Philly Vienna — Restaurant in Vienna

Good Philly Cheesesteaks!

As we were walking in this area, I joked to my daughter that I wanted a good Philly Cheese as everyone knows Vienna is famous for them, we both laughed at that statement and kept walking. 5 minutes later we stopped dead as we saw this Philly Cheesesteak restaurant! While we hadn't indended to actually find a Philly for lunch, we decided we had to stop in due to the previous joking about it. We were not disappointed!

We paid for the double cheese and wow, it was a lot of cheese, good for me, a bit much for my daughter.

We had the cheese fries and Mac n cheese side dishes, they were each a portion to almost consider a meal on their own! The two of us ate most of it, we definitely didn't go...

I'm writing this a month after I was discharged from the hospital for gastroenteritis caused by salmonella infection. The chicken sold here was either undercooked or contaminated with something that handled raw chicken (but it seemed a bit undercooked, so that was probably it).

Also, I was born and raised in Philadelphia. The food is not very authentic and it's mid at best. The mac 'n' cheese was really bad too (the cheese should be mixed with the macaroni, not drizzled on top of plain macaroni lol). I was super excited to try this place out, but after the disappointing food and 4-day hospital stay, I would definitely not recommend this...

It's a small takeaway near Karlsplatz with few seating possibilities. The items on menu are just sufficient. The interior and choice of furniture is rather weird,that's a bit of turnoff.

The person on counter who took order was friendly. Serving time was about 10 minutes.

We ordered a Mexican wrap and a burger. The burger was good, the wrap tasted more like shwarma. Overall food was of acceptable taste but nothing extra ordinary or unique. Together with drinks and a portion of fries paid 30€ - usual price on would pay at such a place close to city center.

Overall 3/5, decent place but probably won't...
