Captain_Quint Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Pats, but do Johns Roast Pork instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leroi Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 That's like saying Anchor or Duffs. They both suck. Stay away from the tourist traps. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuoteTheRaven83 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Pats and Geno's are WAY overrated. Such a tourist trap. If you want GOOD cheesesteaks on South Street, all you need to know is Jim's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Tony Luke's - they bake their own rolls. But for overall experience, probably Pat's. And no cheez whiz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Pats and Geno's are WAY overrated. Such a tourist trap. If you want GOOD cheesesteaks on South Street, all you need to know is Jim's This. There are a thousand shops in the area that are better than Pat's or Geno's. Also agree on John's Roast Pork with Greens. So much great food in that town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Fong Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Go to Reading Terminal Market. Literally good food surrounding you. My favorites are the rib sandwich from the Rib Stand, apple dumpling from the Dutch Eating Place (get it with heavy cream on top not whipped), roast pork sandwich at Dinic's, and ice cream at Bassett's. But to answer your original question, I'm a Geno's guy if it's only the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetou Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Steve's Prince of Steaks is the best you will find. Jim's and John's Roast Pork are also great recommendations. If it must be Pats or Genos, do Pat's. Don't get Genos. Tony Luke's makes a good steak, but are a tier below the top IMO.

Jerry Jabber Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Geno's. Ask for Whiz, otherwise the steak has no flavor (same with Pat's). Reading Terminal Market is an orgy of incredible food. +1 That place is awesome! Steve's Prince of Steaks is the best you will find. Jim's and John's Roast Pork are also great recommendations. If it must be Pats or Genos, do Pat's. Don't get Genos. Tony Luke's makes a good steak, but are a tier below the top IMO. The Roast Pork at John's is very tender and flavorful, but the cooks there are pricks! Apparently, there's a house rule where you're supposed to order food on the grill first before ready made food.
