Best Cheesesteak Ever!
My experience at this restaurant was outstanding. I had by far the best cheesesteak I’ve ever eaten, and the service was great as well. If you visit SF, this is definitely the place to go to. I 10/10 recommend it.

Great Sandwich and Vibes in the Marina
I was in the Marina looking for a place to watch the World Series and was thrilled to discover Jake’s. I had an amazing sandwich, which featured a garlic twist on the classic Philly. The vibes were even better. Junior, the bartender, was incredibly friendly and conversational, ensuring my glass was always full. I will definitely be returning the next time I'm in the Marina.

Authentic Philly Cheesesteak Delight
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I believe it's the best place in the city to get an authentic Philly cheesesteak. I opted for mine with their in-house made garlic spread, and it was absolutely delicious!

Amazing Philly Cheesesteak Experience!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, largely thanks to Junior's amazing service. He truly guided me through ordering a cheesesteak like a true Philadelphian. The hospitality was great, and the food was delicious. I will definitely come back!

Long Wait for Online Orders
My experience at the restaurant was marked by significant delays for online orders. Dashers were waiting for over 35 minutes to pick up orders, and during that time, I had not yet received my own order. The service was clearly struggling to keep up with online demand, leading to a very long waiting time for customers.

Addictive Cheesesteaks and Great Atmosphere!
My experience at this restaurant was transformative! I had the Original Philly Cheesesteak with Cheez Wiz, and it was exactly how it's supposed to be. I can honestly say I'll never put provolone on a cheesesteak again! These sandwiches are sooo good that I ate four of them in three days – they are truly addictive. The restaurant itself is quaint and lively, perfect for enjoying a cold draft beer while watching football. It's a really great place to hang out. The staff is attentive and prompt. I've tried cheesesteaks in TX and MO since eating here, and they don't even compare. Job well done!

Love Jake's Cheesesteaks!
My experience at Jake's has been consistently great. I often visit for a cheesesteak and a pint, and I'll definitely be back for many more. The food is excellent, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is fantastic.

Philly Cheesesteak Disappointment
I ordered a Philly cheesesteak for pickup via DoorDash and ended up eating outside the restaurant. I noticed a couple nearby who ordered the exact same thing. To my surprise, their sandwiches had double, if not triple, the amount of meat compared to mine. While she struggled to hold her generously filled sandwich, mine was disappointingly empty and mostly bread. The food quality, specifically the portion size of the meat, was a major letdown.

Classic Cheesesteak Just As Good
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I had the classic cheesesteak with cherry peppers and extra onions. It was just as good as I remember it. The food, service, and atmosphere all received a perfect score of 5.
