May 27, 20223 yr I don’t think we have a dedicated thread, but if we do, just kill me and dump my body in a ditch. My favorite in Houston is still Pappa Geno’s. I keep on seeing ads on social media for Deen’s and Capriotti’s, but have not tried either. Anyone have some first hand experience? I think the last place I ate a cheesesteak at was Chimac. It’s a Korean/Korean fusion place in the NW burbs. I was underwhelmed (I do like their bowls). I’ll admit, I am picky. I cooked ch
May 27, 20223 yr Author I’ll admit, I am picky. I cooked chCheesesteaks at Tex on the drag in the late 90s. (Sorry the fucked up posting).
May 27, 20223 yr Deen’s has terrible reviews from anyone I know that’s been there. Jake’s on Chimney Rock was my jam back in the day when I wasn’t getting the Texican from Texadelphia.

I think the last times I ate at Jake’s was when they had a location on FM 1960 back in 2001. This was an especially shitty time in my life. I haven’t back to Jake’s since.
June 25, 20223 yr I can confirm on Jake’s cheesesteak. Best in the city by a wide margin. I went yesterday and it slammed. Edited June 25, 20223 yr by billfromlaketravis
June 30, 20223 yr Author I can confirm on Jake’s cheesesteak. Best in the city by a wide margin. I went yesterday and it slammed. I haven’t been in close to 20 years. Might need to fix that. But damn, Pappa Geno’s still had the goods.
July 21, 20223 yr Author I tried the Deen's out in Cypress. Not bad, not great. That is all I can really say.
July 28, 20223 yr Just started working near the Galleria for the first time in 14 years. Went over to Jake's today for lunch. Had fried pickle chips that were absolutely delicious. Ordered a cheesesteak with onions, jalapenos, and cheese whiz. It was as good as I remembered it being. Would absolutely go again.
