Decided to try the new local cheesesteak spot in Manteca, and I'm glad to see a new business open with a simple but unique menu. The restaurant was very clean when we walked in, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We placed our order and noticed it's a bit on the pricey side--$14.95 for The Philly, plus an additional $5 more to add fries and a drink. The food came out quickly. The fries were okay but could've used a little more seasoning. Drink options are limited to canned soda, and they didn't have Dr Pepper or Pepsi, so I had to go with a Mountain Dew. The sandwich itself was filling--I didn't add extra meat and didn't feel like I needed to. While it's not a traditional Philly cheesesteak, it's still a good sandwich overall. What stood out was customers were clearly enjoying their meals. I overheard people thanking the cooks, finishing everything, and saying they'd be back as they left. Overall, I'll definitely return and wish this new business much success. read more

Rocky’s Cheesesteaks - The Philly combo - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Manteca, California

First off, I don't understand the low stars and the issue with the price. I got double meat, mush and jalapeño, w/ fries and it was more than enough. If you're trying to have dinner here with a family of 3 it's going to be $50, aka sit down restaurant price per person, and you know why? Because you're getting RIB-EYE-STEAK not ground 70/30 beef. Your expectations should be flavor and quality; not quantity and value. That's fast food and this not that in the slightest. I LOVED the flavor and the texture, and how they mixed the cheese into the sandwich like a NY style chop cheese but with thin steak. It was marinated, cooked to char, juicy, jalapeños were pickled not fresh which I enjoy more, and mush also had charr, and I had ZERO gristle. Honestly I spent $30 on the meal, because of the double meat, but I shouldn't have come here looking to load up on expensive protein/calories (maybe that's the issue people have). I only did it because of these reviews of "not enough" and that was not true at all! If I got half of what I ordered I'd be happy. Staff is about 3 people and they were quick to get my order in. Said 15 minutes while I can clearly see 3 orders being made from online. NO CALL ORDER, ONLY IN PERSON OR ONLINE. Tried calling, but they directed me to online which is fine I just came in. I was hoping to walk in and get a whiff of the food, but it honestly smelled like they cleaned and sanitized the seating area, cool! But wish I could smell the kitchen, personal brownie points for restaurants that smell like a restaurant not an Ecosure wet dream. Anyways I think if you find yourself needing a change of pace and wanting something that isn't chicken, or a car wash, you really need to check this spot out. I might have it once a week as my out fam meal until my next diamond in the rough. But you get more than you pay for in the taste, and excellence. read more

I thought to myself, NICE, a cheesesteak shop in Manteca It could be that I'm spoiled on really good cheesesteaks, or it could be I grew up in a time where shops didn't nickel and dime people. I want to support local businesses, but I also want value for my money and a good product. Rocky's barely offered one. Let me start by saying the flavor was not mind blowing, it was just meh IMHO. Now for the bad news....the "basic" cheesesteak is about 13 bucks, meat, cheese, onions, bread. Now the "Philly" has red and green bell peppers...for 2 bucks more. Basically a sprinkle bell peppers....last time I checked, I could get a whole red and a whole green bell pepper for less than a buck at the market. Ok.....so maybe theirs are "special" bell peppers. The crazy part...they charge to add bell peppers for 2.50. Speaking of 2.50....apparently mushrooms are magic too, for 2.50. Now here's some real mental gymnastics and math that don't math....my wife ordered the mushrooms and jalapeño cheesesteak.....she asked to have no jalapeños. (15.00), instead of offering to just sub more mushrooms in place of the jalapeños, the counter person changes her order to the original, cheesesteak then adds mushrooms for 2.50. Effectively charging us .50 more than the one she ordered. Now for even more fkry...you can make it a combo for an extra 5.50. This gets you a can of soda and fries. Look at the amount of fries you get with this "combo"... My honest opinion of this place, they could do better, and not overcharge for vegetables. Just incorporate the cost into the final sandwich, but do it fair. If they don't nickel and dime so much, A soda fountain would probably be better than cans. It was barely enough to wash down a sandwich. Also presentation could be better. Check it out for yourself, but I would say pass, unless they do better. read more

Located in the same shopping center as Home Depot and In-N-Out, it's around the back where Chucks used to be and is next-door to Chocolate Bash. We were on the run but saw that they were open. Stopped in and staff very friendly. Had already eaten and got chicken strips and fries for the babes. Seemed like Sysco chicken tenders, basic and the babes was happy. Will have to return to try their cheesesteak. Friendly staff and seems like it might be part of a restaurant chain. read more

Finally, there is a new restaurant in Manteca serving Philly cheesesteaks! We chose the #1 with jalapenos and white cheese and the #2 with white cheese. I love the bread; it's toasted, soft, and fresh! The meat could use a lot more flavor in my opinion. They use an okay amount of meat and onions. Fries are not significantly special, but they are good with the sandwiches. Paid $37 for two sandwiches, one being a combo. The service is friendly and fast. We are happy to support a new business. Good food and atmosphere. read more

Super disappointing. The meat an onions had a sweetness to them, almost like something g with teriyaki sauce was cooked on the same flat top and not cleaned before making this sandwich. For $14, there wasn't much meat. Overall the meat and onions lacked seasoning. Is it too much to ask for the meat to be seasoned with SOME salt? Maybe so black pepper? Cheese wasn't melted and a slice might have been missing. read more

Solid 4 stars! The Philly Cheesesteak was juicy and full of flavor. The meat is ribeye along with great American cheese with onions and bell pepper. The bread was sturdy enough to support the meat and veggies without be tough to eat. The fries were hot, crispy and well seasoned. Can soda and bottle water for drink options. Staff were friendly, food was ready in about 5 minutes and the restaurant is clean. Not a huge place but nicely done. I'd say it's a bit on the pricey side especially for the can soda, but the sandwich was large enough for my wife and I to share for lunch and we both walked away full and happy. They also have smash burgers, loaded fries, other options. It's a nice addition to the food options here in Manteca and we will definitely be back for more food!! read more

Rocky’s Cheesesteaks - "Philly" cheesesteak w/ fries - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Manteca, California

Really had high hopes. This is not your typical cheesesteak, it is very sweet and very little meat. Bread and cheese are good and the people are nice. But over priced for what you get and seasoned too sweet. It's got a teriyaki taste. read more

Rocky’s Cheesesteaks - Original Philly - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Manteca, California

I've been eyeing this place each time I shop at Home Depot. Finally I spotted the OPEN sign. Nice, clean place with three Filipina workers. So, I jokingly ordered The Philly-pina with white cheese and fries. From the fridge, I picked up a Lipton Ice Tea. Order came quickly, all hot with nicely toasted bread. The sandwich tasted like a good Philly should taste. Melty cheese, nicely seared meat and peppers. Fries were crispy too. read more

1 and done type of place. Not even close to a cheesesteak. Expensive, soda by the can, got like 12 fries and a very small sandwich. Wish they had The cheesesteak shop around. That's delicious read more

Wow! The Philly Cheesesteaks are worth having weekly. The ribeye meat makes this Philly jump to the top of my list. I've tried all the combos and found the #3 with mushrooms, white cheese, and jalapeños to be my favorite. The meal is enough to share with a friend or partner. The service is always welcoming and friendly. Nice quiet place to just relax and enjoy a meal. read more

Don't be fooled by the name. There isn't anything about this that is related to a cheesesteak sandwich. The flavor was very sweet and way to salty. It is one of the few sandwiches that I couldn't finish because it was so bad. $28.00 for two "Original Phillys" that were basically inedible, extra greasy and no fries...you be the judge. As for me I'll never go back read more

Place is new and very clean. Service was fast; my togo order was ready in less than 10 minutes. For the sandwhiches I feel like its too much bread and a lil skimpy on the meat. Flavor is decent, I think its cooked with like a teriyaki sauce and gives a island vibe, the cheese they use is yellow. This isnt like a traditionally philly hoagie with provolone cheese but like a teriyaki sammich. Give it a try and share what you think. read more

The staff was super friendly but the menu was not accurate and cheesesteak was really greasy. The don't have burgers anymore but maybe that will change in time. read more

I ordered the Philly CS. I would have totally enjoyed it, the meat has a sweet taste to it that I didn't care for on a Philly steak. It was as if they use Korean BBQ marinade. The sandwich was a bit oily as well. read more

We ordered for a staff of 9. Walked in right as they opened and was welcomed by the nicest person. She made sure that all the names were on each cheesesteak and was packed and ready when she said. Everyone's Cheesesteak was exactly as they wanted. The steak was perfect and not fatty at all. Everyone in the office was very happy. Please note that they are big enough to share. We will be going back! read more

I think the cheesesteaks are delicious! The bread is amazing! It's like a banh mi/ French bread and it holds up the sandwich and all the juices incredibly! The best cheesesteak bread I've had! I got the mushroom & jalapeño both times and it was great!! I will be back tomorrow! Lol read more

My husband decided to try a Philly today. The freshest bread and the flavor of the meat was very delicious, hint of Teriyaki, I'm not really sure. So, so good! French fries tasted fresh and delicious too! Ice machine would be a great addition. We will be back!! read more

Overpriced for Philly cheese steak, more sautéed onion than meat. Fries do not come with overpriced sandwich. I recommend shooters much better read more

Delicious Philly cheesesteak! Full of flavor! Fresh ingredients! Definitely will come again. read more

Bread was 10/10. What meat I did get was cooked well. Never have I ever had a teriyaki cheesesteak. No part of this sandwich made me think I was eating a cheesesteak. If you want a teriyaki sandwich though this may be your jam. read more

Rocky’s Cheesesteaks - Bread? 10/10. Otherwise blah. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Manteca, California

Disappointed - food was ok but overpriced for what we received. It would help if they had napkin dispensers on the tables. They could also add salt and pepper along with ketchup and mustard. read more

I was looking forward to them opening as I love me some cheese steak sandwiches. It's kind of a pain to have to go to Stockton or Tracy to get a good cheese steak. Man.... I was so damn disappointed when I sunk my teeth into their "The Original." The service was great and the place is clean, but W T F was up with this so-called cheese steak???? Friggin' teriyaki sauce???? American cheese???? Extra $$$ for peppers and onions???? The roll they used was actually good. The fries were just fries. I didn't take more than 3 bites, ate the fries and downed my canned soda. I asked the nice lady if they could make the cheesestake without the sauce and she said, "yes." I also asked if they had white cheddar and she again said, "yes". So I am going to give Rocky's one more chance . And I'm going to pay the extra for peppers and onions, which I'm not too happy about. So let's see what happens. read more

The food here is worth trying. The meat here is a lot juicier than some of the other cheesesteak places. The place doesn't have much decor, but they just opened. The cashier was friendly. I'd say it is worth the price, although being 12.95 for a regular cheesesteak. Will come back. read more

Nice staff, good service, ok food. The meat taste good but there was not enough of it! Told much bread and toppings!!!

I have eaten here every other day since they opened. The Jalapeño mushroom cheesesteak is my favorite. Very flavorful. read more

If you're considering eating here, let me save you the trouble and money, DON'T. In a word, "disgusting!" 1st, total chaos from the front to the kitchen and the answer to every question is, "I don't know." 2nd and the most importantly, the food.......the sandwiches were packed full with meat, onions, bell peppers, cheese, all saturated in dirty grease. We added bacon to ours and it was cooked beyond charred @ $3 extra x's 2. Fries are $5/order and they just sprinkled less than a handful off to the side of the sandwich, in the same container. Total cost for this traveshamockery, $50. Needless to say, it was a very disappointing experience. Don't waste your money. read more

Not sure why this place is called "cheesesteaks" not even close to a cheesesteak sandwich...was not worth the price at all! On top of it we pointed out a cockroach to one of the staff and they shrugged at us...nasty!! read more

The way they make it wasn't even close to a real cheese sandwich disappointing I think they used krafts single for cheese
