The Philly cheesesteak war used to have two sides: Pat's and Geno's. But Tony Luke's is giving the old guys a run for their money. Tony is a South Philly native, a singer, producer and actor who happens to make a heckuva cheesesteak. It's exactly what you want: nothing fancy, no tricks, just timeless South Philly goodness. The bread is baked in-house, the Ribeye is tender . . . you can also get amazing roast pork if it strikes your fancy, but why miss a classic?
Want to try Tony Luke's for yourself? This Oregon Avenue spot is very very popular, so anticipate a bit of a wait if you arrive at peak times.
