great food , fast service ,
The food was AMAZING!!!! Everything was hot and. delicious 😋 We're out of towners, but will be back for this!!
Keith, the owner, is a Philly boy, he knows what he is doing. Bless his sole, he is turning out a fantastic experience. This cheesesteak and fries are over the top.

The Philly Special is a popular spot, especially for fans of cheesesteaks. Located in the Midwest, it offers delicious Steak Philly with white cheddar and onions. Customers love the thinly sliced beef, caramelized onions, and cheese, which create a flavorful combination. The menu features different sizes of sandwiches, with a 12-inch one big enough to share. The fries are highly praised for their crispy texture and are fresh and full of flavor. The atmosphere is casual and unassuming, located in a strip mall with TVs to watch the game. The staff provide excellent service and are super friendly and awesome. The cheesesteak is often described as authentic and filling, with some saying it’s the best in Lake County. Customers also enjoy the bourbon wings, hot pretzels, and the smash burger, which many consider the best in the area. There is an awesome beer and drink section. Overall, The Philly Special offers clean surroundings, friendly service, and quality food that keeps people coming back.
