The 10 Best Cheesesteaks In Philly, Ranked

"When people think of cheesesteaks, they don’t always think of the Northeast (or Italian restaurants). But if you stop by this casual spot in a shopping center on Holme Ave., you’ll see a line of people waiting for one like it’s the hottest club in town. The signature here is the Don Cheech’s Steak, an ideal combination of thick-sliced ribeye, melty cooper sharp, and fried onions on a seeded roll. Although there may be a wait to get your hands on one, once you do, you might briefly mistake the Northeast as the center of the universe." - candis mclean, alison kessler
