Decent at best, the place wasn't the cleanest food was ok I've had better haven't craved to go back

I have been on a poutine fix for at least a couple of months. I am normally not a devoted fries gal. However, if you give me poutine done right, I will devour the fries and everything else in it. I bought a Groupon to dine at this Philthy Philly's eatery a while ago. I had passed by this location in the past, as my favourite Starbucks in Whitby is in this plaza. On Saturday, I drove over here. It was a soggy, rainy day, but it did not deter me from dropping by. I walked in. There were two construction workers in front of me. They were so sweet to let me order first. I said that I needed some time to look at the vast menu and let them take their time to order first. The man handling the cash and the food was polite and helpful. I had $20 to use. I went with the regular Philly cheesesteak and a regular breakfast poutine. I made a mistake with the latter and went a size up than I usually get. I normally do the Phil size, which is the small. When you order a cheeesteak and poutine, you get a drink for free. Nice! After all the dust had settled, I paid $3.14. First, it's nice paying pi. Second, the receipt had blue ink. It was different and cool. I got my cup and filled it up with Diet Coke at the beverage area. I liked the fork dispenser next to it and got a ton of napkins. I knew that I'd need them. I secured a comfy booth and watched TV. Roughly ten minutes later, my food was ready. My Philly cheesesteak had mushrooms, sauteed onions, green peppers, lettuce, and tomatoes. I asked whether the asian BBQ sauce had a strong ginger flavour. The man let me sample it. Awesome! It was perfect and I asked him to put it on my sandwich. My regular breakfast poutine looked amazing. It had two fried eggs, cheesesteak, and bacon. They were all in there with the cheese curds and gravy. I was so excited. I love the cheesesteaks here. It throws me back to visiting Philadelphia. My sandwich was perfect. The bread was perfectly toasted, but it was still soft and yummy. The beef in my cheesesteak was done right. I loved all the veggies and I'm so glad that I went with the asian BBQ sauce. The sandwich was delicious. The breakfast poutine was amazing. I didn't finish it all in one sitting and had the rest of it to take home. I normally don't like my eggs with runny yokes. However, when it mixes in with the gravy and cheese curds, it is a non-issue. I loved the cheesesteak and bacon mixed in with the poutine. It is so over-the-top good! The bacon isn't crispy, which is perfect for me. If you don't like bacon with body, you may want to pass on this one. Otherwise, I could eat the breakfast poutine as a meal. The place is clean. The women's washroom is also clean and maintained extremely well. The only complaint I have is walking around the restaurant. My shoes made that sticky noise whenever I lifted each foot off the floor. Other than that, I love this place. The food is tasty. Staff are courteous and hard-working. There was a steady stream of customers when I dined there. I'd come back in a heartbeat to experience another carb overload. (119) read more

They had a national poutine day special for $5. I was worried that regular size would be too small and not enough for me. Mm, boy I was wrong! It was a big portion for the regular size. I had to share with 2 other people but it depends on how much you eat! They have tons of options from different types of poutine, sandwiches, burgers and more! Less than $10 so it's affordable :) you should try it when you get a chance. read more

I'm glad I was able to give this location another five star review! I ordered through skipthedishes, the food came quickly and was fresh. I decided to try out one of their burgers for the first time and I was amazed at the size of this thing. I would recommend the south west sauce on one of their burgers. I also got my favourite feta fries and they were crispy and savoury. Just a warning their sizes go very LARGE my fiancé got a filthy poutine and it will definitely last a couple of meals. Shout out to all the hard workers and restaurants who remain open during the pandemic. read more

Finally you can get a good Philly steak in Oshawa/Whitby! I grew up in the Niagara region where they have fantastic Philly steaks, called 'Steak Subs' in the area. Haven't been able to find anything close to those great steak subs for years, but now Philthy Philly's is here! Philthy's seems to understand what makes a good Philly steak. You go in, put in your order, they immediately ask you what cheese you want, what items you want fried (for me, onions, hot peppers, mushrooms), additional toppings and they offer the true 12" sub sandwich size, which practically no one does these days. Cooked exactly the way you want it, Philthy's makes a great Philly steak! While their Philly steak may not be as good as what I grew up with in the Niagara region, it is by far the best Philly steak in Durham. read more

Just an awesome place to get a good meal.From the chilli cheese fries to the sandwiches and burgers I could find something I didn't like. Try it you won't regret it read more

The food and customer service is amazing. I really like the onion rings and there are so many options to choose from. I'd recommend coming here. read more

Food was amazing fresh bun and toppings. Service was very polite and accommodating, asked how the first few bites were. Nice quiet place good music in the background. read more

It's been a while since I've been here. I haven't come back because of the prices, but recently I was on a "stay-cation" so I decided to have lunch out while home. So I decided to go back here. Have to admit, the fries here are excellent- good gravy too. That made me happy. However, the cheesesteak I had didn't. The sandwich was made with a. Crumble type of beef. It didn't resemble steak at all. It was bland and honestly I couldn't taste it. I could taste the bun, the onion, pickles, cheese but I had to double check to see if there was actually any steak on it. The sandwich was served almost open face to me, a philly needs to be wrapped to hold everything in and sure enough the bun that got soggy way to fast started to have all the toppings drop out the sides and all over the table. Honestly... the fries were that good that I gave this place a 3 - but for a steak sandwich.... i'm sure there are other places that would service you a better one. read more

This is the first place that I've had a Philly cheesestake outside of Philly. It's made to order, and offers a variety options. The rolls that are used for the cheesestakes leave a lot to be desired, but all in all they don't detract from it but they don't add to it either. For a pro tip - all the way from Philly - stay away from the cheese whiz it just adds too much to the the cheesestake ironically. They also do poutines which I've heard are also really good but don't take word for it. Also getting mayo on it really adds to the experience. All in all it offers a respectable cheesestake with sufficient options to have you return more than once. read more

Got a Groupon deal to try this place out. The place was nice and clean and the service was good. We got the classic cheesesteak and a poutine. Sandwich was good, just the right amount of meat and cheese but I think the bun would be better if it was steamed or toasted just a little bit more but that's personal preference. Poutine was great, lots of gravy and cheese curds all throughout - not just thrown on top like most other places. Price point was pretty good for the amount of food you get so I wouldn't even mind paying full price. read more

Between two adults and two children we ordered the Phil meal: 6" original Philly cheesesteak (chicken), Phil sized fries and 24 oz fountain drink for $9.99 and also ordered an 8" original Philly cheesesteak (steak, different toppings) with regular size poutine. The size was definitely big enough to share. Both the steak and chicken were really tender, buns were warm and soft, great selection of cheeses and sauces for the sandwiches. Also includes mushroom, onion, green peppers, banana peppers, jalapenos. The kids actually ate quite a bit of the sandwiches and liked the chunky fries. Fries were good and I was glad the cheese was a bit melted and warm in the poutine. Restaurant and washrooms were fairly clean, friendly staff, about 5 booths and seating for another 10. read more

We had a large poutine and a Greek sub (small) which came to 20.00 The poutine was enough for 2 or more people and the sandwich was small but a fair amount of chicken. Feta cheese,mushrooms sautéed onions read more

Didn't feel like cooking on a Friday night so we decided to try out Philthys. The restaurant is located at Thickson and Taunton on the north west corner across from the Metro Plaza. The restaurant is bright and open with about 10 tables for dinner in. There was a few person long line but it gave us time to check out the menu. We both ended up ordering poutine, peppersteak poutine for him and the cheesesteak poutine for me. The guy at the cash was super friendly, my fiancee had a question and he didn't hesitate with the answer. I asked about delivery (Yelp asked me) and he told me that they do delivery, but only in the L1R postal code area as poutine doesn't travel as well as the cheesesteaks do. We paid and then waited by the counter for our food as the tables were filling up and not long after, our order was ready and we were out the door! They pack the poutine open top in the bag and it kept everything good, not soggy from steam or anything. I got a few bites into mine before realizing it was the wrong poutine. My fiancée was sure his was right as there was clearly a peppercorn sauce on his. Mine should have had cheesesteak and onions (Cheese Steak Poutine) but instead it had cheesesteak, bacon and peameal bacon (Bacon Cheese Steak). Best. Mistake. Ever. My fiancée and I both loved the poutine I got. Bacon is amazing, so not a surprise, but it was fantastic. Both of us said we would order it again for sure. I did try his and it was very good. I definitely wanted the onions he had on his poutine on mine, that would have thrown mine over the edge of deliciousness. Bacon, steak and onion would be great together on a poutine... Anyways the gravy is great, not to thick and not too thin. The fries are handcut with skin on the ends and fried to a golden brown. I think I could eat those fries alone all day. The peameal was nicely cooked, not too chewy and regular bacon was delicious! Not skimpy with the cheese curds at all (poutine sacrilege) and the cheese was nicely melted and stringy under all those toppings. Overall, great visit to Philthys. They did get my order wrong, but what I got instead was absolutely delicious so I'm confident that whatever we try next will be just as great. Service was friendly and fast, you can't ask for more than that! Dinner for the two of us was around $20 and the portions were very generous even for the regular size! read more

Finally decided to try this place out and see how "authentic" they really were. Nice clean place... no odd smells which is a good thing... ordered and Philly cheese steak that was "phil" sized so only about 6 inches... with sauteed onion, peppers mushrooms and American cheese... no cheese wiz option as a Philly cheese steak should have...with a poutine... Got my food and noticed a few things off the bat... bread wasn't as thick as it should have been. Nor was it crusty at all. Tasty.. but not crusty... realized 2 bites in I got regular cheese rather then the American as I had asked. Overall, sandwich was passable... not truly "authentic" but a passable option. Poutine on the otherhand was the downfall of this meal. Fries were food truck inspired... but in general not good... gravy was really runny and passed over the top of the fries and cheese curd and settled on the bottom... that leads to still cold cheese curds on top with a coating of now cold gravy and soggy fries... finished maybe 1/3 of the fries before I threw in the towel. Passable over all but stick to the sandwiches here... and review your food to make sure you get the right stuff. read more

My boyfriend and I went to Philthy Phillys for the first time last night, and it was amazing. I got a philly cheese steak and he got the peppercorn steak sandwich and we shared the buffalo chicken poutine. The sandwiches were tasty and very filling. He ate his and I ate half of mine and we were full. But we still had the poutine so we tried our hardest to eat it, but it was like the size of my head. Good food for your money, big servings. Staff were very friendly and it wasn't too long of a wait! read more

When you read the name, "Philthy Philly's" your mind begins to race as to what to expect... Is this going to be a wonderful cheese filled Utopia where anything is possible? is it going to be reminiscent of that what it would be like to go to Philly? do they practice basic food handling health guides? is it going to stir up painful childhood memories of your truck driving Uncle Phil? I can tell you this place evokes feelings you did not know you possessed and its best you experience it for yourself. I have prepared a quick guide to get the most out of your experience; Step 1: Go though your contacts and select your closest friends, the ones who can provide you emotional support and help you through anything. You are going to need them. Step 2; Consider revising your will and settling all outstanding debts. Perhaps call your parents while you are at it. Step 3: Fast for at least 8 hours before you go here and make sure to allocate some time to meditate. Only the pure of body and mind will make it. Step 4: As you leave your office desk and prepare to embark on this journey you will need to do some stretches to prepare yourself for the onslaught of meat and cheese your frail body is about to receive. Step 5: Order anything on the menu however I explicitly recommend the Filthy sized poutines. You will understand why. Step 5: Transcend to immortality. Pro-Tip: If you are getting food to go, rent a 1/2 Tonne pickup from your nearest heavy equipment rental, your Toyota Camry doesn't have the torque to transport both you and the metric tonne of cheese curds and potatoes you now possess. read more

I absolutely love the poutines here, I always think I can finish off a medium just to be proven absolutely wrong. Not the biggest fan of the sandwich I had, but I can't say I wouldn't give them another chance since their poutines are so fantastic! read more

Finally, I've found it. What have I found you might be asking? Only the PHILTHIEST poutines on the got dam planet. I ordered the cheeseburger poutine(philthy size), it had real cheese curds, great quality meat, customizable toppings which include fresh vegetables and a multitude of fantastic sauces. Not only was this poutine delicious but it was enormous! Honestly this poutine must have weighed more than a newborn. So if you ever want a big ol' dirty poutine, let me PHIL you in on a little secret... Philthy Philly's the place to go. read more

So good. The food is really amazing. Had the Souvlaki, was a really generous size for the small one. The fries are fresh and absolutely some of the best I've had. The poutine is next on my list to try. The people are also very very nice. So genuinely helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back! read more

Their poutines are great for the quantity, straight forward gravy and sauce. Great customer service. The sandwiches are ok, I'm not a big fan of BBQ sauce on my cheesesteaks so it was kind of a surprise (maybe next time I'll ask for no sauce). read more

I went there at 11:30 am. I Had a regular poutine and more than half of the fries were undercooked. Hoping not to get sick.

Love the portions and the staff are always friendly! No shortage of toppings here! I'll always come back to philtys Whitby!

I Love this place. the food is great and fresh. it takes a bit to cook but well worth the wait. The portion sizes are huge and the prices are good. I have only been to the Whitby location and I am now a regular. read more

I just got back from Philadelphia. I had a Dalessandros cheese steak and craved another. Who knew I could get one just like in Philly close to home? The bun was just right and the steak was moist and juicy. Awesome! read more

Amazing poutine and pulled pork sandwiches, and with so many options! So happy I tried this place out and now my family and I can't stop coming back for more! The portions are huge! read more

This is definitely the worst steakhouse I have been to, I ordered a 6 inch steak sandwich with a poutine on the side. Very disappointing, the manager or whoever is making the food at the back looks very unsanitary as he does not use gloves or anything to cook the food. Safe to say I will not be going back here ever again. read more

Fantastic steak sandwiches. Pulled pork is awesome. Onion rings are great. Still have to try the poutine. Will definitely be back.
