Reviews for Old Original Nick's Roast Beef in Philadelphia, PA
Great food and okay service, but kicked everyone out while they were still technically open in the middle of a world series... game. Was planning on buying more food and drinks but had to go elsewhere for the rest of the game, along with all of the otherpatrons inside. Read more
Great atmosphere, my friend and I split a roast beef & extra provolone w/ an Italian long hot. We also split a roast pork,... provolone w/ broccoli rob. The roast beef was great perfect amount of gravy and served on a Kaiser, long hot was an enjoyablehot, I was not in there sweating from it. Not a huge fan of broccoli rob but I ate it, it was okay and pork was a nice salty toit. More of a coke fan, and they had Pepsi products. Locals where definitely friendly so that was a plus, a man bought a roundof drinks and included my friend and I. I would drop in again for sure Read more
Not what it used to be. The roast beef is covered in a thick brown gravy that tasted like Franco-American. I thought the beef... used to be in it's juices. ( Au Jus ) The server Michelle was very nice. This is not a $10.00 sandwich. This is South Philly,You can get a better beef or pork anywhere. Read more
Good place for a quick pick me up in a pinch. Food is hot and fresh and the fries are really good. Combo cheese is melts and... delicious, gravy is the perfect amount of salty to slightly creamy. Don?t sleep on this place. Grab a beer while you wait. Read more
Always get the roast beef sandwiches, I have yet to be disappointed, the other Nick's are not the same as this one! Their... sandwiches were wayyyy to dry but this store always has just the right amount of gravy! Travel there ever week!!! Read more
