I ate here for the first time while waiting for the check in time for our house and I have to say this place was quite a find. Great cheesesteaks, fries, and bottled root beer. Very reasonable prices and also the food was ready much quicker than I expected. If you're going out for a nice meal in the evening... More

We visit the Outer Banks every year and decided to stay in Corolla for the time this year. Excellent choice confirmed once again when we stopped in for a quick dinner before movie. We had cheesesteaks, fries, and onion rings. Couldn't ask for better food or people. Very laid back and enjoyable atmosphere. Great value!!

Philly Steak Subs is BY FAR the best sandwiches on the Outer Banks. These are the real deal Phiily cheesesteaks complete with the bread that is from Philadephia. The fries are to die for and the small is more than enough for two people. They know how to cook oinion rings; the best mix of crunchy coating with a blast... More

I was STARVING. I was literally ready to chew my own arm off. I pulled into the Monteray Shopping center knowing that TimBuck II didn't have many choices in the way of fast, value priced food. Went around and looked at menus in this center. Didn't feel like the $12 guacamole at the Mexi place would do. Didn't feel like... More

Almost out of curiosity, our group of six adults thought we would at least give the place a try. What a very pleasant surprise! Our sandwiches came in either 7" or 12" lengths and were stuffed with wonderfully prepared shaved steak, cheese and grilled onions. The owners make it very clear with a large sign on the wall that "standard"... More

Being a Philly native I have traveled the entire country looking for "real" Philly cheesesteaks and RARELY have found the genuine article outside of the Philly area. This place is the exception. A must do if you like cheesesteaks and all of the other food is very tasty. Walk in, order your food, drink a quick rolling rock and then... More

Great cheesesteaks, Philly decorating. I always worry about cheesesteaks, but these were the real thing.
