fast hot fresh. I not from Philly so I don't care about what an original cheesesteak is what I will tell you is this is bomb. if you are on the bigger side like myself the booths are a little tight but all my pain went away when I started eating lol. Have the other have was just as good. if I would say anything bad I don't care for alot of bread so maybe of the insides of the bun was scooped out it would be a 10 out of 10.

First time here at Philly Corner . Even though they are short staffed they were able to move the line . We dined in and got the combo Philly . Also had the funnel fries. Food was fresh and hot.

I got the cheesesteak meal and a side of the funnel fries late Saturday. It was so good I went back Sunday to get it again and was so mad they were closed! I was always skeptical driving past it cause it always looks closed but I was so happy I caught it Saturday night. I really wish I could’ve had it again Sunday but they’ll definitely be seeing me again. Spent 23-24 total btw.

The absolute BEST Philly I have had in Charlotte. Hands down. Philly Corner has everything you want in a great cheesesteak. The steak is juicy and chopped very fine, there is plenty of provolone, and the ingredients are fully customizable to fit personal palettes. This spot is the Queen City’s best kept secret.

The BEST philly cheesesteak in Charlotte!! This place is such a gem, I came here a long time ago and I couldn't remember the place but I could never stop thinking about it. I finally found the place today and came here after years and the food just hits the spot. Fries were so yummy and seasoned, I got the special (for such a great price too). I also just love the setup, feels so home-y and exactly what you think a diner should look like. Super clean, lovely environment. So happy I found this place again, I will be coming back soon!!

Great little spot I found on accident. The staff was engaging, but also short... In a good way. Good came out timely and was well cooked. This solved the craving I had for sure!
