Went for lunch. Quick service. Was really impressed with the sandwich, they don’t skimp on meat and the bread is amazing. Owner was really kind and spoke with us. It’s not a cheap eat per se, however, you get what you pay for which is an elevated cheesesteak that is made with fresh and homemade ingredients, it’s well worth it. I hope people continue to support this local business. Look forward to going again

Great food & a great staff
Finish every bite when I eat here.
Can't comment on red meat though.
Chicken philly steak sandwich was good though and fries. Like that it is made fresh after you order.

Love this spot! Food is amazing , great music and atmosphere. Will definitely be back!
So my wife has been wanting to eat here forever so we finally stopped by. We ordered and that was easy enough there was only 1 person in front of us so didn't think there would be a wait. However that's not what happened. They skipped over us several times to the point where I finally walked in to check on it.
And there were our sandwiches sitting on a rack. After standing there for about 3 mins the lady comes out back, says we are still waiting on fries and I ask her "Is our food sitting there getting cold while we wait" her reply was you can have the sandwiches if you want. So I walk back outside to tell my wife and theeennnnn she calls my number for our food. This is after like a 20+ min wait so I'm expecting it to be delicious....WRONG!!!
My hamburger was raw as raw can be. I wish I would have taken a picture before I took it back but I was so pissed off at that point. If it was a little rare I would be ok with it, this was not rare it was RAW. I'm praying I don't get sick because I took one bite and saw the pink then I ripped it open to find out it wasn't even cooked thoroughly. I went and got the money back because I wasn't waiting again.
Then we realized my wife's cheese steak was not even made the way she ordered it and one whole half was literally just cheese.
We will not be back here and I'm sure that's what happens to a lot of people. It's giving tourist trap vibes. Or maybe the cook is just getting overwhelmed either way. It was a huge fail.

I will say their food good, but as a customer that has eaten here since day one. The food portion have shrunk so much. To the point it is now a joke. Prices have gone from $13 to $17. I am posting this as constructive, go to any cheesesteak place within a mile and compare. It will be double the size and similar quality. I just can't justify go here anymore.

Good eating, the cherry peppers and long peppers combo on their sammie with wizz took care of business. Will be back.

The server had no clue whose food was who's, and our order was all messed up. The large fry are a joke would hate to see the small. But the server needs to be trained. Food isn't that good. But Colonial is the best.

This place is outstanding.. just leaving a quick review bc it deserves a way higher rating. I get double meat and double cheese anytime I get one and this one did not disappoint. Best I’ve had in Florida. I wish I took a picture of it, but I ate it too fast.

Pass if you want a good steak sandwich. Did not seem seasoned. Bland even with peppers, onions and mushrooms. $22 for one steak and a soda. That's just a steak and soda no fries. What? Not going back here.

Best cheesesteak I've had in FL (in 20 years of tasting) and I used to live in the Philly area. They're slicing fresh ribeye every morning and getting custom bread each day. They weren't busy when I was there, so food was coming out in 5 minutes or so. Sorry buddy - I'm originally from Pittsburgh, so you only get 4 stars on atmosphere with all that ugly Philly stuff. ;-) It was really good.

So being from Philly and knowing many of the best spots there to enjoy a quality cheesesteak I will say I was very disappointed with this one. First off not even enough meat to fill the roll. I do agree that the roll was probably the best part not having it on an amoroso roll. The menu says fried onions. I don’t think they know what that means. They sauté their onions which was a big let down. I don’t like sautéed onions. The meat was lightly seasoned. Missing something though. Fries were ok but could have been better. And somehow I walked out spending $36. I would say it was worth 1/2 of that maybe. Not $36. I will enjoy violet stone if I want something close to home. It stinks because I really wanted to like this place. Love the decor and everything they have. That was about all I liked.

I really enjoy the food, particularly the Philly with hot peppers and the salad with house dressing. However, the consistency of the dishes can be hit or miss. The location is convenient, but placing online orders is challenging, and I often find the phone lines busy or directed to voicemail.

Came with the family and enjoyed every bite. The food was fantastic and the service was great. Can’t wait to come back for more!

My partner and I visited Little Philly, hoping for an authentic Philly cheesesteak, even turning down Charley’s cheesesteaks in favor of this place. We couldn’t have made a worse decision. While the staff were extremely friendly, the food was a huge letdown. We paid $16 for a 9-inch cheesesteak and upgraded for $2 to include fries. Unfortunately, the cheesesteak tasted overwhelmingly salty, as if an entire shaker of salt had been dumped on it. The portion of fries was also disappointing, with maybe 10-12 fries in total.
For the price, the quality and quantity were far from acceptable. This was one of the most unappetizing meals I’ve had, and I regret not sticking with Charley’s. While the service was pleasant, I can’t see myself dining here again.
