I really didn't enjoy their cheese steak mainly because it was so greasy. A good cheese steak shouldn't be as greasy as 99 miles version. ORyan,

I enjoyed it alot, but this was my first time having a cheesesteak in years so i have nothing to compare it against. The only thing that annoys me is how greasy cheesesteaks are. Grease helps the flavor but when i can almost have grease dripping down my finger it a bit much. So i tried the 99 miles to Philly cheesesteak whit wiz.

Russian optional. And they have new kick-ass potato pancakes, almost too big for one real man to devour. The brisket is fine, too, but it ain't no combo. Dr. D Hey Lil,

It melts in your mouth it is that damn good. Everytime I come home from school upstate, it is the first thing I get. Its an easy ride on the LIRR and right by the station if you're up for it. Easy drive from the city too. Do it.

I personally have tried all of the above mentioned and i prefer Carls's (the one on 34th and 3rd). For a good combination of wings, cheese steaks, fries and beer Wogies does win the battle, but in my opinion Carls has the best steaks ( and you HAVE to get it "wit wiz"). i have to disagree with Sandwich Man, although Wogies is really good, i wouldnt say they are the best hands down.
