Philly's BEST CHEESESTEAK? Angelo's Pizzeria Review

  • Out of all the best cheesesteaks in Philly, such as Dalessandro's, John's Roast Pork, and Ishkabibble's just to name a few, Angelo's Pizzeria is being mentioned more and more as the best cheesesteak in Philadelphia. Angelo's, as its name suggests, is known for its pizzas. But it's also known for excellent Philly cheesesteaks with melty and creamy Cooper Sharp cheese. The place is takeout-only, with no seating on premises. Despite this, the line is literally down the street and around the block, even in bad weather! People commonly wait over an hour just to get their hands on one of their famous cheesesteaks.
    Is Angelo's Pizza Philadelphia's best cheesesteak? I've had many great cheesesteaks in Philly throughout the years, having grown up in the suburban Philly area in South Jersey. I've had Campo's, Pat's and Geno's of course, and Sonny's as well. If so many people say Angelo's is the best cheesesteak in town though, you know I cannot resist trying it. I drove all the way down from North Jersey and made a whole trip out of it just to try it!

    I'm from NYC and now live in PA; Angelo's Cheesesteak definitely on point. i know there a couple others in the area that are also good but I feel the sesame bread and cooper sharp make it a bit more unique and def delicious. A must if you are doing cheesesteak runs in Philly. The pizza, idk i found it to be really good. Don't sleep on it it really is a good pizza pie, think Umberto's of New Hyde Park brick oven but with a slight dif taste of sauce. worth the trip to get these two items there.

    I was just there on Sunday (was in Philly for the weekend from north NJ as well). Line was crazy and the wait for the cheesesteak was an hour. One of the girls behind the counter actually told us to set a timer and just come back (they keep your sandwich in a warmer when it is done). I also got cooper sharp with fried onions and it was amazing! Pro tip: if you walk down the block towards what I guess may be part of Little Italy, there are some places with open air seating where you can eat. You will definitely need to sit. Not advisable to try and eat this standing!

    • @josephdover198
      @josephdover198 Před měsícem

      Geno's has to be one of the absolute worst. They don't cut their steak at all. It's just sliced and not even thinly sliced at that. Pat's at least chops their steak. Both are nowhere near as good as other places. Geno's looks like something I would try feeding to a stray dog if I hadn't already seen how it doesn't look the least bit appetizing.

    I've eaten at maybe at a dozen cheese steak joints in Philly, and to me, Angelo's blows them all away. The quality of the bread and the use of cooper sharp takes it to the next level. I usually have it with a roasted long hot, which adds a whole other smoky, spicy dimension. Just kind of pissed that it's now "discovered" and will now have to endure that line.

    That's actually good weather to me. It's 52C in asia rn. The sewer water is boiling hot. I'm getting heat cramps on my hands & knees. And my new sneakers' sole separated from the main shoe after 2 hours of walking-- at night. The wind, if there's any, is pretty hot. The tap water almost scalded me. Drinking water ain't gonna cut it. And it's gonna get hotter in May. It's like hell everyday. 😭

    I'm sure it's great but not worth the wait time. Try Lillo's in Hainesport NJ. I hear that's great. same style b probably use the same bread.
