“My oldest son and I went here last night for dinner and the older lady behind the counter was very pleasant. She offered suggestions and gave me some healthy recommendations. I loved her customer service so much that I will definitely be patronizing this location on my healthy food choices for 2021.“

“We visited Hershel’s East Side Deli which was recommended by Somebody Feed Phil. It was one of our favorites among the trip to Philly. They sliced the meat in a sense of urgency, stacked it with huge amount and it looked extremely satisfying.We had a Our Famous Reuben Sandwich, Daily Soup and Salad Platter Sampler. The portion was huge with reasonable price. There are 4 options for Our Famous Reuben Sandwich and we had Corned Beef. It was satisfying when we saw how thick it was and the texture was pretty moist with refreshing pickles.“
“The pictures do not do it justice. Literally some of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. And all the sides are impeccable. The fries with balsamic glaze and roasted asparagus were amazing. Dropped 40 bucks a person just from ordering so “
“I just happened to be here for work reasons. I noticed the level of attention towards customers. Immediately greeting all who walk in the door. Very personable. Each interaction seemed like an old friend visiting. I was fortunate enough to try the cheese steak. Why this wasn't on a top 10 list for best cheese steak in South Jersey is beyond me but they surely have my vote. If anybody asks me where to get a good cheese steak you know my answer.“
“Great Italian Hoagie spot in the heart of the neighborhood. The Chicken Cutlet is the real deal. They have just enough crunch to it on a worthy Philly hoagie roll. The people here- including owner- are warm and responsive dishin’ out these beauties. Pricing quite reasonable.Thank you guys for breathing fire into an area that needed a for-real hoagie spot.Now easily on the rotation.“
“I had a great time here! I’m visiting Philadelphia from out of town. You order at the front counter — the server was affable and had a great suggestion when I asked which cheesesteak to get with coleslaw. I got the Heater with hot sauce on the side. The cheesesteak was a comfortable amount of spice and i got to control my ratio of hot sauce to coleslaw. I am a coleslaw enjoyer as well: the coleslaw here was light, fresh and it cut through the spice and balanced the fat flavor in the cheesesteak, perfectly. Highly recommend!“
“Bonkers.Pastries (Leak & Feta Croissant, Bananas Foster Bun) were a perfect balance of crazy crisp and chewy. Savory or sweet, they get it right.Fagioli was delicious and a perfect partner to the sandwiches.As a hybrid (veg/meat) couple, appreciated the make your own Egg Sandwich. Minor structural issues as one reviewer mentioned, but totally worth the engineering!Ordered via delivery and everything was thoughtfully packaged.“
“It didn’t taste the same as how they used to taste to me. It’s been a few years since I’d been there. It was missing something. I remember the hoagies being so so good. I don’t know. But it just wasn’t mouth watering like I remember. Service was great. They were nice and friendly. But I’m not giving up that easily. I’ll be back and try them again.“
“When I first walked in not only was it one of the CLEANEST looking places I’ve seen! the owner is incredibly nice. I ordered an Angry Bird Sandwich and as soon as I took a bite I had to leave a review this place is a GEM! Great job guys seriously very happy I found a great spot close to “
“Without using wildly fancy ingredients, odd marketing gimmicks, or stupidly elevated prices, the folks at Middle Child have managed to perfect the art of the humble sandwich. Thank goodness for my wallet they aren't closer to where I work.“
“We walked by this cafe and decided to go in for lunch. The sandwiches were tasty and came out fresh, hot, and fast. It is a sandwich cafe, so nothing fancy, but my experience was solid. Think diner food. Also, the people were super nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend.“
“One of my new favorite spots for a cheesesteak. Incredible bread, excellent blend of steak with cheese and onion. Definitely worth a wit during lunch and dinner rushes. The bread absorbs all the juices. Steak comes out hot. Staff is friendly. Will definitely stop by when im back in the area.Parking: Decent parking. Lots of street parking and there’s a commercial lot across the street“
“Delicious! Only had their cheesesteak here, which was very unique. Their non-seeded hoagie roll was also fresh and tasty. The cherry pepper mayo used may get a little overwhelming as there's a lot going into this steak. I ordered online on a late Monday afternoon and took about 10 minutes for two to be made. Will gladly come back.Parking: Street parking on both sides. 2 and 3 hour paid parking available depending on time. Free after posted times.“
“My coworkers and I visited Human Robot and Poe’s Sandwich Joint on a recent work trip to Philly (we have a brewery in Baltimore). Everything was fantastic! We ordered a few sandwiches to share, and they kindly cut them up in smaller portions so we could share more easily. We also got a few orders of loaded fries, which were great for the table. The Italian pork and cheesesteak sandwiches were great, but the Seoul Girl fried chicken sandwich was out of this world. Great combo of flavors and textures. Great food, great service, and great atmosphere! Human Robot also has a dynamic list of both traditional and more more modern beer styles that really hit the spot.“
“A staple in the Reading Terminal market, so I had to give it a try. Roast Pork Sandwich with peppers - The sandwich came with some thickly wrapped butchers paper. Thinly cut roast pork was kinda dry by them self, but it got better as you make your way down the sandwich. Loads of sauce, soup? Was slowly making its way down the sandwich, thankfully for the abundance for paper there was not too much drippage. Would recommend opening it up and eating it on a table.“
“This is my second time ordering delivery from Jacks and the second time I am beyond happy. Both times my food was so hot it had to cool down for me to eat it.I would confidently say this is the best cheesesteak in the area.I’ve also had the chicken parm sandwich and fries both also above the average standard of almost any other place around here.“
“Got the cheesesteak with wiz/ fried onions and the fries. Both delicious. I parked in the Aldi. Sign Said I couldn’t- but they did tow me. Easy to get to- off exit 19 on I-95. Decent prices for Philly and they had the food to me in about 2-3 minutes. Worth checking out!“
“Best cheesesteak ever. Come from Boston 1-2x a year and me and my team always visit this place. Superb from the meat to the bun and cheese. Fries are good too. I can’t eat any other cheesesteak anywhere.Bonus outdoor seating on a nice day - clean too.“
“I've been frequenting this Jersey Mike's location for a couple years and have been very pleased with the subs and the service. Everyone on the team always treats me really well (Alan, Lucas, Ben, Kate, Henry, and more). Highly recommended!“
“This place is great, but every time I order the Napa, and ask for it cold, they grill it every time. Which is weird because they throw a question mark after grilled. Why isn’t cold the default? :/ please stop making my Sammie hot. Place still rules pull up.“
“We went on a Saturday and loved the place and food. The next day we went back to get more because they are absolutely amazing but they were sold out. My recommendation is that if on Sundays they have a great demand, they should prepare more to please all costumers. Sadly are flying back tonight and we won’t get to have our last taste.“
“Today my best friend and I had finished a workout and wanted a salad , I googled a place nearby that would have them and this place stood out based off the website and reviews I could tell they had good and also affordable options for lunch. We both got a toss grilled chicken salad , and it was so good ! Just what we needed after our hard work at the gym . We got the special which was a salad . A side of garlic bread and a drink. I’ll definitely be back in the future“
“Good GOD!! Was walking home and needed a quick lunch to bring back with me. Such an unsuspecting place - but probably the best sandwich I’ve ever had lol. Got the avocado caprese sandwich on ciabatta, added turkey & got a bag of chips. Paid $10ish plus tip! Speechless at how perfect this sandwich is I had to take a video haha. Will absolutely be back here, found a new regular spot!!Vegetarian options: So much variety!!!“
“So the guy at work kept telling me about this spot and i had to try it. I looked up a few vids on YouTube and fell in love with the first cheesesteak i saw. Will not lie i had my doubts cause it aint a pizza spot nor is it my bodega so was taking a chance but sure enough i found my self in love this cheese steak was so good im already rdy to go back for it again. Its suppose to be a #99 which is a big kahuna cheesesteak married to a chipotle and i took a few things out and added some stuff. Enjoy!“
“To be honest, I was skeptical because the prices were so low.I ended up ordering only the Cheesesteak, which was a bit bare on the meat, but for $7, it wasn't bad at all, and the flavor of the Cheesesteak was actually pretty good.I think I would go back and try their other options.“
“Stopped in today for the first time and we had the ‘Morocco your world’ sandwich and ‘Snoop a loop’ salad. Wow! They do a great job here. Friendly service. We’ll be back. Thanks for offering an excellent vegan option! It goes a long way.“
“Was looking for somewhere with breakfast and while they did have a breakfast sandwich I saw the cornmeal crusted fish and fried potatoes on the menu and needed to try it. It was delicious! The fish was cooked perfectly, crunchy on the outside and still juicy on the inside. The potatoes were also great, kind of like chopped up potato skins. Overall very delicious. One recommendation would be to add more sauces to choose from, I was not a fan of the stock sauce.“

“This place was great. Employees were great and really nice and the ribs were incredible. The potato wedges and the Mac n cheese was great. I have never loved a restaurant so much when it was my first time ever having it. I love this place so much.Kid-friendliness: The employees were really nice so they would be really good with kids.“
“Empanadas United is a really great addition to East Falls! I got a three empanadas: chicken and cheese, a ham and cheese, and a guava and cheese. The food came fast, the empanadas were hot, the dough was crispy and flaky, and the cheese was melty. They make them very mild and have a variety of dips, hot sauces, and spicy mayo, so you can adjust spice to your taste. All three empanadas were yummy - my favorite was the ham and cheese. They even threw in a free little pudding treat for valentines day! I will definitely be going back.Parking: neighborhood street parking“
“As a native Philadelphian, I have always been on the hunt for an authentic hoagie that truly captures the essence of my beloved city. I am thrilled to have discovered Fink's Hoagies, a hidden gem that has quickly become my go-to spot for a taste of home.From the moment you step into Fink's, you are greeted with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of their hoagies, from the perfectly toasted roll to the generous portions of high-quality meats and cheeses. Each bite is a symphony of flavors that transport me back to the streets of Philadelphia.One of my favorite hoagies at Fink's is their classic Italian. The combination of thinly sliced prosciutto, genoa salami, and capicola, layered with provolone cheese and topped with lettuce, tomato, and onions, is simply divine. The meats are expertly seasoned and the ingredients are always fresh, resulting in a hoagie that is bursting with flavor.Another standout option is the roast pork hoagie. The slow-roasted pork is tender and juicy, complemented perfectly by the sharpness of the provolone cheese and the tanginess of the broccoli rabe. This hoagie is a true testament to Fink's commitment to using only the finest ingredients.What sets Fink's apart from other hoagie shops is their dedication to authenticity. Every hoagie is made with love and care, just like they would be in the heart of Philadelphia. The staff at Fink's is friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to offer recommendations or answer any questions you may have.In addition to their exceptional hoagies, Fink's also offers a variety of sides and desserts that are not to be missed. The homemade potato salad is the perfect accompaniment to any hoagie, while their freshly baked cookies provide a sweet ending to a satisfying meal.Whether you're a Philly native longing for a taste of home or simply a hoagie enthusiast looking for the real deal, Fink's Hoagies is the place to go. Their commitment to quality and authenticity shines through in every bite, making it a must-visit destination for any hoagie lover.“
“The cooks were very nice, helped out with recommendations and were accommodating with our preferences for our food. As someone who doesn't often go to places like this, I highly recommend it and will be going again before I'm gone!Parking: It's by the front of a Home Depot, so unless it's a particularly busy day for them, you'll find parking easy.“
“The staff here are amazing and so welcoming! You really feel at home. Coffee tastes good too. Only reason why I'm not giving 5 starts is because when I got there wifi and plugs to charge phone were broken. Nothing was working so I had to cancel my subscription since I was looking for a place to stay studying all afternoon. When management fix that, the place will be perfect then!“
“The kitchen faucet was corroded and was chaffing a weird matierial. He replaced it with 24 hours! My battery was dead in the master bedroom. I am so highly impressed with the efficiency and response of this building.Unfortunately I have more heater issue.Very pleased. :)“
“Sandwiches were Delicious and great prices! Nice little place with cool Philly themed decor. The 3 guys working were very friendly and helpful. They offer gluten-free rolls for their sandwiches which is great! Definitely will be coming here again!!“
“Day after day, week after week; this Jersey Mikes location is by far the best. Gina, Pete, and Mark are amazing staff who create a friendly atmosphere. I never had looked forward to lunch before I started coming here...thanks guys for being awesome!!Vegetarian options: As a vegetarian, I have plenty of options to choose from!Parking: Always plenty of parking!“
“I always get their lemonade fruit drink from them and its phenomenal, oh and i left money on the counter and went back 3-4 hours later and they returned it to me, at the time i didn’t even know i lost it, great honest people , thanks!!!!!“
“Updated Post: As much as I enjoy this store (for breakfast), I'll never buy a hoagie or chips from here ever again. I brought a Seeded Roll Hoagie ($14) and what you see in the pic is all that was put on it, NOT WORTH IT! When I opened the chips, more disappointment lol. The chips would barely fill up a 25c bag from the papi store. We live and learn...Original Post: Tried several breakfast items and lunch... Its on point everytime. Never had anything disappointing. Prices are reasonable considering the amount & quality of the food.“
“Made a pit stop at this Deptford Mall food court for a nice cheesesteak dinner. I was really in the mood for cheesesteak and this spot did not disappoint. The menu was pretty easy to understand and the service was fast and polite. The seating is ample and was not too noisy so my friends and I were able to sit down and talk very comfortably.“
“Every time I visit this store, I am always so pleased with my meal and the customer service that I’m given. Both employees, Nick and Zach go beyond their duties and always make sure my family and I are satisfied. The store is also always clean and they always have smiles when we arrive. I feel comfortable going there and they even remember my name and order. I will always be a customer of this location because of the amazing service. I highly recommend customers to visit this location!“
“Everytime I come and get the FILET MIGNON SANDWICH on Italian breadIt melts in my mouth ... always perfect.... The owner and staff and friendly and inviting....the cashier she's the best and last but not least the grill masters....I travel any where to get Nick's food.....TRUE “
“I ordered a sub for my wife and after getting home she realized it was not right but close enough to not make a big deal out of it. Without even saying anything I received an email from Bread Board apologizing for the inconvenience and issuing a refund. The people are always so friendly and this just shows their customer service is next level. We highly recommend them!“
“Awesome location. Great people and delicious meal. Tim is a fantastic guy. Among my favorite places to eat is The Stadium Grille. Every single one of the staff is friendly, polite, and quick to respond with an explanation or a joke. If you are nearby the stadiums, I highly recommend stopping in.“
“Not really a vegan dude but considered to eat healthy today&tried this spot outBlack owned which was a plus for me.I got the meat lovers burger&a tossed salad.Burger was cooked to perfection..roll was soft&tasty..salad was fresh&crispy PLEASE GO HERE&SUPPORT THIS NICE BLACK WOMAN&did I say the price very affordable..a definite place I would visit again&again&again..can't wait to explore the rest of the menu“
“I've been here a number of times, their sandwiches are amazing, the best in center city! I've tried numerous items on the menu and never been disappointed. My only critique is I wish they were open for longer hours and on weekends so I could fulfill my off-hour sandwich cravings!“
“My husband and I were in town for the day and stopped here to eat. He had the chicken cheesesteak with cheese wiz and I had a roast beef sub. We both liked our sandwiches. One thing that stood out was that some young kids came in without an adult at the time and the gentleman working the register helped them out and was very kind to them until the adult came in. It was nice to see someone watching out for kids.“
“Got the bulgogi specialty hoagie--it was excellent! One note--there are no places to sit or stand to eat (old photos show tables but that is not the case anymore)--though there is a park with picnic benches about a block away (Liberty Grounds I think)“
“Love this place so much the hoagies r great service is wonderful the place is perfectly clean and staff r always greatParking: The times I've always gone I always find parkingKid-friendliness: They have stuff kids like and they treat the kids great“
“As a proud North Philadelphian that now resides in Cherry Hill and a true cheese steak snob.....I am definitely going back. My only issue was my steak wasn't cut in half. And I think if the ketchup and mustard was on top of the meat and not on the roll the roll wouldn't have been a little wet.11/10/23 edit update: Listen here Di'Nic's I don't know what the F-Word y'all did to these sweet peppers...but I need the recipe. Those jawns were so good, I wanted to eat a bowl of them. The hot peppers were way too hot for me so I gave them to my fire breathing daughter lol. But those sweet peppers are top tier. I just wanted to let y'all know.“
“This is the first review I've ever written, on any platform! But I feel the insuppressible urge to say this:I bought the Honey Maple Turkey Sandwich.I took a bite.I knelt, I smiled, and then I cried.P.S. The kneeling down part is obviously an exaggeration, but everything else is true. This sandwich... man... it works great wonders. I've never thought I'd write a review for a freaking sandwich, but here I am. And I hope you will too.“
“I got the medium sized (10 inch roll) "Pepper Lovers Dream" - pepper turkey, pepper ham, hot pepper cheese, pepper shooters, long hots, lettuce, tomato, onion, light on the oil and vinegar.This hoagie is thiccck. Yeah, thick with 3 c's.I only ate half for lunch, and I have a big apetite (give me an hour or two and I'll probably go finish it ?). You want to talk about the BEST hoagie spots, to me, this is one of the spots that sets the bar. I don't mind the $12.99 tag on this when you get what you pay for. The roll holds up, the lunch meat is quality, the veg is crisp and delish. Someone tried telling me this place has fallen off and they serve lettuce sandwiches. Naw, this should be the standard if you're going to put the hoagie on a pedestal.“
