Saw this place as we were out driving around and decided to give them a try. Was a little before 8 pm. Only a few people in line at the time. Staff were helpful when ordering.
I ordered the Cheat’s OG with added lettuce (10/10) it was cheesy, fresh, and flavorful! Was only a few bites in and I was already saying how I should’ve ordered two. I also tried the Honey Sriracha Cheat’s wings (8.5/10) they were cooked well and tasted good, but they seemed like only honey wings ?? No spice at all, which was a little disappointing. To drink, I got a Cheerwine soda; it was pretty good.
Food took about 25 mins to be made after we ordered. They have seating on the side of the building where you can watch the staff making the food which was cool. I def will be returning again, the food was too good not to!
My overall rate of experience : 9/10

Ordered a cheesesteak for delivery. I built my own cheesesteak. I have included the ingredients I added in the picture. The cheesesteak was very good. I would give it a four star but I cannot give the whole experience a four because the delivery fee was almost $20 plus you are expected to give your driver a tip. My food before everything was over $60. The wings I would say I would only give a 2 1/2 to 3 star they were a little rubbery. My food took over an hour to come and it was lukewarm not hot. The dessert was good. I will give it a four. Overall I will give this restaurant 3 1/2 stars. I just think it’s a little overpriced for the type of food they serve.

This is the type of place that will never have me making the change to eat healthier. If I were ever up for execution, this would be my final meal. Hands down!!!! We orders this tonight. I choose the build your own steak, add grilled onion, peppers and banana pepper. Oh and don’t forget the whiz. It’s messy, filling and absolutely delicious!!!!!!!!!!! My son got the Italian hoagie, and my husband got the OG. We all agreed this had been our favorite meal since moving to NC 3 years ago. Whatever you guys are doing, never change!!!

I ordered the Truffle Cheesesteak with Provolone cheese and fries. It was delicious and very filling. I really liked the sesame seed bread. The prices were decent and the staff were very friendly.

Finally made it to try the highly rated Cheats. After hearing all of the hype, we decided to take a family member we had in town for the holidays. The entire experience was a complete disappointment. Our order took almost one hour for three sandwiches. I can understand waiting for this highly publicized restaurant, however there was only one other group of 3 waiting ahead of us. Upon receiving their food, they realized that the seeded rolls were unavailable, one of the main reasons we and them chose this cheesesteak. We ordered the OG, Chicken Caesar and we did a build your own. The chicken Caesar look nothing like any of the photos that we had seen. It was mediocre, underwhelming slop. We chose to add banana peppers to one of the sandwiches and upon biting into the sandwich, I had an entire pepper in my mouth that wasn’t cut or cleaned properly. It completely turned me off of my meal. The entire experience was a miss from the very beginning, not to mention outrageously expensive. I’d have to look at the exact receipt but it was somewhere around $70 for three sandwiches and an order of fries. Highly anticipated Cheats ended up being a complete bust. Extremely disappointing an frustrating considering the cost.

Love the cheese steaks but I WISH they could just come in a basket or even cardboard container. I get wrapping and bagging togo orders, but by the time you get your sandwich wrapped and bagged and handed to you, the bread is soggy. I can’t imagine how soggy they’d be if you waited till you got home to eat them.
Also… I absolutely loved the Turkey Bacon Jam Hoagie that was on the menu for a very short time before being replaced with this new turkey melt, but I’m Not a fan.

I have had cheats several times and have loved It each time, but this time I was disappointed! I have left much better reviews before so I promise I’m not someone who writes a review only if I’m disappointed. I tried a new sandwich today, their chicken cutlet Caesar salad sandwich. I know the new changes just rolled out so let me start by saying the seeded roll is perfect, however, I was expecting a thin, juicy, and crispy chicken cutlet and that is not what I got. I opened up the sandwich to find two pitiful over fried chicken tenders instead… this is not what is advertised or even shown in pictures on the menu/instagram etc.
Also, the Caesar salad part was very minimal! I wanted the Caesar coated romaine to be overflowing on the sandwich and It was not. I wouldn’t order this again… especially not at almost $20. Sticking with the cheesesteaks from here on out. Just disappointed overall.

Last night, my wife and I tried Cheat’s Cheesesteaks for the first time, and overall, it was a great experience! We ordered two large sandwiches, but honestly, one would have been enough to share—my eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach.
There are a few picnic tables outside, but this is just a walk up place. And everything was hot and cooked fresh and pretty fast considering the line, but honestly, the guy who took our order wasn’t overly friendly.
The bread was a standout: soft, flavorful, and sturdy enough to hold all the fillings without falling apart. Speaking of fillings, they were generous with the steak—plenty of it and perfectly cooked. The cheese on the classic sandwich was decent, but next time, we’ll opt for American cheese for a simpler, creamier taste. The onions added great flavor to the original classic, though there were almost too many for my liking.
We also split a large fry, which was more than enough to share. However, I wasn’t impressed with the ketchup—it was an off-brand packet that lacked flavor. The fries themselves were decent, but a bit pricey, and the $2 charge for a small cup of cheese sauce felt steep.
While the sandwiches were fairly priced considering the quality and quantity of ingredients, the overall meal felt a little expensive, partly because we over-ordered. Still, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and plan to return, with a few adjustments to our order.

I ordered the Diablo cheesesteak and seasoned fries through the app, and I will say the pickup experience was smooth — the order was ready right when I arrived, which I appreciated.
The sandwich itself was cooked well and the ingredients were fresh. That said, I personally wouldn’t order the Diablo again. The peppers overpowered the overall flavor and made it harder to enjoy the beef, cheese, and bread combination. It wasn’t bad — just not balanced in my opinion.
My bigger concern is pricing. At $19, the cheesesteak feels a bit overpriced. I think a $15 price point would feel more in line with the portion and overall experience. The fries were good, but the serving size was smaller than expected for the cost. For comparison, places like Five Guys are more generous with their fry portions, and that adds to the value perception.
Overall, solid preparation and convenient service — but I’d likely try a different sandwich next time and would love to see better value for the price.

I came to cheat’s… order two subs with beyond meat one completely vegan !! i’m singing dancing waiting for my food for 10/15 minutes with no other orders in front of mine. The cashier came to the window and said “oh we out of vegan cheese… what other cheese you want” I said Im Vegan showed how disappointed it was to have waiting that long & paid $50 for food they don’t have. She did nothing to accommodate me. The manager didn’t even come to try to solve the issues. I told them make it with no cheese… after she just keep looking at me with no solve to their issue involving my order. She just handed me my bag with no apology another guest was at the window trying to speak to her and she just closed it on her. I said yeah they don’t have great service here. She said I see that !! Super disappointing I will NOT be returning ! I feel like I got CHEATED !
