    The works philly

    I love this place! They have the best phillys around! Their chicken nuggets are amazing as well. The fries are on point! the ambiance reminds me of a little tiny diner. Staff is always very friendly to us and my kids love their food too.

    Philly corner is a little hole in the wall near my work. Very friendly staff and service is very quick. Phillys are my one of my favorite food of all time. I heard this place had the best in Charlotte. The Philly was tremendously good. Not the best I have ever had but one of my favorites in a while. I got the original because I wanted to be authentic to the place. Meat was very well seasoned, cheese was melted on the bottom of the meat pile, the bread was soggy on top and hard on the bottom just how I love it. Adding mayo and melted cheese on top would have been a 10. Fantastic overall first time experience. Can't wait to try the other ones for lunch! Thank you

    "The Original"

    I really love this "mom&pop" restaurant. I have always been greeted and the staff goes over and beyond to make sure their customers are happy. The food is really good I could and have ate here every week. They recently changed their hours which makes it difficult for me to make it their prior to closing but I try myself to make it on Saturdays. Please forgive my pictures they were an afterthought..

    My mom said she passed by this place plenty of times but haven't stopped in yet. So we finally did while I'm visiting home. It doesn't look like much when you pull up but the inside is basic with an ice cream counter inside. And the flavor of the hoagies make up for the appearance if that doesn't draw you in. Oh and we got some nice hot fries, so that mos def was a win!!! So go ahead and stop in for some locally made hoagies!

    This was my first time here. I pass it all the time. The service was great and both guys greeted me when I walked in. That's major points in my ! I didn't go to the bathroom but the restaurant was clean. The 1st time I have went to get a filling stake and did not have to ask for steak sauce. I'm not sure what they add to their seasoning or what they cooked with but it was literally perfect and extremely The only thing I'm upset about is that I didn't stop here sooner.

    Cheese steak  The Original

    The service was fine. The cheesesteak was mid. They failed to drain the grease prior to putting it on a cold bun so my sandwich was wet and soggy

    Special menu by register on Monday

    New to this area and have driven by several times. Very impressed with the food and especially the customer service. Ordered a "build your own" chicken cheesesteak. Veggies were fresh and piled on. Grilled onions perfectly caramelized. Chicken and cheese delicious. Atmosphere gives off a fun diner vibes. Staff was extremely nice and they seemed to know everyone who came in the door while I dined in. Service was also very quick (took about 5 minutes from placing the order to getting my food) Only thing I wish is that the bread for the sandwiches was toasted or heated, but that's just a preference.

    A1 customer service! A1 subs that taste just like up north! It's amazing to have a place that tastes like home. It's hard to find good food places in Charlotte let alone experience good service. I will definitely be back & also spread the love to others! I ordered the works the fries were dry & poorly seasoned though. I think they gave us different ones than other reviews I see.

    Very original inside

    Had "The Works" Cheesesteak (no pizza sauce) tonight and it was fantastic! Best in the area so far. I will be back.

    Not bad, but ingredients are not the best quality. Lenny's down the road is a much better cheesesteak.

    We also tried the chicken tenders and fries and finished off with their funnel fries for dessert...

    We were in the area and decided to have Big Dave's for lunch…read more The space is small, but they have a few tables inside that you can sit and enjoy your meal if you choose. You walk up to the counter and place your order, we were the only ones there at the time so ordering was fairly quick. The young lady that took our order was polite and patient with us while we decided what we were going to order. I ordered the steak cheesesteak Dave's way with no onions, and added mayo, lettuce and tomatoe. They have a few items listed for dessert, but we were told that they were out of the banana pudding at the time. Our food was cooked to order and was piping hot when we received it. They placed my lettuce and tomatoes in a separate container which I'm grateful they did, because the lettuce was old and had a brownish tint to it. The cheesesteak was cheesy and really good. As I was eating I just noticed how dirty the place seemed. Although the staff were nice on their downtime every one was on their phone. I think they could have used that time to clean off the sticky tables, swept and mopped the floor etc. Everything just looked a bit dirty. Service was decent and fast, the food was freshly prepared and tasted great. Sanitation was a 96, not great but not bad either. If they could clean this place up and keep up with it, I could see myself coming back more often. Happy my bestie brought me by to give it a try!

    Just a joint in a shopping mall. Limited seating. Friendly staff that explains the menu to everyone…read moreordering. The Philly steak sandwich is what you get! Chopped steak on a bun with 3 cheeses and mushrooms. You can get chicken or salmon if you are adventurous. I had the Classic and it was tasty and filling. Very messy, so don't take her there for your first date. Not a daily sandwich shop type place. Excellent fries, but eat them fast. I will be back. Worth a try when you want something a little different.
