Excellent experience. We were greeted when we entered. The gentleman taking our order was surprised it was our first time there. We knew what we wanted but he did make a couple suggestions on local favorites. We placed our order for the 6" Philly Cheese Steak Works- with onions, mushrooms, bell peppers and avocado and beverage. They have the fountain drinks so you can refill. The order was made fresh and was ready in about 5-8 minutes. The 6" sandwich looked bigger than a 6" and was filling. Fresh, hot and flavorful - be careful on the first bite! The bun was sturdy so it didn't fall apart while we ate the sandwich but not hard/dry or too much bread. The cheese/meat ratio was perfect. The veggies were grilled perfectly - not overcooked and mushy. Price was reasonable for the area and portion size.
