    OG Philly Spicy
    Timia W.

    What the Philly is the best cheesesteak I've ever had! They're creamy, well seasoned, spicy even. It gets two stars because I've been trying to support for the last 3 years and this business is poorly run. They never answer the phone. They shut down early, don't keep their social media up to date to communicate important info. The truck moves often and the opening and closing times change everyday. I wish they were more consistent. If so I'd give 5 stars.

    We ordered the OG Philly's via UberEats as part of their BOGO deal. We ordered enough sandwiches to get free waffle fries too. The OG Philly sandwiches themselves were delicious: fluffy bread and tons of beef and cheese. The sandwich could of had more veggies, like bell peppers, to balance out the heaviness. The waffle fries were just standard and a bit stale. Overall, we would order their Philly sandwiches again.

    Service is great. Location is great. Food is amazing. Ample parking. What's not to love? I grabbed the happy hour special- $5/sandwich for the OG Philly. Sooooo good! My husband, kids and I downed those sandwiches like we've never eaten before. So tasty and reminds me of the cheesesteaks that we get back on the east coast. Always will be a fan.

    Waffle fries with fry sauce on the side

    Went during lunch at 2pm There was no wait at all I couldn't find the person taking orders but the trucks window was open with the open sign There was no bell so I called the number on the truck He came immediately lol So I ordered the twisted philly (spicy) ; with steak (there's an option for chicken) and waffle fries with the fry sauce (it was packed on the side) The fries were really good, not greasy at all with the perfect seasoning. The fry sauce had a little kick to it. Delicious The cheesesteak was incredible. Not spicy but it still had that perfect flavor and I highly recommend Side note the bun is very buttery. I love butter so it's a good thing for me but FYI for others if you want to opt out on that part.

    Did this Philly really come off a food truck? Huge in size and you can definitely share with a friend. They're always in the food truck park in Sugarland. Place your order and walk around. It's made fresh so a bit of a wait. Side note: they're always out of the side of the onion straws.

    Really friendly service and overall decent cheesesteak located in a food truck park in Sugarland that I stumbled upon. Didn't quite hit the craving for the authentic classic I was hoping for, which I knew would be the case since they weren't using provolone as the default cheese. Worth a try but I've had better in Houston (and Philly).

    What the Philly?! Love the name and the food. The Hubs and I ventured down Hwy 6 to try their Philly cheesesteaks. They were GOOD. We both ordered the OG Philly with extra cheese, cuz that's our business, but my husband his spicy. The Hubs almost drunk a whole bottle of water after one bite! It was spicy indeed. The waffle fries were seasoned ok and needed to be fried a lil bit longer. Nevertheless we done finally found someone that understands extra cheese omna philly!

    Burned steak and onion pieces
    John H.

    Ordered the extra meat Philly and waffle fries via Uber Eats. The fries do not travel well in a clam shell box and weee a soggy mess. That's fairly expected so whatever. The steak however was filled with burned pieces of steak and onion, a hallmark of a dirty grill and the bun was burned. Terrible version for a place that "specializes" in the Connecticut version of the steak (green peppers and Mayo!). Avoid!

    Having been around almost 20 years these folks understand cheesesteaks. They have a menu that…read moreincludes loaded fries, onion rings, chicken strips, burgers (including Vegan) and of course cheesesteaks. You walk to the front of the house where Angie immediately greets you with all the southern hospitality on the planet. Teams are smashing whole potatoes into fries and the place is BUZZING with activity. Clean including bathrooms. Food was ready faster than you can expect and steaming hot. First bite and you're like likely one of the best cheesesteaks I've had and I'm a fan of them. I did not get spicey but will be back to try it and possibly tomorrow. Toasted Kaiser roll crunched at first bite. Just an awesome sandwhich. So glad I found this hidden Houston gem. Now I have to work out an extra thirty minutes at the gym because this will be a once a week stop. Well done to this team. VERY IMPRESSED.

The hand cut fries and onion rings (thin) were also excellent, crispy, fresh, and the perfect sides to go with the burger. A few others in the group went with the cheesesteak and really enjoyed it, but personally, it wasn't my thing. No complaints though, I know exactly what I'm ordering next time: Double Spicy Burger, hand-cut fries or onion rings. Great food, fair prices, generous portions, and a spot I'll definitely be coming back to.

    We returned to pick up some burgers and biryani to-go for the family. It's been a while since our…read morelast visit. There were no customers inside at 1pm on a Saturday. The interior felt sticky and unkept, which is a shame because this is not an old spot by any means and Telfair is a pretty nice community. The legs of the tables were rusted over and the plastic of the chairs were chipped. There were cobwebs on the walls. It just felt like the place has not been well maintained. When we ordered, the cashier never showed or told me my order back and just gave me the total price, expecting me to tap my card. Hearing that our order for 4 people was over $60, the price sounded high to me for the prices listed on the overhead TV menus. Come to find out there was a markup on the loaded fries I ordered that was not reflected on the display. When I asked her about it, she nonchalantly said "Oh yeah the price is higher". My first thought was, hey it's a digital menu, how hard is that to change? Secondly, the attitude in response to how my order broke down was definitely not one of good customer service. I also asked how spicy the chili ranch sauce was that came with the avocado burger since my 6 year-old was ordering it and she assured me it was not spicy. We ended up having to wait over half an hour for our food. Turned out the avocado burger had some sort of chopped peppers throughout the spread and my son couldn't even eat a bite. The biryani was also extremely spicy. I like spicy food as much as the next, but the biryani was hot fire coming out the chute, and there was a lot "chuting" from the family after this meal. Needless to say, we won't be returning anytime soon. Which is too bad, because I want to support local, ethnic foods and honestly, I like the taste of the food.

    Sad to give this place two stars because the fusion concept sound promising. Burgers and biriyani…read moreare two things I enjoy, so I figured it was going to be hard to dislike. We ordered the tikka chicken masala paratha and chicken biriyani with a side of fries. The paratha was packed with protein, but unfortunately was hard and dry. The sauce/gravy within the wrap was decent, but just couldn't save the chicken. The biriyani was ok. Chicken was decent but the rice lacked something that made it taste like restaurants quality. The fries were the most disappointing - they were stale and tasted overcooked, sort of like when you reheat day old fries. There's an indicator when your child doesn't care for any fries. Overall meal was about $30. We tipped and cleaned up after ourselves. Not the best counter service, but not bad. The interior was ok. They had Mr. Bean playing on TV, so that brought back some old childhood nostalgia feels. Unlikely that we will be back, but if so, I'll try the burger next time.
