Decided to try Amato’s since craving Philly cheesesteak and was in the area. Service is good, menu has decent variety. Plenty of seating but it’s quite hot inside the restaurant so we took it to go. We ordered cheesesteak cheese fries with the works. It had a good amount of beef and cheese with onions, peppers and cheese wiz. It’s a good portion for the price. Came out to just under $20.

Best Italian sub I’ve had in town so far. The produce is super fresh and flavorful; and the bread is a perfect balance if not being too dense, nor too crumbly. The place has a hometown family own vibe.

5/5 Stars - Perfect Spot for a Hearty Lunch Amato’s is an absolute gem! The restaurant is clean and well-kept, with a tidy open kitchen that gives you full confidence in their food hygiene. Portions are generous—definitely enough to satisfy any appetite. The Philly cheesesteak was loaded with tender steak strips, perfectly melted cheese, and flavorful mushrooms. Each bite had the right balance of chewiness and rich, savory taste. The bread was soft and fresh, not too heavy, which made the sandwich even better. Service was fast and friendly, ideal for a lunch break. Plus, there’s plenty of parking, which makes it super convenient. Whether you're stopping by for work or just hungry for a solid meal, Amato’s hits the spot.

Potato skin is delicious! The Persian pizza is the best! It got lots of toppings, taste is really good and the quality is superb compared to other restaurant. Amato supreme is much lighter than the Persian pizza but it’s delicious. The customer service is also very good. We will come back again :)

Awesome comfort food. Consistently yummy, and nice service. We ordered a large "the works" and onion rings. The onion rings were crispy and great with ranch dressing. The sandwich was filled with meat, cheese, mushrooms, onions and bell pepper. We took home a quarter for parents to appreciate. They have chicken too besides beef, but that is the best part.

I'm somewhat new to amatos but have been pleasantly surprised. The sandwiches are very good and so are the fries. A friend has been going here his whole life and said it has always been delicious. The prices aren't great or horrible but average I guess. Worth a try.

4/5 for the beef hoagie and meatball sub. It was good for the price. Fresh ingredients but nothing special. Would come here again.

This spot is pretty damn delicious. Generous portions and a great value. Their cheese steaks are loaded with meat, although I would prefer a little more cheese in stock form. Overall, it's a solid establishment I would recommend visiting and this is definitely going into my lunch rotation.

The service was fast and friendly, and the portion size was generous. However, we found the meat to be lacking in flavor, and the cheesesteak didn’t quite measure up to the ones we’ve had in Philadelphia. It was decent, but didn’t capture that authentic Philly taste we were hoping for.

Decent shop with huge portions of OK quality food. The place is in need of a renovation. Nice people behind the counter were very helpful and friendly.

Pretty average. We found the steak under seasoned and bland. General consensus is that Steak and Shake is better. Crinkle cut fries are good. Interior has seen better days, parking can be tight.

Very, very disappointing cheesesteaks. We've been coming to Amato's for over 20 years now and have always loved them. Prior to today, we ate here three years ago. It was okay then, not great but just okay. Today wasn't good at all. We got three cheesesteaks and one order of fries for sixty dollars and really didn't enjoy them one bit. Our sandwiches were extremely dried out, almost burned without much cheese. I got "the works" with EXTRA cheese and mushrooms. I could barely find ANY mushrooms and the onions and bell peppers were over-cooked to oblivion. At home I had to open the sandwich up and spray water on the meat and reheat it in the microwave (I finally added some mayo, too). What happened to the screaming good cheesesteaks they used to make? They were so rich with gooey melted cheese with fresh veggies you could actually see and taste. They were highly reviewed with an excellent reputation and took pride in their food. I didn't see any of that today. Their prices have gone up but their quality has gone way down. A real bummer.

I was craving a good sandwich and have been to Charlie’s plenty of times in Orange County (Santa Ana and Orange), and I always love it, so I had high expectations for this place based on the reviews. Unfortunately, it was a total letdown and very disappointing. I ordered the Philly cheese, which was $25, and with the cheese fries it came out to almost $40 way overpriced for the quality. I didn’t even finish my sandwich the meat wasn’t cooked well, had a couple pieces of gristle in it, and was so tough I couldn’t even chew it, as you can see in the photo. The cheese fries were probably better at Wienerschnitzel. The fries had no flavor at all. Overall, not worth it. You’re better off going somewhere else if you’re craving a good sandwich. On top of that, they don’t even serve Coke only Pepsi products.
