PJ's Steaks - West Banks

Have been visiting this place since it opened and it has never disappointed a craving. The subs are a guilty please, I personally prefer them with plenty of all 3 sauces. Fries and sweet potato fries are great too! Probably recommend sharing one between two unless you really love fries.

One of the few places in West End that we always consider as a good option. One of it's main catches is that it focuses on a dish that's not very common in Brisbane so it'll give you some good variety if you're tired of the usual lunch or dinner; the Cheesesteaks themselves don't look too large when you first get them but the mix of pure beef and a good serving of cheese makes it quite a hefty meal. We've tried quite a few, and personally find most of them to be quite good depending on what you're after, for the cheese we certainly favour Provolone as it's one of the most traditional and the flavour does not overwhelm the rest of the meal. One of the things you absolutely MUST have when you go there are their Onion rings, fantastic size and seasoning and perfectly cooked, definitely worth the price if you're a fan of them. Their chips are so-so but other thing we really enjoy (and sometimes crave more than the cheesesteak themselves) is their chilli fries as it's simply a great treat. In regards to their Hot Dogs, sadly that's the only thing we can't get behind unless they bring back the lunch/Tuesday specials, they are basically the same as if you made them at home but with a large price tag, I'd generally say don't bother, it's their small 'trap' menu I'd say. The last thing I can comment on food-wise is that they have an interesting mix of American drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, so if you're there why not have some Dr. Pepper? The locale itself is pretty nice, although a bit tight it's still got a good layout for you to have your meal, I wouldn't say it's the best place to eat for a long time as there's only a couple tables inside and a couple out, but it's definitely good enough for lunch or a quick dinner before/after drinks and they certainly try to appeal with their American-style decor (and usually always have some US-inclined sport on their TV)

The onion rings were great but like previous reviewers have said, the Cheesesteaks were bland and disappointing. Grilled mushrooms instead of canned mushrooms would have been nicer. Fresher ingredients would go a long way.

Best Philly cheesesteaks I've had outside of America. Super cheesy and delicious. The onion rings were crisp on the outside and sweet inside. Decent range of sauces to add to your meal! I'm really glad I checked them out.
