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.

Now this is a cheesesteak!

by HockeyFan16

Yes, the place looks like a hole in the wall. The seating is horrible, the parking is not much better. But who cares! When it comes to the cheesesteak itself, there is no place in Philadelphia (and therefore, the world) that has a better one. Words can not describe the taste - you just have to eat one to know that you are in cheesesteak heaven! Add the onions, forget the sauce, and just sit back and enjoy! You will probably want to order a 2nd one!

• Pros: The best cheesesteak in Philadelphia (and therefore, the world)!
• Cons: The place lloks like a dump

Best in Philly

by ljallen

Forget Pat's and Geno's.They're not even close. I grew up eating "Deli's" and have missed them since I moved to the burbs. I stopped there on the way home from the Phillies parade with 4 friends, 1 veteran Deli's eater and 3 rookies. It was everything I remembered. Chopped light, perfect roll. All 3 rookies ate more than usual. I have to get back more often

• Pros: Best cheesesteak in Philly
• Cons: Parking tough

Best cheesesteak ever

by veter1972

I eat at Dalessandro's four times last week.

The place is still old but the food is more than great. The cheesesteaks are delicious, the meat is fatless and the service is friendly and fast. The parking is easy all day long on the street.

I will go there again the next time I visit Philly

Consistently delivers a FANTASTIC cheesesteak!

by HotforGoodFood

I work nearby and lunch out quite a bit. When the sun is high, I hunger for MEAT!!!!! YUMMY MEAT!!...really Yummy MOUTHWATERING soft bread.

I've tried all the delis and steakhouse in a 5 mile radius in search for my quest. Without a doubt, D'Alessandros quenches my red meat cravings... time and time again.

• Pros: Quality meat. Friendly staff.
• Cons: Nothing I can think of!

Dalessandro's Downhill

by FcukDalessandros

Dale's use to be the best cheesesteaks in Philly (when it was family owned). Ever since St. Pats day Dale's was sold out of the family. It is now run by Greeks who are apparently cheep. The meat is fatty and the sauce is sub-par. If you go after 10PM many nights the roles are hard and sometimes even cold. Many of the original faces are now gone and have been replaced by mexicans (nothing against mexicans but its just not dalessandro's). RIP Dalessandro's, I am now starting a new life at Chubby's.

• Cons: Much grissle in meat, not the same after it was sold.

I've tried them all since moving to Philly 5 years ago and without a doubt, hands down Dalessandro's is the best!

• Pros: Great Cheesesteak
• Cons: Cash only
