Dalessandro's Steaks at 600 Wendover Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

One of the top cheese steaks in the city! Counter seating inside (if you're lucky!) and a couple of tables outside. Friendly staff and extremely popular with locals and others in the know. Don't be a tourist and think you have to go to Pat's or Geno's to get an authentic cheese steak.

Best cheesesteak in the entire Northwest part of the city (and maybe even the entire city). They also sell beer if you want to pair them up. Expect a line (sign of how good they are) but they're quick and efficient so you won't wait long (take a peek when you order at the mountain of steak they have cooking to keep up with demand). If you're eating in, expect to occasionally be bumped by people in the line because of the close quarters.
