the original steaks & hoagies

omg!  want to ruin your diet? i'm a firsttimeoffender today!  never been here and ultimate cheese steak was amazing!  lots of steak and melty cheese with wonderful peppers.  i will be back!

amazing!!!. today was my firsttimegoing to the original steaks & hoagies and all i have to say is wow! i ordered a cheese steak with provolone, mushrooms, hot peppers, and mayo. it was amazing and it was the best cheese steak that i have ever eaten. now i don't have to go all the way to philly to get an authentic philly cheese steak lol. i also ordered fries and they were amazing as well. the owner bill fromholzer jr. (a.k.a. billy from philly) and his father were two of the nicest people you will ever meet and that means a lot to me because i have been to a lot of places where the owner and staff weren't very nice! not to mention i am a dallas cowboys fan and they still were nice to me lol :) i will definitely go back again!!

matter of opinion. that's funny brian because no other place that i know of in cleveland chops up the meat into bits. i find it ludicrous that you say "we in cleveland" like you're speaking for everybody. how presumptuous of you! just because you like it, doesn't mean everyone else does. lasttimei checked this was america and everyone is entitled to their opinion. to choose someone's review and say they have a "bad palate" is juvenile and stupid. i think you need to realize the definition of a "review."

i'm not uninformed as you say i am. osh - i got your rebuttal e-mail about my review:

i think there is strong disagreement about the chopping up of the steak. see below website:

btw - the above link site belongs to the family that invented the cheesesteak and they have in caps that you do not chop up the meat! i think you lose this argument based on this alone but...
i've also been to philly and had many cheesesteaks so i am not uninformed as you say. your way is not the traditional way.
if you can't take the criticism, get out of the kitchen.

totally overrated. totally overrated. the philly cheesesteak was horrible. the meat was chopped into little bits...looked like mush. you couldn't even taste the meat. the onions had no taste.
the sandwich dripped with grease and was watery.
the only good part about the sandwich was the bun and cheez whiz. we're not going back.

the best around. the original steak and hoagies is all that and then some... i heard about this place from co-workers, and believe me, it did not dissapoint. my wife and i both got combos and yes there was a little wait.... but it was lunchtime! and the wait was well worth it ! the best steak philly we've ever had ! fresh bread, and toppings, better than anywhere else in the cleveland area. i've been telling people to check this place out ever since. i love this place and will be back as much as possible.... two thumbs up guys !

yum. i'm not from philly and don't know what constitutes 'authentic' there but these are some great sandwiches. sorry i waited months to try the place out. worst you can say about them is that there's some labor andtimeinvolved in making the sandwich fresh to your specs. call your order in if you're impatient. lots of meat, and not a drippy greasy mess like the standard cheesesteak you get anywhere else around here. your choice of cheeses and garnishes make for individually-tailored deliciousness. bay fries are good too.

like philly.. i've been to philly and had my share of the "famous" cheesesteaks that city has to offer. the original steaks & hoagies in twinsburg comes as close to the original (and in some cases better) as can be believed. their rolls are imported from philly (amorosa), they use real rib-eye for the meat, and of course cheezwiz is available (applied on the bun, not on top). i have to give the pork a try nexttimealthough it is not always available.
