We stopped in on a state college trip and oddly a lot of places were closed this Sunday. This was one of the few places open and located in what I think is the old Jersey Mikes building. Entered and were greeted warmly and had our order taken. Place was decently busy with a lot of to go orders. Got our order fairly quickly. I just got the basic burger special they had that came with fries and a drink for $10. Solid deal in my opinion. We've been back a few times and this place has become a staple of our trip. Since BRGR went out of business this is one of the few places we can get a solid burger and fries.

Make sure you get their cheese whiz as it's on point and very good compared to shitty Penn steaks. I am a student here at psu originally from the Philly area and after trying so many Philadelphia cheesesteaks I can certainly say Ernies is most definitely the top of the line classic philly cheesesteak you can get here. Not only that but they are cheap, go with a friend and buy two cheesesteaks there for only $19, that's considerably cheaper than any cheesesteak you can get in the Philadelphia area considering they're about $14-$16 apiece.

It was plenty of food for us. The sauce was a little spicy if you're not into spice but I thought it was great. My dad had the bbq pork which he loved. And my fiancé had a small cooper steak with a side of fries which was fabulous as well. Everything has really great flavor. The price of the special was so great it was so much food and the price for the small cheesesteak was also great. Everyone loved the fries. I'm more of a crispy fry person but I did manage to find some. We ate there and there's plenty of seating. They also bring your food to the table and the wait wasn't long at all, we will be back!

It is a college scene and we were there on a Saturday night, so business was good at Big Dean's. One suggestion for staff, be more active on wiping down tables.

We met Lance, who both struck up conversations with us and made us feel right at home and even offered us water while we waited. The cheesesteaks were outstanding. Huge portions with perfectly seasoned steak. The next evening we came back for dinner just after they had closed. A woman saw us outside trying to come up with a backup plan and kindly invited us in to see if they could still help. Her husband Brad invited us in as Lance remembered us from the day before and they happily made us sandwiches. They were also cleaning out the ice cream machine from the day and gave us and passerby's free shakes instead of letting them go to waste. The food was amazing, but the kindness and customer service were what really stood out. Penn Steaks is now our State College go to! Check them out!!

Menu has Pizza, Stromboli's, Salads, Subs, and various other items. I've dined here twice and both times went with the two slice Pizza combo that is reasonably priced. Pizza slices here are large. One thing that stands out is Ville Billy's does use a slightly stronger cheese then most other Pizza places. They also serve Pepsi products and the fountain is self-serve. Overall, nice place for a few slices and I hope they are able to keep going at the Nittany Mall.
