Most people call it the best in the city. The with provolone and broccoli rabe gets pushed just as hard, and the french are cooked in lard. It's expensive, about $50 for two subs and . Some find it a greasy mess drowned in cheese whiz, and regulars say quality swings visit to visit.

“Yeah—my experience was that my entire sandwich was doused in the cheese sauce, it fell apart, the meat was too chewy, and all I tasted was the Whiz.”

“The difference in sandwich size. The difference in bread quality. The difference in cheese (processed product, vs homemade cheese sauce)... Some of the reasons why it's difficult for me to fathom how anybody could prefer Federoffs over Angelo's.”

“Underwhelmed by it tbh. Maybe the expectations/price, but have been back a couple of times with same result. Not remotely a cheesesteak regular, but fed's just seemed like a greasy/cheesey mess that left me bloated as opposed to a delicious sammie. Barely conscious of the meat you're eating...”

“Been back a few times since and it's been a coin toss if I'll get the beautiful beefy cheese behemoth I encountered on my first visit, or just a slightly above average cheesesteak.”

“A+ rec and worth the trip. Not sure what they do to their steak, but had to be the freshest tasting I've had on a steak sub.”

“Fedoroff’s is incredible. I’m originally from just north of Philly and the owners are wonderful and from South Philly. They make excellent sandwiches and the fries are cooked in lard and absolutely delicious.”

“Their italian hoagie, roast pork, and cheesesteaks are all plenty legit.”

“Best Cheeseteak in the city, hands down.”

“I'll add another vote for Federoffs, but while you're there getting a cheesesteak, be sure to also try their roast pork sandwich with provolone and broccoli rabe. It's also amazing.”

“The best cheesesteak I’ve had is Federoff’s in Williamsburg.”
