    I think I've mentioned it before but Jersey Mike's makes a killer cheese steak.  
    Then I think Todd Zolecki has a cheesesteak in Milwaukee that would pique your interest. Would also say, yes, absolutely go for the Aramark cheesesteak. This will be gourmet dining if this is your wheelhouse.

    This bartender in Seaside Park is telling me about some place on the Seaside Heights boardwalk or something "it's the best cheesesteak you'll ever have" - my friend's like "he's from Philly" while I have a stone cold stare going. Where do these people get off?!?

    Ha ha.  Jersey mike s cheesesteaks are legit.  They aren’t  Philly level but it s the best I have within a 15 mile radius.  Every pizzeria  cheesesteak we ve ordered tastes like dog shit.  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Good to know but my kids want cheese steaks, it's their thing lol.

    I always got the Big Kahuna at Jersey Mike's and thought it was pretty good.

    Penn Station is the best cheesesteak I have ever had.  Obviously a chain but good stuff.

    Please remember that I'm nowhere near Philly.  Penn Station is the best I've got.

    I do stand by my Jersey mike s opinion.  If you aren’t located in Philly give it a try.

    Subway isn't horrible.  Definitely better than anything that has Cheese Whiz on it.

    A different opinion -- Subway is awful.  Not the steak, at least I cannot comment on that as I never had one there.  Their sandwiches, in general, are a crime against sandwich humanity.
    :lol:  This has nothing to do with living in the Philly area -- although since I moved here back in 2012 I gained a new appreciation of the level to which the sandwich game can be raised to.  I thought the same thing living in CA for 20 years.  Subway was an option only if there was no other option.
    [And...I make money off from Subway as they are a client of one of our partners.  :lol:  I still feel the same way.]

    Working at the food court in the mall as a 15 year old, we would always barter food and Great Steak and Potato was heavy in the rotation. Was damn good at the time. Probably lands in the Subway/ Jersey Mike’s category today.

    Subway is some of the foulest food I've ever tasted.

    If you aren't in/around Philly just don't get a cheesesteak. Get something they can cook where you are.

    They call their hoagie's subs. I will respectfully decline. I'll take a beer though.
