I don't even bother with sonic anymore. The quality at the Wallingford one has been terrible. I gave up on them the day I got a slush that was basically liquid. Does anyone know if they have onion rings yet? It's been at least a year since I've been able to order them.

The Philly grill in Waterbury has been good. Have had a couple misses there more recently. But durning the height of COVID I realized my wife and I grabbed a cheesesteak from there six weeks in a row. Of course, you have to goto Waterbury. But you can get right back on 84. It’s a block from the mall.

I grew up just outside of Philly and can be a bit picky. My wife has really been enjoying the one she’s been getting at brgrko in hamden lately. But I am a bit turned off by any place calling it a steak and cheese.

Philly native here, if they call it a “Philly cheese steak” usually it’s not a good time. if someone compares them to Genos/pats, That’s also a red flag (only tourist go there). The biggest problem with CTs cheesesteaks and hoagies are the rolls.

That being said I have nothing helpful to add lol, I get my fix when I visit home. If anyone from Philly knows a good place I’d love to try!
