What people say, in short
Del Rossi's gets strong praise for its cheesesteaks, with one diner calling them the best in the city and another ranking them among the best around. The pizza also has fans, including one person who calls the crust exceptional. Views are mixed on the rest: one person finds the cheesesteaks fine but the pizza aggressively mid, another dismisses the place as not worth Michelin's attention, and a diner was refused blue cheese or ranch with a buffalo chicken pizza.
