Philly Steak &amp; Subs

Been wanting to check out these guys for awhile but could never catch their truck close to me…read more Today I hit it up on my lunch hour and after looking over the menu i went with the classic philly. I havent been to Philadelphia for awhile but this was definitely in the ball park of a legit Cheesesteak and one of the best ive had. Some purists might not say its authentic, but it had the right roll, wit wiz and it was delicious so that works for me. The "Philly" had plenty of meat and wasnt too greasy that would have made it fall apart. Kings is doing a great service to the community by making these available to the triangle so you need to go do your part and eat one right now.

Not my favorite cheese steak and certainly not freshly shaved ribeye, but a nice food truck. When…read morewe questioned the owners about their cheese steak they claimed to be all Philly and more but what we discovered was not all Philly. Sadly the bread of choice was not my favorite amoroso and the whiz was really runny. Now don't get me wrong the sub was still delicious but just not worthy to claim the title authentic. For me to be authentic one must have the right bread, the right thickness of cheese whiz, fresh cut vegetables and the freshly shaved rib eye beef. The problem was none of this was right. Their veggies were canned mushrooms cut peppers and onion. The meat was frozen probably Philly steak or steakums. Finally the sauce was just way off. One could possibly drink the fat off of their sub. Certainly not the best and would only try this again out of desperation.

Place looked spotless (99 sanitation), and smelled awesome (they had just cooked come garlic). Ordered a turkey reuben ($16) for me, and a pastrami reuben ($17) for him. Waited a few minutes and took home a couple warm beauties. My turkey was piled high with thinly sliced turkey breast. Bread was awesome even though not the usual rye. Sauerkraut very good. However, I could not taste the swiss cheese or the honey mustard that were supposed to be on there. I would have actually preferred less meat and more flavor from cheese and mustard. Even more sauerkraut would have helped as the turkey ate dry after awhile. Husband loved the pastrami one. Said it was some of the best pastrami he's ever had and he could taste the grilled onions, the spicy mustard and the cheese on his. Will definitely go back, but would order differently for me.

Over the past 3 weeks, I've noticed a steady decline in service and food quality. Please note I've ordered from here 8-10 times in that span, with dining in 3 times and Door Dashing 5-7 times. I can go back to my receipts but I made this place my go-to. One of the days I walked in to order and the guy flatly told me all subs were toasted when I asked if I could get mine toasted. Seemed a little uncalled for with the tone. The last visit onsite, the presentation from my first time (sub is spread open when served) had gotten worse. The tomatoes were noticeably smaller. My last door dash order from yesterday, I had a blonde hair in my sub. I do not have hair and it wouldn't be blonde, if so. It was mixed in as well. I threw the rest of my sub away. This is actually the second business on this strip I've found hair in my food. I don't complain, I just don't eat there anymore. But the fact I can notice a difference in service and food quality within 3 weeks is INSANE. At this point, I do not recommend this place.

They have a wide variety of sandwiches (hogies, deli style, cheesesteaks, chicken cutlets), along with burger and salad options. We opted for a cheesesteak, deli sandwich, and small salad which was the perfect amount of food for two people. My only word of caution is that the Calabrian Ceasar dressing is quite spicy, so use with caution or pick another if you don't like spicy food. The bread, meat, and toppings were all fresh and brought unique flavors that worked very well together. There was a good amount of seating both inside and outside that was clean and well kept.

And parking is not the easiest, you will likely find yourself in the Harris Teeter garage. But the wait is worth it. As a NJ native and something of a sandwich aficionado, I have a rather discerning taste for a good sub sandwich. So upon a friend's recommendation, I went with the classic Italian. It came with prosciutto, hot capicola, genoa salami, and sharp provolone cheese. Note to everyone: Go for the sharp provolone, not mild! The first thing I want to say about this sub/hoagie is major props for the bread. It was crusty with sesame seeds on the outside, pillow soft inside. About the only thing I would wish is that it was semolina bread. Outside of that, kudos for the bread. Plenty of meat on the sandwich, which is key. I HATE HATE HATE when I order a sub and they give me something like three or four slices of meat. Not gonna name names...but that's not an issue at PH. I really like the grab and go options for various food items like long hot peppers, broccoli rabe, pickle chips, and dirt pudding. Excellent addition. I'm taking a star off since they only offer bottled drinks, you can't get free refills. No brewed iced tea, that's only available in bottles too. I'll at least forgive them for having Pepsi products since that's a Philly tradition. I'll definitely return to try their Italian tuna, chicken cutlet, and roast pork options.

They are very friendly and work hard to get your order exactly right. My favorite sub is I think #14 the Jersey Devil. It has soooo much meat. The first one I took home I weight it and it was 3lbs. If you go to Subway you are lucky if your sub is half a pound and pretty much costs the same. There is a photo of one on the scale topping out at 2lbs10oz. The subs are so big I always have them quarter them for me and they pretty much make four meals. The most epic thing I did once was order one for a motorcycle trip then I rode straight to the top of Mt. Mitchell where I enjoyed one of these subs. My only beef I have with them...they have a loyalty program. I always get the Jersey Devil which is one of the most expensive subs at $17 (was $13 when they first opened). This is not a problem because it's so much food. So I was in there and went to redeem my free sub and I had my kids and they usually get a small ham sub or a turkey sub which is about $8. I checked out and went on my way but didn't notice until I got home that they redeemed my free sub for $8 instead of the big one!!! Of all the places Ive ever been with loyalty programs they always give you the most expensive one for free....I guess here you have to make a separate order to do that. Felt like my loyalty got taken advantage of. Lesson learned.
