| - Firstly, I have to mention that the only reason why gave this place a chance, is because I received an e-mail from Living Social at 1 something AM, and when I tried to purchase the deal at 5 AM, they sold out of the special. That's 113 vouchers in 4 hrs and in the wee hours of the morning. This had to be good.
So, after my oil change, I swung by on my way home, and here's what I picked up:
Philly steak with the works and provolone (not a fan of that whizz stuff)
Pierogi
Tasty Kakes
Peanut Chews
I was informed that all the ingredients are shipped from PA. I'm not expert enough to confirm that nor am I one who has the ability to compare one with a sandwich from back home (being born but not raised in Philly) but out of all the Philly cheesesteak places in Las Vegas, this place has the goods. They aren't skimpy with the meat either.
The people working there were great. They didn't rush me and answered all my questions to make sure they had my order right. While waiting for my food they even schooled me a little of my birthplace.
I've observed food service since the 80's and managed 3 restaurants myself over a period of 15 yrs and while it isn't the best service I have witnessed here in the valley, it is one of the best nowadays. When it comes to customer service, you'll find me to be very picky; my 90% negative reviews will show that. I have met only one waitress in Vegas/Henderson that deserved a 5 star within my 11 years here. When the food is great, 4 stars is what they will get. If service lacks, then stars retracts- and for Geri's, the service maintains until the next time I come in when I dine in.
