Finding Philly Steaks in Jersey - A Feat Not for the Faint of Heart

My husband and I have been living in Jersey for the past six years.  During that time, we have lived in Hoboken for a year, West New York for five years and Old Bridge for the last couple months.  It was not until we moved to Old Bridge that we finally found a good quality Philly style steak sandwich in New Jersey.  The ones in Northern Jersey had a number of problems from being made with actual thick slabs of steak to having a roll that became soggy or was too hard.  By the time we moved to Old Bridge, we thought that all hope was lost.  We gave it one last chance though and tried the steak sandwiches at a couple different places in the area.  We have finally found a winner too!  The steak sandwiches at Luigi's in Old Bridge are in the same style as Philly steaks.  The meat is good, not greasy, and the roll is tasty.  They have definitely helped to make us feel at home in Old Bridge!
