Johnny's Hots Review

Today I decided to stop at a sausage and steak place called Johnny's Hots.  Even though they are known for there famous hot sausage, I was there for a classic cheese steak that recently won Best of Philly in 2010.  To start off the location has minimal parking so park on a side street and walk down.  Also this is your standard outdoor shop so if its cold bundle up or eat in your car.

So about the cheese steak. It's really good and flavorful. the steak is chopped up like you would see in a sandwich shop or pizza joint. It is served on your classic Philly roll just like most of the shops in the Philadelphia area.  The only thing I wish Johnny's Hots did was use the cheese they give you with there awesome cheese fries for the cheese steak.  This place was definitely worth it and I would love to stop back in for some of there other menu items. Also if you plan on going down, the place is closed on Sunday and its open at 4.30 am every day till 3pm and closes 2 pm on Saturday. so this is more of your lunch hour place.

Capriottis Sandwhich Shop Review.

A while back i got a cheese steak from Capriottis.  Its your typical chopped steak on fresh rolls and the steak was very flavorful.  Just what you would expect from a franchise sandwich joint.  It's nothing like your Philly favorites but the menu is quite large and you bound to find something you will love.

Pepper Mill review

The Pepper Mill cheesesteak was probably one of the best cheesesteaks I've had outside of Philadelphia.  This review has been needed for a while now.  The cheese was evenly melted through the chopped steak. It seems chopped or not both can be very good though I prefer the authentic sliced meats.  The place atmosphere definitely has a home style welcoming feel to it and this place had an awesome menu.  The steak was equally flavorful and well cooked to perfection, the roll was fresh and not chewy like some of our popular steaks I dont mention out of respect.  I think if your in this area of Pennsylvania you definitely gotta try the steak and park out back. If I was going to rate this steak I'd say 1-10 its a smooth 9.

Gaetano's Steaks review

Hey all.its Dave here with a review of Gaetano's Steaks in Croydon.

While this place operates like any other pizza shop, it's the sandwiches that make them shine. They are simply huge. If you're looking for a filling meal look no further. The first thing you'll notice about this sandwich is its soft, thick roll scattered with sesame seeds. Typically im not a fan of seeds, but this roll helps make the sandwich. Like any other pizza place, Gaetano's chops their steak. It's far from mince meat though, because you definitely get sizable pieces. Steaks can be served with American, provolone and cheez whiz, but the waitstaff will always recommend going with "real cheese." So do I. When I order American or provolone cheese it's always melted properly and mixed in with the meat for a fine consistency. All in all you'll get a great sandwich

As a final note, this place operates like any other pizza shop. There's a full line of appetizers to choose from, and they're all great. This place is a bit pricy, but you'll certainly get what you pay for; huge portions that taste great

Steve's Steaks Review

Dave and me have been going to Steve's a lot simply because of the location in Langhorne is close.  Steve's steak is really good. It's served on an amazing long roll topped with medium cuts of steak topped with a molten lava flow of cheese...just with the cheese it sets them aside from most.  Also we love the cheese fries too.  Each time we go we usually get or steaks a different way then previously but we usually do wit or witout onions and American or whiz cheese. Sometimes I've put hot peppers and or hot sauce on the steak too.  I have also had a chicken cheesesteak a few times and its just as good.  Steve's is definitely one of our top steaks and they see us there as regulars mostly because its local.  I personally have eaten at every location too.  My personal favorite thing to do after a long day is to grab a 6 pack of beer in the bar and a cheesesteak from Steve's.

Chink's Steaks Review

Visited Chinks last week. Me and Dave got cheese steaks with American cheese and fried onions and a single order of cheese fries.  The steaks were a great size and we loved the roll. The steak was good quality and wasn't to stringy or chewy it was really good.  The fries were a tad to salty but still good.  We would of preferred the cheese on the fries though.  The location wasn't to bad and the service was great.  All the girls were really nice to us too.  We hope to go back again soon and try something different.
