Have a hankering for hot and tasty steak, cheese and caramelized onions snuggled up in a toasted roll? Then, you’re in luck. If you’re searching online for the best Philly cheesesteak near me, we’ve got it at Mario’s Pizza.

Savory Steak Subs At Mario’s Pizza

Just like NY-style pizza, many people believe you can only find the best versions of certain dishes in their city of origin. For the steak sub, that city is Philadelphia. In 1932, hot dog stand owners put grilled beef in a bun, sparking the steak sandwich craze. About twenty years later, a chef in Philadelphia added provolone cheese, creating the iconic Philly cheesesteak.

As the sandwich gained popularity and spread across the country, chefs began experimenting with various cheeses and toppings like peppers. Cheesesteak enthusiasts now claim that at least 25 different versions exist, and while each variation can be delicious, you can still enjoy the original at a Philadelphia restaurant owned by the family that invented it.

For many, though, a trip to Philadelphia is simply too far for a steak sub. But if you’re looking for the best Philly cheesesteak nearby, you can stop by your local Mario’s Pizza. We prepare our steak sandwich using quality shaved beef, melted cheese, and a tasty sub roll.

Better yet, choose to style your yummy cheesesteak with either option:

Mario’s Way

  • Cheese
  • Banana peppers
  • Onions
  • Mayo
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Oil
  • Vinegar

Philly Style

  • Cheese
  • Bell peppers
  • Mushrooms
  • Onions

Moreover, we offer an 8-inch sandwich or our larger 12-inch one. If you’re trying to cut down on beef or simply want something a little different, try our Chick-o-Philly sandwich. Its toppings match the steak sub, but substitutes chicken for beef.
