OMG y'all. I haven't seen a Philly Connection in years. I ordered a mushroom cheese steak it was not skimpy and tasted great!! There was one nice lil lady running the whole operation of the store. She was on point and very clean in her food preparation. I will drive out of my way to stop here anytime I'm in the area.
Been living here for 8 years and been wanting to try this place. So disappointed. The best part about this experience is having to bring my food home so I can season everything. Mozzarella sticks had no flavor at all and the marinara tasted like tomato paste. The curly fries were just decent but the main course.. The Philly!! Terrible. No flavor at all. I added extra cheese and seasoning at home. I mean... Even the fountain drinks were terrible!Never going back again. I didn't even take pics of the food but here is the restaurant
Not great but not terrible. The curly fries are excellent though with good flavor and were cooked really well. I ordered the pizza steak sandwich. Steak was a bit try and not as flavorful as I would’ve thought it would be. Didn’t have much for cheese or pizza sauce on it I almost thought there was no sauce. Inside the restaurant is not very clean so I was skeptical of actually trying any food from here. The soda was also very watered down and the staff barely say two words to you so the ordering experience isn’t all that pleasant either. I would give it one more try if I lived in the area but I’m only passing through so won’t be able to try it again for some time if ever. However, if I did try it again I’d definitely ask for extra sauce and extra cheese if I did another pizza steak, altho
Went on my lunch break, not crowded at all. Got a 7inch steak “ the works” and side order of curly fries. Total was $11.56. Friendly service, fresh bread, hot fries, good sandwich. No complaints would definitely come here again anytime I want a hot, properly prepared Philly cheesesteak.
The wait is long and the wings are higher priced than similar establishments in the area. However, I was impressed that there was only one lady cooking there on a Friday night and she was getting it done quicker than I expected for the volume of people coming in. Also, the wings are big and tasty, so it's kind of worth the expense.
