no, these aren't authentic philly-style cheesesteaks (nor are they meant to be), but they're good nonetheless, especially if you judge them based solely on taste and not on authenticity. when they're freshly-made (a rarity these days, unless you go early), they're incredibly delicious--i ate a bunch of them when the place first opened in march. unfortunately, in recent months the owner has given to making the sandwiches in advance and keep them warm in the oven, which makes them ever-so-slightly soggy...while they're still good, they don't quite have that *oomph* that a freshly-made one does. still, for $4 you can't complain, especially if you throw your authenticity hangups out the window. try coming here before noon--that way, you'll have a better chance of scoring a freshly-made sandwich while beating the lunch rush.
Pros: quick and cheap, good and different, amazing when fresh
Cons: premade, no substitutions
