We stopped at Forefathers for lunch this Saturday . This was our first visit, but we thought we give it a south Philly try coming from the Penna area. so yes I do know what a cheese steak should be.
It was good! Not great ! The place was busy and people were even sitting outside in the heat.
Even though it was packed the staff was friendly and efficient. The line moved pretty quick.
Our Original Phillys were messy and good.
Our negatives:
The size of the dining area. It was a bit small and crowded today.
The meat was per-cook it take away from the moisture and meat had a little burnt taste. You should make the sandwiches to order ... every order with fresh rib-eye meat "not the pre cook" stuff. keep the grill a little lower not burn the meat.
I will try this place again the future to see if anything changes.
The price for two cheese steak, 2-fries, 2 coke was $ 22.00 and change a little steep. The combo did not include the drinks.
