Stayed true and got a classic with provolone. I had one of these twenty years ago in Philadelphia proper and I will say this is the best I've had since. The Classic is a truly yummy sandwich. The melted mix of meat, cheese, and onions is outstanding. The bread was soft and held the sandwich together nicely. Excellent. The fries are really good and you absolutely need these. Next time won't be first time and I'll plan my meal and errand schedules better. I'm planning on working top to bottom on the menu.

Now you only get that basement vibe when you head to the bathroom. lol Monti's is a legit cool kid now, and I'm not mad at it at all. The cheesesteak? Still doing what it's supposed to do. I ordered one to go and demolished it later that night, like usual. I did sit in and have a few beers and bites. Somehow I've been sleeping on the onion rings and wings this whole time. Listen, listen, listen, Linda, the onion rings; Do Not Change Them!!! Don't you dare switch to those battered, frozen, chain-restaurant rings of bull-s. These are the good rings. Now, the wangzzzz. I'm not going to pretend these are the absolute best wings in the entire city, but they are absolutely in the "I will randomly crave these on a Tuesday" category. The meat could use a little marinade situation to bring more flavor inside, but that crispy coating holds up to the sauce like a champ. I like it, I like it, I like it. Extra points for a buffalo sauce that actually has some thickness to it and isn't just "here's some hot sauce, on a wing being called buffalo sauce. Now, I am going to need to try some of the other wing sauces, but if they hold up too. I would rather come here than go to some other well known wing spots. Honestly, I can see myself rolling through just for wings, rings, and vibes. And that Golden Monkey beer? Yeah, go ahead and keep that on tap forever. Please and thank you. haha

While passing through the area my wife found this hidden local gem and it was well worth the stop…read more I am even thinking about going back tomorrow. We talked to the person there and found it was run by his family, and they do an exceptional job. My wife had the Liberty Cheesesteak with added onions while I had a combo Italian Beef/Italian Sausage sandwich - dipped with added onion, hot pepper and cheese. We also had a side of fries. Both sandwiches were big, which you would expect. The Philly had finely chopped steak with the peppers, onions and cheese all mixed in. My wife said it was fantastic. My combo was incredible. The beef was seasoned perfectly and was clearly not sitting all day in the au-jus (which when talking to the owner afterwards he confirmed was the case). You can always tell this because the meat had a nice texture and was not overly salty, but instead as I stated seasoned and cooked perfectly. Additionally, the fries were well cooked, crisp and hot. They take care to keep the oil fresh and clean, so the fries taste like fries instead of old dirty oil. As an added bonus he even treated my pup to a small dish of ice cream which she enjoyed on a hot day. Fortunately, we showed up a little after the lunch rush and was able to spend a few minutes talking about the business and baseball and our combined hate of the dreaded Dodgers. Even if I don't go back there tomorrow, it's definitely a must stop next time through the area.

We ordered 2 foot long sandwiches, one pastrami and one original cheese steak with cheese whiz on the side, a large cheese fry, and an order of onion rings totaling $58+. Both sandwiches again had no meat on 2 inches of both ends at $18 each. The $8.99 order of onion rings consisted of only 4 small rings & 4 larger rings. The large cheese fry order was re-fried old hand cut fries that were dark brown and smelled like old fryer oil which stunk up my truck all the way home. The cups of cheese whiz had white bubbles in them??? Again, this is my second recent visit with poor quality, stingy amounts of meat and onion rings, burnt re fried French fries in old oil, and gross cheese sauce! Completely unacceptable considering the prices and continued poor practices. I would not recommend takeout unless you inspect each item before leaving because if you call, multiple times, the owner is only there from 10am to 2pm. BTW, he is the one who made my food items. You can go to a nice diner for these prices and enjoy your food. Choose wisely!

Even though it took 25 minutes to get my order, the food was still HOT! Not warm, but HOT! And the drink was cold and undiluted! What?! Now the quality. Y'all, nobody told me these cheesesteaks were going to be so freaking good and with a GOOD amount of meat! The bread was SOFT! The onions were caramelized with just enough crunch left to give them character, but not enough for them to be acrid and offputting. That's not cheap cheese on it either. Not paseurized processed cheese product crap, but REAL CHEESE! I wanna know where they get their jalapenos because I want some for cooking at home. No lie. I don't know what kind of oil and season are used for the fries, but I'll make the trip out to Gurnee Mills just for a load of their fries. You would think it's hard to mess up fries, but almost every eatery in the area does. They should send spies into Charleys to discover how to do better. I'm doubling down on cardio for the next few days just for today's lunch. Worth it.

I guess to park that's not really that expensive but when you're just going in for a sandwich, it seems like a bunch. I ordered my Philly with onions and green peppers with the American cheese and it was as good as the one on Belmont. The place is a little dirty. The bathrooms are horrendous just as bad as the ones on Belmont you used to be. I don't know why it's so hard for people to use the restroom without leaving an extreme mess. So I would say the biggest downfall is how disgusting the bathrooms are. The place is older so it isn't the cleanest looking of places, but unlike the one on Belmont, I left and didn't get food poisoning. It had been several years since I had a Philly because after you get food poisoning on something you don't wanna eat it for a long time.

Very cute place with great oldies music, played at a comfortable level. Fantastic service!…read more My husband loved his food: cheesy garlic bread, one sausage slice and one pepperoni slice. Sadly, no vegan options, even the salads had meat and cheese. There was one Veggie Sub that I could have ordered without cheese, but nobody was able to give me an answer if the bread contained dairy or egg. They also were unable to show me the packaging so that I could read the ingredients. They do offer a "gluten-free" pizza, but for true Celiacs, are unable to confirm that it does NOT come in contact with any gluten. So, safe for anyone who is not a true Celiac and chooses to eat gluten-free. Bonus: Buy 2 slices, get a cola free! Perhaps not the best move for the business, as they sell a DELICIOUS slushy lemonade.

It is very casual and welcoming, and it honestly feels like a place that has something for everyone. We ordered the cheese pizza, veggie pizza, mozzarella sticks, and fries and everything came out fresh and satisfying. The pizza was super cheesy and the sides were a great addition. They also have a lot of dessert options, which was a nice surprise. We tried the black cherry and mango Italian ice, Eli's plain cheesecake, tiramisu, and a chocolate chip cookie and everything was really good. Another fun touch is the mini arcade inside, which makes it a great spot for families, groups, or just a laid back meal. Overall a great casual pizza spot with tons of options and desserts. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the Arlington Heights or Hoffman Estates area.

It's a must for me. The ambiance is like your typical fast/casual chain with a soda fountain machine and condiment area and pretty clean place to sit down and eat. Overall, this is a go to hot sandwich shop for me.
