The Philly w/ provolone. Small, $8, felt underwhelming, bread dry/chewy. Went around 3pm.
2nd visit.
The Coppola. Ridiculously overpacked with meat, and I find for $10 (2 more than a regular philly) so much better and worth the value. Could have been the time of day, this was at like 1130pm or smth.
shaved prime rib, sautéed mushrooms, onions and green peppers, hot banana peppers, house-made roasted tomato sauce and provolone.
that shit is so good i finished each one in 2 bites but too small to be worth $10 for 4...
Love how La Taqueria's blowing up. I remember when they opened back in October 2009, I went there almost every week for lunch. I guess I'm a hipster. Of food.

I really like the East Hastings location. I've been meaning to try the Cambie one but the lineup is bullshit all the time. Has it really gone downhill? I guess with most restaurants in Vancouver, they eventually come crashing down pretty fast
I do agree that the prices here are a ripoff but then again many "working class" foodstuffs in Vancouver meet that criteria anyway.

Tried this place tonight, ordered the original. The bread for the sandwich was disappointing and the beef itself was a little too rough. The sandwich itself overall was mediocre. I'm a harsh critic when it comes to cheese steak sandwiches, I've had the best ever in Philadelphia.
6.5/10, but will come back next time to try the prime rib ones.
Part of the Glowbal chain. They serve 3 types of beef. A regular which i forgot the name , PEI blue ribbon, and Snake River Wagyu.
I had the foie gras , oyster rockerfeller, and Onion soup to share with my fiance. Foie gras is good but you only get 1 piece for $19. Compare this with le crocodile at $25 for 3-4 pieces with a scallop, makes le croc a good deal. The oysters were 4 tiny oysters, wouldnt order again. Onion soup lacked richness in the broth, and the cheese was not strong enough, it was piping hot though.
Main dishes: We ordered the PEI blue ribbon rib steak 32OZ to share. Steak was really good, they include 4 sauces on the side. The jus and the green sauce were really good! I like this steak more than Hy's, Gothams, or Shoreclub. We also had the steamed spinach which was nicely seasoned with garlic. Fried mac and cheese sticks (4 pieces) was ordered as well.
Steak 9/10
Spinach 8/10
Fried mac and cheese 7/10 (Very light tasting and not rich in cheese taste like other steak houses)
Overall 8.5/10 I would definitely visit again and again. This place is loud and not like a typical upscale steak house. It's more of a night club / lounge atmosphere with great steaks
