After hearing the tales of mind-blowing cheesesteak from fellow TAGsgf.com staffers Scott and Chris, my wife and I made the venture to Chicago Cheesesteak Company on Walnut. I was fully intent on trying either the Chicago or Philly but the “Specials” board greeting us on the sidewalk was too distracting. So, instead of the planned Foodie Review you get a $5 Lunch, because the lunch special was ridiculous. A single-patty cheeseburger and side of fries for $2.75? Yes, please. With tax our meal came to $5.90.
The burger was delicious, a classic thick cut patty, with a single slice of cheese (nearest the bottom bun – great location opposite the veggies) and fresh, crisp lettuce, tomatoes and onions. The french fries are house cut, lightly salted and there’s enough crunchy potato pieces at the bottom of the fry sack to make my wife’s day.
I still look forward to trying the namesake from the downtown home of cheesesteaks.
