    YUM! This is a great spot for steaks. Don't want a 2 foot stomach bomb but want a QUALITY steak? Come here! Perfect size, high quality, and simply delicious. There are many types of steak to choose from and seasoning so you're able to find the perfect taste for you. Ordering is easy at screens at the front and even when busy you get food quick, staff has always been friendly as well. Quick stop in vibe with limited seating but there are some spots when it's not as busy. Limited beverage options is my only complaint, they just had coke when I went. Would recommend!

    I found this place thanks to Yelp reviews, and they absolutely did not disappoint. When I first walked into the shop, the staff was busy preparing a large corporate order and didn't notice me right away. Rather than waiting around, I was able to place my order easily through the kiosk and settled in to wait. What really stood out was the customer service. The manager noticed the delay, kindly apologized, and even offered me a drink and chips while I waited. That level of hospitality goes a long way and left a great impression. I ordered the Philly Special along with the Hot Honey chips, and both were delicious. The sandwich hit the spot, and the chips were a perfect addition. Yum! Sometimes it's not just the food that makes a place memorable, it's how you're treated. The team handled a busy moment with professionalism and kindness, and because of that, I left happy and impressed. I'll gladly be back the next time I'm in Philadelphia. Another visit definitely awaits!

    Easy...repeat EASY 5-start sandwich. In from out of town and based on research, a first-hand interview (shout out Uber driver) and proximity to my hotel, I landed on Shay's. Very glad I did. I had the The Classic ($19.95: Prime Rib, Cooper Sharp Cheese, Buttery Steakhouse Seasoning, Sautéed Onions). Great seeded roll, perfectly melted cheese, and grilled onions. Service was great. Went to the shop off-hours / around 2:30 on a Friday. Probably 10 people there, so my steak was served up quickly- maybe 5 minutes max from order to handoff. The staff was helpful and patient walking through a rookie on what to order. The shop is un-assuming. Not tons of signage, not a lot of quirky decor on the walls. I visited on one of the first very hot days of the spring. I decided to get the sandwich to go and devoured it at my hotel. Best Cheesesteak is a hot topic in this town. No real point in trying to say one's the best but some food for thought from an out-of-towner: 1) Research. Ask around. Listen to the passion with which they offer their recco. 2) Highly consider Shay's. I really enjoyed the Cheesesteak and the entire experience.

    This Philly phavorite sells incredible classic cheese steaks. The sesame seed soft roll holds up to the chopped prime rib, onions and wet cooper sharp cheese. This sammy is drippy, hot and packed with flavor. Pair it with a big bag of Utz chips and a soda, but preferably a beer which they don't sell. This meal holds up against the other spots that claim top billing in Philly. The owner is opening two more locations in Vegas. That's a good gamble to succeed.

    Ordered a classic Philly cheesesteak to share with a friend. We were not very hungry, and the portion size was just right for sharing. The fries smelled so good that we ended up ordering them afterward -- great seasoning and definitely worth it. A piece of buffalo chicken sandwich was offered for free (it seemed like every table received one), which was a nice touch. That said, I still preferred the beef cheesesteak. The restaurant has around 10 tables, which is pretty good for a cheesesteak spot, though finding a seat during rush hours can be a bit challenging.

    YESS!!!! What a tasty cheese steak!! The establishment is fast food style with space to sit and enjoy your meal. The owner stopped by to ask us how everything was, he was very friendly and shared with us the story of his business, he just opened it within the last year or so (don't quote me) and I was thoroughly impressed! The cheesesteak was SO GOOD. OH MY GOODNESS. Super tasty, hot and fresh off the grill. The cheese and meat truly just melt in your mouth, the bread was perfect. Everything about this cheesesteak was amazing. It was seasoned and cooked to perfection. A quality cheesesteak! I love that the menu has options for what kind of meat you want as well. I'm not a fan of mystery meat and fake cheese and here you feel like you're getting quality ingredients and a quality meal. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Philly! A must try!

    If you're in the area this is a good option! I grew up here, so I don't have to eat cheesesteaks ever again and I would be great. My bf on the other hand wants to try everyplace in the city. We had chicken cheesesteaks and it was good to me. They forget the extra add ons we ordered. But this place is a madhouse and the people at the register don't seem to have it together always. They gave me my order without 2/4 of the four sandwiches I ordered. Fries were, meh! Limited seating, long lines, order from a kiosk. Loud and exciting as you wait for food.

    Great quick service and a casual vibe. I am in Philly for a conference and just had to try a highly-rated cheesesteak place before I leave town. I ordered "The Classic" with fries. The steak sandwiches was HUGE - I couldn't eat it all. I am really not a big cheesesteak guy (being from the Chicago area) but this one had perfectly cooked meat, great onion and butter sauce and cheese. The fries were great, half a click down from my all time favorite, Five Guys. All in all, well worth your trip - highly recommended - 4.5 stars!!!

    Holy crap what good sandwiches absolutely delicious. This was our first meal in Philly and it did not disappoint. Their classic with the peppers and onions and jalapeño spice was divine. My wife's chicken Philly was great too. Service was great and prices as to be expected. Good was absolutely delicious like one of the best Phillys ever. They live up to the reputation! Would absolutely recommend a visit. They've got plenty of indoor seating available and it was a bit warm in there but otherwise it was perfect.

    We came here for a later lunch and this place was busy! With a few tabletops in the front of the restaurant with a few more tables in the back it is def. cozy. My husband and I split "The Classic: which consists of Prime rib, cooper sharp cheese, buttery steakhouse seasoning and sauteed onions and peppers. We also got an order of their hand cut fries (pricey at almost $7!). The sandwich came out pretty quick and smelled amazing. First bite and you know the steak was seasoned very well. Loved the cheese throughout. I also loved how they hollowed out the bread so its filled with meat, cheese and veggies. This might be one of my favorite cheesesteaks in the city! The hand cut fries were also pretty tasty with ketchup. Fried a perfect golden brown and were really good. Solid place! And a place where you can actually sit down. We def. will be back to try other sandwiches.

    The Classic, Fries

    We headed over for dinner and wanted to try another Philly cheesesteak recommended by a friend. The interior has some seating along the windows and it is pretty bright inside. The staff were nice and helped us with choosing something since it was our first time. We opted for one of their preset options already to make it easier. The Classic - This was so savory, rich and cheesy. The prime rib meat that we selected was so soft and the bread, while thick, was easy to bite through. All together the flavors worked well from the meat, different melted cheeses and the caramelized onions. Fries - It wasn't too salty and nice to eat on the side with the more flavorful sandwich. We did take it to go so it was a little soggy but it had good seasoning. Overall, this gave a good impression of cheesesteaks after trying some other ones and we are interested in trying some of their other meat cut options as well as maybe building our own.

    Stopped by here after hearing lots of good things about this place. I had been craving a cheese steak after shopping at the Christmas Market in Center City. Lucky me, I found a nice parking spot right across the street from Shay's. Upon entering the door, I noticed the place is rather quaint, so I looked around and spotted kiosks where you could place your order and a few tables to sit in the front of the restaurant followed by a few tables in the back. I placed an order for a ribeye cheese steak with Cooper sharp cheese with black salt, pepper and garlic. I tried to order fries, but was told there were no fries on Sundays. So, I can't review them. I waited maybe 10-12 mins when my name was called. I was handed a plate with my cheese steak. I loved the fact that the steak was pouring out of the bread. I immediately tried a fork full and smiled. The cheese steak was well-seasoned, the meat was tender and the meat to cheese ratio was spot on. The roll was soft and held the contents well. I was happy with the cheese steak and wished that I had some fries to go with it. Lol! Overall, Shay's makes a solid steak that I would gladly grab again whenever I am in the area.

    The Classic; yum!

    I was once in Philly a long time ago and remember enjoying a cheesesteak, so u was looking forward to that again this trip. This place did not disappoint! I'm not a cheesesteak aficionado, but I loved the flavors of the sandwiches here. We shared The Philly Special and The Classic; both were great and delicious in their own way. If I had my choice again, it would be The Philly Special. I was particularly impressed by soft and fluffy the bread was. The Philly Special was so flavorful with a spicy kick. The Classic was also tasty but with a different flavor profile. You really can't go wrong; the quality and flavor of the meat is amazing! A great start to our trip.

We celebrated my birthday there and I was a bit shocked when they didn't offer to comp a dessert, since most steakhouses usually do, but I didn't mind as it's not expected. Our second visit didn't live up to our first time experience. The steak we ordered was so raw that it was inedible. Luckily, we got 2 big entrees so we were able to enjoy one and take the steak to go and cook it a bit more to enjoy for dinner the day after. This third visit REALLY threw us off. First, we waited over 30 minutes to be seated. When we were finally seated, we were seated in what is likely the most uncomfortable seat in the restaurant. You would think if you just made someone wait 30 minutes past their reservation, you'd maybe give them the bigger table that's available to get them back in your good graces. I will say most of the food was very good. We ordered the crab and artichoke appetizer which was good but not great, and for dinner we ordered the duck which was cooked perfectly and the ribeye which was also cooked well. I had mentioned it was my birthday at the beginning of the meal. Since I didn't receive anything with my last birthday experience, I had no expectations of a comped dessert. That was until the young lady at the table next to us received a comped baked Alaska for her birthday. When it was my turn for the waiter to offer a dessert we were asked if we wanted to order anything. We said no and asked for the check. When they brought us the check, they finally remembered we had been delayed half an hour and that's when they offered a comped dessert. Why is it that someone else got a free dessert for their birthday and not me? If you're going to offer that to one you should offer to all. Other than that, the service overall was very lacking. We were checked in on 3 times during the night whereas the table next to us received constant check ins. Not sure what that was about since we had the same waiter. We were also seated and ordered before the table next to us and they received everything before us. Appetizer, dinner, dessert and check. Not sure why this happened but after tonight's disappointing experience and overall food inconsistency I have decided not to dine here anymore. More for tonight's service than anything else. Disappointing and overhyped.

The first impression was not especially auspicious. The restaurant is tucked away in the basement beneath a building on Walnut Street in Philadelphia, and at first glance the menu prices gave me pause.

I ordered the 9-piece tasting menu with uni for $68, and every single piece of nigiri was exquisite. The fish practically melted in my mouth, with outstanding freshness, texture, and flavor. Each bite felt carefully crafted and perfectly balanced. The service was equally impressive. The staff was warm, cheerful, attentive, and made the entire experience feel welcoming and relaxed. I arrived toward the end of the evening, so the restaurant was pleasantly quiet, which made the meal even more enjoyable. This was truly a memorable dining experience. Every course was exceptional, and I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates outstanding sushi.

It was quite a lot of food, but every dish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. The tuna tartare--with avocado and prawn chips--was incredibly fresh, delicious, and well-seasoned, with a delicate balance that really let the quality of the fish shine. The medium-rare sesame ahi tuna was another standout--perfectly seared, tender, and rich in flavor. It was so good that my husband started digging in before I could even snap a photo. We couldn't even finish all the sides, and by the end, we were completely full and had to skip dessert--but that just gives us a reason to come back. An exceptional dining experience in every way--this is easily a 5-star experience, and one we'll be thinking about long after the meal.

    Overall ** An absolute disgrace to the Del Frisco's name…read more Ambiance ***** Has to be the most beautiful setting for any establishment. Towering ceilings, red drapery and a vault! No matter how terrible everything else is, the space will impress anyone. Service ** Our bartender was very friendly but he was totally unprofessional. He was like a child with attention issues as he was running around like a chicken without a head and couldn't get much right. A bartender in this type of establishment should be seen not heard. Food * Absolutely awful from start to finish. Shrimp cocktail were overcooked, tough and tasteless. Our 48 day dry aged NY, ordered Medium, expecting Med Rare was Rare. Fine I could live with that, but it was ice cold. Worse yet the steak was awful. Tough, chewy, tasteless, you throw out the terrible adjective, this was it. I tried to power through it but the more I tasted it the angrier I got. Without question, one of the worst steaks I have attempted to eat. Value * $110 for a borderline inedible steak is outrageous. They did take it off but maybe even more shocking, no manager came over after I just rejected a $110 steak! It is like they know.

Her attentiveness was so appreciated so we could all enjoy a meal together, a rare occurrence! The food was great and the vibe was very cool.

A quick note for first-time visitors: the restaurant has multiple entrances, and I initially arrived at the back door. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful in directing me to the correct entrance. The space has a unique atmosphere. The indoor dining area felt quite dark, but the restaurant appears to have multiple levels, including an upstairs dining area and a bar, which adds to its charm. I started with a cocktail and really enjoyed it. It was fruity, well-balanced, and had just the right amount of alcohol without being overpowering. Based on recommendations, I ordered the burger. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype for me. It could have been cooked better, and overall I wasn't particularly impressed with it. What stood out most was the service. My server was attentive, friendly, and checked in regularly without being intrusive. Overall, The Dandelion offers a pleasant atmosphere, excellent service, and great cocktails. While the burger wasn't a standout for me, I'd be willing to return and try other menu items.
