Fred's Downtown Philly - Allen

Tasty. Good quality beef in their sandwiches. Decent fries and onion strips. Good hot sauce and ranch. Prompt service. Recommended.

This restaurant offers a very traditional diner feel and has a very wide variety of options on the menu. They also have specials for each day of the week. I had the Fat Fred, which is essentially a Philly Cheesesteak in the shape of a burger on a soft twist roll. It was very tasty, and I would recommend it for someone trying the place for the first time. The fries that came with it are average, but they also have sweet potato fries, which are excellent, and crab fries, which have seafood seasoning. The Fred's House Sauce is extremely good, and I recommend it over ketchup on the fries and cheesesteaks. It is sweeter and lighter than ketchup and goes well with everything they serve.

Craving a philly cheesesteak did a Google search this place popped up. Ordered the Fat Burger which is a cheeseburger with philly meat on top. And ordered the #2 'Philly cheesesteak ' #8 'Mushroom cheesesteak ' both 10in with an order of spicy mozzarella sticks. The burger was on special that day (Saturday). Everything was good the cheese is on the bottom I wish it was on top and bottom, the philly was pretty dry. I ordered double meat so not sure if that was the reason. Would order again with extra cheese. Young kids working everyone was nice however I did notice the person working the grill had no gloves on. My fave part of the meal was the spicy mozzarella sticks they had jalapenos in the breading which also had some spicy seasonings will definitely order those ever time we visit.

Good food. They don't want to follow covid requirements so you can't eat in

Great food, decent atmosphere. If you're looking for a fantastic cheese steak sandwich, I don't think it gets much better. Meat is tender, great seasoning, and the best bread! My only issue is how the place looks and the setup of the dining area. The chairs are uncomfortable, the tablecloths are a bit worn out, it's not a place a want to sit and eat at. The food is absolutely fantastic, which is why I keep going back, but I wish the owners would drop a bit of on the dining experience.
