While you can get a Philly cheesesteak all over the United States, chances are you won’t find one that compares to Dalessandro’s Steaks in Pennsylvania.

Grab a seat at the counter, or grab your cheesesteak to go. Just be prepared to wait in line. The tiny eatery is so popular that there's usually a wait.

Dalessandro's serves an assortment of cheesesteak sandwiches. If you're in the mood for the original, order the cheesesteak, made with fresh-cut ribeye and topped with cheese and onions.
