George's Steak N Things — Restaurant in Burke

i have scoured the greater Fairfax County area over the past 4 months in search of the best Cheesesteak Sub. I can confidently say, I have found it at Georges Steak n Things. I rate my Cheesesteak Subs in 4 areas:

Presentation: See picture below. this place is your classic, no frills shop. also its a cheesesteak, so no reason to fancy it up too much. it looks like a cheesesteak. nice crispy toasted bread with ample fillings. 5/5

Next is Taste: for this order i had the Cajun Chicken version. Cajun added a touch that just set this sub apart from your traditional cheesesteak without going overboard. additional ingredients were good. would have preferred a better tomato, but that's just nit picking. 4.5/5

Price: you can get a chicken sub combo for 9.99 (6'') perfect for a lunch time meal. I had the 12" which ran about 16.50 with fries and a drink + tip. times are touch and food is expensive, but for the most part i think its a fair deal 4.5/5.

last and MOST IMPORTANT (along with taste of course) Handling: my biggest pet peeve is trying to pick up an over stuffed, sloppy, wet cheesesteak sub. But let me tell you, Georges has perfected this area. the filling was juicy, and full flavored while the bread held its integrity through the entire meal. I mean, it was downright impressive how well the sandwich held together, from first bite to last, it had a crunchy bite all the way through. easy 5/5.

overall 4.8 on my personal rating and my go to for steak and cheese for the foreseeable future.

Honorable Mention: the Fries. SUPER crispy battered, fries that pair perfectly with the sub. wish i had more but for the price i think i was given a good amount. (i had already devoured 50% of them before...

I visited Georges Steak N Things yesterday for the first time! The entire staff was very pleasant and the customer service was unmatched. The owner was so pleasantly friendly and welcoming and running that family business like a well oiled machine. I could tell that this place is ran with love because the customers were giving us recommendations and have all been loyal customers for many years.

They have a diverse menu and the prices are very reasonable. They are known for their cheese steaks which have been going viral on TikTok, so I had to try it. The atmosphere was so chill and the Philly cheese steak was so goood! No disappointments. My order was a decent size and there was little to no wait time, and I could see the chef actively cooking my order. Wow. The meat was juicy, well seasoned and all of the vegetables were fresh and the bread had a beautiful little crisp on the outside but soft and delicious inside 🤤. The Cajun cheese steaks were just as good and bursting with flavor in every bite. The French fries were fresh, hot, crispy and flavorful.

And to top it off the desserts were so yummy. They have freshly made baklava that is so good. I ate mine with a cup of hot tea while watching a movie, so chill, so good. The rich everything chocolate, chocolate cake was every chocolate lovers dream and my husband couldn’t stop raving about the key lime pie. I can’t believe this was my first time visiting, but it won’t be my last! Wow, 10/10 I highly recommend. They also deliver on grubhub all...

I’ve visited this restaurant several times in the past, even though I’ve always found the food to be fairly average. Recently, while making a quick stop next door at Advance Auto, I ran in hoping to use the restroom. I was immediately told there were no public restrooms—which I understand may be policy. I then offered to purchase a drink, thinking that would resolve the issue, but the manager refused with a simple shake of the head.

What surprised me most wasn’t the policy itself, but the complete lack of empathy or courtesy in how it was handled. I was clearly in a rush and willing to make a purchase, yet the response felt unnecessarily dismissive. In all my experiences dining out, this was the first time I’ve ever been treated this way. Unfortunately, due to how the situation was managed, I won’t be returning.

Sorry that you feel this way, but I absolutely have eaten in your establishment before. I think that offering to purchase something would have made me a customer…. I stood there typing to distract myself since the gentleman was replacing a battery...
