This place is a huge guilty pleasure! Went for a cheesesteak and then walked about 15 blocks to ease our conscience, but it was well worth it! Great prices and to-die-for food.
Very descent and friendly place to have sandwiches,qualities ��lovely ,place to visit with friends and family
We love this place. The food is great, the service is stellar � A happy regular!
You can feel the passion the staff have for their clients and the food. The steak sandwiches were fantastic! The price for the "Philly" was worth it. The steak was tender and had a "taste" of it's own...right amount of cheese and couldn't beat the bun! I can't remember the last time I bit into a steak sandwich and the meat was still "hot"....great location...good parking....you gotta try the place. It's as close to the true Philly cheese steak as you can get unless you are in NE Philadelphia! Way to go! Can't wait to get back....long drive from Langely...but it is worth it!
Ate there today for the first time was so friggin good!!! I will definitely become a regular.
Saw this on "You gotta eat here!" And you definitely do!! Had the Bigshot and it was amazing! Tons of meat and cheese - love, love this place!!
Awesome food you really "gotta eat here" I had the Philly cheesesteak by far the best I ever had
Amazing Cheesesteaks and onion rings, service is good as well😀
Had the cheesesteak the other night. Unreal. I SWEAR it wasn't just because it was 3AM.
Best cheesesteaks around with out a doubt. But you need more locations, 1 is not enough. Come to the pitt meadows/ maple ridge area. I will pack the place for you
Amazing food. Great customer service. Definitely worth a visit.
My husband found this little gem during our quickie trip to Vancouver - was so good we ate here twice in our 3 days in the city!
i think that it is great all around great food great service and great atmosphere
It's really hard to impress me with a sandwich but this is amazing. I found out that they opened a small counter in Metrotown near by the movie theatre, but I would definitely recommend going into the official shop in Downtown Vancouver. Their selection of sandwiches is nice, very spacious, and the food is so good my mouth is watering just thinking about it.
It's been awhile since last eating here. Still a great place for awesome PHILLY CHEESE sandwiches. Some great varieties like the korean or the cowboy.
If you can, go see for yourself.
I thought that we were going to be moving away from an abundance of bread and cheese... But I guess that isn’t quite the case when there’s cheesesteak sandwiches on the menu! I had been looking forward to trying The American Cheesesteak Co. ever since seeing it on season 2 of You Gotta Eat Here! and I finally got my chance. You’ll find it downtown in a happening area full of many restaurants. This place is the late Chef Anthony Sedlak’s restaurant.
We popped in on a Friday night and I was a little bit surprised that it wasn’t busier. They run a casual system where you order at the counter and then go to sit wherever you want. The space is a modern take on “fast food” with white-painted exposed brick and plenty of chrome. I especially liked the pop art style pieces on the walls.
We approached the counter and looked over the selection of nine different cheesesteaks; some traditional and some specialty. A cheesesteak is a type of sandwich that was invented in Philadelphia, hence the name “Philly cheesesteak.” The main components include shaved prime rib grilled up with melty cheese, served on a hoagie-style bun. This was the first place selling them in Vancouver.
They serve beer and milkshakes, but I simply chose a Dad’s Rootbeer ($3.00). They also offer some interesting sides beyond the typical french fries, which include deep fried pickles and poutine. We easily went for the ACC Fries (Tossed in garlic butter + parmesan - $4.50) which sounded delicious. A pleasant staff member took our order and then we found a table to sit at. They boast that their fries have been triple fried for the perfect crispy texture. And they sure looked amazing! I liked the golden crispiness of the fries but I also found them a little bit dry. The flavour of these wasn’t as exciting as I had hoped. The parmesan was nice but the garlic butter didn’t really come through.
The main event, of course, was the cheesesteak. I knew that I wanted the Bigshot (Sautéed wild mushrooms, provolone, truffle aioli, crispy onions - $13.00) from the Specialty section right away. They also sell interesting takes on a Korean bulgogi and Vietnamese bánh mì that I would be interested to try. To me, this sounded like the best way to enjoy a cheesesteak by far. However, I noticed some discrepancies. This particular sandwich was also featured on You Gotta Eat Here! and the ingredients used on the show (in 2013) seemed to be somewhat different/better than what is currently offered in the restaurant today. On the show, the sandwich was made with a mix of crimini, oyster, and king mushrooms, waygu beef, fontina cheese, truffle mayonnaise, and fried shallots. (Sounds incredible, am I right?!) It doesn’t seem that wagyu is on the docket anymore, nor the fontina. None the less, this cheesesteak was very good. And giant!! The bread was warm, soft, and crusty, but not too bready. I can’t confirm what types of mushrooms are being used currently, but they were tender and tasty, a perfect compliment to the truffle aioli. Speaking of the truffle aioli, its big truffle flavour was my favourite part of the whole sandwich - delicious! The cheese was mild and melty and the onions were crispy and abundant. And then of course the beef itself was very good. Savoury and tender, it was cooked to perfection and was the star of the show. I would easily order this again.
Lastly, they have a special dessert called Coney Island Frozen Custard, so we had a single scoop ($5.00) of that. What makes it different from ice cream is that it’s made with eggs. We got the french vanilla flavour (classic) and it was nice. Very creamy and bursting with bright vanilla flavour.
I enjoyed this place. The sandwiches are legit good and they are doing Philly cheesesteak right. While I was a tad underwhelmed in some areas, they have other things on the menu that I look forward to trying out.
I got the new yorker and the ACC fries. Delicious! Although I thought the sandwich could use slightly more seasoning to really kick it up to the next level.
Very good, very fresh. No complaints. Everyone at table was satisfied with their selections. The service was quick and courteous.
Tried this spot out after seeing it on You Gotta Eat Here. Ordered the Cowboy, the Big Shot, ACC Fries and a Salted Caramel Frozen Custard Milkshake. The Cowboy was the the main sandwich shown on Y.G.E.H and consisted of: aged cheddar, homemade spicy bbq sauce, bacon mayo + crispy onions. The taste was great - a touch heavier on the bread than I would like but that is an extremely minor gripe. The Big Shot consisted of: sautéed wild mushrooms, provolone, truffle aioli, crispy onions. The Big Shot was my favorite of the two however it was a very tight race. The ACC fries looked and sounded amazing but fell short taste wise. They lacked salt, which all good fries need and the garlic butter and Parmesan flavor didn't really come through at all despite them looking picture perfect. I did opt for a side of truffle aioli to dip them in which did help. Lastly, the last minute decision I made to order a salted caramel custard milkshake was the best decision I made - it was incredibly delicious! It had a classic salted caramel flavor and a creamy custardy consistency. I would go back for that milkshake alone it was so good!
I love this place. It's great with a beer and they have real 20oz pints. It's clean, friendly, and not super quick but that's because it's all made fresh I like the regular philly with deep fried pickles on the side
This place has potential and with pride right around the corner, they are gonna make alot of money. With every new concept, a buisness will need to work out kinks and additions to the menu. I met one of the owners/managers and he was really nice. His name is Andy. It use to be co-owned by Canadian network food star chef Anthony Sedlak. May he rest in peace... Amazing person with energy and passion. He was born and raised in bc, and also enrolled into a culinary arts program at my old high school in North Vancouver. His legacy lives on here at Davie.
We ordered the classic philly, with mushroom gravy in it. We wanted to experiment lol, and why not right? It's fun! It's delicious. I totally recommend adding gravy. It elevated the classic. Then the cowboy, wow just gorgeous, loved the bbq sauce. And last the new yorker, very delicious! The environment is hip and fun. It's got a very American feel to it. The patio has alot of space. There's plenty of room to tie your dog out front. I was told that they just opened up a new location at metrotown. Pretty cool. I would come back for that cowboy and new yorker. It's delicious.
There's too many hotdogs in this city, try a cheese steak.!
The American Cheesesteak Co. has been around for several years now and is a local restaurant that is dedicated to serving authentic Philadelphia cheesesteaks. It was co-owned by the late Canadian Food Network star, Anthony Sedlak, who passed away not long after the restaurant opened. Despite this tragedy when the business was just starting, American Cheesesteak Co. remains a foodie hotspot at 781 Davie Street and is now expanding to a second location to be opened in Metrotown. I dined at American Cheesesteak Co. twice over the last few years and here is a review of my experiences.
Oh. My. If you love tender prime rib, cheese, crispy little fried onions, spicy BBQ sauce, and some bacon Mayo on top of a freshly baked hoagie bun...go no further.
I picked up "The Cowboy" with Tammy, and also got their chicken strips and Fries with dip. Their chicken strips rival White Spot's, and beat A&W's. I'm a huge chicken strip / nugget fanatic so I know my chicken. The dipping sauce I got was a sriracha Mayo, and it is on point!
I didn't get a chance to snap a picture but dear lord it was worth all the pain of being gluten and lactose intolerant! I'll be back for sure! One of the best sandwiches I've ever tasted.
After Dine Out Vancouver 2016 at The American Cheesesteak Company, I had to come back to use my vouchers. Somehow I ended up with three, so happily I managed to get a couple of friends to come with me before they expired at the end of this month. This time around, I decided to try their most basic and traditional Cheesesteak, and chose the Philly ($10, cheese + sauteed onions) with American Cheese. I wanted to know what the fuss was about that started this.
Overall I feel The American Cheesesteak Company is offering a very good deal during Dine Out Vancouver 2016. Since you get a voucher for $5 off, the net cost is only $15. Even at $20, what you get is a sizable and tasty meal, complete with drink. Even without Dine Out Vancouver, their sandwiches/subs are already about twice the size of a gourmet burger at a comparable price.
This place nailed it. Located on Davie across Nandos. Decent price, around $12. Pretty filling do come on an empty stomach! Not too greasy. Nom nom.
If you're a cheesesteak fan and are in Vancouver, you need to check out the American Cheesesteak Co. They have the best cheesesteaks in Vancouver. It takes about ten to fifteen minutes to get your cheesesteak, but the wait is worth it, as the quality is amazing. The prices are pretty cheap as well as the big shot costs 13$. A good price for a hearty cheesesteak. We definitely recommend checking out American Cheesesteak for some really good food!

I was supposed to meet a friend over at The Distillery for a drink but hadn’t had dinner yet. I decided to walk from my home in Kits to Yaletown since it was a beautiful day out and figured American Cheesesteak Co. would be an easy option since it was on my way there. The Italian always gets take-out from them since he lives just across the street so I figured it was my turn. 45 minutes of walking later, I arrived to a mostly empty restaurant. When I walked in there were a couple cooks on my left behind the counter cooking and preparing all the food in front of you. Straight ahead is the cashier who was eager to take my order. I haven’t had too many cheesesteaks in my days and thought I should just stick with an original sandwich to appreciate it in all its glory, but it really sounded quite plain. The Philly is just shaved prime rib and cheese, pretty boring sounding if you ask me. Going through the list I wanted something a bit saucier and so the specialty steaks seemed more up my alley. Being the manly man that I am, I decided to go with The Cowboy (shaved prime rib, crispy fried onions, homemade spicy bbq sauce, bacon mayo and aged white cheddar) along with a side of small Onion Rings . I was a little disappointed they didn’t have any sort of combo offerings for a bit cheaper since you generally want both and maybe even a drink, so the sandwich was $12 while the onion rings were $4. I decided to stick with tap water since even their sodas were $3, a tad expensive if you ask me. I found myself a table to set down my things and went to the self-serve area to pour myself some water. Just to vent about a stupid little thing, this was possibly the most frustrating water container ever. I literally stood there for 2 minutes waiting to fill an average sized glass of water because it poured excruciatingly slow. When I eventually finished my cup of water I was s
Saw on you gotta eat here, read some good reviews so we decided to try. I am writing this mid sandwich to tell you it's great. One of the better Philly cheeses I've ever had. Good fries too. Would recommend.
Always amazing. -

I've been here twice now and if I lived closer, it would be much more frequent. The sandwiches are unreal, authentic Philly Cheesesteak with a twist. The buns are fresh and soft, they're generous with the toppings and the beef is like nowhere else, simply delicious. My wife doesn't like steak but loves ACSC!
The fries area double fried so they're crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. Decent beer selection too! The staff is friendly and the prices are fair. I highly recommend this place, it's a must.
Yummy Cheesesteak. There are a bunch of yummy selections here like the Cheesesteaks and there many variations, the hotdogs, and there poutines.
I had the Cowboy cheesesteak it was really good! the shredded prime rib was ultra juicy and the bread super soft, the cheese and the mayo bbq sauce was pretty good on it too! Very heavy and tough to finish lol. The poutine was really good too, more cheese curds though please! The beef on top was really good, solid bites for sure!
Awesome authentic Philly cheesesteak. Nuff said go and try one!!!!
Great food .very delicious '!!!
Savor the flavor. Man, this place is great! The quality of everything is undeniable and the attention to detail makes this the BEST sandwich around. I went a couple of days ago and had The Big Shot (sounds impressive and I think only $2 more than the standard sandwich). Great prime rib meat and the mushrooms and melted cheese all blend together for such a nice mouthful of goodness (I just got back from another restaurant now and writing this is still making me want one of these sandwiches). It the list of fine ingredients ended there this would be just a good sandwich. What I think makes it great is the crispy fried onions to give it crunch and more flavor. Finishing little touch: parsley for that missing something. I don't like sauces so the cook suggested to put the truffle aioli on the side. I dipped a couple of my fries (which are above average, tasty and crispy, with skins and a natural potato flavor) in the aioli to try it out. It was good, but not necessary on my sandwich. Overall a must visit. Too bad it's not right on Granville for more exposure. Good meat. Good overall sandwich. Good fries and milkshake.
I'M FROM PHILLY & THESE STEAK ARE OFFICIAL!!!. Ok now you know these are better than some phillysteak spots I grew up around in Northeast Philadelphia! Because their food quality and meat is better. I love the gourmet sandwiches, I tried the Big Shot! With the truffle oil and the crispy fried onions.....amazing!! Again if you never been to Philly or New Jersey (where I was born), if your not a DIE-HARD Eagles fan as I am, and have watch over 20 seasons of the Eagles while eating a cheesesteak please don't claim the American Cheesesteak Co. is not authentic!!!
It's probably the best Cheesesteak place in all of the west coast of North America. Because Seattle and Bellingham place are minute steaks, just like most of the places in Philly! Again the quality makes ALL the DIFFERENCE!!
Will I be back? lol I'm there now!
Great Downtown Eats. Wasn't too busy so I got The New Yorker with sautéed onions and American cheese which surprised me by the size of the sub making it worth the price.
Also had some onion rings on the side and it was alright, nothing special.
Amazing service. Check these guys out for the most epically awesome guys around, seriously above and beyond service expectations with my special order!
Best cheesesteak in Vancouver!. MMM cheese mmmm meat...what more could a girl ask for? I had the LE bifteck and it's so good! Considering that the small is the same price as subway down the street I dunno why anyone would go there anymore. Now the Big shot is really really flavorful and worth a try once in your life considering it's steep price but worth it-very very worth it (just once). Let me explain why-it's wagyu beef people! That's the same kind of cow kobe beef is from so yes it's authentic kobe-ish beef. Items with the name kobe burger, kobe restaurant, nuhuh not even the real stuff. So yes, bottomline try the expensive sandwich once but stick with the LE bifteck or other cheaper items if you plan on having all the flavor but none of the walletpinch like us other lowly mortals.
I tried 'le bifteck', 'cowboy' and ACC fires. All dish was so yummy! All ingredients were harmonious in my mouth. I prefer 'le bifteck' because of its sauce; kinda sweet and mild. I felt 'cowboy' had so strong stake sauce that it's easy to be sick of it. But my sister prefer 'cowboy'. I ordered small fries, but the protion was pretty big. It was more than enough for 2 girls, and it was so taisty as well.
I thought it was great and I'll be back. I would go more, but it's expensive, $10+ for a small is a bit up there for lunch in downtown.
Nice Concept. The only other CheeseSteak we have tried were the ones in Subway so it was nice to have a place that is dedicated to CheeseSteak. We ordered the Cowboy and the Classic (with provolone). The Classic CheeseSteak had mushrooms in it but we didn't feel that there was much mushroom taste to it - should have opt for the Philly instead (a dollar cheaper). The Cowboy CheeseSteak was tasty and had a lot more ingredients in it but we did find the bbq sauce a little overwhelming (maybe a little less would be better). Everything was very fresh. They cook the steak right when you order.
Classic was a classic. High quality beef and not oily. I'd recommend going home and toasting it in a small oven to brown the bun a bit more.
Very tasty and not too heavy. I'm not a heavy beef eater but this was far superior to a hamburger. These guys hit it on the head and I'll definately try something different next time.
The sandwich is great! Always have the New Yorker and it is always tasty! It's a bit of a wait (about 12 to 15 min) so its not fast food, but that's only because they don't cook your shaved prime rib until you order it. It's worth the wait though...super yum.
Completely enjoyed my Classic cheesesteak and acc fries. Chef @anthonysedlak has brought the best of Philly to Vancouver. Thanks Anthony!
I got The New Yorker, w sautéed onions and provolone... Yum. I wouldn't even have to think twice about going back. I didn't even have to wait long in line or to have it made, soo... Service-wise, it really depends on what time of day you go I guess. Worth it!
My wife and I checked out the A.C.C. on Friday. Cool "diner-like" atmosphere and location. The food was Awesome! Melt in your mouth beef, and the bun is perfect. Cold beer, friendly service, reasonable prices, and amazing food. What more could you ask for?? Highly recommended.
Cheese Steak, ' Nuf Said. Cheese Steak Sandwiches with Provolone. Delicious, yummy and awfully savory. It taste better with the Sauteed Onions too. I also had a side of ACC fries (Fries that are tossed with fresh garlic, parsley and parmesan) coupled with Truffle Aoili, hmmm hmm hmmm! My only beef (pardon the pun) is that my Baguette is not toasted warm and crunchy. If they had done that, it would be perfect.
Tried ACC last night and I was really impressed. Knowledgable staff helped out with explaining things. I was going to get the regular fries but the ACC fries smelled heavenly so I ordered those instead. ACC fries were flavorful and delicious. The Philly "with" and American cheese was cooked to perfection. Order was to go and when I got home things weren't soggy. I recommend it!
...the sandwiches are great! But I don’t like how the buns are like hot dog buns. They break off into half and the meat inside falls out all over the place. The meat is “steak” is very juicy, but also a bit too greasy. You will get tired of it after half of the bun. I guess it depends cause I usually eat light.
I visited The American CheeseSteak Co. in Downtown Vancouver and It was amazing! Delicious sandwiches and cheap beer combined with friendly staff is hard to match!

...After having a rather disappointing Philly Cheesesteak sandwich/wrap...I decided to head to downtown Vancouver and see how the American Cheesesteak Company does up their Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches. My verdict – they do them up superbly.
This blog post contains photos only.
I highly recommend this place! It is located on Davie and they don't have their personal parking so the only way is if you transit or you pay parking. At first when I heard the name I thought it'll be a very fancy place but nope, it's a super casual atmosphere and you basically pay at the counter first and you go sit yourself and grab utensils on the side on your own. When you purchase food, they'll hand you a number tag so they'll know what you ordered and they'll bring it over when it's ready.
It's time for lunch today and I wanted to go to one of my favorite places reasonably near my work. The American CheeseSteak Co was a short bus ride across the Granville Street bridge from me. Yes - if it's worth it I will commute on my lunch. And believe me this place is worth it.
I dig all this specialization. Choose one thing and do it well. Until recently, if someone had asked me, where do I go to get a good cheesesteak around here, I would’ve stared at them blankly and then made some crack about Philly. I now have a better answer: The American CheeseSteak Co.
We started off with the ACC Fries ($4 small size), which were tossed with garlic, parsley and parmesan. The thick-cut fries were very aromatic and tasty! Even though it was a step up from regular fries, I thought that some of the fries were overcooked…
Foodie Recommendations: Even for the strong eaters out there, I would still suggest ordering a 6incher to start off with. That shits intense.
I opted for one of the special ones and got the regular sized Cowboy ($10) which comes with shaved prime rib, crispy fried onions, homemade spicy bbq sauce, bacon mayo and aged white cheddar. This sandwich was amazing.
Meta Knight and I shared a Large Cowboy ($12.00) as it seemed to be the highly recommended one on the menu. The large cowboy consisted of shaved prime rib, crispy fried onions, their homemade spicy BBQ sauce, bacon mayo, and aged white cheddar. I have to say... this was one indulgent cheesesteak. The cheese was nice and gooey while the crispy fried onions gave the whole sandwich a great crunch. The shaved prime rib was absolutely delicious and they piled quite a bit on there too.
I must warn you their sandwiches are mouthwatering (I'm wanting one right now!), full of meaty goodness and seriously delish.
After being tempted by Kevin and Jeff with their cheesesteaks, I went back the day after just for it since it looked so delicious.
..we will definitely be back for these great sandwiches and to try out their sides as well. When the Cowboy is a calling, it will be hard to ignore!
This is a perfect addition to the downtown core and definitely a first. I'll be going back to try the other sandwiches.
Frozen custard is creamier, silkier and smoother than regular ice cream, frozen custard is delicious beyond belief. I was so sad to learn that this amazing treat was not available in Canada. Until now.
Once again, the food was good and plentiful. Not wildly spectacular, but it was damn tasty and sure fills your meat quotient.
The American CheeseSteak Co. opened up around Davies and Granville a few months ago. They serve up some delicious CheeseSteaks at decent prices. Anthony Sedlak, the chef of The American CheeseSteak Co. was also the host of the Food Network show - The Main . He's also lost a lot of weight since then. If you're looking a good filling meal with lots of delicious meat in a bun, this place is the place to go. Dee from Gastrofork and I decided to check it out, so do check out her thoughts on the meal as well. Bottled Coke ($3) I love old school bottled coke in the glass bottle. It brings me back to the days before I was born. I also caught a picture of Dee in the background just for fun. Le Bifteck (Small-$10) has shaved prime rib, caramelized onion jam, double-cream brie, arugula, and dijon. The ooey gooey brie cheese with the meat just made a very good combination. It was very messy to eat, so I got sauce all over my hands and face. I felt like a kid not being able to control how clean or
Anthony Sedlak 's black olive and goat cheese tart has been one of my go-to, fail safe recipes for years so you can imagine my excitement when he opened The American Cheese Steak Co. in downtown, Vancouver. Ok, and I'll confess that I've noticed between his stint as host of The Main and the opening of The American Cheese Steak Co., Anthony Sedlak has transformed his image from being a wholesome, low key, boy next door to an edgy, tattooed, culinary rebel. Not that it takes edgy rebels to sell Philly cheese steak sandwiches but it couldn't hurt to have some street cred. The American Cheese Steak Co. 781 Davie Street, Vancouver I have been hearing endless stories about the Cowboy cheese steak sandwich. It's always the one that Anthony Sedlak makes on TV appearances , and it also seems to be the sandwich that every food blogger in town has been ordering so I was dying to try
Located on the 2nd floor, right under Cineplex and close to Winners store.
I bumped into this cozy little place a few days ago. I tried their bestsellers, The New Yorker & The Cowboy. Both were super yummy. The meat was juicy, just the right temperature and the sauce was, ohhhhh, so good!!
The quantity is a bang-for-the-buck. They even have a good seating area, sufficient for at least 10 folks. The music adds to the chill ambience of the place. The attendants were extremely courteous.
Must try for meat lovers. I am definitely coming back for sure. Highly recommended!!
Lucky to have found this hidden Gem. When it comes to Sandwiches we don't have many good option in Vancouver let alone Philly classic Cheesesteak. It has one of the best one i ever tried and i did try the authentic ones back in Philadelphia. Perfect combination, I tried his New Yorker, extra yummy with high-quality prime beef steak, made fresh to perfection. Will drive back and try again. Well Worth it!
That's THE chef who created all sandwiches in The American Cheeseteak Company in Metrotown. He prepared one of his signature sammys that he would usually offer only in December, a Japanese Style cheesesteak for us: wagyu beef, with ponzu sauce, mushrooms, onion, cheese, gently caramelized it all with a handheld butane torch after and then drizzled with Wasabi mayo, topped with some seaweed and sesame seeds. I tasted layers of flavors, starting with a smokiness from the light charring, then the sweetness from the onions and ponzu, the Wagyu beef, juicy from his expert searing and finally, the wasabi mayo that tied in the cheese and mushroom flavors together. He said that he'll be there all summer long so we will definitely come back for more!
I was so happy with my meal I got today.
We had their classic and NY steak sandwiches. As usual it was hot, flavourful, cheesy and, juicy. Made with perfection and care! Definately will be coming back again for our cheesesteak sandwich cravings. Try their onion rings, so good... HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Located right below Metropolis at Metrotown mall's Cineplex theatre (by the stairs). Only 2 tables open for dine-in, but feel free to order take-out or delivery.
My order:
-Japanese Style Cheesesteak: my personal favourite - juicy sautéed mushrooms & onions, aged cheddar, wasabi mayo and of course premium ribeye steak slices. It’s saucy, and the cheese blend enhances the flavour.
-Koagie (Korean Hoagie): Kimchi was good (not too sour or spicy), so I could comfortably eat it.
-New Yorker: the classic if you don't want to venture away from a
"normal Philly cheesesteak" - topped with fresh tomatoes and lettuce
Overall, the hoagie roll was soft on the inside, and a good chewy texture on the outside. I reheated mines in the microwave, and it still tasted good several hours later. These cheeseteaks are more saucy than the traditional cheesesteaks, which I personally enjoyed as every bite was filled with flavour. Very filling - best to share if you want to try different flavours. I also really liked their assortment of cheeses (no fake Cheez-Whiz stuff, sorry if you like that though), I think they use aged cheddar, provolone, and some others in a cheese blend. They definitely don't cheap out, and use a generous portion of tender/sliced prime rib steak. All cheesesteaks are made-to-order on a grill when you place your order.
-Onion Rings: skinny-style
-Deep Fried Pickles: good thick cut of pickles to breading ratio
-ACC Fries (Garlic Butter & Parmesan): classic thick cut fries with a very "potato-y" flavour
-White Chocolate Blueberry Milkshake: quite sweet, definitely for people that have a sweet tooth
Also, I definitely have to mention the house-made sauces, they're so good for dipping the onion rings, pickles, and fries (cheesesteaks were saucy enough, so I didn't need it there). My personal favourites were the roasted garlic aioli, smoke Chipotle BBQ (not to overpowering or salty), and mustard (real mustard seeds).
Newyorker steake was Very Delicious. Resturant is in Burnaby, Merotown mall, second floor. Can't wait to go back with my family very soon 😃
Today, my husband and I tried their "Koagie." We were passing by, and their sandwich pictures on the screen locked very appealing after walking around the mall. The Koagie has Bulgogi beef and kimchi that were topped up with a kimchi mayo! The beef was tender, and the kimchi was sour and not too spicy. The bun was toasted, and there were also some sautéed onions and red peppers. Overall, it was a very tasty sandwich. I will have to come back to try their other items!
