Why Taste of Philly Earns the “Best in Colorado” Title
What makes Taste of Philly stand out in Colorado’s food scene? It’s simple: their focused dedication to the Philly Cheesesteak. While many Colorado restaurants offer a cheesesteak on their menu, Taste of Philly makes it their absolute priority. It’s not just an afterthought; it’s the heart and soul of their business. This specialization is rare and makes a noticeable difference.
It might seem unusual to declare a chain restaurant as the best, but my experience transcended the typical “chain” feel. Stepping inside, it felt like discovering a genuine, local gem. To truly gauge their offering, I went straight for the classic, the original Philly Cheesesteak. They offer both regular and large sizes.
For most appetites, the regular size is definitely generous. And I consider myself to have a substantial appetite! The regular eight-inch Philly Cheesesteak from Taste of Philly kept me completely satisfied for the entire day. Seriously, it was the only meal I needed – I was that full and content.
