Famous Phil's Cheesesteaks - On University near Balducci's and Devaney's - I had a medium Philadelphia Wiz Steak Combo (Fries and Coke) for $7.50. It was ok. The fries weren't crisp. They limited re-fills on the soda. They seemed to be pinching pennies. The place looks like it's about to go out of business. The lights and electronics were off. One family was there besides me. The place seats about 40 in booths. They don't take AMEX.
Cheddar Jack's - On Aloma around Goldenrod - I had a Garbage Plate (home fries, mac and cheese, baked beans, garlic bread, hot dog and hamburger sauce) for $6. The fries were under cooked. The mac and cheese had no flavor. The baked beans had flavor. The garlic bread was poor. The hot dog (some renowned dog from the far north of New York) was ok. The hamburger sauce was a chili. It was good. I actually saved the sauce and beans and mixed it with rice the next night. A little better pairing. The place is small. It seats about 50. It looks like a little cafe. Only one other was there at 2pm. They do breakfast and dinner too. The menu was mostly comfort foods. A nice joint. Probably the best place on Earth after a night out. They could use an OPEN sign in the window coming from WP. It's hard to tell if the place is open or in business.
Jeremiah's Italian Ice - Aloma between Goldenrod and 436 - I had a Frog something (mint chocolate chip) ice mixed with vanilla ice cream. It's ok. Mixing ices and ice cream isn't really my thing. It ran $2.75 for a small (which is big). Being young and pretty certainly doesn't seem to be a deal breaker for the guy in charge of hiring servers. The place had a decent size crowd.
