Chipotle Cheesesteak and some tots for lunch. I was very impressed that they used Cheese Whiz and American cheese. My friends from Philly say that's the only way it should be served. The bread left something to be desired but the sandwich was decent. The tots were nice and crispy, but a little overpriced in my opinion. Next time, I think I'll skip the tots and just go with a small sandwich. The large was enough for two meals read more
