Gearo’s

I grew up with Gearo’s in the NE. When I was a kid it was the go-​to place for pizza and cheesesteaks. The quality has really gone downhill over the years. I just spent $ 27 for a dinner I couldn’t eat. I ordered delivery — an order of mozzarella slabs, a turkey club and a slice of cake. ALL were horrible. The mozzarella was cold, the cake was pretty much melted, and worst of all, the turkey club was inedible. Who effs up a turkey club? It’s three slices of bread, cut into quarters with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and turkey on EACH LEVEL. Simple! It was just three slices of bread, SOPPING WET with mayonnaise, a HUGE amount of turkey only on one slice of bread, barely any bacon and one slice of lettuce and tomato and the toast was burnt. It literally fell apart in my hands and I had to throw it away, just like I did with my $ 27.00. I called to complain and spoke to the manager, who told me he would issue me a credit for the turkey club and then hung up. Didn’t ask me my credit card number or anything. I called back two days later to ask about the credit because I didn’t see it on my debit account and I was told, ‘We meant a credit towards your next order’. Okay, what makes you think I’m going to order AGAIN after that experience with the food I already paid for? And how would I even be able to cash in that «credit» — just say I’m entitled to it? Who’s going to believe me? I talked to another manager, who took my credit card info — Gary — and he told me he would discuss it with the other manager and issue the credit. Nearly a week later and still no credit. I will never again order from Gearo’s or eat in their restaurant. Really colors my childhood memories of this place.

Always good food. Fast friendly service.
Love the fried mozzarella slabs best mozzarella sticks ever.

I don’t think I’ve actually ever been inside this place but I had pizza at my friends house which she got from here. You wouldn’t expect this place to have pizza. It was pretty good. It makes me want to check out this place and try something else.

I have been going there for years but I have never tried their hoagies… after having our usual dinner there, I decided to order a couple of hoagies to take home so we could eat later, well, I opened mine and it had very little meat on there, one very thin slice of tomato, a couple pieces of shredded lettuce and a sliver of onion… really!!! U need to do the whole hoagie, it had no oregano on it… very disappointed, I know not to buy their hoagies in the future

Went there for lunch with friends. I noticed they changed the menu since I’d been there. I ordered their Oriental Chicken Salad. The only thing Asian about it was the noodles that were in it. It also came with mandarin orange slices in it that actually tasted like they were sitting in an oven and had gone sour. The menu itself has not been updated to reflect changes except in the prices going up and a sharpie blacking out what is no longer available on the menu. About the only thing going for the restuarant right now is it’s name. I probably won’t be there again unless they get a new manager, owner or chef.

Gearo’s is one of my favorite pizzerias! A mainstay in Northeast Philadelphia for decades! Awesome pizza and other menu items. Great service and delicious food at reasonable prices. Also a good place to watch the local Philly major league games in the bar.

The food is alright. Kinda pricey. The place bugs me because their sign is literally always in capital letters. Stop yelling at me. I don’t want a monster brownie.

I received a flyer in the mail and I have ordered delivery in the past… but it had been a while since I did. I called in the order and was given the total and told it would be about 45 min. After an hour and twenty five minutes and nothing showed up… I called to check in my order. The girl on the phone told me that it just left and would be there soon… so I didn’t cancel. After another forty-​five minutes passed… I called station pizza to order some food… which showed up thirty minutes later.
My Geros food order never showed up… I’m still waiting.

Decent food, not so great service, relaxed atmosphere. My kid loves her Buffalo chicken cheesesteak so I was happy. My chicken parm sandwich was pretty tasty too. And the pizza is on point! Our waitress was very friendly but spent a good amount of our visit chatting with her co-​workers. Meanwhile we needed refills. Food was a solid 4 but service was a 3 so I’m rating Gearo’s at 3 stars. We’ll be back

We love Gearo’s. My family has eaten here for many years. The pizza is delicious. Sweet, garlic, basil, tomatoey sauce and gooey provolone/​mozzarella cheesiness. Light, fresh crust. We eat in, take out and do delivery. Eating-​in is a good experience because it’s a comfy, café environment. The hostess has been there for years and she is so sweet. She always asks if we want a booth or want to sit in the open seating area near the bar with t.v. monitors showing sports. Friendly atmosphere and nice bar with regulars, including the bartender who has been there for many years. From great burgers, pizza-​fries, veggie personal pizzas and club sandwiches, to corned beef specials and Italian hoagies, we love it all. Great Sour Apple Martini, but could be a bigger glass :) Always well made though.

Eileen was a great waitress! She was extremely accommodating, even on a busy Friday night. We did have an issue with some of our food, but she got the manager to take care of it! Thanks Eileen!
I ordered the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad wrap, which was great. My brother and mom ordered New York Strips, neither liked it, it even looked unappetizing.
Their dessert on the other hand, LOVE IT!

Been going to Gearo’s since I was a kid. Was always a big fan, mostly at their other location on Bustleton Avenue (now closed). The open location hasn’t changed in a long, long time.
The décor is old, dusty, and disgusting and the old carpet has a smell to it. Dusty fake plants abound under college pennants so old they look disgusting. A makeover is sorely needed.
The food is decent enough but it’s not enough to make me go. If the dining room was updated/​cleaned I might be more likely to dine there, but it just feels too dirty to be comfortable and enjoy,

We went tonight, we haven’t been there since the days on Bustleton Ave, well over 10 years. It wasn’t very busy for a Friday night. I must say we were pleasantly surprised. We split the mozzarella sticks as an appetizer. They are homemade and as good as I remember. My wife had the fajita salad and she was raving about it. I had a mushroom cheesesteak and it was very very good. The roll was very fresh and the fries were cooked just right. We will not wait so long to go back.

I have been ordering here for over 10 years. They always have good service and great pizza no matter if it’s dine in, take out or delivery. Today I picked up as the pizza was coming out of the oven. Ordered a large plain, small white and motz sticks. Everything was delicious and reasonably priced.

I’ve been to this place a few times and love their pizza. So my boyfriend and I went there one night for dinner, we were seated by a nice hostess and was told Jess will be right with us. So we waited watched an inning of baseball decided what we wanted to eat she never even came over to us. Three waitresses walked by us and no one said anything. Needless to say we walked out after waiting 20 minutes for someone to even say hi to us.

I have been coming here since I was a little girl (at their Bustleton location, which is now closed). Their food tastes exactly the same as it did back then. And it’s always good. So many great menu items. We always order their house salad. It’s just so fresh!!! it’s got some cheese on it, and those croutons are something special. We also always order their pizza. Their pizza is different because the cheese is under the sauce but the crust is just superior! It’s kind of crusty but not dry. We also order the fried mushrooms with horseradish sauce, And the potato skins are excellent. Service is always great. They also have good beers on tap and some craft beers and ciders. I minused one star because I didn’t really care for the veggies they put on the veggie pizza, they put a lot of roasted red peppers and green peppers, it was too acidic for me. But that was my fault for ordering a veggie pizza. Silly me trying to be healthy (ish) (Side note– pass on the veggie pizza. Get sausage or pepperoni instead.)

For every pissed off customer/​experience 7 people will here about it, for every good or happy experience only 3 will hear about it. Here is my 5 stars for gearo’s!
The pizza is awesome, I tie it with Vince’s on grant. There sandwiches my boyfriend raves about. There pasta is great for a delivery place. Overall we order from here a few times a month and I’ve always been very happy! Oh, and one more thing… they are super quick for delivery time. Keep up the awesome food and I will keep telling everyone!

Where do I begin… the «Large» pizza is barely a small. The crust is like rubber, chewy and way too thin. Sauce on the outside… who does that? Sub-​par cheese… onion rings taste nasty…“cheese fries” are frozen crinkles fries fries fake cheese sauce on the side.
This place is just yuck. Wont be going here again.

Ordered delivery pizza and it was delivered on time as estimated when we ordered. Pizza was delicious but overpriced, $ 13 for a «large» that wasn’t anywhere near a large pizza, typical medium size pizza compared to other places, and ¹⁄₃^rd of the pizza was the very thick crust. First look was different as they use a lot of sauce or put the sauce on top of some of the cheese. The sauce and the pizza were delicious though, but there are too many local pizza places to reorder from here again, definitely felt it was overpriced.

I was pleasantly surprised by this pizza place! I went here around lunch time on a Saturday and the place was pretty much empty. The décor was booths and tables and you could also sit by the bar. The menu consisted of your standard pizza restaurant menu items (pizza, sandwiches, burgers etc). We got a large half mushroom and half extra cheese pizza and it was delicious. They serve very thin crust pizza and all the ingredients tasted fresh. I would recommend going with the extra cheese option since there was not alot on the mushroom side but it was still really tasty! We also ordered fries and the brownie for dessert. Spoiler alert: the dessert was 20% brownie and 80% ice cream and whipped cream. I cant complain it was delicious and the portions were pretty large. The staff was really friendly!
