"Many point to John's cheesesteak as the very best in Philadelphia. The sandwich is heavy with seasoned beef cooked to order — no piles of soggy meat in sight. And the cheese? Sharp provolone works surprisingly well. John’s Roast Pork might not have invented the cheesesteak and, given the name, might not have even sold it originally, but one thing is for certain: This place has pretty much perfected the sandwich. Call for pickup." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
