Philthy Philly's- Waterloo

UPDATE 06/23: Took three stars off for being ridiculously skimpy. I ordered their steak and cheese wrap and what I got was a sad, floppy, absolutely PATHETIC excuse for a wrap (see photo). Looks NOWHERE like the advertised portion. For $15, I expected the steak to be stuffed to the brim!!!! This is unacceptable, feels like I got deceived. Absolutely will not be returning here again.UPDATE 05/23: Took off one star as the quality and service just isn't the same ever since the store owner left. The current staff lacks the charisma that the original owner and staff had. Food quality isn't consistent. Cheese whiz now costs extra. And the store itself clearly has not been properly maintained over the years, everything looks run down.ORIGINAL REVIEW (2019): This is an awesome and highly underrated place that everyone should visit more often. Prices are fair, food is delicious, and service is beyond exceptional. And don't be afraid to say hi to the owner, he's a very nice and sociable guy!

Best late night sandwich and fast food in Waterloo. Great location and Staff. Open until 5am. Enjoy

If your looking for a snack il recommend the Philly cheese stake or wings. the hospitality here is unmatched in KW area. They were so nice and gave us deserts

Great food! Was fun to try something new, definitely would recommend if you want to have some fun with friends. Try their Phil up!

This one hurts to write, as the food tastes really good and is one of my favourites for Philly cheese steak sandwich. Pulled pork poutine is good. However you can tell they are being very stingy with the toppings and meat. I paid $12 for a 5inch and I finished it in like 3 bites. When he handed me the bag I thought it was empty, that’s how lightweight it was :( I drove 30 min to get it. Not how I remember these. Disappointed in the change of owners, you can tell the inside of the restaurant is not clean or maintained well, smells funny like dirty mop water, floors were very sticky and oily, walls look run down, just gave me an icky feel. I’ve was craving the Philly sandwich again but I can’t justify paying $20 for the 12 inch if its going to be skimpy again. Might try again in a few months hopefully things improve cause the taste is bomb

We tried 3 different poutine options and this was our first time ordering from Philthy Philly's. The food was hot and very tasty, the regular portion was enough for 2 meals. Very filling. We will definitely be back.

I ordered from Philthy Philly's and overall I'm happy but some of the items weren't a hit with me.First I got the poutine, it was really good and one of the best poutine I've ever had. I'm not crazy by the fries as a poutine but they are good fries overall and I would get this poutine again for sure.Second I got the puff daddy's, in two flavours: cinnamon sugar and smores.First the cinnamon were really nice, reminded me of fair food and it was good but a little too soft and almost soggy-like in the center, you have to eat these piping hot, which I did not but I liked them overall.Then the smores were even nicer than the cinnamon sugar ones, they were so rich with chocolate and the toppings of graham cracker, chocolate sauce and marshmallows that were a lovely addition. I thought it was a LITTLE too chocoaltely for me but out of preference. I couldn't eat as many of these as the other ones but I'd get them again though for sure.Third I got the peppercorn steak poutine, it was pretty good, there was kick to the steak, pretty good steak and overall not a bad poutine, I just think I much prefer regular poutine and I don't know if I'd get it again.Fourth I got a bacon cheeseburger. The burger was pretty good in texture and taste, it was juicy and I enjoyed the fresh toppings, I would consider getting it again but it's just nothing impressive burger-wise.Lastly I got the Chipotle Mayo Cauliflower Bites. This is my first time trying any cauliflower bites and honestly I'm not happy. The breading is pretty good but the cauliflower has the taste and texture of fishless fish, it's not good for me with a texture issue and I would NOT get them again. (Mind you these were 9 dollars, I felt ripped off.) I wanted to note though, the chipotle mayo was good but nothing amazing, though had a nice kick of spice and that I would eat it again with other menu items, maybe on the burger or plain fries.

I highly recommend coming in at night shift when going, the customer service is amazing. The cashier always greets me and my friends greatly every time. It makes me want to come here even more. It’s always clean and the food is great. And it comes quick we never have to wait too long. Highly recommend

This is somehow two orders of popcorn chicken for $23. They were room temperature Jane’s popcorn chicken. I’ve ordered many times before and it used to be great. What happened? Poutine was pretty good.

I used to come here occasionally because of the daily deals, but today I paid $10.16 for this tiny slice of cheesecake. $10.16!! The entire menu is overpriced, and neither the taste nor the quality make up for the amount you spend. It’s unfortunate because the location is good and they have decent vegetarian options otherwise :/
