Pat's King of Steaks
Pat's King of Steaks is a popular Philadelphia cheesesteak restaurant located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Founded by Pat Olivieri in 1930, it is known for its role in the creation of the cheesesteak, a sandwich made from thinly sliced pieces of beefsteak and melted cheese in a long hoagie roll.
History
Pat Olivieri was a hot dog vendor in the 1930s when he decided to put some beef on his grill. A taxi driver noticed and asked for a steak sandwich instead of a hot dog. The taxi driver suggested that Olivieri quit making hot dogs and focus on the steak sandwiches. Olivieri opened up a shop on 9th Street and Passyunk Avenue, and Pat's King of Steaks was born.
