Recent visit to Mama's Pizzeria on Belmont Avenue in Bala Cynwyd

Has anyone had a cheesesteak at Mama's lately? I've moved out of the area but remember the cheesesteaks at Mam's fondly -- in my humble opinion, they were the best in all of Philly.

Planning to order a bunch of them on an upcoming visit to Philly, freeze them, and take them back to taste-deprived Ohio.

  1. They are the same as they've always been if you like that style. I prefer less of a "pizza style" sandwich. You certainly don't walk away from one hungry.

        Thanks. I always felt that the quality of the meat and the preparation were excellent.

        • As always, Mama's is often not open when you would expect, so call ahead!

            1. We had Mama's a couple weekends ago. Boyfriend had cheesesteak hoagie. I had a cheese hoagie. Both were fantastic!
