Go Louise absolutely positively has the best sandwiches anywhere in South Philly or anywhere else they make sandwiches.

I’ve got the cheesesteak from Gooey Looie’s, all I can eat is a half a sandwich and I’m not a little guy. Absolutely delicious! The Italian hoagies are absolutely the best! The meat is so fresh. The vegetables are so fresh and the bread is so fresh! What else can you ask for When you’re going to lunch or dinner. Hand style I give them five stars and I’ve got everywhere in the city to try sandwiches. Gooey Looie’s truly number one! I’m sure you’ll think so too.

The best customer service! Everyone was extremely patient and delightful! Food was fresh and delicious. Two people can share a large cheesesteak. My kids had the cold deli sandwich! They ate it up!

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.

It’s in a little strip mall… The cheesesteaks are the BEST! They put Pat’s and EVERYONE else to shame! If I’m traveling anywhere in the Rt. 95 corridor of Philly, my car knows it’s way there (with a little help from GPS)

But, they make you type more. These people need to get out more. Their typical Philly attitude goes into each Cheesesteak and hoagie.

So, come get told off and made to feel, ya know, full of that work.

GooeyLooey, I will always come back for another two. One no onion..
