Here is our list of the best cheesesteaks we’ve had so far in Seaside Heights this summer. The meatiest, cheesiest, & tastiest on or off the Boards!
There’s just something about Seaside Heights and a good sloppy cheesesteak in the summertime. Recently we ranked the Best Sausage And Pepper Sandwiches On The Seaside Boardwalk for 2024. While we kept that list strictly to the boardwalk, the best cheesesteaks in Seaside Heights have to include some favorites off the boards. They simply cannot and will not be overlooked!
Criteria
When it comes to the best cheesesteaks in Seaside Heights, quality is king. Just because it’s a cheesesteak, doesn’t mean the joint should skimp on the good meat. Fresh chopped ribeye might cost more than frozen Steak Umm, but it makes for a better sandwich, let’s be honest. Besides, everything is expensive nowadays so you’re going to pay top dollar regardless. Might as well get the best!
Another big factor in ranking the best cheesesteaks in Seaside Heights is the cheese factor! It’s gotta be oooey gooey for sure, but it has to be more than just crappy cheese sauce. This is one part of what separates one steak place from another in Seaside. Cooper Sharp is a perfect example of a great melting cheese for steaks. The other part, for me at least, is the onion factor. Listen, a fat kid like me will eat a cheesesteak anyway. I’ll take it Cali style with LTO, or the works with fried onion, peppers, and mushrooms. I’ll even go all steak pizzaiola on your ass with fresh mozz and sauce! However, for the straight-on cheesesteak “wit” as they say in Philly, I want my onions grilled/fried, and diced, so they melt into the sandwich.
