I'm from South Jersey and I share the same opinion as your wife on the quality of most cheesteaks in the entire DC/MD/VA area. So far, the best Philly Cheesesteak I've found in Baltimore is Sunshine Carryout in Park Heights, but if she finds a better one please let me know!

Glad that I could help!

Oddly enough, the best Philly cheesesteak that I have ever had in my life was not in Philly or Jersey - it was at a little gas-station grocery store in Shanghai, West Virginia back in 1999. I have no idea what exactly made it so good, but every cheesesteak I have had since then has simply failed to measure up.

I gave up looking for a good local cheesesteak and now when I want one I just go to Jersey Mike’s and order double meat.
