Tokoa Cheesesteak

We live close by CP area and wanted to give this place another chance. If we didn't get subs this good this time, then we I would only give 4 stars. We've tried this place 3x. First time was epic- gigantic pickle on my cheesesteak?! Heck yes! Sign me up! The second time, there were hardly any toppings- what- disappointment! And the third time made up for the second. The taste and toppings were there but the first time was really the best. The meat is flavorful and plentiful and the bread is soft, doesn't break down when you squeeze the sub. We have mostly used delivery services like uber eats and grub hub so I cannot speak to the ambiance of the place but uber eats was the best of the 2 deliveries. If you come to CP, I hope you get a chance to bite into this massive sub of yumminess!

My wife wanted a cheese steak or as she calls it, steak and cheese (Some time ago she was reprimanded in my hometown, Philadelphia for calling it that). So we searched Yelp and found this place. It wasn't a bad experience. The place was clean, the atmosphere was quiet, and the service was great.I ordered the Philly, which was ribeye, onions, Cooper sharp cheese, salt and pepper. I added banana peppers. My wife had the Philly as well, but ordered provolone cheese instead of cooper; and then she added mayo, lettuce and tomatoes; in Philadelphia we call that a cheese steak hoagie. The cheese steak was smaller than I expected, but plenty of meat for the size. However, we both thought it was more on the bland side. It didn't taste bad, it just wasn't flavorful without adding the mustard and ketchup. The french fries were very good; the kind of fries you put malt vinegar on. A decent portion, but not like those hamburger joints that give you too many fries and you feel like you have to eat them all; especially if you lack will power. Both the cheese steak and the fries were fresh and hot, which is always a good thing. I just wish there sandwich was tastier and larger.Overall I would go again and give it another try... My wife said the same.

Coming in The inside was very nice and clean but, The cheesesteak could use some more seasoning on the meat or something I don't know what it was but it didn't really stand out.

Finally had a chance to stop here! My original plan was a restaurant two doors down, but they are on Summer break! Two of my favorite local restaurants did that this year, and I don't recall noticing them doing that in previous years. Mind you, they are well deserved, because everyone deserves a vacation. I stepped into this place, and saw the Tokoa sign to the left, and then straight ahead was where you place your order and see the menu up above. They have plenty of cheesesteaks to choose from! And they also have some sides, drinks, and desserts. I decided to get the jalapeno cheesesteak, and I waited about 10 minutes or so. There was only one other party sitting in there at one of the five or so tables, so I just claimed an empty one and chilled. Also, it was scorching outside, so it was nice to be inside in an air conditioned establishment. The cheese steak came, and honestly I was ready to just take it home and eat it then, but I had some time to kill because I had a pickup order at a cafe ticket, so I ate it in the restaurant. It was everything that I had hoped for.Love the texture of the bread, and love the flavor of the steak, cheese, and everything else going on. I need to explore more of the menu now, and that will be happening soon. They have been circulating on social media a lot lately, so I'm glad that I could finally check it out. You should too!

YUMMY - Tokoa Cheesesteak was delicious!We came here after not having a good meal at another place - the menu offers various styles of cheesesteaks, sides, and drinks - pretty straightforward!We ordered a Jalapeno Cheesesteak Sub to share - this was jampacked with prime ribeye steak, melted American cheese, and grilled jalapenos, all nestled in an Italian-seeded roll that is coated with their signature garlic spread. This was SO GOOD. It was juicy, beefy, cheesy, and had a nice kick from the jalapenos. I loved that everything is made-to-order, so our sub came out piping out!I was a little nervous about the bread, but it was soft, fluffy, and held all the fillings well - everything just tasted fresh and delicious!We also got a Tokoa Refresher - this had a combination of lime and various other fruits/citrus - this was super refreshing and a great complement to the meal.When you walk in, you place an order at the cashier and wait for your number to be called; there are a handful of seating inside, and you can dine-in or take yours to-go.Service was very kind and awesome!Can't wait to return and stuff my face again!Metered and restricted street parking in the area.+delicious cheesesteaks!+try their Tokoa Refresher!+friendly service!+metered and restricted street parking available

I was not very impressed with the presentation or what I paid for my two subs. I got a chicken cheesesteak and a steak cheesesteak. Neither one had much flavor and needed seasoning. The service was great. It was quick however no one was in the restaurant because they were renovating. Great location.

A friend and I visited on 1/26/24. When we entered, there was no one inside and we were able to order right away. It was nice, clean and inviting inside.We both ordered the Philly's Best and fries. My friend is from Philly and I've had plenty of cheesesteaks from Philly, so we were tough critics.The sandwich was decent, but I would get the bread untoasted next time.

Do not waste your time or money! I'mNot sure how this place gets such high reviews for cheesesteaks! Maybe it's limited to the ones that aren't chicken. I stopped by today and had the chicken cheesesteak. The worst thing ever! It looked delicious as I unwrapped it. However, it is basically braised chicken thighs! Yuck! Never would've imagined this. I have never had a chicken cheesesteak that wasn't white meat. And definitely not braised! I would not return!

First time going amazing food!! Cheesesteak was really good service was amazing and very helpful

The food is amazing. We stumble upon this place. The cheesesteak and birria tacos was sooooo good!! Fast service, food was hot and plentiful! Will be back for more soon!
