I don't know what a Philly Cheesesteak or American Cheese Steak is supposed to taste like, so here's my first impression.....meh.
I ordered a large New Yorkder for $12 (tax and tip $15 and change) so portion was good, I suppose. The ingredients were fresh, and the quality of the beef was good, nice mix fat and lean, cooked perfectly. So what could possibly make me say my first experience was "meh"? Well, the thing was totally lacking in the flavour department....is it supposed to be bland? I added chili sauce, and it improved slightly. I added salt, and it improved tremendously. The beef on it's own had very little flavour and the whole thing relied on the garlic sauce a little too much.
The service from the cashier was less than stellar. She had no compassion for someone's first visit and treated me as if I were from a leper colony or something when I asked her what her recommendation was.
Now about the atmosphere - tries to pass itself off as a trendy place with lots of stainless steel and brick, but it still didn't make the food taste better. And if you're looking to have a conversation with your meal partner, go elsewhere because they really pounded the music on the day I went.
Needless to say, I will probably not return.
