MENU
Big Al’s features a nice selection of hot and cold sandwiches, including authentic Philly cheesesteaks, turkey hoagies, deep-fried hot dogs and rib-eye sliders. Milkshakes made with Häagen-Dazs ice cream and cheese fries also are on the menu.
ATMOSPHERE
The eatery is brightly colored and cozy, with Philadelphia sports trivia and memorabilia decorating the walls.
OUR FAVORITE FOOD/PRICE
We enjoyed our sandwiches, so it was tough to pick a favorite. My husband went with a Philly cheese-steak ($8.45 for a 9-inch) with onions and peppers, while I chose a Chicken Philly ($8.75) with grilled chicken, provolone cheese and peppers. We shared a side order of fries ($2.75). Our kids went with a kid Philly ($4.49) and chicken nuggets ($4.49).
REASON TO GO
Excellent cheesesteaks and sandwiches, and customers can watch a ballgame or two while dining.
SERVICE
Diners order at the counter, so there is no table service. Our food, though, was prepared quickly and brought to the table.
NOISE LEVEL
Hardly any. We arrived early on a Friday night, and there were few customers in the eatery.
KID FRIENDLY
Definitely. Kids’ options include chicken nuggets, turkey sandwiches and cheesesteaks. All meals are served with fries and a drink.

I didn't think I'd be getting health food here, but I was shocked at the sandwich that I got- the roll was soaked through with grease. I asked why they they put mayo on it & they told me that it was actually american cheese.
In addition, the prices are way out of line.
I will say that the staff was cool, but that's the only positive.
This is one of the better philly cheesesteaks you will find in the area unless you are a pcs authentic connoisseur extremist.
Big Al’s Steaks is a growing franchise of restaurants with four locations in South Florida, including the new Palm Beach Gardens location in Legacy Place.
