| - Fun place, friendly service, great food! Just found this place and what caught my eye was their heavy promotion of their Philly Cheese Steaks. Growing up in Niagara Falls, that city had the best Philly Steaks, otherwise known there as the 'steak sub'. Never been able to find a good Philly steak outside of Niagara since I left (except in New York City, they were awesome there).
Anyway, tried the Philly Steak at Retro Burger and it was awesome! Still not as good as what you can get in Niagara, but by far the best I have been able to find so far. I tweaked the sandwich a little bit... asked for no hot sauce (normally they add mild, medium or hot), asked for hot peppers instead of green peppers. The rest of the sandwich had fried onions, mushrooms, cheese, toasted bun. It was great! Next time I go I'll also add diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce. Then the sandwich will be complete and as close to Niagara's version as I can get, for now...
Fries, onion rings and the atmosphere all great as well... enjoy!
Here's my perfect Philly Steak from RetroBurger...
- Double Cheese
- Fried Onions
- Fried Hot Peppers
- Salt and pepper while frying the meat
(See my review on Pete's Big Bite, has even better Philly Steaks!)
