Pretty poor tasting pizza compared to other restaurants in the area. I've ordered a few times, and each time I'm disappointed.

I would give this place a -5 stars if I could. My wings were fried way too hard and there was a piece of hair in my food. I told the guy at the front counter and he was VERY rude after I nicely told him what happened. He seemed confused for some reason at what I was telling him. I asked for a refund and he told me no??? Then I asked if they could remake the food and he also said no! I couldn't believe he was acting like that. Don't waste your money here. The food isn't even that great.
I was also very upset at them for giving me all drums and no flats but that's no big deal compared to the service.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 10, 2019
This was my first time at Philly's Best and it was pretty good. My fries were a little bland, but my Cheesesteak was decent. I was a little disappointed that they didn't offer Cheese Whiz considering that's usually what comes on an actual Philly Cheesesteak but my sandwich was still good. Nowhere near Tony Luke's, Jim's, Max's or John's Roast Pork in Philadelphia good, but passable if I'm having a craving.
I would go backHelpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Sara W.Ellicott City, MD161Sep 7, 2022
I used to order from here all the time, then I got sick from the fried zucchini. I called to tell them because I didn't want anyone else getting sick and they refused to believe that it was their fault. No apology, no empathy, no action to fix a possible situation. I was disappointed with how they handled it. They lost my trust and respect. I do not order from there anymore.

The Only Review You Need To Read
My Mom heard this place had wonderful chicken wings. Though I'm not a fan of those per se, they did have a pretty extensive menu of other delicious-looking items, so we decided to give them a try.
We ordered the chicken quesadilla (the verdict was that Taco Bell is better). I got a cheeseburger sub, and allow me explain something. Back in the day when I was young and used to live on these, there was no In-N-Out or Shake Shack, so that was before I knew what really delicious burger patties tasted like. I wasn't blown away with this sub. I wasn't disappointed with it either; it was just a solid fine, as expected.
The onion rings were huge, crispy and tasty, as were the western fries. But the star of our entire order was something which admittedly seemed rather innocuous, but reasonable since this IS Maryland - cream of crab soup. It was very thick, still piping hot (after bringing it home) and so delicious! It's the best cream of crab soup I've had since The Crab Shanty closed down many years ago. Absolutely fantastic!
We definitely will be ordering from them again because of the cream of crab soup, but I am interested in trying out their pizza, wraps and other items. Definitely check this place out because the staff is very friendly, and by the way, did I mention their cream of crab soup?Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jerome M.Baltimore, MD72137Aug 17, 2022
Cheese fish was ok but what can you expect from out Columbia. They sell everything in that store so that's a plus , I've ate at this place a few times over all decent stop

NEVER order the shrimp salad!!!!! The worst...didn't know shrimp came that small....and when I expressed disappointment the staff member was arguing me down saying it doesn't SAY Jumbo shrimp. These were guppies....they have LOST our business forever!!!!! Totally gone downhill...

Seriously good pizza, good subs, I've cream in the summer, the menu is a mile long, but I haven't gotten anything bad yet! Good football Sunday food for sure.

Cool neighborhood place tucked away in a neighborhood center. We ordered pizza for office and it was exceptional! I went back another time to pick up a chicken and cheese sub. It was shredded chicken (different!) which made it both unique, tasty and easy to eat. The place itself has some tables to eat there, but the atmosphere is very casual.
