The 7th On Walnut (formerly known as The Original Chicago Cheesesteak Company) (417) 865-1775 https://maps.app.goo.gl/YrY3UN2E3jJ4D2Y29?g_st=ic
I absolutely love this place! The closest I’ve found in Sprimo. Hope you try them out.

Charlie's in the mall has one with a cheese sauce close to whiz.

This is the one across the street from Jimmy John’s, correct? I personally haven’t been downtown in a whole bunch of years and I wasn’t sure if they were still there. That is exactly who I was going to suggest. Best Philly cheesesteak in town.

It’s not exactly authentic but Penn Station on Battlefield is awesome. Also great fries, cookies and Lemonaid.

This is the best sandwich place!

Chicago Cheese steak on Battlefield can get you what you need.

Considering that to qualify as an authentic Philly Cheesesteak it has to have the bread from Philly I’d say no, but I’m sure there are some places that do a great job. Just don’t know any off the top of my head.

I'm from Philly, Jersey Mike's is the closest I've found, but not quite it.
Chicago Cheesesteak has spectacular hot dogs, but their cheese steaks are wrong
Penn Station's fries are fantastic, but their cheesesteaks aren't right.
There was a food truck in Battlefield across from subway that is kinda close-ish
The best luck I had was making it myself. Walmart has cheesesteak meat, that works nicely.

I miss Conshohocken bread.
mightymeltar t1_iv88vgo wrote
Oh, Charley's at the mall isn't bad either. But still not quite it
Globalksp t1_iv8aho0 wrote
Was that a thing in SGF (moved here recently, from South Jersey, know how to pronounce Conshohoken… and Schuylkill and surprised to see it mentioned in SGF)??

Whose gonna start flying in the Amoroso’s?!

This was also the first place to come to mind, always my downtown go-to!

That would be a major side hustle. Probably worth it though.

I tried to go there for lunch today and they had a sign on the door that said “closed until further notice”. Not sure what happened.
Helovesmycoconut t1_iv8oepz wrote
Same. The thank you for your patronage part of the sign makes me think they’re not reopening.
atypical_lemur t1_iv8p5ep wrote
Well that sucks. I really liked that place.

I remember seeing a post on Facebook several months back about Marty's Sports Bar on Campbell having authentic Philly cheese steaks on Monday nights. I don't know if it's still a thing.
Hopefully, it's not "authentic" like the Big Slice. That sad excuse for NY style pizza is infuriating.

Never was a thing here. I'm from Philadelphia. A lot of food here is wonderful. I mean I think BBQ is a religion in the midwest. But I miss pizza and cheesesteaks like they did in PA.
Globalksp t1_ivamiz3 wrote
Ah gotcha. Hoping to change some of that missing food landscape here soon if I’m able to have my way… 🤫

Jersey mikes or penn Station. Chicago cheesteaks was lacking to say the least.

This. It also has one of my favorite sandwiches: The Eye of Sauron. Not year round though
GinWithJennifer t1_ivbddd6 wrote
Oooo... does it have more options?
GinWithJennifer t1_ivbdjbh wrote
How much would it cost for you take make one for strangers?
mightymeltar t1_ivbgcz1 wrote
They're super easy
GinWithJennifer t1_ivbx6q8 wrote
Okay but I want to buy some

I appreciate the compliment. But I'm not really the best person to choose as a cook.

This is my favorite sandwich, shop on earth! I stop, there every time I drive, thru Springfield MO.

Saw this posted and gave the old school a try at Charlie’s in the mall. It didn’t disappoint and had cheese whiz and onions.

A spot in Missouri. With the "Original Chicago Cheesesteak." Which is a Philly thing. I bet it's delicious.
Wtf is a Chicago Cheesesteak? I've been here for almost 15 years and I've never come across one. And I've yet to find a Philly Cheesesteak outside of PA that deserves the title.

You’re just a whole bucket of sunshine, aren’t you?!? Have the day you deserve.

I am am looking to find an authentic Philly cheesesteak that has chopped steak, cheese whiz and onions. I only seem to find ones that use Swiss cheese and green peppers.
