    Pat's is fine. It's not the best, but it's fine. Espcecially at 3 in the morning after the bar. Always get the Drunk Combo Meal - Mushroom Heart Attack 'Wit, Cherry Coke, and cheese fries. Oh yeah.

    Funny thing is, the Roasted Italian Pork sandwich is 100 times better than the cheesesteaks at Tony Lukes. ;)

    anybody catch The Goldbergs last night?   Murray and the grandfather were having a discussion as to the best cheesesteak in philly.  One said Pat's, the other said Geno's.  Then Barry came in said he knew the best place to get one.  Murray said if it's Jim's you don't have a home.  Barry eventually said it was in New Jersey at a place called Donkey's Place in Camden, NJ. So there ya have it.

    So happy this thread exists! Cheesesteaks are one of my favorite foods, and the best ones really are in Philly, nothing I’ve had here in western PA or anywhere else even comes close. 

    I’ve tried 10 places in Philly so far, here’s my list:

    1. Dalessandro's 

    2. John's Roast Pork

    3. Gooey Looie's

    4. Cosmi's Deli

    5. Joe's Steak & Soda Shop

    6. Ishkabibble's 

    7. Chubby's Steaks

    8. Jim's Steaks South Street

    9. Pat's King of Steaks

    10. Geno's Steaks


    Next places I want to try:

    Max’s (heard this is in a shady part of town, is this true?)

    Phillips

    Sonny’s 

    Steve’s 

    Barry’s

    A bunch I haven't been to yet.  Nice list.
    You are not willing to consider Donkey's?  I have heard good things!

    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Sure I am! I’ve read about it before and it looks great. Only problem is I don’t get to Philly much, maybe twice a year, and I’m usually only there for a day or two, so I feel like making the trip to Jersey would pretty much wipe out a day, but I honestly have no idea.

    Right accross the river.  You can see Philly from there   :)

    Lol I just mapped it and it’s a 22 minute drive from the hotel we usually stay at *slaps forehead* we’ve drove twice as long as that to go to some places. It may have moved to #1 on the list now.
