About Joe's Steak Shop

Joe's Steak Shop is known for its delicious cheesesteak sliders and steak sandwiches. The slider meal is the perfect amount of food, making it a great option for those looking for a satisfying yet not overwhelming meal. The medium steak sandwich is a customer favorite, with plenty of meat and a unique, unforgettable sauce. The restaurant's service is top-notch, with orders always being correct and food delivered hot. Located in Lopatcong Township, it is considered by some to be the best place to get a steak sandwich in the state of New Jersey. In addition to their delicious food, Joe's Steak Shop also offers homemade sauce and old-fashioned milkshakes made with Hershey ice cream.

The food at Joe's Steak Shop looks as good as it tastes, which is amazing. The service is impeccable, with the food made fresh to order and the staff being very nice. Customers enjoy the intimate dining space and appreciate the long history of the establishment. The small restaurant, with around 8 tables, has a classic sandwich shop atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of options, including chicken nuggets and fries served in a race car-shaped box, which is a hit with kids. Regulars love the delicious cheesesteaks and the refreshing root beer.

Joe's Steak Shop is a local legend, known for its excellent cheesesteaks and other New Jersey staples like Taylor Ham sandwiches and deep-fried ripper-style hot dogs. The cheesesteak is a regional specialty, featuring white American cheese and caramelized onions in a peppery tomato-based sauce, served on soft hoagie rolls. While some prefer a firmer roll, the overall quality of the ingredients and the well-seasoned, juicy steak make Joe's a standout. The restaurant also offers a variety of sides, including corn nuggets and pierogies, and hosts regular car shows, adding to the classic Americana atmosphere.

Their cheesesteak sliders are so good! I got the slider meal and it was the perfect amount of food! I would definitely recommend this place and will totally be back!

In the area and so, we decided to stop into the steak shop to order some food.
Thank you Sara for answering my questions and Red, for grilling the steak and preparing the food.
That special sauce, Joe’s red sauce is gold. It’s the juice that elevates the steak sandwich that heightens the taste buds and mine was HOT red so it was extra special. 🔥
And a shout out to Candace, thanks for working and participating in the business!
