Reviews Summary

Customers rave about the authentic cheesesteaks and outstanding hand-cut fries, often calling them the best in town. The friendly service and reasonable prices also contribute to a positive dining experience, though some find certain unique sandwiches average in flavor.

"This is about the only place in Springfield that you can get a true Chicago Italian style beef. Next time I go though I will be ordering double meat. My wife had a cheeseburger and we had the hand-cut fries which were very good. I would recommend this eatery in to anybody who was looking looking for Good sandwiches."

Frank Raimann

"Best fries in town, probably the state. If there are better I want to try them. Great variety, quality is always top notch."

Terrance Stewart

"I was super excited to try this place, as the photos looked amazing. The overall experience was kind of a let down.

The staff seemed to be kind of annoyed about something so that was off putting from the start.
There were no recommendations of any kind, as a new customer I would’ve liked to had some kind of knowledge on what was most popular or their best seller! I would’ve tried it!

With that being said, I settled for the first thing on the menu, which I assumed was one of the classics, (Chicago Philly) which had lettuce, tomato, onion, American cheese with oil and vinegar.
At first the sandwich was pretty dry, I almost had to ask for some mayo or something to put on it, but then I got towards the middle and it turned out to be ok. The overall presentation of the sandwich was good, decently sized. The seasoning on the meat and the American cheese kind of resembled a hamburger.

I think some chipotle mayo or some kind of sauce would take this sandwich to the next level.
The overall flavor of this sandwich was pretty average, so I probably wouldn’t order this one again.

Jersey mikes is better all around 😬"
