This is one of THE best restaurants I have ever eaten at, and is definitely one of the best in the area. Everyone knows the adage “don’t judge a book by its cover.” It is when this adage is applied with an attitude of whimsicality that often the best things and experiences are formed. My friend and I decided to come here during lunch one day upon a recommendation from another friend. The outside of this place is a bit unflattering, so we went into the establishment not expecting much. Boy were we surprised. Immediately walking in, we were greeted cheerfully by the chefs in the open kitchen. The interior decor, while a bit rustic, makes the restaurant feel very homely and cozy. The kitchen was well maintained and the floors were impeccable, and while I did not have time to visit the lavatories of this establishment, everything else was perfectly clean. We ordered the 22” special cheesesteak (comes in 2 11” halves) and shared it, and later ordered a side of curly fries. The cashier was professionally cordial and very efficient and enunciated, informing us rapidly about which menu items she recommended. After getting our hoagies, we were entrenched in the smell of the delectable cheesesteaks, and were eager to dig in. We were not disappointed. Our minds were transported to another dimension, like a raindrop falling gently against a car windshield, caressing the surface with a nimble feminine ease. The tangy tomatoes balanced out the juicy fresh steak, the slight bit of saltiness from the cheese brought texture and flavor, but also kept the greasiness of everything under control. The onions and peppers added a satisfying crunch to the texture, and it was all tied together by the freshly-cooked bread. As for the fries, the length and freshness of them indicated that they were homemade and home-cut. The texture was perfectly crispy, and it was complemented impeccably by the high-quality ketchup they provided. We left feeling extremely full and surprised by how good the meal was. Both my friend and I vehemently recommend this establishment without reservation. We will definitely be returning with even more of our friends and for many more lunches to come. Would rate 10 stars if I could. 10/5

Was staying nearby and looking for a good sandwich/sub. I saw this place was closeby, had consistently good reviews and reasonably prices.

Did this place change ownership or just the original owners just give up?

Best rolls in new jersey! Almost the perfect steak sandwich. If they would learn to put the cheese on before the steak is fully cooked so you don’t get an overcooked sandwich, they would be the best in the state by far!

:×I’ve ordered twice from here. Wasn’t impressed either time. The cheesesteak was a bit better then there Italian sub. Everything on the sub was room temp. The meat taste like Oscar Myers pre packaged deli meat. Was absolutely gross. Never again!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place itself is a simple, no frills establishment but serves its purpose. We got a cheese steak and a buffalo chicken cheese steak. The food was ok, definitely not amazing though.

They have the best hoagies around. What makes this place special is that they bake their own bread every day which what makes a great hoagie.

First time here and picked up 11in cheese steak to go. For price I paid it was a good portion and made appropriately. There’s 4 counters with stools so not much in the way of dining in. They have cold hoagies, hot subs, soups, and sides. I’d go back again. 8.3/10
