    Philadelphia Cheesesteak Adventure
    James P.

    I got the mushroom steak. I was standing next to a Liscio's bread box, which made me happy. It was raining so I had a car picnic. I was not very excited when I unwrapped my cheesesteak. It was looking a little thin. I was happy when I broke it apart to take my center-cut picture because there was a sneaky good amount of meat in the Liscio's roll. I was even more happy to see that the grill guy got the provolone cheese to melt. I got sweet peppers, they added a nice flavor. Nice place and people. I wish the Cheesesteak was a little bigger.

    They posted a picture of their food which had steak fries, I didn't receive steak fries..I received cheap, thin, dry crinkle cut fries which ended up in the trash. As for the onion rings, they are fast food style. The ones in their picture look pretty good, were these the same ? Maybe, I'm not sure so I won't worry about the rings, just know a small box is $5..fast food style, not big breaded ones. As you can see, the cheesesteak was very light on the meat. I feel like I wasted $65 dollars on 3 steaks with little meat, 3 sides of cheap fries and fast food onion rings. The bubble tea was fine, never had it before so I can't compare. Waste of time and money. It's ashame because I received a menu for the sushi place next door in my bag and believe they are related. I love Kasumi sushi and was one of the first to give them a five star review. I'll never come back here though.

    2nd half of the jawn. Nickel for reference. Pathetic excuse for a cheesesteak. I want my money back!

    Today was the day. I finally decided to give this place a shot. I should've known something was up when I didn't see a line. The gentleman that took my order was very nice and I even tipped a buck - thinking he would hook my cheesesteak up.. But apparently I was wrong as could be. You gotta be kidding me with the skimpiness of the meat. They have the nerve to charge $10.25 for a version of a cheesesteak that should only cost 6 dollars tops! They're getting two stars instead of one because the place was actually clean and the guy was nice. The drink selection was also OK. I'm expecting a FAT mouthwatering cheesesteak.. one that I can eat half now and eat the other half later. I don't think I've been been this disappointed in weeks. This place should definitely be out of business soon, hopefully the family that runs it, loses ALL of their money because they should not even be in business. This was a YUGE misteak! Take your business elsewhere.. anywhere but here!

    This is a brand new Cheesesteak shop in South Philadelphia where the bread is very soft and the beef is fresh, especially the Penrose burger. The kids and I love it. If the fries could be better, that would be perfect. And milk tea is also great.highly recommend 。

    The only thing that I liked was the roll. I would not return. It tasted like minute steak from the acme.

    This place was packed during happy hour but we were able to snag seats at the bar after happy hour…read moreended - make a reservation! The interior of the restaurant is very cute. We had some oysters, scallops and hamachi crudo, and my friend had the shrimp dumplings which he noted were delicious. The hibiscus spritz was light is refreshing. We will definitely be back to try their seafood tower!

    I think the last time I was at this corner munching on something it was a different place. But, on…read morethe multi-festival Saturday, second of May in the year 2026, I can definitively say that I've now tried the little seafood spot on one of our favorite corners, that we're almost always just passing by to get to Time. First, the friendly, informative service: in an oyster bar with a rotating fresh selection, that's an underrated must. We were seated outside, given a rundown of the menu and "as it's ready" flow of the kitchen. We got a pair of cocktails, the Melonata and a Tequila Julep. I think the Melonata might be my new summer favorite. It looks like Ecto Cooler but doesn't give a distinct feeling of growing diabetes while drinking it. In grown up terms, it was well balanced, not too sour, not too sweet, and deeply herbal, fruity, and refreshing at the same time. The Tequila Julep was a Mint Julep with tequila instead of bourbon. It was good, though it's hard to mess that set of ingredients up. We got a selection of oysters and a shooter. Every oyster was distinct and different. Felt like there were no "different on the menu but same in flavor profile" that you can sometimes run into. This implies it's well curated. I have no idea, because I'm not an expert fishmonger, nor do I know whether that term specifically applies here - case in point. Anyway, I got 2 from Washington State, and another from Cape May. The first WA was large, buttery, and had the satisfying chew of young coconut flesh. Semi sweet. The second was smaller, sharper, and briny as hell - tasted of the ocean. And finally, the Cape May was mild and fresh, a good balance between the two others. It was a perfect little tasting menu that I'd created by just ordering the first three guys off the list. Not sure what selection came with the shooter, but the concoction in the shot glass shooter was bright green and pickly. Glad I got it as a contrast to the classics with what I assumed was red wine vinegar. Besides that, we snacked on salmon avocado toast with the Calabrian Chili Oil. It was also very, very good. Sometimes things are better than the sum of their parts. This is true here, but it's also worth noting that the individual parts - the bread, the smoked salmon, the chili oil, the avocado, the shaved onions - were excellent in their own right. We will be back for sure.
