    Pep/Mush -CHEESESTEAK-
    Alex P.

    Woody's is an Atlanta institution, having been here since 1975. Its popularity, even in the middle of the night, it's a clear testament to the status that Woody's achieved. Its corner shack is gradually becoming a relic from a different time as the area surrounding the Beltline gets built up and transformed. So, how about that cheesesteak? Let's start with the bread itself. Calling it bread would be a stretch by any measure as it's a stretchy creation that is more reminiscent of bubble gum than bread. Looking through older photos on Yelp, it seems they may have changed the bread used for the sandwiches when Woody's assumed new ownership. The cheesesteak filling inside is well proportioned to the volume of bread and not bad at all. As a whole, it works: the sandwich stays together and is not a bad meal at an iconic Atlanta joint. Folks in the kitchen do wear gloves, although the cleanliness overall does not look great with lots of stuff on the floor. But, coming here at 1am, it's really not the time to be complaining about such matters. So, if hunger strikes at night or a desire appears to experience a meal from Atlanta's history, Woody's is probably the way to go.

    I'm not sure what happened this trip. The only thing to compliment was the Super fast service. To do you in, the meat had an odd, somewhat hint of liver flavor. I happens to like liver, just not on my Philly. This was definitely NOT their normal seasoned beef. Since I made the considerable trip to midtown and was already home, when diving in, it seemed pointless to turn around. Sighs...$15 - down the tube! Thus, I cannot say I was pleased on this trip!

    -ITALIAN SUB-
    Bonnie T.

    This is your sign to go to Woody's and order the Italian sub! Quite possibly the best sub in Atlanta. Service is quick and the outdoor patio is perfect on a nice day!

    I got takeout from here after reading good reviews. I got a regular cheesesteak with american cheese, added cheese whiz, mushrooms & peppers. I was a little disappointed though. I thought the mushrooms & peppers could've been cooked more. The bread & meat was good though. Decent price for the portion. Around $13. The way it was double wrapped in paper & foil kept it warm until I got home to eat it. I'd probably not come back though.

    We stopped by for lunch because the Eagles won the Super Bowl and my wife in the past had been to Pat's and Gino's in Philly.I had only been to Philly connection in Ga by comparison. The mushroom cheesesteak I got was fresh off the grill and delicious! The service was quick and the young workers friendly.They serve beer and dessert too. Ambiance was casual with a nice deck. They blare an old Atlanta radio station 99x which was cool. We loved the cheesesteaks !

    This place had amazingly good cheesesteaks. Yum! Definitely recommend. Service was ehhhhh and ambiance was whatever (kind of a smaller hole in the wall setting with some seating), and not too welcoming, but the food makes it worth the stop.

    Italian sausage with voodoo chips
    Daniel M.

    Well when you walk up,gonna kinda look like a hole in the wall place. A very small place with indoor and out door eating area. Im not gonna lie. I set on the inside and it was muggy hot. But hey we are in the south,thats just how it is.I walked up to the counter and placed my order. I settled on a italian sausage with onions and peppers. A bag of voodo chips and a tea. The guy behind the counter informed it would be about 11-13 minutes for my sandwitch. No problem and took a seat. A very short while later i was called to the counter to pick up my food. I hadn't even bit into the sandwitch yet and i knew it was gonna be good. Why, cause i was eating the onions and bell pepper stuck to the inside wrapper and it was good. The italian sausage and peppers were spot on. Im not gonna lie. Im sitting here thinking about trying a cheese steak too. But then they do offer ice cream and shakes. Im definitely gonna come back...yes i ended up with a pb shake.

    Bogus online order fee.
    Richard D.

    Went to place a $21 order by phone and was told they could not take a phone order over $20. I told them I wanted to place the phone order so I didn't have to pay the $1 online order fee. I got hung up on (or disconnected - most likely the former). I went ahead and placed the order online because my wife was really looking forward to one of their cheese steaks this afternoon. Why are they forcing the customer to pay the $1 service charge for an online order when they refuse a phone order and redirect you to use their online ordering portal? This is completely bogus. They're the ones that are refusing to take the phone order. The online portal saves them time and is more efficient, yet the consumer is charged for the so-called "convenience". We will not be ordering from there again.

    Bomb cheesesteaks in a no frills community staple. Woody's has been around since 1975 so you know it's good if they've survived this long. You go in, order at the counter and within minutes your piping hot and deliciously tasty cheesesteak is ready to devour. For Woody steak cheesesteaks, two bags of chips and two fountain drinks with tip our order was around $30.

    -ITALIAN SAUSAGE- Sandwich
    Debbie S.

    This place is reasonable on your pockets and food is good. The cheese steak sandwiches are delicious and so are the Italian subs! Plenty of cheese, mushrooms and onions. I enjoyed my food .

I loved the caramelized jalepeno slices since they added it beautiful hint of spicy sweetness to the dish. The bread has a nice chew and it does not get soggy fast. - CONS: Not that special. I dont know why it's "korean" since it tasted like a normal cheesesteak but with a few jalapenos. I also wish they added in more jalapenos (I got like 3). 2) Garlic Fries with Ranch: - PROS: Very nice texture with a crispy outside and fluffy inside that is not too dense. The flavor comes from the garlic mince that is on top. The ranch is like a mixture of an aioli and tartar sauce (I think they make it in house, correct me if I'm wrong). - CONS: Inconsistent texture as some of the fries were dense but a few had that good hollow crisp bite. Quite oily too. Overall, I enjoyed the cheesesteak but would probably skip the fries next time. I do believe it is good especially the bread. I don't think it is worth all the hype it gets, but it is good.

When I walked in... the young lady at the counter was on the phone having a personal conversation. I sat there until she thought it was a good time in her conversation to take my order. I ordered my same ol beef cheesesteak with provolone cheese, onions and ketchup. I was told 15mins, then she picked up her phone and continued her conversation. I decided to wait in the car because the music in there was extremely loud and I couldn't hear my phone call nor myself think. After 15mins... I went back inside and was told a few more mins, which turned into me waiting a total of 30mins for my sandwich. I was tempted to ask for my money back, but I was hungry and had my tastebuds set to eat this sandwich. Fast forward to me getting home. My cheesesteak was lukewarm. I didn't make any stops and it usually is still piping HAWT when I get back home. Not this time. I swear I should've known something was up just by my initial experience in the restaurant. Anyways.... My sandwich was smelling a lil spicy... I see a hot red pepper in the wrapping and thought they just wrapped it in my sandwich by mistake. Um NO! There were hot red peppers throughout my sandwich. It was as if they realized the peppers did not belong on the sandwich and tried to take them out, but a whole lot of them were left in there. Instead of making a whole different sandwich and having the young lady tell me there was a mistake with my order, they gave it to me as if it was what I ordered. I wouldn't have minded if I liked spicy food, but I don't. I actually despise it and have heartburn from the sandwich! The sandwich was extremely spicy, then it was like extra pepper was added onto it as well. Then the amount of meat that used to come in the sandwich is not the same either. It was only a small portion of meat on it. As much as I would love to go back to Riley's.... I probably won't.

    I thought the cheesesteaks here were actually pretty good. I did however feel the prices could have…read morebeen a little better.

I originally visited the Doraville location a few yrs ago (next to the Super H Mart) before they closed. Not being impressed then, I'd checked Dave's off my list. But a good friend changed my mind - SO glad they did! I tried the Truffle cheesesteak - ordering as it came, with no modifications. Between the truffle mayo and the cheese, I couldn't ask for more. And while I typically like peppers and shrooms on mine, this one needed nothing else. The BIG notable is that the meat is not dry at all, which a lot of places get wrong. It's a 45 minute drive for me. So I can't say that I can visit as much as I would like. But 3 visits later, it's safe to say that I'm a fan! The setting has small tables and chairs, maybe to accommodate 15 to 20 people. It is not the cleanest establishment so that could use a bit more attention.
