They have some pretty decent cheesesteaks for $10. I got their basic cheesesteak when they were parked right at NYU. It only took a minute to prepare…I'll have to try their combo next time!
It's hard to compare a cheesesteak from anywhere to ones from Philadelphia, but Gary's was a nice substitute. The truck was parked right near my work office on Old Slip in the FiDi and I had seen it there a number of times. I always saw a long line here so there must've been something good about it.
The menu was pretty simple with a few cheesesteaks on the menu (Mushroom Steak, Pizza Steak, Everything Steak) and French Fries for a side. Since it was my first time here, I thought I'd go with the original, the cheesesteak with grilled onions with cheese whiz on it. Compared to Philadelphia, the cheesesteak was much smaller, BUT the quality was really good! The bread was a bit thick, but there was plenty of steak and cheese whiz mixed in. The quality of the meat was good and I liked that they smothered it with a decent amount of whiz. I was also surprised at how much steak there was in the sandwich!
It was a solid cheesesteak and it's good to know that this option exists in the FiDi for lunch!
for $10 a sandwich, you should be expecting awesomeness. However, while tasty, this sandwich falls short of that. First off you get a slim hoagie that if hungry you can scarf down in 5 mins tops. The meat (broken up pieces) is juicy, but is not substantial. Most places where you get a cheesesteak offer a mammoth hero with loads of fillings.Also, it's great this is made to order, but the wait can be excruciating. Final verdict: this is a $8 sandwich tops.
