Good quality cheesesteak. Great proportions of ingredients. Bread is crispy but not too much. Pepper gives it a little bite but not overly spicy. The steak isn’t overly greasy, and is very tender. A little pricey but it’s worth the indulgence if you’re craving cheesesteak.
This was a great sandwich. The sesame seed baguette was crispy and fresh, proportional to fillings. My shishito was not spicy but very tasty. The meat was great. TASTY and would have again.
This place deserves 6 stars. Honestly best cheesesteak in all of California. hands down.

Cheesesteaks by Matū is a casual spot that shares a space with HiHo Burger, offering takeout only with no table service. The restaurant serves cheesesteaks featuring a freshly baked sesame roll, 100% grass-fed Wagyu beef from New Zealand with ribeye and sirloin steak added, Cooper Sharp cheese, grilled onions, and roasted long hot pepper. The bread is crispy but not too much, the pepper gives a little bite but is not overly spicy, and the steak is tender and not overly greasy. The meat is tasty, juicy, and plentiful, and the cheese is cheesy. Some find the flavor of the meat and cheese very good, with great proportions of ingredients. The sesame roll is described as the supporting star of the sandwich. The house-made Wagyu Potato Chips fried in beef tallow are available, though the smell from the beef tallow will linger. They also serve beer and wine, Mexican Coke, and Mexican Sprite. Service is friendly, polite, and excellent. There is counter seating inside and outdoor covered seating by the water fountains. A 6% fee is added because it is a no-tipping establishment. The cheesesteak is $24, and some feel it is a little pricey but worth the indulgence if craving cheesesteak, while others feel it is not worth it. Some say the taste is good, period, but not special, and that there are far better at other places and better tasting cheesesteaks at a lower price. Some feel the place is overhyped and not the best cheesesteak in L.A., and that making cheesesteaks with wagyu is a big gimmick, with over-seasoned meat that tastes really salty.
