If you’re a fan of American gastronomy, you’re probably already familiar with the famous Philly-style meat and cheese sandwiches, brought to our capital by the Delphi Cheesesteaks restaurant.
Delphi Cheesesteaks will be one year old next March and there are already many foodies who can’t do without a trip to Rua da Glória 47, very close to Avenida da Liberdade and Praça da Alegria, to try the restaurant’s specialties: the delicious Philly Cheesesteak, which is just one of the most emblematic dishes of the city of Philadelphia, in the United States of America.
In love with Lisbon
The story of this new space in the Portuguese capital is almost the same as that of other businesses: two Americans, Mark Christine and Beth Hunsberger, fell in love with Lisbon and decided to open a restaurant that combines American gastronomic tradition with a few touches of Portuguese flair.
The result is Delphi Cheesesteaks, a cozy restaurant ready to welcome all kinds of customers, from family lunches to dinners with friends, in a true American diner-style experience.
A menu for everyone
The highlight, as we’ve already mentioned, is the classic Philly Cheesesteak , consisting of homemade brioche bread, 140 grams of sliced rump steak, melted cheese and caramelized onions.
But there are other options that are well worth it:
- Buffalo Chicken: grilled chicken chips with spicy buffalo sauce, melted cheese and blue cheese;
- Veggie: vegetarian alternative with eggplant, peppers, onion, celery, capers, raisins and fresh mozzarella in a sweet and sour tomato sauce.
Each of these typical American sandwiches costs €9.90 and can be accompanied by fries or salads (kale with apple or cherry tomatoes with mint), which can be even more delicious if you add one of these homemade sauces: blue cheese, salsa verde or spicy mayonnaise.
If you’ve never tried one of these sandwiches, it’s time to take a trip to the Delphi Cheesesteaks restaurant, which is becoming an increasingly popular stop in Lisbon.
