The Block has hands down the best Philly I’ve ever had. For 15 years on and off it’s the only thing I crave from downtown. I’m about due for one!

Winner on the Ruben on rye. Great flavors great sandwich, nice guy. Will come back and try a cheesesteak but the Ruben is great. Prices are normal $14 ruben and $10, $12 and $16 I think on cheesesteak
Food cart owner was pleasant and there are tables around where you can eat. Good find and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

BEST cheesesteak I’ve ever had! The person cooking and serving was kind enough to cut the sandwich in half without even asking since I was sharing with my partner. Will DEFINITELY be back!

Most excellent sandwich! The bread holds the heaping amounts of steak, peppers, mushrooms and cheese without getting soggy. The steak is tender and these guys know what they are doing! No more trips to philly (or Jersey Mikes) for me. Im jumping on a Max train for my next steak fix! Awesome value, taste, and service. Thank you, I'll be back very soon.

Hands down the absolute best cheesesteak!!!! Simple, just meat and cheese and added a little bbq sauce and ate the entire thing. I got the small and was shocked at how big it was, and still ate it all. Wanted to stop but couldn’t! The price is on point too! Highly recommend!!!

I ordered a large cheesesteak on uber eats, and it was actually LARGE. A delicious soft roll overflowing with delicious meaty filling. I’m glad I ate it at home because I don’t know how I would have managed it in public. It was really delicious and an incredible value.

This is actually a 4.8 rating. Here's the deal, it's a really tasty sandwich. The service was first-rate and had a wonderful conversation with the owner (I think he was anyway), and the atmosphere? Itz's a food truck.... rock on! They use white American, which is legit and the fried onions, mushrooms, and peppers melded nicely with the well seasoned and cooked steak. The only beef (haha) I have is with the roll. It he can get a roll that is a little closer in the crusty outside, chewy inside texture that Philly rolls are known for, this would be a slam dunk. That said, if I ever come back to Portland again, I will definitely partake again. Keep up the great work at The Block!

Worth it!!
Possibly the best Philly cheesesteak in town. Grilled green and red peppers, onions, mushrooms, delicious beef and classic cheese sauce. Bread was perfect too.
Got the large, and definitely got my moneys worth- no way I was going to be able to make the same sandwich at home for less.
