    Sweet potato fries
    May K.

    We drove all the way up there on Friday afternoon, in rush hour traffic from El Cerrito to get there because I was craving some Philly cheese steak! Parking was easy... right next to Target! Prompt service for Alexa pick up of a classic Philly cheesesteak with everything large, and a hoagie large with no cheese and no onions along with sweet potato fries and curly fries, which were delicious! The portions were a little light in terms of meat ( gotta order the "king" size next time) in the sandwiches, but they were still really good and flavorful ! All of this for a little bit over 40 bucks and some change ! Needless to say we will be back!

    I'm so pissed. And I come here all the time. I bit into my cheesesteak sandwich and a chunk of glass was in it. Literally cut the inside of my mouth. Like what the hell.

    Got the cheesesteak & Hoagie, the regular size cheesesteak that's their small is only a teaser & makes you want more. I noticed they changed their hoagie's ingredients it use to be salami & other sliced meats but now it's the same as a cheesesteak except w/mayo, tomato & lettuce added. I prefer the old one better. Onion rings are really good..

    Always a good idea. I like that they now offer a dinner for two combo that includes a classic or premium king split into two with choice of fries and 2 drinks. The food was fresh and served hot. Service was ok.

    I had a failed GrubHub order from here, the driver did something dumb and never got my food and my order was cancelled. Angrily and reluctantly, I went through the app and ordered for pickup. I get my food and go home. I get home to see that my sandwich was completely wrong! I'm so mad I'm about to cry. I don't feel good and I'm exhausted and all I wanted was something easy to eat and I just couldn't have it

    This is what $21 bucks gets you- pathetic.  Supposedly that's "a large fry".. small large for sure. Really ???!!!

    That's what you get for $21- pathetic! Those are all "large" .. more like smalls. Larger portion sizes! I don't plan on going back. I should of went somewhere else. Food costs are not that much..!

    Classic Philly Cheese Steak

    I have had a cheesesteak from Philadelphia before and have tasted the unique flavors. Comparing a cheesesteak from California and Philadelphia I would feel there would be some similarities. The cheesesteak did not taste as good and looked very strange. It was filling but was no smaller than a subway 1 foot sandwich which for the price was not a good factor. The creation time was quite rushed leading to a lower quality sandwich although it could be just lower quality materials. Looking at the description of the product it seemed like the quality was top of the line.

    Wow !!!! You know how they say everything taste better when you are extremely hungry ? Yes , that's a LIE I am beyond disappointed in the cheese steak shop. I am at work stuck in a training so I ordered food through Uber eats (they were good at their service) wish my food met my expectations. Fries - curly fries were hard and crunchy (over cooked) they are stick all together Cheesesteak - suck !!!! I got the joe with spinach and mushrooms with onions and peppers added. It was suppose to have cheese on it so I'm confused on where the cheese was. The meat was not seasoned the bread was mushy on the bottom and overall TASTELESS and DRY with an overload on mushrooms Money straight down the drain !!!

    Chicken hoagie sandwich with steak fries
    Genny M.

    I came here today to give their sandwiches a try. I ordered a chicken sandwich Hoagie style and steak fries. Their restaurant is clean, although their table placement is a little strange. They have tables running down the middle of the restaurant where the line of people end up. We picked a table near the door so as to avoid people standing over us while we eat. I have to say my sandwich was just ok. It took sometime for it to come out and the meat was cold! I wasn't really expecting that at all. Cheese was melted, but the meat wasn't what I expected. Taste wise it was just ok too. Nothing to get excited about. Would I come here again? Meh, maybe.

    Classic Philly Cheese Steak

    This place is really great and has fast service! I've never had an authentic Philly cheesesteak before but I could imagine that this comes pretty close. The service is fast. I recommend sharing one with someone, their portions are pretty big. I would say their steak fries were kind of dry and unseasoned but I enjoyed their potato chips and curly fries. I also had their chicken tenders before and I liked those too! Not a bad spot, my family and I always come here when we're not in the mood to cook and want something fast. It's located in a plaza so there's lots of parking and things to do in the plaza. A local favorite!

    The restruant is clean and comfortable. Nothing fancy…read more We have gotten burgers here frequently and have never been disappointed. The serving sizes are generous. They have a large milkshake selection. The servers are friendly and check on you. We will be back.

    My wife ordered an egg burrito off the site (and me a sandwich) for dinner…read more They dinged us after a while that the order was ready for pickup. I went to the store to get it. There is no one in the place, there are four (high school aged) workers behind the counter. I stood there for a good minute. Not one came over to me. I moved over and got one of their attention since they were not going to come and assist (because you know, they were busy goofing off - there was no adult there). The order was NOT ready in fact, they didn't even make the fries. So they started the fries and I stood there while they were cooked. Why did you tell us it was ready when it wasn't remotely ready? I got my order and left, got home and realized the burrito wasn't there. I went all the way back and they said "we refunded the burrito, it's only served for breakfast" First off the menu does not say this. If it's only served during a certain part of the day THEN SAY IT ON THE MENU. Second, no one thought of letting anyone know it was refunded. Just did and went on about their day of goofing off. The people at the store there couldn't give a flying yahoo when I voiced my displeasure. The last couple times we've been here the service was almost non-existent and the orders are always messed up. And this was the last time. Management will read this and just laugh. They could not care at all. Time for poorly run businesses like this to be done.

    So I never leave reviews but this time I have to. My family and I have been eating at Embers since…read moreI was 5 or 6 years old and have always liked the food. The last 4 times my parents have gone there, Embers has gotten a simple plain cheeseburger wrong. My sister always asks for "A plain cheeseburger, meat and cheese only" This time we were given a plain hamburger, no cheese or anything else. The times before were a hamburger with mayonnaise, a cheeseburger that literally had everything on it and the other time it was a plain hamburger again. I don't know if the food ticketing system has changed or what but I've heard my sister order a plain cheeseburger each time while on the phone with them and this is what happens ...

    This was not my choice of restaurant but I went w/ my uncle & aunt, real meat eaters !!…read moreSo the waitress stated this is a meat place & they stopped carrying veggie burgers , plus they had no vegetables ! NO VEGETABLES ?!! But I was able to get a very plain salad ( iceberg, cucumber, tomato & croutons ) a w/italian dressing plus some sautéed mushrooms & the ever reliable French fries !! ( Definitely not a place for vegans but vegetarians would be ok if they ate dairy & eggs ) I couldn't believe they discontinued the veggie burger & had no frozen California blend veggies ! I won't be going back !!!!! Plus the fries were not that great either !! They were shoestrings but some were overcooked : really hard & dry ( uneatable ) ! There was not really notable decor , but it just seemed old & outdated, not in a charming way !!
