Absolute banger every time. I have been frequenting this establishment for over 10 years and unlike illicit drugs, this high is just as good as my first hit. Thank you ‘cheesesteak god c’ for the full send on my sambo.

First time at Forefathers, and oh man the cheesesteak was so amazing, from the soft bun to the hot toppings on it. Kudos to the staff.

I have been looking for a great cheese steak place since the one closest to me closed. This is an awesome cheese steak place! I have been 4 times now since I found this place. Everyone I take here says the same, it's delicious! The jalapeno cilantro sauce on the sandwich is a great option. The food is consistent every time and the service is top notch! The fries are perfect crisp on the outside and soft inside.

Don't skip on this place if you are looking for a great cheese steak!

You do not smell food when you walk in. The steak is pre made. Not fresh. I wont be back.

My friends have been telling me to grab cheese steaks here for some time. It's difficult to try something new. In this case it worked out. Wow, not disappointed. Great food and actually hot when I picked it up. The entire family enjoyed the sandwiches. I only wish they were closer.

I'm posting this right after I finished eating here cause it was that good! I was craving cheesesteak and this was the closest to me. Now I'm no Philly native nor cheesesteak purist, but I feel like they get the right mix with the cheese meats and toppings. I like mine on the wet side and the cheese whiz hit just right. The bread is good and the meat is juicy and tender. I got the large and it's a hefty monster. Easily 2x the meat of any hamburger. It's a saucey place as they have plenty of sauces to choose from sand you can get as much as you'd like, they're not stingy with sauce. The french fries were actually crispy and had just the perfect crunch and saltyness. I def have found the perfect place to satisfy my no frills cheesesteak craving.

My wife is from Philly so I was sent out to find something to make her feel at home. Let me tell you.....our entire order was fire. The steak sandwich was fire as we put Wiz and onions on it. Bread was super fresh and soft and steak cooked perfectly. The real surprise was the delicious BBQ chicken salad. We were craving some greens as well and this did not disappoint. The chicken made the entire salad as it was tender and generously portioned. We closed it out with cheese fries which had a good crisp. They even offered a free drink with the order to add extra value. Great find and we will be back soon!

Only been here once but DEFINITELY coming back for more. Not really a cheesesteak sub typa person but the way you can customize it made all the difference in the world. Some of the freshest meat too. Chill staff that gets it done right the first time. Nice little patio you can sit out on too which is nice (or indoors).

PRO TIP: Your sub will be HOT-HOT, let 'er cool off a sec before you eat away.

Wanted something different and saw this come across FB reels and looked fabulous. The service was awesome. We ordered the regular cheesesteak. After we ordered, we'd barely set down when our food arrived. The sandwich was extremely hot so had to let it cool before eating. The flavor was wonderful. The fries with their light coating was very flavorful. The frie were not greasy. After we ate, realized we could have done with the smaller sandwich. Now we know that the portions are generous. Wonderful experience!

Sad to say this location has been a big failure! When they first opened it was just like the priest location full of meet an cheese so delicious but the past 2 times we went it has been lacking to say the least. I mean when it was good at least you could look past the boring atmosphere and get lost in a delicious philly but not anymore. It's half the meat and half the cheese even when I asked for extra extra wiz it was still not enough. Come on guys we've been going to forefathers for YEARS and we're were so happy you finally opened one in the east vally ! Now just to turn into a disappointment your better than this! Start filling your phillys with meat and cheese! Take notes from the priest location and maybe your location won't be so empty! Give the people what they want, what they're PAYING FOR ! Now the past two times we've gone it's only been us and one other person. The phillys shouldn't be able to close tight if this is the case lower your prices to reflect this chang. If we have to drive down to priest to get the good stuff we will but would rather see this location flourish and be just like the other location. Hope to get a response soon!
