The Best Cheesesteaks in Philadelphia | Bon Appétit
"A South Philly institution established in 1930 and honored as a James Beard 'American Classic,' famous for the 'Ultimate' cheesesteak packed with 12 ounces of juicy, well‑seasoned steak and choice of American or provolone tucked into a seeded Carangi roll that soaks up juices while providing a pleasant crust; cheese is well integrated throughout, there are inventive specialty sandwiches (like a Steak Italiano and a cheesesteak hoagie), fried long hots add heat, and the shop typically closes early and operates on a cash‑only basis." - ByKae Lani Palmisano
