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. At $21, it's not the cheapest cheesesteak in town, but it's worth every penny. Every bite reminds me why I keep coming back. I absolutely love this place!

Ordered one cheese steak and waffle fries w/ cheese to share and it was MORE than enough for two people. Very good cheese steak, especially the bread, but everything was very salty... Biggest complaint is telling you go up stairs or outside after ordering... no thanks! Also, I went to grab the food and had a weird interaction as they forgot my fries and then I went back to get them and they wanted my name, but they never asked for a name on the order... Then a guy just gave me the rest of my order... Weird. Good food, but strange interactions with staff made it a little unpleasent.

They let me try some of the cheese. We ended up buying hot soppressata, iberico de cebo Chorizo, duck mousse with port wine, and ibérico de cebo Jamón. I loved the duck mousse, it had a pâté consistency. The Chorizo had a good kick to it, more than the soppressata but both were delicious and paired well with the Rattlesnake cheese that I got. The cheese was also spicy and had great flavor.

My husband and I ordered one cheesesteak with cooper sharp, fried onions and mushrooms. We also got a cheese fries with cheese on the side so we can dip it in. The roll was soft and crunchy on the outside. The meat inside of plentiful and had a good cooper sharp cheesy flavor. The cheese dip that came with the fries was also excellent. I liked the sandwich overall but which I could take more of the seasoned meat then the other all cheese from the sandwich. The cheese is really good but mostly that is all you can taste. Either way great meal and reasonably priced compared to other cheesesteaks in the city.

This is not a typical cheese "shop" because it is a cheese wholesaler. So, how did I end up being…read moreable to review this place without buying enough cheese to feed 10-100 people? Well, I bought cheese for 100 people because I felt like it (lol). If you are one of the few avid readers of my reviews, you probably know that TooGoodToGo is what I used. This is a hard deal to get and make time for. I have been to High Fidelity and 20th St. Pizza, which uses this cheese. Why would Bandit use TooGoodToGo? More like why not. In keeping in line with vegan ideals and sustainability, minimizing waste and allowing others a chance to get a good deal on a quality product is a winner in my book. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a one man operation but a damn good one. A man who I picked up my cheese from seemed to match up with the picture of the owner on the website. A cooler with cheeses for the many people who ordered. I only could buy one when I saw this pop up. It really is out of my way and I don't have a lot of time to get this deal. It is also not offered often. So it was nice to get in on this. When you pick up cheese, you meet outside Persimmon coffee. So, the wholesaler room, wherever it is, is off limits unless you want to buy cheese for 100 people. Then maybe not haha. This or multiple places in the Bok building would be a nice place to have a Yelp Elite event. Their website shows that they used to be called Conscious Cultures. A name I like more. The name, Bandit, makes it feel like the company ran away from a grassroots environment to a more official brand. Kind of like Katy Perry's The One That Got Away but with cheese instead (rolls eyes at appropriately bad, cheesy reference). The idea that this is kind of hard to get as a deal but feasible feels like that secret that any foodie has gotta experience. It seems you can get this cheese at its regular prices at Di Bruno's and a few other local markets in (Hockessin, Skippack) co-ops, and restaurants. Say, Merzbacher's and Bandit collab at future wine events?

Orders are placed through self-service kiosks, and you wait for your name to be called when your food is ready. They also have a full bar, which is a nice bonus. The reason I deducted a star was the service. There were several dirty tables when I arrived, and despite asking multiple times for one to be cleaned, I was told there was only one server working. After waiting about 15 minutes, I started wiping down the table myself, and only then did someone come over to help. The food was excellent, but the service and cleanliness could definitely be improved.
