The cheesesteak sandwiches at South Philly are by far the best in the area, and believe me, we've sampled them all! The steak is quality meat, the cheese is not cheese wiz, and the rolls are always fresh and delicious. Unfortunately I can't tell you how any of the other food is because we always gravitate to the cheesesteak sandwich.... More

Don't kill the cook!!!!....... but if you wanted to take a swipe at the waitresses it wouldn't break my heart. Ladies, it's not my fault it's season down here in beautiful Bradenton and it's also NOT my fault you didn't staff your establishment to handle the increase in customers. My wife and I just wanted a good cheesesteak and thanks... More

Welcome to a taste of Philadelphia in SW Florida. My best friend and I were ravished after a longtime not eating and he wanted a Philly cheese steak, something I have never had until today January 26,2013. WOW have I been missing out big time! We arrived at 3pm and decided to eat outside since the weather was so nice... More

After a rocky start (we came in behind another couple and the place was busy) we had an enjoyable meal. There was nothing to indicate seating yourself or take out counter and we were left standing there until we finally spoke up. A greeting or some acknowledgement would have been nice, and easy enough as the place is a small... More

We went here on a one-night visit to the area, based on the awesome reviews. They were "right on"---these cheesesteaks were delicious! The cheese is cooked into the meat, but you can really taste it. The waitress let us substitute sweet green peppers for the hot red ones. The service was fast & friendly, & we split a small sundae... More

Arrived for dinner party of 3. All ordered 6 inch philly steak and cheese. Best around and would have to say I have not had a better steak and cheese anywhere else. Service was excellent and we will return.

I grew up in PA and I have to say that these guys are almost better than the real thing. I have not had a bad meal here. Staff are always friendly even if I have a Steelers shirt on. A+++

Local-looking, compact restaurant, but they have the right flavor and consistancy for a true Philly Cheesesteak! Meat was a tad stringy, but I sort of remember it always was back in the "olden days." Rolls were fresh with that little bit of corn meal falling off onto your plates. This little restaurant has an amazingly long menu -- something for... More

While in Philly,PA this summer we went to several "famous" cheese steak restaurants and after gaining several pounds, when all was said and done, we still voted South Philly the best by a mile!
