I walked in. Fresh remodel, looks like they want to be the next chipotle or to start franchising the place. Logo, kiosk system, everything is brand new... the first thing I noticed though is that either my bread was not toasted or it was a whole new bread. I simply didn't like or remembered this staple. Still a decent cheesesteak, but I also been to Philadelphia and have had like 6 different ones.... Just didn't hit the same as this is a San Mateo county staple in my opinion.

Who goes to the Philly cheesesteak place and get a hamburger, me... I really don't know what I was thinking, but that hamburger was pretty damn good. Next time I'll ask for it to be medium, because they will prepare it well. Other than that, I got their Parmesan garlic fries that were OK and a can of Pilsner. The place has about three kiosks that I think they prefer you order on, but you can order at the counter. The guy that took my order was friendly enough and my order was ready in about 15 minutes. I kinda like the place. It seems like a good place to watch a game. Next time I come by, I will definitely pick up a Philly cheesesteak.

I like jersey joes. quality cheesesteaks. probably the best you will find out of the east coast. they are very friendly - customer seems to be king/queen. the atmosphere is fun - they have good beers. the only down fall is location but i would say it's worth the drive. give it a shot - good solid place to eat. the bay fries are good too.

If you have a craving for a philly cheesesteak, this is the place that will satisfy your craving! Came here for an early dinner, not a lot of people there. Ordering was a bit difficult due to a language barrier with the cashier. Inside the restaurant felt like an upscale pub without the bar. The food was great, packed with meat as you can see, and the garlic parmesan fries were so good! Coming back when I have another craving for a philly cheesesteak!

My dad was a big fan of Jersey Joe's, and since he passed away I come here sometimes to have his favorite cheesesteak. They recently remodeled and it looks great! The staff members are also much friendlier now and I love the sign they have that reminds people to be nice. The wait usually isn't too long and there is plenty of parking. The cheesesteaks are good! I haven't been to Philadelphia so I can't speak to how authentic they are, but they are yummy!

The best Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches so far! After going here for YEARS, years ago. We were in search of the best cheesesteak place and still haven't compared to Joe's. We always come back. We are still looking for another with the same size, quality, quantity, taste and price just to look...haha. Been to Philadelphia already where the best Philly's are but still not the same. I still love Joe's Zucchini sticks and even their fries. We sometimes, order it to go but it's just not the same. It's always best to order and eat everything there. I didn't go here for a bit and they finally did a nice makeover with more tables, some high tables but with those metal square chairs. Not the most comfy but it's not for you to linger all day. It's their statement of get out of their; we gotta serve the other folks! Haha Comfortable and modern. They now offer wines, other beers, hard seltzers and other beverages like Starbucks, tea, milk, water, etc. They also have cold salads and coleslaw, too. The other menu items they had are still the same but I notice the $3 milkshake and now have happy hour prices during the weekday on beer and fries; not bad. Service is still good and friendly. Pretty fast on their service as they make it hot and fresh for you. Will be going here for years to come and have brought others. They love it, too. There is another location in Half Moon Bay but too far. Totally recommend this place [43R,2024]
