Philadelphia, PA - The Philadelphia Cheesesteak can be summed up by its delicious components - a fresh roll, thinly sliced beef, grilled onions or mushrooms, and cheese. And no Philadelphia Cheesesteak is complete without Provolone, American, or the classic staple, Cheese Whiz. But where can you get a decent cheesesteak outside of Philly? We have you covered with the best cheesesteaks, but not in Philly.

3. Delaware's Best Cheesesteak
TenderBones - There are several different cheesesteak joints throughout the state of Delaware. Still, TenderBones has earned a reputation for its massive, homemade versions. The restaurant's owner, Chef Bones, personally prepares all of the food served at the shack, ensuring the quality and freshness of each bite. While TenderBones is primarily known for cheesesteaks, it also offers barbecue staples and homemade sides. However, the most popular dish at the restaurant is the 3-pound Philly cheesesteak, served in a Styrofoam container signed by the chef and numbered.
