Philly takes its cheesesteaks very seriously.
More than a sandwich, they’re a civic icon, a tourist draw, a debate topic, a cultural obsession, a Michelin-approved delicacy and an acceptable dish for any meal.
While often imitated around the world, an authentic cheesesteak is rarely duplicated successfully outside Philadelphia.

A traditional cheesesteak — one word (and no need for “Philly” or “sandwich”) — consists of sliced or chopped ribeye beef, melted cheese and optional sautéed onions on a soft-but-crusty long roll (which is different from a hoagie roll).
Para muchos, el queso preferido es el “whiz” -salsa de queso fundido tipo cheddar, no queso en spray-, con el americano blanco y el provolone como alternativas admisibles. Los aderezos más comunes son ketchup, champiñones, mayonesa, pimientos dulces o pimientos italianos “long hots” (normalmente se evitan los pimientos morrones). Y la mayoría de los establecimientos ofrecen alternativas como filetes de pollo, filetes de pizza, filetes veganos o hoagies de cheesesteak.
A great steak can be found in fancy fine dining restaurants, if-you-know-you-know neighborhood pizzerias or corner stores, and every type of eatery in between. Scroll down for our guide to some of the most essential steaks in Philly, including the famous, the classics and the up-and-comers.

You may have heard the stories or seen the videos. At many spots in Philly, there’s a very specific, very Philly way to order a cheesesteak to keep the lines moving. So when that cheesesteak craving hits, first consider two critical questions before you get to the counter:
Una vez decidido, la cultura del cheesesteak Philly ofrece un lenguaje taquigráfico para transmitir su pedido. En primer lugar, pida el tipo de queso que desee, “whiz” o de otro tipo. A continuación, indique la cebolla que prefiere: “wit” significa con cebolla, y “witout”, sin cebolla.
Por ejemplo, si pides un “whiz wit”, te darán un filete con Cheez Whiz y cebolla a la plancha. Si pides un “witout americano”, te servirán un filete con americano blanco, sin cebolla. Y si pides una variante especial, como un bistec pizza o un hoagie cheesesteak, menciónalo primero, ya que suelen venir con opciones de ingredientes estándar.
Luego termina con “aquí” o “para llevar”. Y si están en sitios diferentes, pasa rápidamente del mostrador de pedidos a la caja registradora para dejar que pida el siguiente cliente.
Historia del Cheesesteak
El origen del cheesesteak se remonta a 1930, cuando, durante una fatídica hora del almuerzo, Pat Olivieri, vendedor de perritos calientes del South Philly, cocinó unos restos de carne en la parrilla de su puesto y los puso en un bollo. Un taxista que pasaba por allí olió algo delicioso, se asomó a la ventanilla y pidió el suyo.
La noticia de la creación no tardó en extenderse. Otros taxistas acudieron al vendedor solicitando sus propios bocadillos de filete. Poco después, Olivieri abrió una tienda permanente en la calle 9 y la avenida Passyunk -Pat's King of Steaks- para vender su invento a las masas.
Los bocadillos de filete llevaban cebolla asada desde el principio, pero ¿y el queso? Pasó otra década antes de que (según la leyenda) un gerente aburrido y hambriento de Pat's llamado “Cocky Joe” Lorenza echara un poco de provolone a la creación, y nació el cheesesteak.
Cheese Whiz was invented in 1952, and it didn’t take long for that to make it onto a cheesesteak as well. The popular chicken cheesesteak variation came along in the 1980s, most commonly attributed to Ishkabibble’s on South Street, creating an entirely new category of alternative cheesesteaks.
Fast forward to 2025, our beloved local classic hit the world stage when the Guía Michelin made its Philadelphia debut, recognizing three steak shops — Angelo’s Pizzeria, Dalessandro’s Steaks & Hoagies, and Del Rossi’s Cheesesteak & Pizza Co. — with its prestigious Bib Gourmand award.
While the national press likes to talk about that other rivalry (see below), real Philadelphians know the true across-the-street friendly cheesesteak feud is between Roxborough’s Filetes Dalessandro's y Chubby's Steaks.
Dalessandro’s — the Michelin-recognized Henry Avenue shop — has slung massive cheesesteaks with finely chopped ribeye and extra-chunky, hand-sliced sautéed onions at their shop since 1960.
Then in 1987, Chubby’s opened just 100 feet across the street, now standing toe-to-toe with its Northwest Philly competitor, serving a finer chopped steak — with a signature secret seasoning and easy on the whiz — at a diner counter with full bar and a (usually) shorter wait time.

The O.G. Pat’s is still owned by the legendary Olivieri family, whose eponymous patriarch invented the first steak sandwich in 1930 (see the intro for more).
Geno’s opened up across the pointed intersection in 1966, slinging thinly sliced rib-eye steak under a cacophony of neon, setting off the iconic rivalry between the open-24/7 crossroads competitors, drawing throngs to East Passyunk para probar la carne.

Una de las churrerías más antiguas de la ciudad, Cosmi's Deli has the look of a corner market — and the cheesesteak cred of a champ.
Dating back to 1932, this small South Philly stop has garnered praise for both its traditional steaks — with thin-sliced rib eye packed on rolls from famous Sarcone’s Bakery — and a lineup of specialty steaks like the Godfather Cheesesteak, Buffalo Chicken or spicy Diavolo, or the vegan cheesesteak.

Both spots offer the same menu, but the newer location between 5th Street and 6th Street (opened in 2014) offers plentiful seating compared to the circa-1979 walk-up window near 4th Street.
Other menu must-haves include Spanish fries (with hot peppers and onions), sweet potato cheese fries and the original Gremlin, a half-lemonade, half-grape-juice beverage.

Soy de Connecticut, pero en la universidad tenía amigos de Philly que siempre hablaban de que los cheesesteaks de Filadelfia no se parecían en nada a los de las cadenas de restaurantes o a los chopped chees de Nueva York.
When I moved here, my first true Philadelphia cheesesteak was from Joe’s Steaks + Soda Shop in Fishtown, with whiz and onions — so “whiz wit.” And it superado mis expectativas. ¡Empecé a recibirlos todos los fines de semana! (Era tan malo...)
I recently tried Angelo’s and Del Rossi’s, and I like theirs a lot, too. But Joe’s steaks are still my favorite — with Cooper Sharp and onions.

Para ser un sitio con “cerdo asado” en el nombre, este lugar ofrece un cheesesteak muy bueno. Aunque es famoso por su sándwich homónimo, Cerdo asado de John is perennially ranked among Philly’s top steak spots as well. Its secret weapon is a crusty hollowed-out Carangi’s Bakery seeded roll — and a strict no-whiz policy.
Opened in 1930, the low-slung luncheonette first grew its reputation as a favorite among South Philly dock workers but gained mainstream recognition over the last quarter-century, as well as Philly’s first “America’s Classics” honor from the Premios James Beard en 2006.
