The ORIGINAL cheesesteak place! Pat's King of Steaks was the very first and creator's of The Philadelphia Cheesesteak. A few years later Geno's came along and supposedly perfected the cheesesteak. We prefer Pat's as Geno's has been known to be outwardly racist. We also prefer pat's due to the flaky and crunchy french fries as well as the perfectly baked bread.
