Figueroa Philly Cheese Steak

Los Angeles

Sandwich Spot

$$$$

It should come as no surprise that this family-owned shop is the keeper of the best cheesesteak in LA: not only do they use ribeye meat instead of sirloin in their sandwiches (which, any Philly native will tell you, is a crucial difference), they ship actual Amoroso hero rolls in from Philadelphia every day to ensure authenticity. Each item on the extensive menu costs less than $10, which makes it a popular haunt for broke USC students or people seeking a solid lunch meal on a budget around the Colosseum.
