    Plain pizza and sausage pizza
    Luna B.

    The ordering process was easy and our delicious pizza was made in a half hour we got half sausage half plain. The employees are all very nice and helpful. I can't wait to try other things on the menu

    Al Pastor pizza slice
    Rich T.

    Off the wall mashup of Mexican and pizza but boy, does it work! These pizzas are loaded and are sensational, one slice will totally fill you up. Oh, and the Stromboli is also fantastic. Minimal seating at the restaurant itself, but perfect for to-go or perfect if you could just plop out of the table and consume it there.

    Pizza Mexicana and Pizza Carnitas
    Kristin P.

    Look at this! Looook at it!!!! Is it a pizza taco? Is it a Mexican pizza? The service was excellent (according to NYT the co owner), such nice people! 3 tables for sit down, which we didn't. It's housed in South Philly, I love this food! It is so different and fun!

    Wow!!! The torta is made with fresh bread at the establishment what a huge delicious sandwich. We had a slice of Mexicana pizza and al pastor. The sauce is a little Spicey. Very good.

    Pizza Alpastor Pizza Mexicana
    Carlos M.

    Good place for Mexican-style pizza. Dough and crust was not that remarkable, but we liked the al pastor and the mexicana pizzas. Very affordable prices and the family who run the place is friendly and helpful. I can see why this would appeal to NY Times list-makers, as it is interesting and a good example of what Mexican-style pizza can be. However, I would wager most folks would not have place in their "22 best pizzas in the US" list. A nice and different experience from most pizza places in South Philly, but not really a pizza that I would crave or return to regularly.

    Large special San Lucas pizza $24.85
    Tiffany T.

    From the outside, it doesn't look like much - like your typical South Philly corner store bodega. Honestly, from the inside it is also quite unassuming - but the pizza is excellent. The first visit was well over 6 months to a year ago, but only because I don't live in the area. The first visit we had the Pizza San lucas. Last week we got the Special San Lucas 18" Large pie comes to about $25 with tax. This pizza was soooo good. The crust is thin and crispy. Whatever they marinate the shrimp in is delicious, and the shrimp was legitimately perfectly cooked - very juicy and plump shrimp. You wouldn't think that shrimp, hot sauce, cilantro, pico de gallo or avocado would work on the pizza - but I assure you it does. This is one of my favorite pizzas I've ever had from any pizza shop at all. This would honestly be a 5 star review except for 1 constructive criticism. They leave the shell tail of the shrimp on the pizza, which makes eating the pizza a bit messy to pick each shrimp off to eat, then bite the pizza. I would love if I could just take a huge bite out of the pizza. Outside of that - it's an excellent pizza shop with friendly service.

    Chicken Buffalo with Blue Cheese
    Amanda T.

    Amazing Buffalo Chicken Pizza! Pizza was perfectly crispy. Called for delivery and they said 35 minutes and came exactly in 35 minutes! Will definitely be ordering more pizza from them!

    ranchero pizza
    Aurelia M.

    This spot is like a hole in the wall to me. It's not much from outside nor inside. But for those who know where to get a real Mexican style pizza, this is where they would go instead of you know which. Their al pastor pizza is what a Mexican would dream of! Spicy, lots of toppings, and fresh limes, you could even request slices of avocado, what could be better? Oh I know, their ranchero pizza is just as special. I've tried their chicken buffalo, and bbq chicken pizza, both are also amazing! Their mozzarella cheese fries is so good, especially when it's hot. Delivery time may varies, sometimes it could take longer or faster, but it's worth waiting for. Love this place!

    a cheese pizza

    do not get the plain cheese. it did not taste like a traditional pizza, the sauce was not a regular marinara & the dough was fluffy.

    Do they sell slices or only whole pies?

    I'm almost certain I've seen pies by the windows when I go to pick up my order. I'm not 100% as it's been a while and I'm always in and out.. but I think so..

    Know it's trite but literally the best cheesesteak I've ever had! For a surprising reason however:…read morethe bread! Food: 5. Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes! Eve awards best cheesesteak of my life--still thinking about it Highlights: - The bread: a soft long roll with sesame seeds was a delight I didn't see coming. - Meat: was lightly seasoned but kept its pure flavor. Most cheesesteaks have such bland meat so this did it right - Cheese: melty coopers cheese was perfectly mixed in. - Onions: just the right soloing if grilled onions mixed in to complement the meat but not overwhelm it. - Size: monstrous! You can easily share (but you may not want to). - Fairly efficient: even with long lines, put your phone number in the kiosk, can pay with credit card, and wait til you are texted to pick it up. - For the whole family: my cranky teen son said it's the best thing he ate on our 23 day summer East Coast trip (including lots of great dining spots around Philly and NYC). Lowlights: - Waits can be long and brutal in heat. We got lucky with a shorter line. - No seating: just an ordering counter inside so many are eating out on the sidewalk.

    Will keep this as short as possible…read more -The line will look worse than it actually is. It moves quickly. 70-90 people may only take you 15ish min to place your order. -Just get the cheesesteak, skip their other sandwiches. -The cheesesteak is amazing, it just, is. Some of their other food is not worth it. -Once you order, maybe another 10ish min for the food to come out. Absolutely worth it, been here twice now, and will come back over and over.

    3.5 stars. Sorry,…read moreguys, this is another WAY overdue review from my 2015 visit before the name change from TONY LUKE'S. Took a short day trip to Philadelphia on Sunday, June 14, and had to try for the first time an authentic Philly cheesesteak sandwich. When in Rome, right? My cousin and family took me here, the original location of TONY LUKE'S, a mainstay for cheesesteaks in South Philly. The street-side sandwich shoppe had a a classic, no-frills neighbourhood stand vibe, featuring walk-up windows for counter-service. The dining room was a weather-protected, four-wall area with outdoor picnic tables. Tony Luke's covered a broad array of Old Philly Style Sandwiches from Roast Beef ($7.25 - $10.25) to Roast Pork ($7.00 - $9.00), Chicken Cutlet ($7.25 - $10.25), Rib-eye Steak ($7.75 - $9.75), Chicken Steak ($7.25 - $9.25), Hoagies ($7.25 - $9.00) to Specialty Sandwiches ($6.00 - $8.00). They also offered Side Orders, Fresh Sautéed Vegetables, Breakfast and Beverages. Accustomed to being served Philly cheesesteak sandwiches with provolone, grilled onion and green peppers in California (which I love), I was surprised to learn that the traditional cheesesteak from Philadelphia is composed of only thinly shaved ribeye steak, griddled quickly, chopped, and topped with lots of cheese (Whiz or otherwise) served on a soft, crusty hoagie roll. We ordered a Cheese Steak ($8.75) as well as a Cheese Steak Hoagie ($9.75), both of which were tightly wrapped long rolls in Tony Luke's wax paper. They were OK, neither knocked my socks off, unfortunately. My search for a mind blowing cheesesteak will continue when I return to Philly.

I was in…read moreChester for a football game, but made some time to stop by both of the city's famous Cheesesteak stands. The Original Pat's King of Steaks is located in South Philly, specifically in the Passyunk Square neighborhood. It sits at the intersection of East Passyunk, South 9th, and Wharton. The building has many different signs and lights that will let you know that you are in the correct place. Since this is in the city, parking can be somewhat tricky. There are times I have had to circle around, or get whomever I was with to drop me off and have them come back. However, sometimes I have secured street parking not too far away. This will just depend on the time of day, and really the luck of the draw, if you are able to easily locate parking. This is an outdoor stand, meaning there is no inside to enter. You will order at the counter, and food is packaged to-go. However, there are some tables surrounding the building that you can dine at. They are all under the roof overhang, so you will be somewhat protected from the elements. On this day, it was not terribly busy. I really did not have to wait in any kind of line before being able to place my order. This was around 4:00 on a Saturday in September. First, I took some time to look over the menu posted near the sidewalk. There is also a helpful guide on "how to order a steak," for those that are unfamiliar. When it was my first time here, I actually found the humorous display very helpful. I placed my order for two classic Cheesesteak Wit, made with Cheez Whiz. When ordering, you specify if you want Wit (with onion) or Wit-Out (no onion). Given that I was wanting to try the most authentic sandwich I could, I opted for the onions and the traditional Cheez Whiz. My sandwiches only took a minute or so to be ready. As stated, it was not busy, and they are able to whip up these sandwiches rather quickly. I ended up taking my sandwiches to-go, and having them for meals the next few days. They reheat well, and have good flavor. I like having the onions on it for an added texture. Pricing is not terrible. Pat's is more expensive than Geno's by $2 for the same sandwich. My total was $36 after tax for the two sandwiches, making them $18 each. You definitely are paying for the experience and the novelty that is coming to this famous corner of Philadelphia. But, this price is not out of the ballpark of other places in the area. The sandwich is a decent size, and you can definitely get two meals out of it if you are eating it by yourself. So, all that considering, it is a fair value for what you pay. It seemed like most menu items were $20 or under. FYI, they take both cash and card. The staff are quick and efficient. However, it will not be the most friendly or pleasant experience, especially if you do not know how to order. I am not saying that the experience was poor by any means, but be aware that this is not Disney World and they will not be overly kind to you at the order window. Being from Pittsburgh, I had never had a true Philadelphia Cheesesteak sandwich until a few years ago when I visited for the first time. Since that trip, I typically make it a point to stop and get a few sandwiches to take back home with me. I enjoy coming to Pat's for the atmosphere, and the true taste of Philadelphia. I recommend giving it a try at least once, just to say you have had it. Plus, the sandwiches are pretty tasty, too. I will definitely be back here on future trips to South Philly.
