This video shows once again what i like the most about Pres - he treats everyone the same way. From Trump, famous athletes and movie stars, to working class people, and even 4 homeless guys on a bench. He never talks.down to anyone, always gives everyone a chance to say their opinion or tell a story. Yes, hes a Boston douche in lady clothes, and we all like to joke about him doing coke, but he also seems like an actually decent person.

The cheesesteak and roast pork sandwich is hands down two of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Can’t wait to eat this Saturday before the Phillies game.

Not a barstool guy but as a philly transplant John's is the best cheesesteak I've had, and the roast pork is up there (if that's your cup of tea; my friend thinks it's the best sandwich). This amount of care and love makes me even more committed to my opinion. Cheers to Portnoy on his patience and fair shake.

"a rising tide...asdasfgfgb bafads ga CHEESESTEAK"

John is spot on. In my family it’s always been American, grilled/fried onion and that’s it. If you want, add ketchup for a little tang and acid to cut thru the fat. Meat should be shaved ribeye seasoned with salt and pepper. And he’s spot on about American, there’s something special about good white American cheese in terms of flavor and melt that makes a cheesesteak a cheesesteak in my opinion. Def recommend you check out Leo’s as well. Another family run, award winning place with great steaks. I don’t think they even offer the cheese whiz shite!

Thanks Dave for taking the time, this place is the absolute best!! My brother in law lived in Philly for a decade and for a couple years only a few blocks from this place. I’ve had over 20 of the locals “you got to try” cheese steaks and I gotta say, hands down John’s is tops!! We live in Ohio BUT if we are within 50 miles, it’s a guarantee,no time…. we make, it’s not a question.

Went there today and there was a table of guys crushing yuenglings with their sandwiches. A true working mans spot lol. Great to see it getting the recognition it deserves, dalessandros and all those spots are so overrated compared to Johns
