The Best Restaurants In North Philly - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Max’s at Broad and Erie has a massive bold neon sign out front, and if you somehow happen to miss that, the scent of sizzling beef will lure you inside. And it's the foot-long sandwiches with gooey provolone that will keep you coming back. A cheesesteak here only costs $11, and while they have a few options like pepper steaks, chicken, and mushrooms, there’s nothing better than the version loaded with onions and tangy pickles. These things have so much meat, you’ll just have to assume the bread is somewhere in the pile. They're also open until 1am on weekdays and 2am on the weekends, so this is a good move after a night at Lou & Choo's or Clock Bar." - candis mclean
