Seriously huge subs!! This is what cheese steaks are supposed to taste like!! So hard to find a great sub shop, so skip the rest because you just found the best.

One of the best cheesesteaks ever. Absolutely the real thing. If you go to the counter and ask the person for a “whiz wit”, and they look at you funny, your a dead man. I lived in Philly for 47 years, and I’m here to tell you that the steaks here are as good as any, and better by far than Tony Luke’s, Pat’s, or Gino’s. Which are the big three. Five stars.

Chicken Parmesan sub was on point. Full of tender chicken, flavorful sauce, and the roll was toasted perfect. I'd recommend them for hot subs.
As far as cold subs, they have the right type of roll, but otherwise lacking on execution. The turkey was better quality than some places, but is too pink for my liking. (I like Boars Head Oven Roasted Turkey) The veggie toppings were very lacking, very little coarse chopped lettuce, 4 very thin slices of unripe tomatoes, the onions are chopped too large, and instead of the hot peppers I asked for, they use banana peppers. (to be fair they're not the only place that does this, but hot peppers should be crushed hot peppers, or sliced cherry peppers) I asked for oil/vinegar/oregano, and there was no oil or oregano and very few drops of generic red wine vinegar. This is not how you dress a sub, let alone a "philly hoagie".
- - To me, the food is what's important, the following is nitpicky. Very gruff on the phone, I suppose to some might be charming; however, both employees were extremely friendly and personable in person. I'd personally not to scare away new customers before I get them in the door. Inside the place is very dank, dark and coated in decades old grease. I understand these times might be hard financially to do a remodel, but cleaning doesn't cost much. Everything needs steam cleaning, and realistically needs all new ceiling tiles, walls scrubbed and some additional lighting.

Love the staff and food. The only downside is lately they are very rarely open.

I drove out of Ocean City to try this place and the food was worthy of the trip. I love cheesesteaks. So I would definitely be coming back! I only half the Cheesesteak made it out of the parking lot!🤣
