Gooey Looie's

Local spot beef steak piled heavy and high. Served with ketchup which was an interesting change. Great spot

Great little place in south Philly a few minutes from I-95. Parking is a little tough. There is a small lot nearby. The SMALL steak is HUGE. $20 for a steak, coleslaw, and a drink. Cash only. I was there mid-afternoon and there was a line. Food came out fast. There was a picture of Babe Heffron and Bill Guarnere (101st Airborne) over the counter. When I said something, the entire group became incredibly friendly and shared a few stories about them.

Small inconspicuous friendly place. A Philly native recommended this place. The employees were very nice. They could tell this was my first visit and made my visit easy. The cooks were also helpful and polite. The cheesesteak was ok. Wasn't the best I had in Philly nor DC for that matter. But good. Would I leave the main city of Philly for here, no. Would I make a stop if I'm close by, yes. There isn't much seating in the place but plenty of outdoor tables and such.

Tucked away in an adorable courtyard plaza, Gooey Looie's can be tough to find. But it's worth finding-- residual if you're really, really hungry. Prices are reasonable and portions are huge. The hoagie was packed with cold cuts. Husband loved it. The cheesesteak was HUGE. It's not greasy but not dry. It's a reliable cheesesteak.Bring cash. Staff are really nice. They have tables outside of the weather is good and you need to eat ASAP.

One of my favorite spots to get a sandwich and smuggle it in to Sixers game. Hefty sandwiches that is enough to share.

Tried this based on reviews. Ordered a cheesesteak. The meat wasn't great at all. So disappointed. Actually tossed half of it out.

Asked someone local where the best Philadelphia cheese steaks were and this was what they recommended. Definitely looks like a place to visit. As far as the cheese steak I would have to say it was just ok. Could be I came in wearing a Dodgers sweater and everyone working there appears to be huge Philly fans. It's all over the place. So can't say for sure. I can say I've had better

Great little sandwich shop with parking. Finely chopped steak in a philly roll. Would have preferred more cheese but sandwich was good! Friendly employees and locals sitting outside. Great place to go on a nice day to eat outside.

Authentic experience. We were visiting NYC and stopped here solely to grab a cheesesteak Philly Cheese Steak since it was on the way back home to DC. They have a sandwich shop in the back, and it operates like a mini market. You have a few guys in the back and taking orders - seems like the old school way of doing it.We got a large cheese steak with onions hot peppers, and it was real good. I think it could've used a bit of salt, but it was real good. I would've asked for extra cheese next time, and you can include things like mushroom, lettuce, tomato, etc.Definitely would recommend! The cheesesteak is enough for two.

You would never guess this little delicatessen style store was located in a small very cool mall area with a parking lot in South Philly. I had a burger while my daughter had a chicken salad on Rye. I disagreed with the Rye choice and had a playful banter with the 2 woman workers who disagreed with me on "their" Rye bread. I enjoyed every second of the South Philly lingo talk and our lunch too. Two sandwiches , 2 chips , and a soda for under $20 bucks. (this price included our 10 cent plastic bag )
