Went from a far place to try the cheesesteak and was disappointed the beef felt like theres no seasoning the cheese sauce tasted like mashed potatoes the bread was mushy

Hubby and I were looking for a good beef dip and they did not disappoint! So flavourful, tender, nice buns. Au jus was on point too. The sandwiches are huge. Mac and cheese with pork was also amazing!

Loved this place! A lot of comfort food to choose from. I had the Mac and cheese and it was delicious! The young adults working the counter had a lot going on and were doing their best on a busy night! I’d return for sure.

I’ve eaten here before and was happy with the food. I have family in town and I wanted to share a good experience with them. However, now I’m embarrassed. My aunt felt that the young woman had a bad attitude. The staff was impatient with her when my aunt asked questions about the menu. Anyway, the food came out cold. We had to ask staff to warm up our sandwiches which is not fair, considering we paid over 100$ in food. The staff forgot soup, and the young woman said, “oh shit”. The two young men were pleasant and helpful. It’s 745 pm Friday, September 30.Thank you!Edit - we needed lids and staff were no where to be seen. We tried to call for them and my cousin walked into the kitchen area to get their attention to be told “don’t step back here”. We wouldn’t have to cross the boundary if the staff were upfront and available. They were in the back on their phones. I think staff need to be supervised with someone more responsible.

The food from Cowtown is amazing. The staff unfortunately ruins this place. I have received the wrong order, over 10 separate times in a year period. The beef dip is delicious, but it rarely arrives as ordered. No point in ordering online, you have to go in and watch them make the order correct. Last time I tried to do this in person, I was equally disappointed as the guy behind the counter was so incredibly high, he could barely speak. They are suspiciously willing to just offer you a free meal due to the messed up order, which would lead one to believe this happens daily. As much as I love this place, there is no point in spending money at a restaurant who cares nothing about quality and consistency. Great food, if you get what you order 1% of the time. STAY AWAY.

I think this is one of those love it or hate it places. I got the beef dip twice, and felt it was good but not great. The beef tastes of quality, but the dipping sauce (jus) was bland. Portions are small but the price is reasonable. One of the few good late night eating options this far south!

The boys running the shop Friday night were awesome. They remembered all the toppings I asked for, including the sauces on the side. They cut one sandwich in three for my kids to share, and put them all on their own plate. Then they asked if we would all like some water, got us cups and brought it all out to us. It was such a pleasant experience. Plus the playoffs were on the TV.The smoked beef sandwich was great, get the cranberry sauce. The ceaser salad was a tad too spicy/tangy but still good.

Used them for a corporate event. The communication, set up and most importantly the food was AMAZING. It’s hard to find something that will satisfy 300 different palettes but this restaurant outdid themselves! Great experience and would recommend Chris and his amazing catering skills to anyone! They were also excellent in catering any of our people with allergies!!

Not sure what's wrong with the people who gave this place bad reviews. Service was fast and great, the horseradish aioli was amazing. Bread was perfectly toasted and the meat was delicious and not dry at all. The dip is out of this world! No complaints, just a full belly for a good price.

We spoke with the owner at length and found him to be very friendly and knowledgeable. We also very much enjoyed the high quality food and found that while it was more expensive than Subway there was very good reason for that. The food is actually handmade, mostly 24-hour smoked meat high quality food and not mass produced.
