Their high quality, U.S. western top round steer beef is cooked on an open griddle. Choose American or Provolone cheese, or the local favorite, Cheese Whiz. Add sweet or hot peppers, mushrooms, pizza sauce and fried onions, and they'll put it all on a freshly baked Italian roll. Take your beer or soft drink and head to the upstairs dining room overlooking exciting South Street. Relax and enjoy the true taste of Philadelphia on the hippest street in town.
