Eleanor 1909 Cheesesteaks - San Antonio

I REALLY wanted to love this place... Got there just after they opened and there was a line of 5 people. The ladies inside the truck were rocking out, bringing the high energy. I figured the line would go quickly alas I was wrong. They seemed like maybe they were having some technical difficulties with the card reader, averaging 5 minutes to take and ring up an order. I ordered 2 cheesesteaks, both with wiz, one with peppers and one with spinach and mushrooms. Add a gremlin and I was at 56, before tip. At this point I am already 40 minutes deep. Estimate was 15 minutes, which I felt was reasonable. They text you when your order is up, which is nice so you can wait in your car. A little over 30 minutes later and my order was up. Woohoo! The quality of the ingredients were undeniable, everything was fresh and flavorful, cooked as the order is placed. The sandwiches are gigantic, easily enough to split between two people. TIPS 1 Go for the whiz, it 's worth the upcharge. 2 Splurge for the Gremlin. 3 Don 't try and just swing by on your lunch, you will become invested and will NEVER make it back on time. Unless your boss is with you and then it is likely all will be forgiven at first bite. 4 At 2 a pop, skip the extras... While the long hots on one and garlic spinach mushrooms on the other were good, the steak/onion/whiz combo was enough on its own. Save your and get a Gremlin. Will I go back? More than likely. But I wont be going around lunch, and I will be sticking to a basic steak and cheese, upgrade to whiz.

The meat quality was good and the bread was soft. Other than that, the sandwich was kinda bland. Not worth the price in my opinion. Plus they need some decent sides like french fries or onion rings.

The BEST **** cheesesteak I've ever had in my entire **** life. I got the onions and jalapeños added and a side of the cheese whiz........ I love you. 10/10 recommend. And I definitely am HUGE on honest ratings. Eleanor.. whoever you are? You deserve the WORLD.

Not worth of $17 for Philly cheesesteak with wiz cheese. The meat was so bland, bread was so thick and hard to chew on. Wiz cheese wasn't good at all.

Probably the best Philly I 've had in town. The meat was seasoned perfectly in my opinion and the bread was super soft. I opted for the home-made cheese wiz with provolone and wit out onions or peppers. The price is a little on the premium side but please keep in mind that two people can comfortably eat off of one sandwich! I decided to pre-order a day in advance to ensure I 'd have one for me the next day! Definitely a place worth trying and as for me, I 'm looking forward to being a regular here. Give em a try, you will be more than satisfied. Enjoy!
