The ingredients are simple, exacting and never greasy thinly sliced rib-eye steak, melted cheese, oven-fresh baked bread and delicately grilled onions. Awaiting your piping hot sandwich on the counter outside are ketchup, mustard, relish and Joe's choice hot sauce.
A Word of Warning!
Be prepared and know how to order, because the service is fast and the line keeps moving. For example, on a cheese steak with onions specify which kind of cheese you'd like (Provolone, American or Cheese Whiz). By the time you have given your order, your money will be taken and your sandwich will be out the window nice and hot! At the next window you can pick up your soda, fries and coffee. Geno's is open 24 Hours a Day, 7 Days a week.
Awesome post! Thank you.
I can fell my arteries clogging just looking at that pic.
I'd like to try this place but last time I was in Philly, I cruised around and around and couldn't find a parking space--went somewhere else instead (was only in town for the day). But on Monday, I'm flying to Pittsburgh with a brief
stopover at Philadelphia Airport...wonder if Geno's or Pat's has a stand in there?
Great post-----almost like being there.

IMHO Geno's has better steaks, too (and I've been to both)
