Cheese, Steak: Keep On Believing

Rodriguez Deli & Grocery

Want to know a secret? They best cheesesteak in Philadelphia does not come from Pat’s, Geno’s, Jim’s, or Gooey Luey’s. It’s not even in South Philly. It’s at Fifth and Poplar Street in a little bodega called Rodriguez Grocery.

You’d never guess it, but Rodriguez has been serving up the best cheesesteaks for as long as I can remember. The regular steak is $2.50. But the real deal is the double cheesesteak hoagie, which will run you $4.50. It’s dynamite. Lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles, steak, with salt-pepper-ketchup my friend. And the cheese–provolone. Man, for my money, it can’t be beat. And it’s huge! Get into it.

TheIlladelph ran a piece today on John’s Roast Pork, another contender for the best cheesesteak title.

I heard Johns is real good. Plan on visiting soon. Steves the prince of steaks in the NE rules.
