When was the last time you were still hungry after eating a cheesesteak? Tried Gentile Cheesesteaks in Sarasota. No way is this a Philly cheesesteak. Cold roll, little meat, cheese, little onion, very dry. In Philly we eat cheesesteaks standing up, leaning forward, cause the juices drip from the roll. Gentile is sad! ... Philly gal
Recently got back to FL from Philly! I needed this! It made it feel like home! HANDS DOWN THE BEST CHEESE STEAK IN FL! if you write a bad review you’re not from Philly. I forget the guys name but he’s a true professional behind the grill. ?

Great cheese steak!!! Not an expert but I know what I like. Having been in Philly this summer tried the likes of Carmen's in the Reading Market, which was pretty good, and Dellasandro's, which was EXCELLENT...I would rate Gentile's very close to Dellasandro's. That is high praise in my book. The only knock might be the whiz (cheese) to meat ratio might have been slightly high... but better that than too low. Again, I'm no expert just a FL boy searching for great eats... and this place DEFINITELY DELIVERS!!!
BTW, daughter had the Italian hoagie and she LOVED IT!!! Also, fries and onion rings were on point!
Do yourself a favor... come and get some!!!

Yes, it’s down the Trail from town, but this is the only place to get a real Philly cheesesteak in Sarasota. Family run and caring, it’s a friendly place to eat in or take out from. If you’re ordering for pick-up on Friday or Saturday, make sure you call early enough — they’re so popular, they sometimes run out of rolls. Worth it!!!!

The best cheesesteak hands-down in Florida! I brought my buddies here over the weekend who originally introduced me to the cheesesteak and they left saying it was the best cheesesteak they’ve ever had outside of Philly! I hundred percent agree! I would even say it’s better than a lot of the cheesesteaks in Philly. The owners are great and very personable! This is a great family business to support while getting food!

How this place gets these good reviews is very suspect. BLAND meat, soft bread, BLAND, over priced, and BLAND. I guess Philadelphia doesn’t like seasoning? Zero effort in their food. I’m insulted. I mean the bread, they just take right out the bag and use it. Terrible. Zero effort. Did I mention over priced? 15 dollars for a BLAND, cold breaded sandwich. Terrible. I feel robbed.

If I was on death row, my last meal would 100% include a wiz with, add mushrooms, cheesesteak from Gentile's. It's worth the drive from anywhere along the sun coast, and the sandwiches are almost identical to Jim's on South - which is the highest praise I can give to a Philly steak. Support this small business, run by a kind, funny, young married couple from Philly.
