What People Are Saying About Dalessandro's Steaks

In Short – While Pat's and Geno's slug it out on their corners, the competition comes from Roxborough in the form of a simple little spot at the top of Walnut Lane. The rolls are chewy with a freshness directly related to the amount of customer activity. It's the beef cooked on the fat-seasoned grill that makes the steaks here savory. Toppedwith melted American, the sandwiches ooze cholesterol-laden goodness that will surely cure what ails you.

Great steaks
by JGHawley
You walk in and you can hear the steak sizzling. The smell just gets your stomache rumbling.
Belly up to the counter and get your order in quickly. Wait time is normal unless its packed. I usually go after the lunch crowd so I can take my time.
Rolls are fresh and high quality, steak is salted perfectly. Not too much cheese.
Its a great steak because all the ingredients are top notch, the flavors are right and it doesnt sit in your stomache like a rock when you're done with it.
- Pros: Great steak and old school lunch counter
- Cons: none

BEST CHEESESTEAKS EVER
by sdffa11
dalessandros puts cr@ck in their cheesesteaks which is why they keep me coming back for more. i moved away from philly but i still dream of ordering 2 cheesesteaks with sauce and onions with lots of red cherry peppers on the side.
- Pros: great bread, unbeatable meat, sauce and onion toppings are awesome, get peppers
- Cons: you have to wait even when you call ahead.
