Philly Soul sur Lyon

I am from Philadelphia, and I believe my life has been significantly shortened by my love of steak sandwiches in my youth, so I know of what I speak. I am of two minds on this restaurant: This was not a Philly cheesesteak - it resembled one, mostly - the ingredients at the most abstract form are the same. However, it is not the same. But, dear reader, do not take this as a negative - I am going to say something that will have me banished from Pudge's, Pat's, and Geno's: this is better. To someone who has never eaten a cheesesteak before, this will surpass what is served in Philadelphia if the two sandwiches are put on a table side by side and one has no other reference or history, and it will be obvious that the ingredients (meat, cheese, bread - a simple trio) are notably better in the sandwich from Philly Soul. To someone who grew up on these sandwiches, I would probably still gravitate towards the Amoroso roll and possibly even the highly controversial "cheese steak hoagie" that I can get from Pudge's, even with the better quality and taste of the sandwich in Lyon. They are not the same sandwich, but if you're looking for a great, fast, somewhat unhealthy lunch in Lyon this would be a top choice.

Very good sandwiches to eat in or take away, generous portions and inexpensive. Excellent fries. The exterior isn't much to look at, but it's a great place!

A real treat! You can customize the ingredients in your bowls. You can indulge without it being greasy. The server was friendly and accommodating.

Friendly atmosphere, impeccable cleanliness, exceptional service

Excellent! Very welcoming, fast service, and top-quality food. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for the service, the quality of the sandwiches, delicious! Thank you again 🙏
