This East Coast-style institution guarantees the authenticity of its menu, making it clear that all sandwich steak is "imported" directly from Philadelphia. The favorite Philly cheese steak is made of thinly sliced meat topped with grilled onions and white American cheese. Also popular are oven grinder sandwiches and a medium-crust pizza. Transplanted Philadelphians make regular pilgrimages here to get an authentic taste of home, and sometimes Philadelphia athletes can be spotted stopping in for a sandwich while in town for a game. No time for to stop? A sidewalk takeout window allows those who on the go to grab a quick slice.
