Phat Philly's NZ

"The bun had a fusion kind of taste to it—almost like a bao bun. It did not taste like authentic American hoagie bread. I'm not sure if there's supposed to be a Chinese/Vietnamese spin to this but it does not work with the Philly Cheesesteak. The meat also lacked flavour and lacked juiciness. The cheese was too artificial and felt more like a cheese sauce rather than authentic cheese. The onion tasted bland. Service was good as they use the simple ring machine and cutlery/napkins were conveniently provided, with plenty of seating"

"Ordered via Ubereats and received a soggy mess. Don’t get me wrong the flavors are there but the beef was chewy, the bread was burnt and the size did not justify paying almost $20 for it. The fries were yumm but super cold too. And finally the chicken was dried out as if it was over cooked. Unfortunately having had a Philly Cheesesteak in America I was hoping to find something here that compares but this was just not worth it."

"We had the Full Phat and Italian Phat with chips to dine in. Service was great, and food came out fast, I only ordered a side of chips for one, but they loaded us up for both anyway. Meal also came with beef broth for dipping. Hoagies were awesome!! Chips were crunchy, and the broth brought it all together. Best sandwich I've had in a while, and if you haven't made a mess, you ain't eating a hoagie!"

"This is a great place for "cheap eats". Spent $60 for 2 hungry foodies who wanted to try more than one meal. Absolutely love the Philly steak combo, chips are so crispy and well salted. The spicy chickens are so so moist and full of flavour! Tacos were good but definitely couldn't match the Philly steak and chicken we had. Such a great vibe and just around the bend there is a lovely dumpling and cider store for the cider lovers out there. Must try a rose cider by Morningside, that is refreshing! Service was polite and helpful with suggestions. You must try! On a busy day parking would be a bit difficult."

"They have recently opened so wanted to try them out. They are located in a small shop front with a covered outdoor area. The menu isn't very big so it was easy to get one of each. They had menus and cutlery on the tables but you order up at the counter. The sandos were decently sized. The full and good phat tasted very similar even with the full one having thin slices of beef. Both had a huge amount of cheese on the side/on top. The bread was quite soft even though it was toasted. The sliders were nice and also covered with cheese. I did like the crust on the patties since it gave it a nice crunch. The fried chicken was quite nice and crispy. The sauces were nice and the fairly large pieces of chicken kept their crispness."
