For the Car Full of HANGRY Humans

Philly Ya Belly

12432 Hwy 99, Ste. 65

Website

HELP. You've just left the Boeing Tour with a van full of screaming kids. No one has eaten in hours. You're gonna lose it any second now. It's time for GIANT Philly Cheese Steaks to settle the family down, and Philly Ya Belly is the spot. This landmark is hidden within an industrial park, on the southern border of Lynnwood and Everett.  Get real and order a classic cheesesteak with 'wiz. Notice the bun is steamed and not crusty. This is how a Philly should be.
