The Cheese Steak Shop - Makati

My colleagues and I tried ordering their food through the Food Panda site. The over-all experience of the delivery time plus the food itself was quite disappointing, thus the rating.To elaborate, we ordered around noon time via the website. We ordered three of the Cheese Steak Rice, which can be noted as a bit misleading on the menu in the site because it says that it's However, when you click it, the site prompts you to select between Chicken and Steak I can see that's how it's laid out in the Cheese Steak Shop menu here on Zomato but it's just a bit funny. In reality, their Cheese Chicken Rice is the one that is not the actual steak After paying with my card, the site then said that we would get our order within an hour, but it ended getting to us hour and minutes late. Mostly because the rider could not seem to find our building despite a) being in the same vicinity as the restaurant b) the clear address and c) my additional instructions over call and text. Perhaps that's why there was no delivery charge.The food was just as disappointing, for each. The steak was simply bistek tagalog covered in cheese. Literally about a small serving of beef with onions and cheese sauce. At least the rice quality was acceptable. The over-all taste and value for money was no where near worth the price point, maybe at I could've accepted it, but again, that was the price for the chicken. Unfortunately, would not consider ordering (via Food Panda) or trying this place again nor would I recommend it to my circle.

Pricey cheese steak served in a big bun. there's nothing special about the taste. i am a bit surprised, though, that that place had been there for years. not worth the money. place is a bit old but ambiance is ok, temperature is fine (not warm, not cold). i liked the oreo fudge thing. that's the only thing i liked.

Animated mats are quite unique plus they also have a food truck! you can never go wrong with the classic philly cheesesteak. if you want to be sinful add some bacon! haha then pair it with cajun fries and a soda.

Quick tip: This is a great place to outfit a Superbowl party for cheap. The Good I'm not from Philly but I've been there a ton of times, eaten out of the best food trucks and all that. This is not that kind of cheese steak, this is more of a west coast diner style cheese steak. That said this is, by far, the best cheese steak in the Philippines. I know that is not saying much, but its still really good for this country.  For watching sports with a beer, I really like and recommend the nachos in this restaurant. No other nachos I've had in the Philippines uses decent quality beef at this price point. However, you need to add  some salsa, sour cream and guacamole yourself, so best for take out/delivery. Their Italian hoagie is really good. Premium imported meats in great quality, actually tastes like a sub I might pickup at a corner deli when I lived in Manhattan. If my day is going to be crazy, I sometime pick one up to stash in my office ref to lunch while I work. Price is really good here, bordering on cheap. For imported US meat cheese steaks, other places are charging double for lesser quality/quantity. Most of their menu items, aside from fries and a couple other items, I consider cheap or fair for the quality. Not all, but most. The Neutral I went to college in Ithaca and I've lived where its grey. I know and have gone around Western NY, I've eaten Garbage Plates, been to many a Bills game in the tundra so I know what the best world standard Buffalo Wings taste like. The Buffalo wings here are not great. They are more like the wings you get in Northern California. They are passable but we've got much better wings here (finally!) However, the wings are cheap comparatively, so I still buy them sometimes when I don't need great wings.  The Not so Good The meat ball sub is really disappointing. When I ordered it I was expecting a normal sauce and mozzarella sub. Instead I got some weird thing made of dry meatballs, drenched in yellow cheese sauce in a hard roll. WTH is that? The parking here is terrible. If you have any kind of large SUV and no driver, just skip this place. Even a mid sized SUV is a very tight fit. Its better on the rare times their food trucks are out, but most of the time this parking lot is the worst in Makati.
