When you think of food associated with Philadelphia, obviously cheesesteaks come to mind. So many outside of the City of Brotherly Love try to replicate this indulgence, but few are successful. What makes a delicious authentic Philly cheesesteak and where can you get them? Visit Philly has chosen 10 mouth-watering spots to help you fulfill your cheesesteak bucket list and one of them is Roxborough’s own Dalessandro’s Steaks and Hoagies.
Dalessandro’s has been open in Roxborough since 1960 and knows it’s way around a cheesesteak. They use fresh cut rib-eye steaks and never frozen meat. Add a host of toppings like fried onions, marinara, mushrooms or choose from almost a dozen kinds of peppers in varying degrees of hotness and sweetness to make this sandwich your own. According to Visit Philly, “legend has it that the grillmasters at Dalessandro’s season their sizable flattoped grill with fat before adding the meat.” If you like your cheesesteak with a beer, then this is the place for you as they have several taps of craft brews to help quench your thirst.
