phil’s is easily the best cheesesteak i’ve had in nyc – way better than carl’s and shorty’s. rivals jim’s in philly. meat was tender and flavorful and the roll was on point. hope these guys come back to midtown soon.

John is back in action! He had to vacate his spot earlier this week because of the Jay-Z Carnegie Hall concerts. Chicken platters and burgers for all!

In my opinion it’s the best cheesesteak in the city. I went on a Saturday around 11:30 AM so i didn’t have to deal with a line or anything, but these cheesesteaks kill carls, and are a little better than shortys, but they are smaller. they’re basically the same size as the ones you get in philly.

the mint/unusual flavor could be purslane. back when i lived in astoria, a little place around the corner made the most delicious spinach pies, very unlike the norm. after going there a bunch of times, i asked the owner/cook and she told me she used mostly purslane, which she picked wild on long island.

I am sorry you got that response from them. Puzzling, indeed. I wish I was there to make sure you got a delicious lunch.

I recently moved here from Philly and was really looking forward to Phil’s Steaks for a genuine cheesesteak. I got one earlier this week and too thought it was too soggy, tasteless and wrapped too tight. When I unwrapped it to eat, it looked like a cheesesteak eggroll. I know that most grill guys throw a little water on the grill when making steaks, but I think they used too much. That, and it needs a little salt & pepper. Hopefully it’s something that can be worked out with more experience. Yes, it’s a little pricey, but I assume they have to factor in buying the frozen Amoroso Rolls and having a commercial oven to bake them at their headquarters. i will try them again in a couple months to see if there is any improvement.
