The heavy set bar tender with the glasses, dark hair and a lot of tattoos has a very nasty attitude.
Ordered cheesesteak spring rolls and had a nasty demeanor and attitude. I guess she decided that it was appropriate to chit chat with her colleague, then remember that she needed to get my change, and thennn 10 min later when i politely ask her if i can have my change so i may wait in my car, she becomes very nasty, short, and rude with her replies to me.
I wont come back her to this location solely bc of her nasty attitude and demeanor.
The right thing to do would have been to be polite about making me wait opposed to being entitled as if what she was doing was the right thing to do to a customer.
Poor service. Terrible. Wasnt even busy so cant use that excuse either.
If you see this bartender, avoid her at all cost or choose one of the other locations.

I got a Philly cheesesteak to go. When I got home i saw there was no cheese in it at all. I tried to eat it anyway and it was so disgusting and inedible I thew it in the garbage.
Worst place to order cheesetake in Manhattan don’t loose your money or time if you order via Uber Eats they will make you wait more than an hour give cheap excuse to your delivery person and be rude to you on the phone. The bar is even worse as they’re ultra racists.

We just came back from this place and don’t recommend it at all!
The blonde waitress was very rude when my boyfriend asked a simple question. She never asked us if everything was okay, but of course she did with the rest of the customers. We didn’t do anything that could’ve provoked this kind of behavior.
Only walking around with an annoyed face complaining about her bad knee.
Here’s a tip: don’t work at a bar with stairs.
Maybe she noticed that we aren’t from the US and that’s why we became second place.
We ordered a mojito and chicken wings with mild buffalo sauce but it came without the sauce.
We payed $38 for 1(!) mojito and around 10 wings!!
The tip was included without our permission. They definitely didn’t deserve the tip.
What a waste of money and time. We are not coming back to this scam place.

I am trying to place a group order here I call the number it’s a automated message telling me to go to there website I go on the website try 3 times to check out can not says error call resturant, I call another 3 times and same automated message hoping for a answer. Will just get lunch for me and my staff else where.
I walk by this place all the time and it's always packed plus great reviews. So I finally gave it a try. There was a touch screen computer to order food to go. I ordered a cheese steak with fried onions, banana peppers, provolone and a brownie on the side. I had pint of beer while I waited but had to ask for a new glass because my glass smelled and tasted like soap. My hoogie didn't have any fried onions. Hardly any cheese and the steak was very chewy. Honestly the only thing I liked was the brownie. A very good brownie, a little crunchy on the outside but fudgy in the middle and not too sweet.
I was highly disappointed by my cheesesteak !!

Ordered via UberEATS - the cheese steak was way too salty, the pretzel was underbaked, the fries soggy (but otherwise ok). It's difficult to grasp why so many people appreciate this place for the food...

Good sports bar. Lots of TVs and sound on for the games. Food a bit hit or miss. Philly bar so Philly fare. Pretzels that taste just like the pretzel factory which I really enjoy. Their wings just ok for me, too soggy. Their cheesesteaks are good but they do themselves a disservice wrapping them up the way they do. Makes the bread too soggy.

We were looking for a sports bar that broadcasts NFL games and after some research we came across this place. The photos that had already been posted suggested that it was an "Eagles-friendly" bar, which I, as an Eagles fan, really liked. The food looked great too and as luck would have it, it was only a 5-minute walk from our hotel. We couldn't make a reservation, so we arrived in good time before the game started, dressed up in Eagles gear, and got a great seat at the bar. The ambience is more than worthy of a cool sports bar. The walls are decorated with various NFL paraphernalia (Eagles and Penn State), but hockey and baseball fans are not left out either. The service was TOP, the atmosphere was great and the food - we didn't have better burgers (and fries) during our whole NYC trip. And unbelievably, at really reasonable prices. We were so impressed that we came back twice more afterwards. Rating: Highly recommended, we will definitely come back here when we get the chance to visit NY again! Keep it up guys!

Old City is a fantastic spot with fresh, delicious food and a great selection of beers! ? The atmosphere is always inviting, and the bartender, Lana, truly makes the experience even better with her friendly and attentive service. Highly recommend stopping by for a great meal and drinks!
