I LOVE this place, and my favoritest run back to order meal is their buffalo chicken salad, with medium heat! Dining in is comfortable, due to their friendly, family-like, and clean atmosphere, (always feeling welcomed and enjoyed, as if we received a personal invitation), and we'd enjoy every minute of our time spent there, and every bite of our food! Also, you should try their delicious steak hoagies and Buffalo chicken wings! Their entire menu is worth every penny spent!

Very good first time trying the grinders and cheese fries with bacon, a little salty but overall very good. Chili cheese fries is nice and great size grinder. Recommend.

Philly has turned into our FAV spot to order out from! Good lord this food is good and every time we order we try something different. To this day, we haven’t found anything that we dislike. My stomach is happy but my bank account wants me to start hitting my friends with ‘public benefit fees’ a la Eversource to subsidize my spending habits here! Thanks for the great grub and fun notes on the take out Philly Grill! See you tonight (probably)

Drove down from Avon this afternoon to try ordering a “Philly Steak.” And believe me the Philly steak with sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms, and pepper jack cheese was worth it. Ate half in the restaurant and the rest I took home to eat later. The hostess was very friendly!
