"I had been really craving cheesesteaks for a while, so when I found this place on Yelp, I decided to give it a shot without much research. We opted for the Irvington location on a hot, sunny day, but in hindsight, we should have chosen the other spot that has outdoor seating. The food took a little longer to prepare, and since we had nowhere to eat, we ended up driving 20 minutes back home to enjoy our cheesesteaks. Unfortunately, the bread got a bit soggy during the drive, but the food was still tasty—though not quite amazing. I can only imagine how delicious it would have been if we could have enjoyed it fresh off the grill. I'm definitely willing to try it again the next time I get a serious craving!"

I ordered three cheesesteaks, and they were absolutely delicious! This place serves generous portions of cheesesteaks, probably the best I've had.

"That was my role, and it remains my role. Although they will be changing the name, I believe this decision will help us better understand the impact of these changes. Overall, I think it will be a positive choice." View menu

I had a strong craving for cheesesteaks one day and decided to visit the Irvington location without doing much research. It was a hot and sunny day, and I realized afterwards that we should have gone to their other spot that has outdoor seating. We ended up waiting a bit for our food and then drove 20 minutes back just to eat our cheesesteaks. Despite the hiccup, they were still delicious. I can only imagine how amazing they would taste fresh off the grill. I’d definitely be willing to go back for another one if I get the chance!

So I came across this place on black owned business in NJ on a Facebook forum. The place was a little hard to find due to the large line for Rita's. But I will admit this is hole in the wall Gem. I ordered a cheese steak and garlic parm wings and Henny wings. I'm a true foodie and this place gets 4 1/2 stars. They even impressed my wife who is super picky. The only thing missing was the fries topped with cheese and bacon they ran out) This is definitely my go to spot now for wings and cheesesteaks. Keep up the good work!! Some advice for the owner, the place isn't that big so you should keep out those that are just hanging out and not patronizing your business. Especially during this pandemi...

"I tried this establishment since it’s opening and the service is severely lacking in skills. Our waiter wasn’t able to speak about flavor profiles of the cocktails. When placing our meal order, we requested flour tortilla for their tacos. When order came out, we mentioned that the tacos had been placed on corn and his response was “it only comes this way”. If he had stated that earlier, the fiber would have chooses differently. The lack of service was so apparent, we requested to speak to the manager. The manger arrives without saying his name nor did state “how may I help you”. The manger stood there and said hello. And it was just awkward. He did offer to remake the plate; but enough time had passed and my friend was starving. Instead of checking on us as we were almost the only 1 of 3 tables, no one checked in. Upon paying, we asked our waiter to just call out the names on the credit cards and his response was “I have to clean”. In the time the waiter stated that, he could had read/passed out the receipts. We asked for a manager and this time the assistant manager came to our table and this time we were just horrified about the lack of professionalism. She did comp the tacos; but if you have to speak two times to management for lack of customer service, there is an opportunity to enhance staff training and an opportunity for the manager to just check-in and take care of the table himself. Do not know if I can recommend this establishment as service and management style are not consistent with what a restaurant that wants longevity."
