METRO ATLANTA, GA – Amidst the Keith Lee saga, where the city was in more turmoil than your aunt’s Thanksgiving dinner, we decided to shake off the drama, return to the city, and pursue a culinary quest for the creme de la creme. Lo and behold, on the outskirts of Atlanta, at 1379 Hiram Douglasville Hwy Suite 123, Hiram, GA 30141, we stumbled upon The Philly Steak Spot. Brace yourselves, dear readers, for this suburban gem boasts the most authentic cheesesteak this side of the Mississippi – or at least, the Chattahoochee.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: Georgia and cheesesteaks? Trust us, we were skeptical too. But hold your horses; this place is legit. The owner hails from the city of brotherly love and takes his cheesesteak craft so seriously, you’d think he was conducting a cheesesteak symphony. The attention to detail here is so meticulous it’s practically molecular – and they even import the bougiest of rolls from Amoroso’s in Philadelphia. These rolls are so high-maintenance they’re practically asking for a red carpet entrance, being “hearth-baked” and all. No pans for these prima donnas!
Picture this: Thinly sliced ribeye, sizzling on a hot griddle, maintaining its juiciness like it’s got a VIP pass to the flavor party. Sauteed onions and bell peppers join the fiesta, adding a sweetness that’ll make your taste buds do the cha-cha. And the portions? Massive. The meat spills out of the bread like it’s auditioning for a blockbuster action movie. They even have a jerk Philly that knocked me into a foodie coma – an artisanal jerk BBQ sauce with tender, seasoned chicken. It’s like the cheesesteak version of a heavyweight champion.
But wait, there’s more. Their burger is a heavyweight contender too. Served with house-made sauce, fried onions, house-made beef patties, and cheddar cheese, it’s like the cheesesteak’s burly cousin. We had to cut it into quarters because attempting it solo would be like challenging a sumo wrestler to a thumb war. Each bite was a flavor explosion that made fireworks seem like a damp sparkler.
Sure, they’ve got other tasty items on the menu, but the cheesesteaks and burgers are the true MVPs. And don’t sleep on their house-made drinks and Kool-Aid; they’re refreshing without inducing a sugar-induced coma. This spot is a must-visit, Atlanta folks. Give them a ring at 470-689-3930 – your taste buds will thank you.
In summary, The Philly Steak Spot is like finding a cheesesteak oasis in the Georgia desert, and I, for one, am ready to declare it my permanent business when I’m in Atlanta visiting family. It’s a knockout – pun intended.
