It's not bad
I'm from philly and all I can say is it isn't that bad. Really, I wish I could make you all some classic philly cheesesteaks with sliced ribeye, fried onions, and wiz on crusty/chewy italian bread. Instead you get Niman Ranch sirloin on french bread with lettuce and tomatoes (really a cheesesteak hoagie). But in general, I think it more suitable to the SF palate.

If you want a more authentic cheesesteak (and greasy cheesesteak shop) experience, check out The Philadelphia Cheesesteak Company on Davisadero. The bread is more like back home and the greasiness is about right. Yumm. - James , posted 11/07/06

and the art?
I love the seitan. No mustard... please. ugh.
BUT the new murals are amazing. They don't seem finished yet, which somehow engages my eye even more. - vajra , posted 11/10/05

props for the vegetarian options!
I know it's wierd to go to a cheesesteak place for the vegan option, but hey, it's rare and rad to be able to feed everyone under one roof, and since the food's great, everyone is happy! - Jenni , posted 07/27/05

Tasty and Reasonably Priced
This place has good atmosphere and great philly cheese steak sandwiches, though I gotta agree with another poster: pickles on a philly cheese? Luckily you can get 'em plain if, like me, that other stuff seems unnecessary to you. - Jeff , posted 04/24/05

Pickles?
What the fuck is with the pickles lettuce and tomatoes on the "cheesesteaks".

This place is fucking bullshit, and they just opened up another location on divisadero.

veggie cheesesteaks!
I love their vegetarian cheesesteaks! You can even go no mayo- no cheese for a vegan option. Amazing! When I first tried one, I went back three more times times that week! - Unsubscribed , posted 10/15/04
