I saw this place recommended countless times in Maryland internet groups as being one of the best cheesesteaks in the state. I’d say that I agree and I can see why so many people are recommending it. It’s the epitome of a damn good “hole in the wall” cheesesteak place

Really phenomenal sandwich, definitely a standout in the greater Baltimore area. The guys working were fun and friendly, definitely made everyone smile. We came for dinner but I’d bet this would be a perfect post beer option.

The Cheesesteak was absolutely phenomenal. Recently I’ve had bad experiences with Cheesesteaks from other spots because they lack flavoring the actual steak. Not @ The Real Thing… the meat was seasoned and then my man added that special hot sauce, wow! The roll was so soft, light & fluffy… I was told that the onion rings were homemade… well they were delicious as well, nice and crispy how I like them. I would definitely recommend and rate The Real Thing for the top cheesesteak in Towson. Follow more reviews @IG: Robthefoodguy @eat_n_critique

If you haven’t been…you are missing out. This place is delicious. I think it’s the best cheese steak I’ve ever had. It’s so well seasoned! The place is pretty quaint. The man working was incredibly nice. It was a fun, fast & delicious food option. And they get extra points for being so kind to my kids. Oh and yes they liked the cheese steaks too. Ate it all up.

DO NOT GO TO THIS HOLE IN THE WALL!!! Half of the items on the menu they don’t have!!! They advertise a shrimp sub but they don’t have shrimp. Onion rings??? Nope!!! So we ordered chicken cheese steaks with provolone cheese, and got cheesesteak with American cheese. I called, someone finally picked up after the 6th time, and the guy was so rude and hung up on me….won’t be getting my money again!!! Best cheesesteak, mehhhh, mediocre at best…They get no stars from me…even though I had to select one…

Even though I haven’t eaten in the restaurant, everytime I’ve gone in, there has been a neighborhood local just hanging out. The owner is clearly adored and the food is SO good!! So far it’s the best cheesesteak I’ve found in the area

One of the top cheesesteak spots in Towson! This place really has the atmosphwre of an authentic Philly steak shop right in the heart of Towson. The owner was very cool and funny. The food was great! The only thing i would do is lower the prices just a tad. Not becauss the food isnt good, but because it limits the amount of money i can have to keep going back at a good frequency. LOL. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a good cheesesteak sub. No hots!
