Five and a half bucks for a six inch philly famous wit whiz? It tasted just okay and I was still hungry after eating it. Way too pricey for what it is.(I can get a full meal and a coke at other restaurants for what I paid here) Employees were friendly and attentive but this place overall I think is way overrated.

There's a simple rule of thumb I follow when it comes to choosing a cheesesteak joint. The harder a place tries to convince you that it's an authentic, Philly cheesesteak, the less authentic it actually is. So as I stood there at Joey's waiting to place my order, being stared down by Philadelphia Eagles team photos and Rocky tchotkes, my first instinct was to run. I'm glad I didn't follow through on that instinct, as I would've missed out on a pretty good cheesesteak. The key to Joey's is the bread. It pulls off an oxymoron in being both soft and firm at the same time. The meat is seasoned and cooked to perfection. You're also given your choice of cheese, of which provolone and cheese wiz are great choices. Put together, the components work together to create a beautiful symphony. What do you know, it is possible to have an authentic Philly cheesesteak from a place with multiple Broad Street Bullies references on its walls. With that said, I'm not sure I'd order anything off the menu that's not a cheesesteak, and that limits this to a 4 star review.

After watching a Man v Food episode in Philly I got a strong urge to have a Philly cheesesteak. So, I got on Yelp and found Joey's! The Garden City location is only 15-20 minutes away so we decided to check it out. I'm glad we did. We all had the Famous Philly Cheesesteak wit onions and wiz. The sandwich was very tasty. We also ordered the Mike's Bay Fries (very good) and the Chesapeake Old Bay dry rub wings which were great! We finished off dinner with just about every type of Tastykake they had! While the food at Joey's was very good, I was most impressed with the service. Everyone was very nice, they all had smiles on their faces and they looked like they enjoyed working there. Well done Joey's! I'll be back!

My rating system is a sliding scale, and in terms of greasy comfort food Joey's is as good as it gets. The place prides itself on being uniquely Philly, which is something I can relate to living in Michigan and seeing the pride people take in Michigan made products. Instead of Better Made, Joey stocks is shelves with a wide variety of Herrs brand chips, a Pennsylvania staple. I've also heard that they get their rolls from the Amoroso bakery in Philly that is THE bread needed to make an authentic Philly cheesesteak. Couple that with the neon orange cheese whiz and you have yourself a real taste of Philly in Southeastern Michigan. My go-to is a 12" cheesesteak, sometimes with onions, with whiz and white American. I know some complain about the price (usually around $10 for a 12" sandwich and drink), but you're paying for QUALITY. This isn't low-grade beef slapped on a generic roll with nacho cheese from GFS. Subconsciously my waistline thanks Joeys for being pricey enough that I can't eat there daily, but affordable enough that I don't feel bad when I break diet and decide to gorge. The people are usually extremely nice whenever I visit, be it the Garden City or Southgate location. The menu is also surprisingly diverse (pepperoni sushi anyone?), and I've yet to have a bad meal here.

I have ordered from here before and have never had a problem. I am a fan of the online ordering which allows you to pick a time, food, extra requests, payment type, and the food is always pretty-good and on time. However, tonight was not a normal night for Joey's Famous Philly. I ordered online, as usual, and the time it said it would be delivered was 6:45pm. My daughter and I were starting to get really hungry so I looked at the time, 7:30pm! I was furious. My daughter was incredibly upset and I was losing my patience. I called to see what the hold up was and they told me that it was busier than normal and that they were sorry (a little phone call would have been nice). Not only that, she said it would take at least another 20mins. I was trying to be kind, but this is not acceptable. I told her that they should at least give me something for the wait and she replied by saying "We should be able to throw something in." Gee thanks, if it's not too much of an inconvenience. I was at my wits end, they had 20mins to get here or I was going to really have a fit. Finally, they get to my door and hand me a huge box and a brown bag big enough to hold a whole turkey plus a few fixings and it was full too. Now, I had originally ordered the veal Parmesan and mozzarella sticks equaling to $16. He only charged me $11 and I received the veal, a massive amount of pasta, mozzarella sticks, delicious homemade Ranch, a family size bag of BBQ chips, an individual size bag of original chips, a fresh tossed salad, a full loaf of fresh-baked Italian bread, and a butterscotch Krimpet. Here I was about to complain and forever swear off Joey's, but instead we will remain loyal, regular customers. Take note restaurant owners, this is how you keep customers.

I have never eaten a cheesesteak sandwich and frankly I was a little frightened. As much as I love cheese, I have always had an aversion to any type cheese sauce, the idea of liquid cheese is just not right. I gotta tell ya though this is nothing like that, I am now a believer. I had the cheesesteak special and I wolfed it down like a starving puppy. My new guilty pleasure for sure. Stay away from the garlic knots, unless you like large pieces of bread swimming in very greasy butter.

I used to come here for lunch when I worked nearby. I have only gotten the Cheesesteak wit the wiz, peppers, onions, mushrooms and it;s amazing. Pretty extensive menu with sides, pizzas, and different sandwiches. Get some Herrs Old Bay potato chips with your cheesesteak! This place is mostly take out but they do have 2 tables there if you want to enjoy your meal inside. If your feeling like an authentic cheesesteak, go to Joey's!

This is a small, convenient carry-out/dine-in restaurant that serves a decent Philly Steak sub. When I ordered a cheese steak with onions and Cheese Whiz, it came very quickly and was decently priced. I would have wished the meat had a little more crispness from the flat top. The onions were soft and well done and the cheese was exactly as it should be on this type of sandwich. The bread was fresh, but I would have wished for even a slightly crisper crust to it, but I did take mine home, so it could have been an issue on my end. Overall, I feel that the ingredients were right, but I would have preferred just a little more caramelization and melding of the flavors. If I was in the area, I would stop again and give it another try because I do enjoy steak sandwiches.

Went back with a 7 sandwich order from work for lunch and every sandwich was made perfectly! The staff was very friendly, and told us next time they'd even deliver for us. I had the "Death By Cheesesteak, Whiz Wit + 'Shrooms. All I can say is EXCELLENT! Without going to Philly, you're not going to find a better cheesesteak anywhere nearby!

Best cheesesteak, in the cheese whiz category, that I've had this side of Philly. We looked at the Yelp mobile app for nearby restaurants while driving down Middlebelt and saw the Joey's Cheesesteak listed and decided to give it a try. Had a little confusion with the different selections, but settled in on a special and a Cheesesteak wit, with provolone and mushrooms. We ordered a regular family size fry and had more then we could handle and took about half home. There's not much of an eat in area, but I like to have my Cheesesteak while it's still hot and not too mushy. Good sandwich and fries though 4 stars.

Being trapped on Middlebelt the other day has led to interesting discoveries. One being that Joey's Famous Philly has opened an outlet in Garden City. I had tried them before and had been meaning to try them again but the other locales are a hike. This one is actually semi-convenient for us. I also like that they have three comfy tables (as opposed to two small booths at the Southgate locale) to enjoy your sub at as they are best fresh. Having tried an Italian type sub and not enjoyed it my first visit, I was smarter this time and went with the specialty, cheesesteak. Good call of course. The meat is tender and in meaty chunks rather than shaved or diced up. The bread is soft and dense. The sweet peppers and onions were flavorful and happy. The hot pepper relish was perfection, a must for me. My provolone pick was a bit bland, not the sharp stuff you get in Philly, that would be the only miss to this tasty creation. My husband was in bliss however with his American and cheese whiz combo that came on his cheesesteak special. He had to 86 the mushrooms of course but it came out just as he loves. He also got some merely ok cheese fries covered in whiz which he liked but I thought were overkill. We grabbed a two liter pop and they nicely gave us cups. The staff overall was very on the ball and friendly. We were the only people dining in but they had a hopping stream of carryouts to deal with and were handling it all well. We will be back. I have to come try some cherry pepper shooters at any rate.

Now this is based on a sandwich brought in the next day for our lunch...OMG soooo good. I can only imagine having this fresh off of the grill. I had the classic with wizz and onions. Ooozing with cheezz whiz and grilled onions and a good tasting bun. We also brought in a "death by cheesesteak". It has to weigh at least 3lbs full of 3 cheeses and tons o' meat. I think it would kill me to eat it. i gotta go by here and try it fresh

Robb T.
Holy Mother of GOD! The cheese... the bread... the meat... I am still full from my late lunch... eight hours ago. I just couldn't stop eating all twelve meaty inches. Yeah, that sounds suspect, but it's effing good. And I'd eat another one if you put it in front of me right now. (A cheesesteak, sicko.)

Jamie M.
We order from Joey's regularly and have sampled quite a bit of the menu. We always come back to the sandwiches, though. Phillies and subs are all incredible. The staff is always friendly on top of being patient and accurate with special orders. Our absolute FAVORITE menu item is the Quaker Fries. The combination of cheez whiz & gravy sounds pretty gross, but when once you try it, you'll have to have it all the time!

Elmer W.
My friend had a craving for cheesesteaks one day and I hadn't had much experience with them. So he suggested Joey's for dinner. Since then, I have frequented this place for the delicious authentic philly cheesesteaks. The buns are imported from Amoroso's and the sodas and chips are also Philly favorites. I reccomend the Frank's black cherry wishniak. Also if it's available I reccomend trying the Chelsie. If you go anywhere for cheesesteaks in southeast Michigan, check out Joey's for sure.

Evie B.
Service is always great and usually the sandwiches are too, but I was so disappointed with today's experience. Bad so bad when you are craving something and drive a distance and then are so disappointed. The sandwich was LAMEO. Our bread was cold and dry. One half of my sandwich had bits of meat/onion and a whole lot of cheez whiz and bread. For $8 not at all worth it. The meat seemed dry and something was missing. Perhaps when you order the 12 inch they just give you more bread and thinly spread out the fillings...My husband complained about the meat/bread too, but his sandwich was at least popping with filling and not just loaded with cheese... It will be awhile before I return.

Great food, got a couple subs and some fries for under $20. Great service, fast cooks and great prices will keep me coming back.

Daron D.
I must say i was stuck between 3 and 4 stars on this one. The Negative: My cheesesteak was a little too soggy for my liking, The Cajun cheese fries with whiz was OK, nothing special (fries would be better by itself), meat was blah to me,etc. The Positive: nice Philly flavor with the decor, a huge menu, wings were pretty good(had hot buffalo garlic and sweet Thai), amorose roll is excellent, and to me this has potential to be a 5 star place. the only reason why i am going with three stars rite now is the the negative did in case out weight the good, but trust i will be back and i will update.

What do you get when you have to stay late for work then are slapped in the face with an hour + commute home because the roads are so bad? VERY LITTLE MOTIVATION TO MAKE DINNER. My husband and I whined about not making dinner and how very few places deliver besides pizza. We turned to our trusty YELP app and Joey's Famous Philly Cheesesteaks to the rescue! We placed our order: Me: The 76-er. Steak, provolone, onions, and garlicky broccoli rabe Him: The Classic Cheesesteak with American And we split a side of waffle fries- we couldn't help ourselves. In about 40 minutes (major props to the driver delivering our food especially the way the roads were) our dinner arrived. While the cheesesteaks weren't steaming hot (expected) they were delicious! I loved the 76-er the tender flavorful meat mixed with the broccoli rabe was delicious. I will agree with Liz W. in the provolone department, I like mine a little sharper. Still delicious none the less. My husband loved his cheesesteak as well. I think we will try to dine in as much as possible to devour the sandwiches while they are super hot- but delivery last night was amazing. Will definitely be returning!

Paid a visit tonight to get pizza for the family, worst pizza we have ever had! Little Caesar's is GOD compared to this place! We ordered a Florentine pizza and just a regular pepperoni pizza. The Florentine pizza is a white pizza and it is described like this sliced chicken breast with sauteed spinach and our slow roasted garlic butter sauce. Sounds good right??? Absolutely no flavor not even salt and parmesan on top gave it any more flavor. The chicken was very sparse, the spinach was not sauteed it was just globbed on and cold as it was added after the pizza cooked. And what garlic butter sauce? There was no garlic flavor what so ever! The cheese was hardened like it sat while our other pizza cooked, I think they can only cook one pizza at a time. The pepperoni pizza had maybe ten pepperoni and half of it was missing cheese. The worst part was it was expensive and a large is the size of a medium at any other pizza place out there. My kids aren't picky in the least they eat everything and they wouldn't eat this pizza. I didn't know pizza could be this bad! They should stick to cheese steak sandwiches only, those are actually good. Stay away from the pizza!

Being a native from Philly; I'm a little bias when it comes to my cheesesteaks. That said, I have to say that I am fairly impressed with my visit to Joey's; by far the best sandwich I've had here in Michigan; that is when I'm not making them at home... The rolls are what really make the sandwich, they're truly a Philadelphia hoagie roll... Overall this place is good, the prices are in-line with what you'd expect to pay in Philly for the same items. I can't wait to go back and try some other things on their menu. The only thing that could make this place better would be if they had a better eat-in area like Jim's Steaks in Philly and they should also carry cold beer! Be sure to stop in and have a traditional Philly Cheesesteak "wit" wiz and a side of cheese fries; you won't be disapointed...

My favorite of the three Joey's locations, and a lot of that has to do with the family that runs the place (because the food tastes the same at all three, really). Friendly and very efficient. We always get the Cheesesteak Special, which has onions, mushrooms and two types of cheese (remember to ask for hot peppers!). We split the 12" so we can also get Deep Fried Pickles, Onion Rings, and Ken can have some Wings (Old Bay flavor gets a bit much as you go, so try doing half with OB dry rub and half with a wet sauce). Because everything is breaded and/or cheesed up it is difficult for me to want to eat here as often as Ken would like... but I'd recommend it as a special treat. Liz W mentions the seating is better here, and, while I agree, the table area gets pretty cold in the winter because it's right by the door. I would recommend eating in or taking out if you live close because everything will get soggy if you have to travel far before partaking.

I stopped by today and it was okaaaaay... The people there were super nice and it was clean and neat. I got a half cheesesteak "wit" onions and american cheese and an order of mozz cheese sticks. The cheesesteak was okay, I actually didn't finish it. The bread is too doughy and dense for me. I prefer a softer bun. The meat was tender and the cheese was melty, but it had a flavor that I didn't like. I can't pick out what it is, but I've had it on other steak sandwiches and it just sort of ruins it for me. I realize that's vague, but it's true. The cheese sticks were good and the ranch side was ample. Overall it was good. I'd go back and give it another whirl in hopes for another star.

What do you get when you have to stay late for work then are slapped in the face with an hour + commute home because the roads are so bad? VERY LITTLE MOTIVATION TO MAKE DINNER. My husband and I whined about not making dinner and how very few places deliver besides pizza. We turned to our trusty YELP app and Joey's Famous Philly Cheesesteaks to the rescue! We placed our order: Me: The 76-er. Steak, provolone, onions, and garlicky broccoli rabe Him: The Classic Cheesesteak with American And we split a side of waffle fries- we couldn't help ourselves. In about 40 minutes (major props to the driver delivering our food especially the way the roads were) our dinner arrived. While the cheesesteaks weren't steaming hot (expected) they were delicious! I loved the 76-er the tender flavorful meat mixed with the broccoli rabe was delicious. I will agree with Liz W. in the provolone department, I like mine a little sharper. Still delicious none the less. My husband loved his cheesesteak as well. I think we will try to dine in as much as possible to devour the sandwiches while they are super hot- but delivery last night was amazing. Will definitely be returning!

Good pizza, delicious cheese steaks!!! I have never been disappointed with anything from Joey's. Service is always friendly. Food is great and I even enjoy reading the articles on the walls. Can't wait to go back!

Paid a visit tonight to get pizza for the family, worst pizza we have ever had! Little Caesar's is GOD compared to this place! We ordered a Florentine pizza and just a regular pepperoni pizza. The Florentine pizza is a white pizza and it is described like this sliced chicken breast with sauteed spinach and our slow roasted garlic butter sauce. Sounds good right??? Absolutely no flavor not even salt and parmesan on top gave it any more flavor. The chicken was very sparse, the spinach was not sauteed it was just globbed on and cold as it was added after the pizza cooked. And what garlic butter sauce? There was no garlic flavor what so ever! The cheese was hardened like it sat while our other pizza cooked, I think they can only cook one pizza at a time. The pepperoni pizza had maybe ten pepperoni and half of it was missing cheese. The worst part was it was expensive and a large is the size of a medium at any other pizza place out there. My kids aren't picky in the least they eat everything and they wouldn't eat this pizza. I didn't know pizza could be this bad! They should stick to cheese steak sandwiches only, those are actually good. Stay away from the pizza!

Being a native from Philly; I'm a little bias when it comes to my cheesesteaks. That said, I have to say that I am fairly impressed with my visit to Joey's; by far the best sandwich I've had here in Michigan; that is when I'm not making them at home... The rolls are what really make the sandwich, they're truly a Philadelphia hoagie roll... Overall this place is good, the prices are in-line with what you'd expect to pay in Philly for the same items. I can't wait to go back and try some other things on their menu. The only thing that could make this place better would be if they had a better eat-in area like Jim's Steaks in Philly and they should also carry cold beer! Be sure to stop in and have a traditional Philly Cheesesteak "wit" wiz and a side of cheese fries; you won't be disapointed...

I use to be a fan....NO MORE. Ordered a cheese steak last night w/ extra cheese & mayo. Hardly any cheese, let alone extra. I Added the damm mayo. This isn't the first time either. FOUL. Peace Joey

My favorite of the three Joey's locations, and a lot of that has to do with the family that runs the place (because the food tastes the same at all three, really). Friendly and very efficient. We always get the Cheesesteak Special, which has onions, mushrooms and two types of cheese (remember to ask for hot peppers!). We split the 12" so we can also get Deep Fried Pickles, Onion Rings, and Ken can have some Wings (Old Bay flavor gets a bit much as you go, so try doing half with OB dry rub and half with a wet sauce). Because everything is breaded and/or cheesed up it is difficult for me to want to eat here as often as Ken would like... but I'd recommend it as a special treat. Liz W mentions the seating is better here, and, while I agree, the table area gets pretty cold in the winter because it's right by the door. I would recommend eating in or taking out if you live close because everything will get soggy if you have to travel far before partaking.

I stopped by today and it was okaaaaay... The people there were super nice and it was clean and neat. I got a half cheesesteak "wit" onions and american cheese and an order of mozz cheese sticks. The cheesesteak was okay, I actually didn't finish it. The bread is too doughy and dense for me. I prefer a softer bun. The meat was tender and the cheese was melty, but it had a flavor that I didn't like. I can't pick out what it is, but I've had it on other steak sandwiches and it just sort of ruins it for me. I realize that's vague, but it's true. The cheese sticks were good and the ranch side was ample. Overall it was good. I'd go back and give it another whirl in hopes for another star.
