Uncle Sam's Submarines - Pittsburgh

However, there are a couple of quirks about this place: 1) Fries are included with your sub if you dine in, but if you order it to go, you'll have to pay for fries separately. This policy seems a bit strange. 2) The restaurant only accepts cash. There is an ATM on-site, but just keep in mind their cash-only policy. Personally, I find this a bit inconvenient, though it seems that Pittsburgh has more cash-only restaurants than other places I've been. Despite these two points, the food is still good, the service is relatively quick, and the space is large enough that finding a seat shouldn't be a problem.

Great Subs. Probably the best cheese steak you'll find in Pittsburgh. I enjoy all of their locations. I do not enjoy their cash-only policy, however.

Mmm. Fries.. Their fries are great. The sandwiches are great for lunch. They are large enough that you can eat half and take half home for dinner. Prices are reasonable, as well.

Surprised! After leaving the Squirrel Hill library, I realized I was hungry and just wanted a sandwich, a comfortable chair, and a table to enjoy my paperback mystery. I decided to head over to Uncle Sam's, but I didn't have high expectations (no pun intended). I was prepared for a mediocre sub, but to my delight, I really enjoyed my cheesesteak. The sub was large and packed with fried onions, green peppers, hot peppers, and plenty of steak. The generous portion of fries made me feel a bit guilty as I devoured them, doused in ketchup. The young staff at the ordering counter were polite and efficient, and the prices were reasonable considering the size of the portions. Sure, it's not the healthiest option out there, but once a year, one can indulge in some extra calories. In short, Uncle Sam's was really impressive!

I absolutely love this place! I've tried their cheesesteaks in various styles, as well as their veggie subs, and each one has been delicious! The bread is always soft and flavorful. Uncle Sam has never let me down! It's affordable and incredibly tasty.
