Straight Out of Philly Reviews
I would've given 5 stars but we got skimped with meat tonight. Ordered the combo Philly and 12 piece teriyaki garlic wings. Fries have improved but we should've had more meat. Disappointed tonight but flavor was good!
Missed my flight at Theodore Stevens International Airport. So I came here for a late lunch. Felt like I came straight out of Philly. Awesome food. Great food had the Boss Sandwich double meat. Friendly service. Great artwork on the walls. 'Preciate it
Delicious food. I highly recommend. The staff were friendly, and I loved the vibe of the scaled dining room.
Anchorage's "hood spot" - best wings in town, period. The chicken tenders are so massive it's more like a half of a chicken breast that's been breaded and fried for your gustatory pleasure. The philly sandwiches are great too, bread is soft and warm and the meat is juicy and cheesy. I can't recommend this place enough! It's always busy and bustling inside and the owner and his wife are super nice.
Great little place that my coworker told me about. Was at a meeting and decided to stop in. Great staff , great food. Reminds me of places back east, little mom and pop restaurant. Not many seats but that's not a problem just a note on the
