| - I have been going here for a few years now; I wish I found out about this the day I was born.
Service:
I don't think it gets much more personal than this. They care about you -- the customer. The whole Casella family is amazing (they run the joint).
Food:
Their food is insane.
What I recommend:
Chicken Salad - I get this on the wheat roll with tomato and lettuce
Italian - leave it the way it comes on a white roll. It has some provolone, two meats, tomatoes, lettuce, oil/vinegar dressing, and some oregano -- trust me - leave it alone!
Steak w/ the works - so when I first heard of this "steak with the works" -- I was like "Are you serious? Why the hell would I want to put your delicious home made marinara sauce on a cheese steak? That's poppycock!"
(rant/tangent)
Listen to them. They know what they're talking about. You want a freaking cheese steak in Arizona? Well get it from someone that lived in Philly and decided to grace us with his presence back 33 years ago and say "HEY -- This! Is a cheese steak." (angels ahhh ahhh ahhhhh ahhhh). Which reminds me - they've been in the same neighborhood spot for over 33 years. Family owned.
Anyways, so cheese steak, I would get extra cheese, because well, I love cheese. You can order this to go and eat it at home, but I would rather eat it in the car, then let this baby depreciate. It is so damn good. GET IT
So they also have sides, pasta salad, bomb, fresh made lemon aid and iced tea (Arnold Palmer people!)
Cannolis - o wow - freshly piped - insane - delicious things
Pizzelles -- made fresh by a lovely lady that you'll usually find behind the counter! Chocolate, Regular flavor, I believe lemon. Bomb -- wow oh wow!
Bread: white or wheat roll - baked fresh by a local bakery
I have coined the term: "So good, it's worth the drive"
I haven't been here in about two months, I've been quite busy, but am going to make it this Saturday for the people I manage. Free lunch for the bunch! (I'm paying)
There is only one Casellas -- you must go here. You must try it. If you don't like it -- email me and I will refund you. I will also call you a moron in the process.
Oh and prices, jesus is it cheap!
