Chink's Steaks

For the past six decades, Chink's Steaks has been serving the finest cheesesteaks in Philadelphia, and its surrounding areas.  It began in 1949 when the original owner, Samuel "Chink" Sherman, opened a steak shop in the northeast section of Philadelphia.  As a young boy, Chink mastered the art of making cheesesteaks while working at the renowned Pat's Steaks.


After forty-six years of his hard work and dedication, Chink retired from the business.  Shortly after his resignation Chink passed away.  Before he passed, he designated Joe as the new owner.  Joe worked for Chink for over twenty years.  He began his career at Chink's, in his early childhood, cutting meat and peeling onions in the basement.  When Joe became the official owner of Chink's Steaks, he vowed to run the business in the same traditional manner "Chink" once did.

The "Steak"



Chink's use fresh "ribeye" steak, cut fresh daily, and fresh rolls from Liscios Bakery.  The amount of meat that Chink's gives you on their steak is unmatched, with one steak being more than enough for the average or above average eater.  The steak isn't chopped up, it's simply cooked and the cheese is thrown on.  Just as important as the meat, the roll is phenomenal,  a roll from Liscio's Bakery compliments the fresh rib-eye perfectly.   With a variety of cheeses to choose from; American, Provolone, and the *new addition whiz, Chink's is sure to have your taste-buds screaming for more!

The "Shake"


  If Chink's Steaks isn't the best or most recognized Cheesesteak Shop in Philadelphia, It is definitely the most complete-shop there is.  Along with a mammoth-sized cheesesteak, you have the option of ordering a towering milkshake!  And let me tell you folks, these shakes are the best around!  I recommend the chocolate-banana milkshake.
