People will complain about these cheesesteaks then go get a Dalessandro's dry as fuck steak and feel hip and cool.

Actually a bunch of places that are considered good on here that are just meat loaded bread that are dry as hell.

*Not saying Geno or Pat are the best but def serviceable (They aint dry bricks of meat)

not enough people admit this. 24 hrs, relatively central location and the steak is fine.

Hot take: Pat’s is serviceable if you’re out late or need food in your stomach after the bars close. Not to be snobby, but Geno’s is just not good at all.

Lukewarm take: The steak-to-cheese ratio at Dalessandro's makes for a near-inedible brick with provolone, but is excellent if you get American cheese and some toppings.

Dry steaks are a travesty. Joes on Girard is the same. What a bad sandwich.

Joes depends who cooking. Maybe like a 50/50 split.

Better chance mid day to get a pretty good one.

Other times its sad whimpy job.

Exactly this. The steaks I've had there have ranged from like a 2/10 to 7/10. Can be good, but not reliably.

I’ve gone Friday night and figured I’d give em another chance for lunch. Both dry. No bigs there are other good spots

Dry as fuck? Dalessandros was pretty good when I had it for the first time, better than Pats and Genos hands down

Can’t say about Jim’s south street though since it burned down a week after I moved here and never got to try it

Dalessandros was better a while ago.

Pretty bad now.
