Spouse just called to ask at 5:30pm if they had any steak left for steak sandwiches. Like last month, they said they ran out. What a joke. Notice how they didn't respond last time about this issue? Clearly, they don't care.

I actually like the cheessteaks.last Friday orded 2 drove from north syracuse to find out it would be another 30 minutes .I was told only 1 cook for 2 restaurants. I wish I was told that on the phone before wasting my gas.also was told I was being sent a gift card or something to rectify this problem. I provided my address and nothing came......

First impressions mean everything and we left because they ran out of steak. I wouldn't pay attention to people complaining about it being bland. Not EVERYTHING has to be popping with flavor and with the right use of condiments, you can flavor a bland steak sandwich properly. Just bad luck for both sides on a potentially bad night? Sorry, but, one thing I'm generally not too forgiving on is running out of product. This place has potential because there aren't many places to get such a variety of steak sandwiches. They might take a good hard look at this and think about how they can improve

04/26/2023I walked in just after 11am and ordered a to-go half cheesesteak combo that came with fries and a drink for $12. The sandwich wasn't cooked to order or hot. The meat had absolutely no flavor to it and was dry. The homemade cheese sauce was cold, off tasting, and the fries tasted off as well. I also found a hair in my sandwich!!! Worst cheesesteak sandwich I've ever had. I agree with other reviewers that the food here is awful. AVOID!

Went to Danny's for lunch today (12/10) and had a great meal. Ordered the half steak, fries and a drink combo, choosing a classic wiz wit. The food was delicious and came out very fast, and the employee working the register was very polite and friendly.

Having thought about it a bit, my previous review was probably a bit unfair. In Philly, we compared a new cheesesteak to our favorite places around town. In this case it would be like comparing a five guys burger to a ground filet mignon and ribeye burger from a fancy restaurant. The reality is, this is the best cheesesteak in Syracuse and the closest you will get to a true Philly cheesesteak. I would still rate it as average if it was located in Philly but I ate average steaks often also when I lived there. He definitely does the meat right. Although the onion rings were great, I still think they were very overpriced. I paid $1.00 per onion ring.

Excellent Sandwich! Ordered the Pizza Steak and was greeted with a cheesesteak loaded with a ton of quality shaved ribeye and pepperoni, perfect amount of sauce and cheese, and I believe the rolls were the classic Amoroso that all the places down in Philly serve. The actual restaurant was very clean and the cashier was extremely friendly as well. Highly recommend this place, I personally think Danny's has the best cheesesteaks in Syracuse!

I believe I’m being generous with a 3 star. I want to like them so bad. We dined in on Sunday afternoon 11/20. We couldn’t decide what I wanted so, we all ordered a little bit of everything. My basic whiz wit steak fell apart as soon as I picked it up and I had to eat it with a fork. The bread needs major help.The house made chips were pretty spicy, which I loved but we’re not advertised as spicy and my husband was disappointed he couldn’t eat them.The kid found a hair fried into his chicken tender; but the tenders were otherwise pretty good, crispy, and homemade/bartered.The young lady working the counter I believe was new since she could not answer any of our questions, but she was kind nonetheless.As a chicken wing connoisseur, I was super excited to try their “whole wings”. What I received were rubbery single wings with thin sauce that just fell off the chicken. The blue cheese served with it had a sour aftertaste. We all tried one and tossed the rest. I was sooo excited to try their unique concept, but was so so so disappointed ☹️My daughter offered a Caeser salad and added chicken. Her sale was served 10 minutes after we all got our meals. The same young lady working the register brought it and offered and excuse about trying to perfect the croutons in the fryer. Well, the croutons were wet and soggy with grease. We had to ask for dressing as the salad was not tossed as a caeser should be. The basket (same basket fries are served in) was too small to mix the salad and salad wound up all over the table.On a good noted, the curly fries were very good. Crispy, good flavor, and about identical to Arby’s. ?

I stopped in and being from Philly I am always a critic of steak sandwich’s outside of Philly. Well I ordered the chicken Utica greens sandwich and it was delicious. Loaded with shave chicken? The roll was soft and the Utica greens had a nice spice to them. I would highly recommend. Can’t wait to go back. You might want to give the inside more of a Philly feel with more pictures, team jerseys, and maybe Rocky playing on one of the monitors. Just an idea. Keep up the great workMark
We heard such great things about this place and I have to say that I was a bit disappointed with the food and the prices. The pizza steak was $12.99 and the chicken steak was $10.99, which wouldn't be bad if the sandwiches were a good size but they are so small. I would have to say that they are about 6 inches long. Most cheesesteaks that I have had are much larger and greasy. The cheesesteaks here, although small, seem fresh and not as greasy, which is good, but they could be bigger for the price. Two of us had one bottled drink each and one cheesesteak each, and the bill was $30. The prices are not practical for a daily lunch, and prepare to leave hungry unless you empty your wallet. We won't be back. We have been to Philly for cheesesteaks and Philly blows this place away a thousand times over! Even Gino's Steaks in North Syracuse is better than Danny's Steaks. The meat was bland and the cheese "whiz" was tasteless on the chicken steak. The only thing that you could taste on the pizza steak was the sauce, so disappointing. We waited 20 minutes for low quality food, and there was only 3 other people (with small orders) in the place. The restaurant is clean, which is a plus.

It was just okay, meat wasn't seasoned but tender and good beef, onions was raw not carmelized, cheese wiz didn't have any flavor ,I'll go with provolone if I come back. I been to two award winning steak places in Philadelphia and it doesn't even compare at all, just good unseasoned meat I didn't hear no metal chopping ! At all I asked the girl the chopping back there ,she didn't really say yes. I can't cosign yet , I'm a try one more time.

Best food my husband n i ate at Taste of Syr, Wiz with, only item we went back for twice, it was so delicious! I've lived many years in Philadelphia n eaten a lot of cheesesteaks there lol, from the well known to the moms n pops stores n this one rivals with the best of them. The generous amount of juicy tender beef was mixed well with wiz n onions on a soft but still sturdy roll. Took me back to food memories of hanging out on South st. on hot summer nights with my best college buds n then grabbing a whiz wit. Spoke to the owner n had to tell him he got it right, I've been looking for a Phila cheesesteak in Syr, n only found steak subs, good but not the same. Thank you for bringing a little bit of Philly to Syr!Will Danny's Steaks be at the NY State Fair? Please be there for a delicious option!

We went in Thursday around 5 to order 4 sandwiches and some wiz curly fries. We placed our order around 530. The wait was never told to us but we overheard others at 15 mins. Later we heard more clearly 5 0 mins. Fine, we go to run an errand and come back. When we returned people were getting upset about the wait. If they complained it seemed that their orders would skip to the front. all the understanding patrons were waiting extra times. We finally received our order around 720. We get home and two of the sandwich orders were wrong, no wiz and they were dry to the point of not being at all enjoyable. Then the wiz fries had no wiz. Tried calling Friday after lunchtime but never heard back. Another issue we saw was they were taking phone orders after every inperson. If you are so busy in person maybe stop taking phone orders.Overall this place has great potential but we are soured on the lack of service and attention to detail. Hopefully this gets figured out over the next couple weeks.

Good tasting philly. Unfortunately I ordered the Danny's chips and never got them w my sandwich unknown to me til I got home . The bread was decent but they only had the white where on the menu shows two other options. I waited a few weeks after they opened to try because I figured there would be a few kinks. I will give them another try seeing I bartend on Sundays in armory . A larger roll would be nice . Good luck with the new business.

Good tasting philly. Unfortunately I ordered the Danny's chips and never got them w my sandwich unknown to me til I got home . The bread was decent but they only had the white where on the menu shows two other options. I waited a few weeks after they opened to try because I figured there would be a few kinks. I will give them another try seeing I bartend on Sundays in armory . A larger roll would be nice . Good luck with the new business.
