Taste Of Philly Information

Tucked along South Colorado Boulevard, Taste Of Philly delivers exactly what its name promises, and then some. Walking in, the space feels unpretentious and welcoming, the kind of neighborhood spot where the focus is clearly on the food rather than flashy decor. The location makes it an easy stop whether you’re a local running errands nearby or just passing through Denver and craving something hearty and satisfying.

The first thing that stands out on the menu is the lineup of classic Philly cheesesteaks, and it’s obvious they take this seriously. The bread has that slightly crisp exterior with a soft, chewy inside that holds up well against the generous fillings. The steak is thinly sliced, well-seasoned, and cooked just enough to stay tender without getting greasy. Pair it with grilled onions, peppers, and melted cheese, and you’ve got a sandwich that feels authentic without trying too hard. It’s the kind of bite that reminds you why this style of sandwich has such a loyal following.

Beyond the cheesesteaks, the menu offers a solid variety of comfort food staples. The hoagies are stacked high, and the wings come out hot and flavorful, with sauces that don’t overpower the meat. Even the fries deserve a mention-crispy, well-salted, and a perfect sidekick to the main dishes. It’s clear that the kitchen keeps things simple but consistent, which is often what separates a good diner from a forgettable one.

Service here leans toward friendly and efficient. Orders come out quickly, and staff seem used to a steady flow of regulars, which usually says a lot about a place. During a recent visit, there was a noticeable mix of customers-students, families, and workers on lunch breaks-all of whom seemed to know exactly what they were there for. That kind of repeat traffic tends to reflect well in reviews, and it aligns with what you’d expect from a spot that’s built a reputation over time.

While it may not be a fine dining experience, that’s not the point. Taste Of Philly fits comfortably into the category of reliable, satisfying comfort food. If there’s any limitation, it’s that the menu sticks closely to its theme, so those looking for lighter or more diverse options might find fewer choices. Still, for anyone craving a solid cheesesteak or a casual, no-fuss meal in Denver, this place hits the mark in a way that feels both genuine and dependable.

What People's Say About Place

If I'm being honest, I wasn't expecting much from this place. The interior and exterior looked pretty rough, but I'm always willing to give local chains a shot. Overall, I was really impressed with how my cheesesteak tasted! As a Philadelphian, I'm very picky about my sandwiches. This place immediately my caught my attention because they use Liscio rolls. Not quite Amoroso, but a close second. Then I saw that they offer a whiz as an option. Keep your opinion on it, but the fact that they offer it made it that much more authentic. Another important thing to note: they placed the cheese on the bread first before adding the meat, which may seem small but makes a huge difference. The taste was also fantastic. 4.5/5 Stars. I would have given a full five if they had Amoroso vs Liscio.

I drive by this place all the time. The Philly place by me closed so I decided to give them a chance. They were not busy when I went. My food came out super fast. I was surprised how fast. Order it to go. The fries were pretty good. Nice n crispy and still hot when I got home. The sandwich was way better then my old place. Id definitely come back again when im craving a Philly cheese steak. I would recommend this place

Original location going strong! The owner/manager was extremely friendly, and the food hit the spot! Have been craving a chicken Philly for some time now & haven’t found a place that satisfies… How’d I forget about Taste of Philly? Just a really good quality philly - bread was semi soft, ingredients were fresh! If you’re looking for a Philly, you gotta get one from here! Thank you!

Friendly service. Had the original, good bread steak is good although a little salty. Closer in taste to one in Philadelphia than other places offering it in Denver. Hanks black cherry was okay. Nice selection of music playing. Furniture a little beat up, floors are sticky,

Great Philly at a reasonable price. The inside of the store needs a little TLC, but you can't deny that they make some of the best Cheesesteaks around. I got the original with no onions, mayonnaise, and extra cheese. It was really good and not too greasy and not runny at all. If you're in the area I'd stop by if you wanted a good lunch.

Went in for a sandwich. It was close to closing time, but they still helped myself and a buddy of mine. Ordered the Mushroom Philly. Good quality sandwich , considering how friendly they were when they were getting ready close speaks to something. I'll be back for sure.

Our group Had the green chili cheesesteak, the club sandwich, and the hand and cheese. Everything was great and the folks could not have been nicer. Atmosphere is simple, but it works. Ridiculous that other reviews are blaming them for the sidewalk!?

It almost upsets me how good this food is. I come from New York City bodegas, and taste of Philly is better. They are doing something right…
