Houston PressOctober 29, 2014the Wicked Philly packs some massive flavor, too. That's due to the loads of tender steak and onions, blankets of nutty provolone cheese, slather of mayo and the seriously delicious hot giardinera! Read more
These steaks are 10 times better than anything I ever had in Philly. I ordered the Papa Genos Steak with provolone and no mayo. Minga this is a tasty steak!- STILL the best cheesesteak place in town, from the bread to the cheese and toppings and the super greasy steak. wow.
- Allen ArcadeOctober 6, 2012The Disco Fries are fries with cheese whiz and brown gravy. ...like a southern version of poutine
Lisa LopezAugust 13, 2013So delicious! I would choose this over Philly Connection. Not very greasy either. Give them a try as any of their sandwiches or hoagies are great!
The BigBJanuary 6, 2020Good Philly-Cheesesteak-Sandwich. Well worth the money. The location could be better, but you don’t want to live there, just eat.
Ashley AllenAugust 31, 2017Love it! Friendliest staff while being understaffed due to Harvey, will definitely come back for food and service!- Lisa MarieJune 27, 2016The regular cheesesteak is my favorite. One of the best cheesesteaks I've ever had, if not the best.
Best Philly in H-town!! If you've never been to Philly don't worry these steaks are better then half of them in PA!!
Best cheesesteak in houston! I love the #1 original but my boyfrind loves the #4 wicked philly. We rave about this place to our friends!- Allen ArcadeOctober 6, 2012The "Wicked Philly" should be the default sandwich. It's like the regular #1 but with spicy Italian peppers.
- Wicked Philly is my favorite. You got to try the disco fries (gravy and cheese whiz)
OMG. Dangerously delicious. Get the Wicked Philly with Whiz instead of the provolone. Sweet Merciful Jesus!
ShawzillaFebruary 19, 2012You can't go wrong with the Pappa Geno cheesesteak and fries with gravy. Perfect food for a hangover.
Courtney 👠September 20, 2013Wow...best Philly Cheesesteak ever...I literally can inhale the very large sandwich! So delicious!
close your eyes and point at the menu... I guarantee it will be delicious (well... not an actual guarantee... but you get the idea)
The Wicked Philly is amazing and gotta try their gravy fries!
Alexandra KuchikMay 4, 2011Simply delicious! The owners are very friendly. I wish for their success.
- Allen ArcadeOctober 6, 2012The burgers are nothing special. Get them only when someone in your group does not like phillies.
Chris BarriereNovember 11, 2011Ever eat something and feel it clogging your arteries instantly? Yeah, that's this place. Good but dangerous.
