    Jeniece & JJ gave us some awesome service. I'll come back again because service like this isn't easy to find. The food is great too, famous Philly is solid, I'll have to get a large next time since the regular wasn't enough food. Wonderful kid play area, basketball hoop, playground, cornhole, etc.!

    I have been eating Malik's Philly's Phamous Cheesesteak for years. They never fail to deliver quality cheesesteaks! Always loved the outdoor vibe at the Rose Bush but the inside seating is great. If you have never tried it! It's a big must, a 100% best cheesesteak in Texas!

    This place was recommended to me by a local person for the best Philly Cheesesteak in San Antonio. I took my son to it. He said it was very good and wants to go back on his next visit to town. Although I don't eat cheese, I tasted some of his meat and it was very tasty.

    Malik's Philly & parm herbed fries

    Saw this on SA Live & thought we'd give it a try. So glad we did! I was prepared to be disappointed bc most cheesesteak places don't live up to expectations. But this sandwich was so delicious I can hardly wait to come back & have it again, though there's lots of choices. We ordered the large Malik & the parm herbed fries & both are large enough to split, probably between 3 people, but we were two and stuffed ourselves! The meat is thin sliced/chopped ribeye, soft, juicy, w virtually no fat or gristle on it. It seemed a double portion of meat, mixed w chopped grilled onions & mushrooms. We ordered w/o green peppers, but usually comes with it. Everything is cut the same size so every bite is a mixture of juicy flavors along with white melted American cheese underneath. The roll is toasted w just the right amount of juice from the meat to make it soft but not mushy. The fries? Perfect combination of herbed Parmesan cheese & hot, crispy hand cut potatoes. Plenty of topping...looked like it had snowed on them. Delicious! We've driven by many times, but given my experience w tasteless stringy fatty cheesesteaks in the past, figured this would be the same. No way! This was the real thing! Definitely planning a return trip soon! Everything is prepared to custom order so food is hot, service is great, and plenty of tables to sit at.

    Found this place back in 2015 when I was flipping houses in the area, and they still have the same quality they did back then. Best cheese steaks I've had in San Antonio. Love that they have Philly Cheese fries, for those times I want a Philly and fries but don't know any all the bread. It's definitely a full meal by itself. Despite the fact that they put all the fixings on top of the fries, the fries are always super crisps!

    This place used to be t spot to get fresh and hot cheesesteaks and other goodies. Their fries used to be crispy and well seasoned. This wasn't the case on my last visit. The cheesesteak was good, but the kids meal I got for my little one and the side of fries was not. The fries were full of grease and not crispy at all. The hot dog seemed old and the bun was hard. Very underwhelming for $8 kids meal. The side of fries were similar to the greasy ones pictured below. Just be sure to ask for fresh fries if you stop by. Hopefully it was an off day for them, but it was around opening time on a Sunday and they weren't busy.

    added lettuce, jalapeño, and pickles. Bacon Ranch Cheesesteak.

    This Philly cheesesteak place was really good... but the meat is extremely salty!!! But it was still good just very salty.

    Recently celebrated my 30th birthday here with a twist. I hosted a mini woman's workshop where we did yoga (streamed from YouTube onto the TVs), ate great food catered from Malik's Philly's, guest speaker, and arts and crafts at the end. Booking was easy and was able to reach out at any time with questions. Rob (owner of the Rose Bush) called me a week prior to the event to give me the details I needed to stream the video. Vince (manager at Malik's) was super helpful with the food order and with set-up. I was able to place my order the day before through messenger. They added a door to make the event space even more private from the public. We had our own restroom, plenty of space for decor and drinks, and even a separate table for sweets. This is the place.

I was there early so not too many people. Ambiance was good, not too loud or anything. I also got a Mango Chamoy Slushie which was very good, best I ever had. Actually haven't had one before then. This review is actually for about 3 weeks ago. I'm writing it now since they've earned it.

    How have I forgotten this place?! So happy to revisit after a hiatus, cuz their burgers are…read moredeelish! Easy, casual order up at counter, seat yourself and menu is posted above. They serve a variety of burgers, sandwiches, wings, dogs, desserts, and meals include either a side of tots, fries, cucumbers with chamoy and lucas, or corn in a cup. Other sides are available as well. This trip since we craved for burgers, ordered: Bistro burger- wonderfully seasoned and cooked, served on sourdough, with avocado, grilled onions and mushrooms, mayo. One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas. I appreciate simple veggies. Mexican burger- excellent! Juicy burger with cheese, jalapenos, pico de gallo, bacon and the works. The tater tots had a nice and crispy outer texture as it should. Overall- very good. Tasty, reasonable, clean, and great service. We'll have to make sure to come back sooner!

    An old buddy wanted to meet up for lunch, so I took him down to Smash'd, and it did not disappoint…read more This little Bar & Grill might fly under the radar, but it delivers big flavor. They've got a solid lineup of burgers on the menu, but I was there for one thing, their Philly cheesesteaks. We both ordered the fully loaded version with fajita peppers and a side of crispy tots. The sandwich was stacked, flavorful, and cooked just right, easily one of the better cheesesteaks you'll find around here. If you're looking for great burgers and even better cheesesteaks, Smash'd is absolutely your spot. Friendly service, good portions, and a menu that hits the mark. Highly recommend checking it out.

    I've had this place bookmarked a while. It's on my "best burgers in SAT" list…read more Going in the door, let me just tell you: don't bother parking right across the street. Yeah, okay, it's convenient, but by the time you pay to park (minimum of four hours, which pissed me off) and then have your tiny, overpriced burger...you gonna be mad. Do yourself a favor and fight for street parking. I walked up to the outside counter Saturday night about 7:20. Never been here. The ladies behind the counter obviously could NOT have cared less. No nice welcome...no pleasantries. Nothing said. I spoke first, asking about seating availability inside (it was chilly), and they were rude - looked at me like I was from outer space and said they didn't know. They said they didn't know in that "yeah, good luck with that...it's Saturday at 7, dumbass" kinda way. How could you not know? And if you truly didn't know, which one of them should have gone to check for me. So I went and checked myself. Turns out: plenty of seating. Returned to the chilly duo and placed my order. Ordered the Wake and Bacon burger. I also ordered a Topo Chico, which was also met with a blank "are you from this planet?" stare. How do you not have Topo Chico or something similar !? The burger was just okay. Tiny, but tasty. Fries were so salty and over-seasoned as to be almost inedible. No one checked on me after bringing me my burger. Not one time. The only reason I gave the third star: neat, dog friendly outside area which would be cool for a group outing. Probably not going back.

    NY Gyro King earned a five-star review from me for one very important reason: my kid loved it…read more And that's saying something. He's one of the pickiest eaters you'll ever meet. His usual menu consists of pizza, chicken nuggets, and not much else. Getting him to try something new is usually a challenge. To my surprise, he tried the gyro and actually loved it. Not just a few bites--he genuinely enjoyed it. Any restaurant that can win over a picky eater deserves some recognition. The food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The meat was well-seasoned, the ingredients tasted fresh, and everything came together perfectly. It's the kind of place that's approachable for people who are new to Mediterranean food while still being delicious enough for those who already love it. Great food, great experience, and a rare family dining win. We'll definitely be back for more gyros.

Here it's called a platter and I got it all the way with chicken, lamb, falafel and fries. I found the restaurant and as others have said, it's small, only a couple tables but it was clean and the posted health score was an A. I was the only costumer and I had to wait a bit because I was waiting for my son to tell me what he wanted and because the fellow working got a phone order. Once I ordered, he went right to work cooking our food and it was ready in no time. My car smelled great on the way home and my food looked really good but I noticed the sauce (white only) was mostly on the pita. I had high expectations. I was disappointed. Maybe it's on me for not asking about sauce but, the rice was very dry. My food was okay. I don't think I'll be back.
