\"Tony<\/a>
\nWILDWOOD CREST, N.J. —<\/strong>I have been trying to sample all the main Philly Cheesesteak places over the last few years, but I don’t get to the city of brotherly love that often. Judging by the Tony Luke’s Web site<\/a>, a lot of the growing chain’s appeal is built around the personality of Tony \u201cLuke\u201d Lucidonio Jr an Philly actor, singer and now entrepreneur. I had heard good things about his cheesesteaks though and a visit was on my list for a few years. I overheard a location in the Wildwoods was opening this summer, I figured I would have a chance to stop on my way out of Stone Harbor this summer.<\/p>\n

\"Cheesesteak<\/a>
\nTony Luke’s is unusual in that it doesn’t use Amoroso rolls like most cheesesteak places. The rolls are of higher quality, so that isn’t a bad thing. The meat is lean and not too greasy. Since I’m a tourist, I ordered mine with Cheese Whiz. Overall, I’d rate it a close second to Jim’s Steak’s.<\/p>\n

\"Roast<\/a>
\nIn addition to the cheesesteak, we split a roast pork sandwich which some Philadelphians seem prouder of than the traditional cheesesteak<\/a> (The Inky)<\/em>. While that is not going to happen, the roast pork sandwich is a good meal. The lean shaved pork and spices work well together and my wife says the broccoli rabe works — I don’t care for broccoli, so I’ll take her word for it. I can see why people would elevate the roast pork sandwich over the humble, fatty cheesesteak. I have craved cheesesteaks before though and that can’t be said about the roast pork sandwich.<\/p>\n

We also got a chicken cheesesteak for some reason (probably for the 3 year old) and well, it was chicken breast with cheese. Not worth the money, nothing you couldn’t do at home if you felt like having a bland meal.<\/p>\n

We’ll probably make hitting Tony Luke’s on the way out from future trips down the Shore.<\/p>\n
