South Philly Cheesesteaks - Cheesesteak and a side of fresh cut fries - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

The meat is like mincemeat it's so ground up. It's like eating hamburger. Disgusting.

Nope! The server gave a look to suggest she did not like that we ordered one sandwich with chips and water. We said no to hot peppers and what do you know, the sandwich was so hot we could not eat it!! When we asked about it she said sometimes peppers are hot and they have no control over it.

I would not recommend this Restraunt. The place is dirty and the food is not very good. I drove a bit out of my way to try this cheesesteak. All I can say is the grill cheese my child had was much better. It is expensive too. read more

My favorite sandwich of all time. I have not been to Philly yet, but I cannot imagine it gets much better than this. The service is the absolute best and it feels like you are transported back to an Eagles bar. Great spot and vibe for amazing food. read more

Haven't been there in awhile but use to go often, food & service Is great. *. Philly cheese steak Is the best read more

Outstanding place!!! I go there often. Great sandwiches and the service is excellent. Awesome shakes also.

I came here because of the reviews. It's a small local feel type of place. I ordered a chicken Philly with mayo and it was really good. It was seasoned well and came out steaming hot which I liked. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a cheesesteaks. They also have a veggie option. read more

This place is right up the street from where we live, so I have been wanting to check it out for a while. Has great Yelp reviews and a good recommendation from our neighbor, so I finally decided to stop by. The service was quick, friendly staff & really good food. My husband and I both got a cheesesteak then shared an order of fries and boneless wings. I had to bring half my sandwich home as it was really filling. A lot of meat & the roll itself was great. The restaurant was clean and the food was fresh/hot. Being that it's about 5 min from our house, we just may become regulars! I highly recommend. read more

South Philly Cheesesteaks - 8 inch cheesesteak - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

I wasn't expecting much because let's face it...ALL cheesesteaks pale in comparison to Gino's and Pat's. Yes, I said THAT! This was a pretty solid cheesesteak. Unfortunately, the grease hang over and extreme heartburn was real after the meal. Since this is a rarity for me, it left me a little lackluster from the dining experience. I would probably go back sometime to try another one of their incredible shakes though. The options are unlimited. read more

Came here because a friend highly recommended. So glad he did! Amazing, friendly, prompt service. This place is hopping- so you know it's good. Lots of locals. I chose the Philly with chips and a giant coke. Everything was delish! They don't skimp on meat or cheese. The roll- OMG THE BEST! If you get a chance, definitely check out this place. Very reasonably priced as well. $13 and some change for this lunch. read more

South Philly Cheesesteaks - Classic 6" Philly, served as listed on the menu - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

The Garlic Bomb sandwich was delicious, but the steak is chopped instead of sliced which drastically changes the texture and I can't find any authentication for the practice. I didn't notice any of the promised onions or peppers. I'm glad the bag of chips was small. read more

I was looking for a bit of "flavor home" today and did a cheesesteak search to see was nearby. Very pleased at having found South Philly so close to my office. Prices were fair, sandwiches were monstrous and the flavors brought back fond memories of South Street and "wit" or "wit out". We did carry out but the service was pleasurable and fast. Another high recommendation. read more

Great food, great choices, great staff. Whole family with kids, all of us had something different. All of us left miserably full with a shake in hand. Only complaint was they were out of a couple of our first choices of stuff, but still very happy with our second choices. read more

The best cheesesteaks in town! Weekly favorite of ours. Service is always great and the quote times are always accurate.

Annual Visit to Bradenton... = A stop at South Philly! The food is on point ... every visit regardless of which location we choose. 34th street was the winner this trip! Service is always Top Notch... the food ... 10 out of 10 ... soft bun... finely chopped steak, peppers & onions... mix in that creamy cheese & boom... DELIC! Oh how I wish you would expand to Fort Wayne IN! Well done South Philly ... you have the quality dialed in .. clean restaurant , kind team members , & delicious food! A must EVER visit to the area! read more

My entire Dad's family for the past two generations are from Philly, the home of the CHEESESTEAK! South Philly is as close as it gets, all the way from having their bread shipped from Amoroso, the ONLY manufacturer of cheesesteak bread! It's those little special touches that make the difference! Close your eyes and you're on South St. in Philly! read more

Great cheesesteak South Philly Cheesesteaks now has a restaurant in Sarasota which I still want to try, but today I was up in Bradenton with an opportunity to grab a late lunch. Unlike my previous review, I arrived at such an off time there were only a couple of other customers. They offer table service for dining in, which is what I did. My server was right over, and I was ready. I love cheesesteaks and did spend some time in Philly, and ordered a Philly Cheesesteak Wiz Wit. I also agreed to the hot peppers. The sandwich was ready in a quick 4 minutes. The sandwich was great. It was made with bread from the Amoroso Bakery, and like I described in my previous review, a filling that was so finely made that it was more a smooth mushy consistency than a textured shaved ribeye. Not something I remember having in Philly, but a great flavorful sandwich nonetheless. It did dawn on me the Wiz part of my order didn't seem like Cheese Wiz. I checked the menu and there were no cheese choices, just lists White American. I learned they don't have Cheese Wiz at this location, a lack of demand, but they do have it at other locations. I look forward to trying my Wiz Wit line at their Sarasota place. read more

Talk about getting a delicious Philly cheesesteak without having to fly to Philadelphia! Their garlic bomb fries are a must as an appetizer especially if you're with somebody because they're big enough to share for more than two people! Really yummy, I loved the cheesesteak with everything on it 8in was enough to fill me up! They come with a side of chips, which I can't ever have since I'm usually full but end up enjoying them later, my boyfriend loved the chicken cheesesteak. Truly worth it and delicious. The establishment isn't too big but usually people are in and out so you won't have to wait too long to get seated. There's a few tables outside if it's a nice day. I have also called ahead and picked up and order, very quick usually 10mins. They have one restroom for me and woman.. plenty of parking. They accept all major cc's and cash. Oh also make sure to try out their shakes! We will be ordering from here very soon! read more

Visiting Sarasota for work and was looking for a sandwich shop nearby. Came across South Philly Cheesesteaks and am happy I did! Bread was fantastic and the sandwich was piled high with meat and cheese. Excellent! read more

As the menu offered, among other items, a Rueben done Philly-style, I stopped in to give it a try. Small place, packed with tables and chairs, no booths. Busy at lunch, I was lucky to find a single seat. Coke products were offered, but on a sugar-free diet, the best I could get was Diet Coke. Most folks like me would be okay with that. I would have preferred Coke Zero, but I would have to buy it by the can. Not my preference. A quick glance at the menu verified the Rueben's presence, so I asked for it. I was denied the choice. The waitress told me it hadn't been available since St Patrick's Day, when the price of corned beef shot way up. No telling if or when the sandwich would return. Surprising the sandwich still appears on the menu! I switched to Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteak and the accompanying bag of chips. Fries would have been an extra $4.00. This was beginning to sound like a weak lunch choice. The chicken was thoroughly shredded and soaked in a moderate sauce. Not hot enough for me, but I suppose it would have been fine for spice-sensitive diners. At least the sandwich was well stuffed and the restaurant was ready with a stainless-steel fork without asking. Lots of hoagie choices on the menu, but no assurance what's available. I'm not convinced I'll be returning any time soon. Still, not a total waste. read more

I'm not from Philly, I don't like cheesesteaks, I usually don't eat this this type of food but I love this place!! Local owned business, they do such great job. My favorite is buffalo chicken cheesesteak. My family loves everything here...the Garlic Bomb, the Reuben, everyt is made with pride. Love to see a small business doing such great business. Fun to take new people here! Highly recommend. read more

Just okay. Not great. Wiz was nacho cheese from the ballpark. Service was extra slow. Won't be back.

My Cheesesteak was pretty legit. It was a mess but edible. I've had cheesesteaks all over Philly so I know what I'm looking for. It wasn't perfect but it was good for a cheesesteak in Florida. Loaded fries were a big miss. They were a mess and we left them. Just too much going on. Not all those flavors played well with each other. Service was a bit slow, but our server was nice. Vibe checked out. I would return. read more

I am not crazy about American cheese but the steak salad was ok. The place is small and is packed for lunch.

Grabbed a quick lunch today from South Philly. This spot has been around forever and they do a good deal of lunch business. I went with the small garlic bomb cheesesteak. Garlic bread steamed roll, ribeye, onions, hot peppers, white American, fresh garlic, and parmesan. The sandwich was solid. It was slightly under seasoned, but otherwise had great flavor. I will definitely stop by again to try some of their other offerings. read more

Absolutely cannot go wrong with ordering from this place...the food is always consistent and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful!

Their sandwiches are the best! We would order the garlic Philly Cheesesteak every time!

The service was great and the cheesesteaks were really good. Ingredients were mixed together creating some great bites!

The ABSOLUTE best cheesesteak in the state of Florida. I grew up in N. J. and lived in PA for 25 years. This place tastes like home. I love the pizza steak with fresh cut fries and an ice cold bottle of Birch Beer (something that is very hard to find in Florida). Highly recommended The service at this location was also A++ read more

Great little lunch spot. Food and service are excellent. Very clean restraunt and the food was fresh.

Good was awesome! Great cheesesteak and the garlic fries were awesome! The staff was super friendly just an overall great experience

The food is wonderfully delicious and filling. The onion rings are the best. Service is excellent. Very enjoyable experience.

With our 1.5 & 2.5yr olds we called in our order ahead of time because it was 45 minutes before the restaurant was to close. Having been in the service industry, we thought it better to order before our arrival as a courtesy to the restaurant crew. When we arrived 15 min later we planned to sit outside & we're setting ourselves up. However, the woman at the service counter rudely informed my son-in-law as she dramatically shoved a handful of ketchup in our bag, that when you order carry out then you leave with your food & that we were not welcomed to sit outside. We then packed our hungry children (now crying) back into the car for another 20 min ride home. We were excited to eat here and were shocked at how we were treated but we did our best to enjoy our soggy food. It's unfortunate that I felt a need to write this negative review. We realize that not all patrons are courteous & might've left a mess or avoid leaving a tip etc., we were dressed coming back from a wedding and not like that. Overall, we were disappointed & did not leave a usual healthy tip as a result of how rudely we were treated. Just a shame really. read more

We never ordered. When I called, they didn't have what we wanted. How can you be called "South Philly" if you don't even know what a pizza steak is? Or a calzone, or a Stromboli? SMH. read more

So good! Just like South Philly without the cold weather! You can also get a birch beer - seating inside or out, or call ahead and order to take out. Yum' read more

Food was good. The only reason I did not give the 5 start is because one our philly's sandwich had the wrong veggies we originally ordered and when we asked about it they dismissed our claim due to "cross contamination" with the grill. read more
