A local friend recommended that we stop here for an authentic cheesesteak. We went early to beat the crowds. There is a small area of covered seating and an additional outdoor picnic tables. For the cheesesteak, I liked that they cook and mix the cheese in the meat so it doesn't just sit on the top. I like that you can get the steak and cheese with sharp provolone. I was surprised how much I loved the roasted pork sandwich with spinach and sharp provolone. I think I liked that sandwich more. Makes sense... roast pork is in the name of the place!

It's the best cheesesteak I've ever had. The owner is a very humble, everyday Joe. Appreciates his customers. I've never had roast pork and that was a trip. Very different than cheesesteak. It was great but I'm all about cheesesteak, personally. They have good prices for what you get. Excellent experience for a guy from VA.

Philadelphia at it's cheesesteak finest. I recommend steak and cheese but there are other sandwiches there.

Best cheesesteak I've ever had. I ordered the mushroom cheesesteak. It was amazing. There’s indoor and outdoor picnic-style seating. Parking can be challenging, and you anticipate standing in line, but it moves relatively fast to place your order.

The absolute best cheesesteak in all of Philly! Being in the area and trying many of the cheese steak places, I can say this is my favorite for a number of reasons! Steaks are made to order and made from high quality cut. They don't destroy the steak like some other places do and leave nice slices so you know it's steak. The seeded rolls are crisp on the outside and doughy on the inside enough to hold the generous amount of meat they put in the sandwich. I'm not a purest and don't think that a cheesesteak must have cheese whiz - and I'm glad Johns doesn't serve it! They offer mild or sharp provolone and American. These guys also serve up one Phillys best roast pork sandwich! The pork is nice and tasty but the key thing is that they serve it with spinach and not traditional broccoli rabe (which I also favor). The spinach doesn't take away from the flavors of the pork. Been coming here for more than a decade and will continue to come back! Always a recommendation for anyone visiting Philly, truly a must stop for foodies.

Had an amazing roast pork sandwich day 1. It’s hard to nest the roast pork but the cheesesteak on day 2 almost equally as good. Fresh, delicious seeded rolls.

Philly simply has the sandwich game figured out, you just don’t need condiments to make anything better the flavor and taste in the end product is all you need. The savory, juicy pork piled high, topped with the garlicky seasoned brocolli rabe is just given a big hug by the bread and the flavors soak into one another. I ate half and saved the other half for later and it somehow developed in flavor again, out of this world.

I have had Cheesesteaks plenty of times but never in the City of Brotherly Love. Although there are many places to get them in Philly, I heard nothing but good news about John's. So, I made a day trip there just recently for the actual Cheesesteak and boy did it not disappoint! Everything about it was what I expected and more. Plenty of meat and they mix in the cheese with the steak so it's not just laying on top. Plus what really made it better was the seeded roll. That's a great combo! I also tried what their actually named for, the Roast Pork. It was succulent and amazing. It has a slight kick with the Black pepper which is what sets them apart from other Roast Pork sandwiches. I also added the Italian Long Hot Pepper for added Zing. I was thinking that they added the spinach to it which I saw on the food episode of it but it is something you have to ask them to do. It's too bad I do not live closer but definitely worth the trip! I will be back again. My pictures are not the best below. Bad lighting.

This is one of those hole in the wall where you see people lining up outside, and you have to know what's so special about the place...... it has limited seating, cash only, wait in line outside the ordering window, I met a local and another traveller in line, the local lives 15 minutes away and the traveller is catching a plane back home, the traveller was told by his friend to try this place and the local said that this is the real thing, and he has been coming here for a very long time. Ordered the cheese steak with grilled onions, it came out fast enough considering the amount of people waiting before me. The cheesesteak is about a foot long filled with steak cheese and grilled onions. I've bit into the cheesesteak and it was actually very good I can understand why a lot of people are waiting in line for this, it is meaty, cheesy, grilled onions and not too salty but just right. If you are a Philly cheesesteak kind of person this is the place you want to come to and try it out.

I’ve been to different parts of the country and I’ve been overseas a few times travel most of Europe. I still have not found a place that makes a sandwich, roast pork, or cheesesteak is good as this place the rolls are the best. The pork and the steak that they use are the absolute best and their sandwiches are friggin huge. I called them two-daters…. Usually my girl and I go there we’ll get one steak sandwich one pork sandwich. We’ll eat eat a half which we cut in half so we can have a little bit of both and then same thing the following day or the day after.
