Modest signage announcing "Steaks Beer-Hoagies" and the simple redbrick facade in no way prepare you for what this Roxborough treasure has in store. Indeed, those in the know claim that Dalessandro's may serve up the area's top cheesesteak – there's just something special about the way they cram fried onions, shaved seasoned steak and American cheese into those tasty hoagie rolls. What else sets this place apart from those closer to Center City? Well, at Dalessandro's you can chase your cheesesteak with a cold brew if you'd like. Parking isn't as much of an issue in Roxborough, either. Seating at Dalessandro's isn't very plentiful, but the food is plentiful and filling, which is what matters most.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Philadelphia Local Expert
- Best Value: "Don't order like you're in South Philadelphia, as they serve American cheese on their steaks here."
- Cheese Steak Shops: "This place features incredibly delicious food, but its very small. Be prepared that you may not get seating, and there are no restrooms."
- Recommended as Best Value Because: Since Philadelphia is known for its cheesesteak reputation, it's only fitting to have a cheesesteak vendor front and center for representation.
- Best for Cheese Steak Shops Because: South Philly is many times lauded as the home of the best cheesesteak, but Roxborough comes through this time with steaks to remember.
